This resto really hits the nail when it comes to preparing meat. I had a good time with friends when we decided to dine here as the place was clean and the food was riddiculously good.
I thoroughly enjoyed the meat platter as the meat served were prepared to perfection. You want smoky and juicy? Pick this one. Not to mention, the variety of sauces to choose from.
There’s also this mashed potato smothered in cheese and bacon. Ohmahgod! It tasted like heaven on earth. I am such a big cheese and bacon fan so I am quite picky when it comes to dishes involving these ingredients. This dish was really good and definitely a must try.
The other food we had were also great. For the dessert, I really loved the smores. Simple dish but really good. They also have this bacon milkshake which was new to my ears. Not a big fan of it though but something for someone who wants a bit of adventure. My friends loved the milkshake. One said it was like a breakfast pancake on a cup.
Overall, great experience and I will definitely come back.
From South to North, it’s worth it to drop by and eat these tastielicious meals of fat daddys smokehouse. The place is big and spacious. Great interiors, indeed! I love the lights and the wall designs. Plus the service was great and staff were accommodating.
Their food are very generous in servings. And here are the best meals I tasted:
Hot Pork Poppers (PHP175) - Thinly-sliced and deep-fried pork belly coated with a homemade BBQ rub, served with Piedmont sauce. These are crunchy and one of my favorites. Not salty, and nice to pair with a cold beer.
Crispy Fried Pickles (PHP185)- deep-fried sliced dill pickles cooked in a panko and corn crust, served with an Alabama BBQ sauce. It’s kinda sour but tasty.
Buttermilk Fried Livers (PHP210) Deep-fried chicken livers marinated in buttermilk, coated with a homemade BBQ rub, and served with Piedmont sauce and an Alabama BBQ sauce. This is one of the best! Superb! Love the vinegar sauce.
Jera’s Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos (Half PHP330 / Whole PHP600)- very generous it is. Layers of BBQ nachos, smoked pulled pork, smoked bacon, salsa, and jalapenos, all drizzled with a homemade cheese sauce, BBQ sauce, and Alabama BBQ sauce. So cheesy! And also i’m good even if it doesn’t have any toppings. So inlove with this!
Smoked Meat Platter (PHP2,400)
Consists of the following:
Smoked Hot Links
Smoked Pulled Pork Shoulder
Smoked Beef Brisket
Smoked Chicken BBQ
Smoked Pork Ribs
Chiquito’s Grilled Corn
Bacon and Chives Muffin
Sesame Coleslaw
4 servings of Plain Rice
This meal is perfect for family and barkada. So yummy and definitely tasty! I would absolutely recommend this to my friends and family.
And they have the best dessert ever! Bacon and S’mores Dip (PHP250) Semi-sweet chocolate ganache mixed with smoked bacon bits, latered with melted marshmallows and served with graham crackers. This dish is best enjoyed hot before the chocolate hardens.
You should come and visit them at: WHERE TO FIND: U.P. Town Center, Katipunan, Quezon City.
so I came all the way from Baguio, just so I could try this place out. And guess what! it was all worth the travel, hustle & bustle! please try their food, aside from the delicious overloaded nachos and deep fried onion rings, they prepared on some items on the menu exclusively extravagant! Im serious. the smoked meat platter is to die for! they always make sure to have it nicely smoked in a far aways smoking tube just to be able to put all the flavors in together. I swear, it's really good! just so with their homemade bbq sauce!!! they also prepared on a very unique dish which is unbelievably good! it's their deep fried liver. I dunno bout you but I would def love to have some of those again! ���� go check out the place yourself and try not to miss out on their decadent desserts and milkshakes! yahooooo!!!! by: theeatgurl ���
Their Hot Mess (mashed potato, pulled pork and bacon) and Mac and Cheese were the bomb!!! Both were just 170php/each too. Not a fond of livers, but their appetizer buttermilk fried livers tasted like chicharon. Meat galore ��� finish them off with Bacon S'mores Dip (good for sharing). The marshmallows had a crunchy top and soft texture inside, combined with hot fudge chocolate and graham crackers-- you're in heaven.
Grabe, sulit! All the food are for sharing with an on-the-budget price point. Definitely a place you can hangout (with some drinks on the side �) with friends and family.
One of the best smoked meats in town! Here's what I love about this place.
1. Courteous Servers
2. Big portions, meaning SULIT sa price
3. MASARAP. So far, I loved everything that I ate. I even ate liver and other things that I don't normally eat. So kudos sa chef nila. Will definitely come back pag nadayo uli ng UP Town (medyo malayo lang sa amin, sana magkaron na ng branch sa South)
We had the nachos and the meat platter with ribs and pulled pork etc... so good... we'll surely be back...
We will always go back for the nachos! Instead of ground beef, it has pulled pork and bacon. Yup, bacon! It has jalapeños too which I love in my nachos. The serving is huge. Their burgers are great, too. I had Big Bird (chicken) and my daughter had Big Daddy's. We couldn't finish our burgers as much as we want to because they're big. The tomato soup and grilled cheese is a must-try.
Bang for the buck ribs paired with great ambiance and service! I’ll definitely be back for more! Oh and make room for desserts!!!
BEST RIBS EVER <3 <3 <3 The meat platter is worth every peso. Can't wait to dine in UP Town Center very very soon!!!
