About
In Tremont, Fat Cats has been a neighborhood staple for nearly 25 years, earning a nod from Bon Appetit as one of the best in the country. The menu roams across American, Asian, French, and fusion influences, with seafood, tapas, and a popular Sunday brunch. It's a mixed crowd, gay and straight, drawn by craft beer, outdoor seating, and that view of downtown Cleveland.
Reservations are smart here, especially for a window table or a summer patio spot. The bar area is also pleasant if tables are full. Regulars know to order the Basil Lemonade when basil is fresh from the garden. Hours vary slightly by day, with 10pm closes on Fridays and Saturdays.
Fat Cats is located in the Tremont neighborhood of Cleveland, known for its historic architecture and growing dining scene.

From the community
“Great food and view!”
This is one of my top restaurants in Cleveland. Definitely reserve a table near a window for the downtown view, or grab a patio seat in warm weather, but the bar area is also quite pleasant. The food is excellent, and during summer, don't miss the Basil Lemonade, which uses fresh-picked basil.