Loved the prompt service. Great meals. Absolutely sumptuous salmon. I would highly recommend Fat Daddy's. Thank you.

The food here is awesome. Literally the best grilled sausage I have ever tasted! Portions are good for the price. The BBQ sauce is also very good. After the first time I ate here, I had to go back after a few days. Haha
Halos every week na kaming kumakain dito ng jowa ko and it never fails to amaze us. Also kilala na kami nung isang waitress. Hahaha. Grabe talaga. Napanaginipan ko pa to kagabi sa sobrang sarap.
For dinner my boyfriend and I decided to get Fat Daddy’s cause, in his words, he was feeling “meat-y” I ordered the hungry daddy as he ordered the Smokehouse Mafia. I got a bite of his (just because I wanted to 💁♀️) and I can 100% say mine tasted so much better. If I were to go back again, I’d probably get a BUNCH of dishes for share and rice, the buttermilk liver WAS AMAZING and to die for, “hot mess” and Mac and cheese were drool worthy. Definitely a place I’d go back to!!! 7.5/10
The ambiance is good. Staff and crew were accomodating. Fast service. Foods are great and very delicious. Worth it for the cosy price. Recommended to others to visit.
With its 4.7 rating in Zomato, I didn’t doubt but trust the foodies in this app. I was surprised about their affordable prices for a steakhouse, quality serving with big portions! We ordered half nachos and several set meals. You can choose from dirty rice, plain rice, or mashed potato! I wasn’t able to take photos of everything we ate, but this is my personal favorite! It’s pulled pork dipped in sweet honey + bbq sauce with mixed veggies and dirty rice on the side. Loved it, and I came out of the place super full!
Man, I really loooove American style baby back ribs and I'd go all the way to the North just to taste their well-known and considered one of the best R.I.B.S.!
For the appetizers, we had the Hot Pork Poppers, Jera's Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos, and Chef Pat's Ultimate Cheese Dip. I definitely love their Nachos, and the servings for half is really HUUUGEEE and overloaded with toppings!! The best I've tried in QC, so far. Meanwhile, the Cheese Dip with Tortilla chips also caught my attention since I love cheesy goodness. The Pork Poppers tastes like salt and pepper chicharon!
For the mains, a Whole Smoked Pork Ribs and Smoked Beef Brisket paired with Hot Mess and Chiquito's Grilled Corn was presented. I nearly fainted when I smelled the aroma the of the pork ribs and I just can't explain how I'm going crazyyy over it! The Smoked Pork Ribs was so tender and perfectly cooked, that it's not gummy and falls of the bones (drools). Same with the Beef Brisket!
The corn, hot mess (mashed potato) and steamed rice are definitely a must pair with their meats.
And more mains! We got to try their Chicken Wings: Honey BBQ, Honey Mustard, Salted Egg and Honey Sriracha! I love their Salted Egg and Honey BBQ Wings. No words, just love. I don't like their mustard flavor though, it tasted weird to me.
And lastly for the desserts, we had the caramel drizzled banana pudding, and bacon & smores dip!
As you all might not know, Smores is one of my favorite desserts and my love for smores is indescribable. I'm so full, I didn't even got a chance to finish the smores! Huhuhu
Comfort food are things we take refuge to when we’re carving for hearty meals that can relieve the stress that we encounter on the daily basis or for when we want to have a little taste of home. They usually evoke some nostalgic feeling and a little warmth to our hearts and tummies. It’s the food we eat without the guilt and tell people to step off because you deserve this.
After giving ourselves a break from eating meat this Holy Week, I think we deserve to crave for it. And our cravings could be satisfied with those succulent and tender tasty meats by a well-known smokehouse - the Fat Daddy's Smokehouse. Located in the ground floor of UP Town Center, Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse offers American style barbecue that first originated in the owners' backyard in Marikina. Now, they are quite popular on their wide range of smoky meats, burgers, tacos, starters, and even desserts.
been dreamin of beef brisket, pulled pork, and pork ribs in one platter, all for my selfish self?! good thing all mah smoked meat fantasies are here at FAT DADDY’s. kaya Diliman darlings, let’s pig out na ng very very light.
had the chance to sample a whole lotta smoked meats at fat daddy’s and my fave was the ribs! oh my gosh - charred, fork tender, nummy and out of this world good, like i can eat it w/ only a few chews then swallow then repeat. haha.
for the sides and samplers, you have to go get the hot pork poppers and shredded corn: pork chips that goes so well w/ that vinegar, amazeballs and the pop of sweetness from the corn kernels when you down their smokeless meats, insanely complementary!
jera’s ultimate nachos are a scene stealer ‘coz it’s got pulled pork and bacon on top + that drizzle of cheese, aaah! another reason to scream is that the half order is one mountain of an order, so get ready to be in awe!
the beef brisket was good and soft and the fat was a melt-in-your-mouth experience, its just, it lost its shine when the ribs got dibs on my palate. same goes w/ the chicken wings- yet i have to admit, my inclination for the salted egg chix wings is still there and it was a toothsome for me.
as for desserts, both of the pudding and the smores were equally delish. the pudding, on the contrary, was laborious to fork down, twas a lil dry- had it not been for the ice cream on top, then this dish would not have been touched. the smores- gone in 60, uh prolly 180 seconds, haha.
One word. Masarap. Great place for comfort food with your family and friends. Food serving is great for sharing. Service and ambiance were great 💕
Everything here is amazing! You will need extra rice sa laki ng serving nila. I hope they would soon open a branch in Trinoma or SM Megamall.
Excellent meat that wont hurt your pocket. Their menu is amazing and I am well impressed. They have a good variety of high quality food, and I highly recommend this place if you want the best value for your money. There is also plenty of space with fairly comfortable seating. The service is good. Pork or beef - they are all amazing. Even their burger is superb in quality and portion. The only thing I didnt really like was the quality of the coleslaw - it was quite dry and dull. Otherwise everything was excellent. Would come back, would highlh recommend!
Great food! Ordered The Hungry Daddy and Smoked Salmon. Both huge serving! Their food is quite pricey but totally worth it! Good thing we tried to eat here.
Everything here is sooo good! You can’t go wrong with their smoked barbecue plates (love the chicken and pulled pork). They have bottles of their barbecue sauce and mustard available on the tables so you can enjoy it to your liking. Their buttermilk fried chicken is a revelation - crispy, juicy, flavorful. It’s served with a side of your choice, gravy, hot honey, and a corn muffin. Yum! (It would be 5 stars if their menu were a bit easier to read. It was all over the place.)
I’ve been hearing people rave about this place for a long time now, so finally decided to give it a try last week.
The chicken component of Hungry Daddy was very well seasoned and was not dry (but not juicy either). Despite its flakiness, the pulled pork went very well with the chicken, balancing its flavor. The Texas Dirty rice was also a good choice to complement meats (would highly recommend!)
For the You Got Porked Set Meal, the Hotlink (sausage) was mediocre taste-wise, and was also really dry. The mashed potato side we got for this one was very typical in terms of taste. If you like a textured mashed potato, don’t order this one!
The Smoked Beef Brisket was very tender albeit lacking flavor. Good thing they had AMAZINGLY DELICIOUS condiments (Original and spicy BBQ sauce, and Mustard sauce) that went very well with ANY of their meats. All the dishes had complimentary coleslaw, which tasted very bland. The carrots were tasted kind of old too.
Overall, the experience was good. Kind of pricey for the service size, but would most likely go back because of their sauces!
We tried their Daddy's Burger and Hot Daddy's Burger (the spicy one). Their hamburger patty is very juicy and the chili from Hot Daddy's Burger were tasty. We will definitely their other burgers. ♥
AMBIANCE:
the ambiance is great very casual pero sosyal hahaha.
FOOD:
The steak is very good with their home made sauce. Excellent! The mashed potato is a must try as well
SERVICE:
The servers are also welcoming and it doesn’t took that long pra maserve ung order namin.
Food is great. Price is not that expensive. Your Php 1000.00 can feed 2-3 persons 👌 We've tried two of their best sellers, Smokehouse Mafia and Hungry Daddy.

I had the best impression of Fat daddy’s because of the FMU. I recall that I made a list 3 years back of restos I’d like to try around BGC and if I’m not mistaken this was included in the said list. However, upon checking I saw that that branch was no longer operating. Going all the way north wasn’t that bad at all considering the very tasty cheese dip and smores dip; definitely landed a spot on my favorite dish list. The chicken variety was spicy for me, so its recommended for spicy food lovers.
Lucky to be invited last January 25 (Friday) at the one of the pioneering Smokehouse in the country !
This is my first time to attend a bloggers event at Fat Daddy's Smokehouse at UP Town Center.
The Fat Daddy's Team gave us a warm welcome . One by one they serve their delectable dishes to our table .
For starters , we had this Buttermilk Fried Livers. Some don't like eating Livers but for me I loved Livers! It's a deep fried chicken livers marinated in buttermilk, coated with their homemade bbq rub, served with piedmont sauce ,and Alabama bbq sauce . Price is 210 pesos and promise you won't notice that your eating a chicken liver , it tasted so good especially when you put it on the dip.
Then we have another starters , which is the Jera's ultimate pulled pork and bacon nachos . It has layers of bbq nachos smoked pulled pork, smoked bacon ,salsa and jalapeños all drizzled with their homemade cheese sauce ,bbq sauce and Alabama bbq sauce for 330 (half) and 600 pesos for whole . Cheesy people would loved it like I do 🧀😊.
And for our last starters ,Chef Pat's Ultimate Cheese Dip. Melted Cheddar and Mozzarella cheese mixed with beef and onions served with tortilla chips for 250 pesos .
Now Fat Daddy's now offer Chicken Wings Meal🐔. They have Honey Barbecue, Salted and Egg, Honey Mustard, Honey Sriracha, and Classic Buffalo which are both spicy 🌶.
And for Fat Daddy's latest offer that was perfect for families and barkadas, the Smoked Meat Platter. For only 2,400 pesos , it includes Smoked Hot Links, Smoked Pull Pork Shoulder,Smoked Beef Brisket, Smoked Chicken BBQ,Smoked Pork Ribs plus sidings like Chiquitos Grilled Corn ,Bacon and Chives muffin, sesame coleslaw and four plain rice , I feel so full after eating it . Worth the penny .
Had their refreshing orange juice after my heavy meal. It was so good 👍
The most exciting part was the dessert of course . We had two . First was the Pecan Pie.Buttery pastry crusted pie filled with a mixture of eggyolk, brown sugar , chopped pecans ,baked to perfection and topped with roasted pecans for only 250 pesos .
And lastly the Bacon 🥓 and S'mores Dip. This was unique . Semi sweet chocolate ganache mixed with smoked bacon bits layered with melted marshmallows, served with graham crackers. S'mores fans will definitely go for this at Fat Daddy's Smokehouse!
Overall Experience: My heart ❣ is full for this opportunity to be invited here , thanks Mam Alma for inviting us and to Far Daddy's for being such a generous host . My stomach is full because the food has good proportions and not too pricey , good food with great old bbq taste . This is the restaurant where you can get value of every penny you spend .

Operating Hours : Mon-Thurs 11am to 10pm and Friday to Sunday 10am to 11pm
I was enticed by Fried And Prejudice's post on Instagram, luckily last Sunday's traffic was light due to the Pacqiao-Broner fight. It was 5:30PM when we entered Fat Daddy's Smokehouse, the place is not yet crowded. A server who seemed to be on a break immediately stood up and took the menu and led us to our table before endorsing us to the server on duty.
We ordered their Php399.00 Chicken Wings Combo with 6-pcs. Chicken Wings, 2 cups of rice, 2 glasses of iced tea (which we upgraded to bottomless for an additional Php45.00), coleslaw salad and mayo dip. We also tried their Smoked Bacon fot Php280.00 that also comes with a cup of Coleslaw Salad.
The food was great! The Chicken was really tasty and juicy. The Smoked Bacon was also good, it tasted like Majestic Ham, for me it was good but my ward likes honey-cured bacon-sweet stuff.
My only complaint was, it took some time to get our bill done. But aside from that, this place is highly recommended.
If you like big portions and smoked meats, this place is for you. Special mention to the nachos, their serving could feed probably 15 people!
Very cozy place to eat out, super delicious food and very accommodating staff!!! Worth it of almost a perfect 5 stars!!! Will be going back here soon!!! 😊
Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse offers a plethora of American and Mexican fusion dishes. Their generous portions even come with affordable prices, which allow you to order a wide selection without denting your wallet. Check their menu, and you will find a clear constant in their offerings: meat. There’s no dish that doesn’t include this flavorful ingredient—even their dessert. You’re meant to go wild here in this restaurant—propriety be damned— as you gorge on smoky-flavored dishes and get down and dirty.
Appetizers
1. Jera’s Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos (PHP330 for Half, PHP600 for Whole)
This mountain of seasoned tortilla chips come loaded with tons of melted cheese, smoky pulled pork and strips of homemade bacon. Tangy barbecue sauce, paired with a creamy sauce, are drizzled generously all over. Here at Fat Daddy’s, they make sure that each layer gets the same meaty goodness—unlike the usual nachos where you don’t get anything anymore after attacking the first layer. If you enjoy a bit of heat, dig deep and you may find some slices of jalapenos nestled in between. Once you take a bite out of this flavor bomb, it’s hard to stop. Trust me!
2. Onion Rings (PHP210)
Dipped in a buttermilk batter and deep fried to a lovely golden brown, these bites are different from the usual because they come coated in a barbecue rub that gives it so much more flavor. Enjoy it with your choice of creamy tartar sauce, or sweet and sour ketchup.
3. Hot Pork Poppers (PHP175)
Fat Daddy uses thin slices of liempo— coated in their barbecue rub— which they deep-fry and serve with a Piedmont sauce. It’s a mix of crunchy and chewy textures with a welcoming burst of sourness from the apple cider base they use for the sauce.
4. Buttermilk Fried Livers (PHP210)
Just like all other deep-fried dishes, this dish features bites of chicken liver coated in a barbecue rub before being soaked in a buttermilk batter and deep-fried to a crispy golden brown. Enjoy this crunchy on the outside, chewy on the inside bites with creamy mayo or tangy barbecue sauce. I personally prefer it with the barbecue sauce though.
Main Courses
Tacos
Both tacos feature two pieces of soft tortilla with a blend of flavorful fillings.
1. Pulled Pork Tacos (PHP230)
The Pulled Pork taco uses smoky shredded pork as its base, paired with creamy coleslaw and corn. A mix of chipotle mayo and barbecue sauce is drizzled all over to tie the different ingredients together. I prefer the pulled pork variant because I just love the bold flavors they use!
2. Crispy Fish Tacos (PHP280)
On the other hand, the Crispy Fish taco features deep fried beer-battered fish fillet, some crisp cilantro leaves, coleslaw and a creamy garlic sauce. If you’re a pescatarian, I would definitely recommend this seafood option for you!
Set Meals
Fat Daddy’s set dishes include various combinations of smoked and cured meats that go well with side dishes like coleslaw and pickles, plus your choice of mashed potatoes, white rice or Texas dirty rice— a spiced rice that’s loaded with tons of flavor. Here are the options that you can choose from:
The Hungry Daddy: Pulled Pork and Smoked Chicken BBQ (PHP310)
You Got Porked: Pulled Pork and Smoked Sausage (PHP310)
Sausages and Co: Smoked Sausage and Smoked Chicken BBQ (PHP370)
Dibs on Ribs: Smoked Pork Ribs and Smoked Sausage (PHP480)
Smokehouse Mafia: Smoked Beef Brisket and Smoked Pork Ribs (PHP640)
Smoked Meat Platter (PHP2,400)
If you’re looking for a sample platter that gives you the best of everything Fat Daddy has to offer, I recommend getting this Meat Platter. It includes all your smoked pork favorites, made for sharing. Slather their homemade barbecue sauce all over and enjoy!
Smoked Meats and Side Dishes include:
Sausages
Pulled Pork
Beef Brisket
Chicken BBQ
Pork Ribs
½ of Chiquito’s Grilled Corn
Bacon and Chives Muffin
Sesame Coleslaw
4 Servings of Plain Rice
Chicken (₱245 each)
🍗 Honey Sriracha: for those who like things hot! These chicken wings comes in a spicy glaze that leaves a lingering heat, tapered with a slight sweetness. It's oriental-style Buffalo Wings that come with a creamy aioli dip.
🍗 Honey Barbecue: perfect for sweet tooths like me! This flavor features Fat Daddy's famous homemade sauce— tangy, salty and all— but with a honeyed sweetness that takes away the slight spiciness that it normally comes with.
🍗 Salted Egg: paying homage to Singapore's shiok, these wings come in a generous coating of salted egg powder that is creamy, rich and salty. And don't you worry— it's not spicy at all!
Side Dishes
1. Chiquito’s Grilled Corn (PHP135)
Chiquito’s Grilled Corn features two pieces of grilled corn on a cob with chipotle mayo and bits of elote cheese slathered all around it. You get a mix of sweet and creamy flavors, with a touch of sharpness from the cheese.
2. Mac and Cheese
This childhood classic is something you surely want to try! It includes elbow macaroni topped with melted mozzarella and cheddar cheese, all of which are cooked in bacon fat to give it a rich meatiness unlike the usual creamy variants. It even comes topped with bacon, as you’d expect Fat Daddy to do. They must put meat everywhere!
Dessert
1. Bacon and S’mores Dip
Graham crackers that you dip into gooey melted chocolate topped with toasted marshmallows sounds heavenly. But Fat Daddy adds a twist in the form of bacon! Yes, you can find bacon on top, and even inside the chocolate! Not only do you get an added chewiness, but you also get salty and smoky flavors that cut across the sweetness. Pro tip: dip the slice of bacon in the chocolate. You’ll thank me for it later.
2. Caramel Drizzled Banana Pudding
This dessert features hard on the outside, soft in the inside cubes of bread put together with milk, eggs and fresh bananas. A scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream sits on top, with a drizzle of caramel sauce for added sweetness. I recommend getting this to cap off a lovely meal.
Holy smokes! This will be a biased review for one of my go to places for anything smoked! I already tried their original Marikina branch, and it was a feast of glory.
What we ordered:
Buttermilk fried livers
Jera's ultimate pulled pork and bacon nachos
Smoked meat platter
Smokehouse mafia
Hot mess
The good:
Just a whiff when entering the restaurant already excited my first sense and got my taste buds anticipating. For the appetizer, the fried livers are a must try as it gives this opposing textures of the inside and the outside, with a "pulutan" kind of vibe. The nachos were a tad overwhelming since there were a lot of meat involved. The smoked meat platter was more than adequate for our group, the brisket and the chicken was sumptuous and tender. The hot mess was the restaurant's version of mac and cheese but with bacon and mashed potato, it can be a little filling and can overpower some of the main dishes.
The bad:
The smoked ribs were a little dry or oversmoked for me, I like my ribs a little soft and tender.
The ugly:
There was no ugly, and there will never be one.
Overall:
To wrap up it all up, fat daddy's is must try for everyone interested in ribs and smoked meat. This is the only time that I say that smoking is good for you.
i love the staff here. y'all deserve a pat in the back!
as for the food-
hot mess - 5/5
mac n cheese - 4/5
beef brisket - 3/5
ribs - 5/5
the brisket was dry sooooooo :/ :)
Love the cheese dip! Not too salty and has lots of meat
The set meals are all good. We ordered the you got porked and dibs on ribs.
Both are sulit for the price!
Good value for money. Definitely worth 5 ⭐️s! We ordered the Fried Chicken Caesar Salad, BBQ Chop w/ Apple Bacon Jam and Bourbon Glaze, Smokehouse Mafia and sides of Mac and Cheese and Shredded Corn. Everything was delicious and each dish was food for at least 2 to 3 persons. Place was clean, servers were attentive. Overall it was a pleasant experience.
The food is great. A little expensive, but if you're a fan of everything bacon and cheese, this is the place that you're looking for (even some of their desserts have bacon!)
I was hesitant to dine at this place at first 'coz it seems to be not for people with food restrictions. I'd say I'm glad I did.
I found myself devouring the barbeque pulled pork salad. It wasn't oily nor salty and not all lettuce ('coz a lot of restos stuff salads with lettuce 🙊)
As for the ribs, I found it to be rather salty. Maybe they could make it friendlier for everyone especially that this is a good place to dine with family (e.g. grandparents who watch their salt intake) with such spacious arrangement.
For desserts, loved the cajeta cake & pineapple-carrot cake. The sweetness was just right for me. In Filipino, di nakakaumay.
Oh! Get their nachos! Serving is good for the whole family! So cheesy too! 😋 last, chicken wings too please! Not oily and the flavor is well absorbed by the meat.
Fat Daddy's have excellent smoked meats, barbecues and deep fried specialties good for family Sunday brunch to your Barkada get-together.
What to order:
Hot Pork Poppers - Php175 - deep-fried thinly sliced pork belly. Easy favorite!
Buttermilk Fried Livers - Php210 - chicken liver marinated in buttermilk and deep fried. Perfect appetizer!
Chef Pat's Ultimate Cheese Dip - Php250 - melted cheddar and mozzarella with beef and onions. Served with tortilla chips. Addicting!
Cajeta Cheesecake - Php155 - light and creamy. My favorite Fat Daddy's dessert.
Insider Tip:
Fat Daddy's has a Holiday Feast Platter good for 4 "big eaters". The bundle consists of Smoked Ham, Smoked Pork Ribs, Roasted Chicken, 6 pieces Salted Egg Chicken Wings, barbecue Pulled Pork Cobb Salad, Plain Rice, 2 slices of Chocolate Cake, 4 glasses of Iced Tea and 2 extra sides. Price Php2,699.

There’s something so primal about grilling food, particularly meat. Harking back to cavemen days when it was discovered that cooking in an open flame makes it more tender and taste better, grilling has now become an advanced study in itself, with specialized tools and techniques to satisfy the most discriminating tastes among grilled food fanatics.
Dined in with high expectations and wasn’t disappointed at all! I celebrated my birthday here together with my family and all of us are really satisfied (burp) with their ridiculous serving of Smoked Meat Platter! Sadly we are unable to post for the cam due to high meat consumption—no pun intended. Highly recommended and would go back for another round of meaty goodness some day🤭🤤
If you are looking for a place to have a cheat day and you are in UP Town Center, Fat Daddy's Smokehouse should be at the top of the list.
Aside from its straight-forward ambiance that can invite a mall goer to have lunch, seeing those mouth-watering photos at the windows will make you go hungry and want some for yourself.
Ambiance - 5.0/5.0
As mentioned, the ambiance is really straight-forward and its like you bbhear the owners talk "eat with us! Come hungry, leave really really full until the next meal" (just kidding but read more of my review because I will justify that phrase all through this review). I also love how photogenic the place is all over and not to mention, you can definitely take a photo of your food without the common issues -- shadows, overexposure and etc.
Service - 5.0/5.0
The servers are quick to respond and for me, the serving of food (probably a 10 minute wait or a little longer) justifies the taste and quality of your order.
Food - 5.0/5.0
I will highlight my favorites:
Appetizers:
Buttermilk Fried Livers
- not a fan of livers at all BUT I really enjoyed this dish. However, a heads-up, eat it while its hot (tolerable tenperature) because the taste of liver becomes stronger as its becoming colder.
Jera's Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos (Half)
- the Nachos are tasty on its own but if you add the generous toppings? Really good in a sense that the Pulled Pork is not oily and at the same time it balances all the sauces at the nachos.
Hot Pork Poppers
- it is really crispy and you can eat it either as is or with rice. So good!
MAINS:
We got the Holiday set that composes of the following meats:
Ham, Buffalo Wings and Smoked Ribs
The Ham was really tender that I did greet myself "Merry Christmas". The Buffalo Wings is smoking hot (in my level of tolerance) but really a good level of spicyness that does not make your taste buds numb. The Smoked Ribs was the star for me! The smokiness will make you eat more ribs.
CAKES:
Cajeta Cheesecake
- my favorite among all the cakes, its not sweet but creamy and not flaky. Also, it reminds me of Leche Flan.
The other cakes are:
Spicy Chocolate Cake, Chocolate Cake and Pineapple Carrot Cake. All worth the calories because they are all good. Not too sweet and all flavorful.
One of the most sulit restaurants in UP Town and I’m saying that as someone that’s in UP Town almost every day. Huge servings, flavorful meats, and nice ambience! Would go back
In case you didn't know yet, Fat Daddy's Smokehouse offers a lot of Smoked Meat, Flavored Wings, Different Starters and Burgers!
You wouldn't have enough of their Starters like Hot pork poppers, Crispy fried pickles P185, Bacon Crisps & Ultimate pull pork and Bacon Nachos in half for only P330. The serving is generous and perfect when with your friends or family. Include this Chef's Pat ultimate cheese dip only at P250 and enjoy an ultimate cheese experience!
I am also overwhelmed with the Smoke Meat Platter for P2400. With 5 kinds of smoked meat, your family will surely feast on this! It has Smoked Pulled Pork, Hot links, Beef Brisket , Chicken BBQ
and Pork Ribs!
It also includes Sidings such as Grilled Corn,
Muffin, Sesame Coleslaw with 4 plain cup of rice.
Don't worry about your kids for they have Set Plates, Kids Plates, Set Meals, desserts & Milkshakes!!!
For the Wings which I really love, the Sriracha, Salted Egg, Classic Buffalo stands out. Soy Chicken Wings & Parmesan are also available.
(4.5/5) After your first time in this place, the only fitting reaction is: WHY THE F IS NO ONE TALKING ABOUT THIS PLACE? The near-perfect rating in Zomato is so freaking well-deserved!
The resto prides itself in having perfected the preparation of their meaty dishes, and you're sure to believe them when you take your first bite. Had the Hungry Daddy (PHP340 w service charge), which had pulled pork and slices of roasted chicken, dirty rice and coleslaw. The pork was divine in texture, and the chicken was just stellar in every way possible. What's remarkable was even the two sidings were taking the spotlight! You'll be stuffed even if you didn't go for their big time group meals!
Please please please, give this resto a shot if you find yourself unwilling to queue for Frankie's or Silantro.
Nice to MEAT you, Fat Daddy's Smokehouse!
This restaurant is a haven for carnivores -- and even for people with sweet tooth!
It was my first time at Fat Daddy's Smokehouse and all my preconceived notions about this restaurant are that it would offer only BBQ and smoked meats. But I was in for a surprise...
During a bloggers event last Saturday (October 20), food was simply overflowing! If you ask me, I am not actually a big fan of BBQ. I like it enough, I will eat it when it's served in front of me, but it is not really something that I would crave for.
To my sheer delight, Fat Daddy's Smokehouse isn't just about smoked meats. It offers a lot of other great-tasting dishes that even a non-BBQ fan will definitely enjoy staying there.
Here are the stuff that we tried:
STARTERS AND MAINS:
🌽 Jera's Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos
This was nacho-usual nachos! 😂 It was a mountain of nachos! Every layer was filled with the glorious cheese sauce and other ingredients, not just on the top of nachos. It was a bit spicy, which I liked. It was crowned with deep-fried bacon strips, along with other toppings.
🍖 Smoked Meat Platter (₱2400)
The centerpiece of our table! It is a combination of Fat Daddy's Smokehouse's best-selling meats:
▫ Smoked Hot Links
▫ Smoked Pulled Pork Shoulder
▫ Smoked Beef Brisket
▫ Smoked Chicken BBQ
▫ Smoked Pork Ribs
▫ Grilled Corn
▫ Muffins
The Pulled Pork Shoulder and the sausages were my most favorite from this platter.
Part of the reason why I'm not a big BBQ fan is the sweet BBQ sauce. Good thing Fat Daddy's Smokehouse doesn't serve its BBQ and smoked meats that are drenched with sauce, unlike at other BBQ joints I have ever been to. The sauce was served separately. But I tried the meats, still without the sauce, in order to really taste them in with their original seasoning.
They tasted so good! And the meats were super tender -- all the staff's hard work and long hours in making them tender and flavorful were handsomely paid off, with the diners happy and satisfied as they were munching on them.
🍗 Flavored wings:
▫ Classic Buffalo wings
▫ Sriracha
▫ Salted Egg
▫ Soy Honey BBQ
I liked them all but I had a predilection for spicy things, so I chose the classic Buffalo wings and Sriracha. The Sriracha one had a nice combination of of heat and sweetness.
🔸Buttermilk Fried Livers:
One of my favorites from this eat-up! Marinated in buttermilk, these chicken livers are then coated with their own BBQ rub, deep-fried, and then served with piedmont sauce and Alabama BBQ sauce. Great for snacking, or even as "ulam."
🐷 Hot Pork Poppers
Oh my God, this is cholesterol on a plate. Hahahaha. Crispy and crunchy partly because the pork belly is thinly sliced. Great with vinegar dip.
🔸Crispy Fried Pickles
Dill pickles coated with panko (the one that is used in tempura) and corn crust, deep-fried and then served with Alabama BBQ sauce. The pickle itself was sour, and the sauce was also a bit sour, so it was almost like sourness overkill. The pickle easily separated from the breading which had become some sort of a sheath or something. Kind of weird, but I could eat this.
🧀 Chef Pat's Ultimate Cheese Dip
Melted cheddar and mozzarella, mixed with beef and onion, and served with tortilla chips. Every cheesehead (like me) would surely go gaga over this! One of my favorites.
DESSERTS:
🍫 Bacon and S'mores Dip - One of my top favorites. Combine them altogether and you'll get that sweet-dark chocolatey-salty goodness in your palate.
🔸Pecan Pie - This was okay, though the ice cream had just melted by the time I tasted this. But if my tummy weren't full, I would have surely enjoyed this more.
🍌 Caramel-drizzled Banana Pudding - I also liked this one because of the pleasant combination of soft and nutty texture.
🔸Peach Cobbler - I didn't get to try this one, but some said it was too sweet.
Cakes
🍶 Cajeta Cake - This was like dulce de leche cake. I liked this.
🍫 Chocolate Cake - Typical chocolate cake
🌶 Spicy Chocolate Cake - At first, I wasn't able to discern how spicy it was, but the longer the cake lingered inside my mouth and throat, the more I noticed the heat. It's a Mexican classic combination of chocolate and chilies, and it was perfectly captured in this cake.
🍍Pineapple Carrot Cake - We kind of took a jab on this cake, because we didn't want to ruin its pretty carrot decor. LOL. But taste-waste, it was really good. It was sweet, but not too sweet. The pineapple and carrot went well together in this cake.
Drink:
Orange Juice - My own order. I loved at how freshly it was squeezed. It teemed with wonderful orange pulps.
It was an eventful Saturday afternoon filled with picture-takings and of course, eating and enjoying Fat Daddy's Smokehouse's overflowing food.
Thank you Johnbunag and to Ms. Alma for the invite! I appreciated it deeply. 🙏😊🙏
We went here because it has a 4.9 rating and we were not disappointed because everything that we ordered were served immediately and were exceptional. One of the best tasting ribs that we've tried! Their mustard and barbecue sauces were one of a kind! I highly recommend this restaurant.
The food in the pictures are:
Dibs on ribs
Mac and cheese
You got porked
Hot mess
It pays off to space BBQ meals, because we hadn't had smoked ribs in a long time and we enjoyed our meal here.
We ordered in small portions to sample more things - pork links, pulled pork, and their smoked pork ribs.
The pork ribs were beautiful. Expertly butchered, flavoursome rub, perfect timing on the smoking. The fat to meat ratio was good (not too fatty) , the ribs easily detached from the meat.
The pork links were perhaps too longganisa-like for me - the grind could be finer, maybe a bit more fat in the stuffing - but good nonetheless.
The pulled pork was nice, but less fresh than i hoped.
Great in house sauces round out the offering.
I really plan to visit their original Marikina branch. It's a nice trip and I feel it'll be an experience.
Never been so much happy for a restaurant that has a menu full of Yummy food! I don’t have favourites because all of them are literally delicious.
Here’s the list of the yummy food that I ate:
Hot pork poppers 175
Buttermilk fried livers 210
Jera's ultimate pulled pork and bacon nachos (half) 330
Chef's Pat ultimate Cheese dip 250
nacho crusted chiekcn poutine 220
Hot mess 170
Crispy fish tacos 280
Smoked pork ribs whole 1750
Smoked chicken BBQ 220
Bacon Mac n cheese poppers 195
For me they are really affordable and generous on their servings, I just hope soon they will put up a branch in Morato/Timog. 🤗
I have decided to separate my reviews with the sweets|desserts because it was a feast and the main course deserved it’s own highlights. Fat Daddy’s Smoke House is one of the pioneering smokehouse in Ph. It’s ambience was really cozy, inviting and easy to find. Is Sweetness your weakness? Well Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse is the place to be. For my top picked (warning: this is so addicting!) hahahaha | Caramel Popcorn Milkshake, its not too sweet for me the pop corn made it balanced due to it lil hjiusaltiness and so creamy. | We also got Smokey Maple Bacon Milkshake. | I love you S’mores than you know hahaha of course Bacon n’ S’mores Dip. Having Choco ganache layeres with baked marshmallow & graham crackers. | Peacan Pie this buttery pastry crusted pie filled with an egg yolk sugar and bits of peacan plus roastes peanuts. | Peach Cobbler and Caramel Drizzled Banana Pudding is also my favorite it’s moist freshly baked banana pudding drizzled with caramel sauce topped with Vanilla ice cream so yum! ❤️
So for the second Part is the main cours of Fat Daddy’s Smoke House

It's sunny Saturday morning, I was confident that there will be no traffic going to UP Town Center. I'm late again. Upon entering the place it has rustic them interior. I think it can accommodate around 20-40pax.
To start we had:
Buttermilk Fried Livers. deep fried chicken livers maintained in buttermilk, coated with our homemade bbq rub, served with piedmont sauce and Alabama bbq sauce.
Jera's Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos. Layers of bbq nachos, smoked pork, smoked bacon, salsa, and jalapenos, all drizzled with our homemade cheese sauce, bbq sauce, and Alabama bbq sauce.
Chef's Pat Ultimate Cheese Dip. Melted cheddar and mozzarella cheese mixed with beef and onions served with tortilla chips.
Bacon Mac and Cheese Poppers. Deep-fried bacon mac and cheese balls.Chicken Wings (Honey BBQ, Honey Mustard, Salted Egg, Honey Sriracha, Classic Buffalo) I like the wings because it's still crispy even when it's already cold.
Smoked Pork Ribs
Smoked Meat Platter
Smoked Hot Links
Smoked Pulled Pork Shoulders
Smoked Beef Brisket
Smoked Chicken BBQ
Smoked Pork Ribs and special sides
Pecan Pie. Buttery pastry crusted pie filled with an egg yolk, brown sugar, and chopped pecans baked to perfection and topped with roasted peanuts.
Peach Cobbler. Bakes peach slides with a scoop of vanilla ice cream drizzled with caramel sauce.
Caramel Drizzled Banana Pudding. a mix of butter bread milk eggs and fresh banana baked and topped with a scoop of homemade vanilla ice cream and drizzled with caramel sauce.
Bacon and S'Mores Dip. semi-sweet chocolate ganache mixed with smoked bacon bits layered with melted marshmallows served with graham crackers.
Caramel Popcorn Milkshake. SWEEEET but creamy vanilla Milkshake.Smokey Maple Bacon Milkshake
This place is for family and friends. You'll never go out empty.
I was so glad to be back in the North, but it's my first time to be at UP Town Center. Fat Daddy's Smokehouse is located at the mall's Phase One.
I was expecting a more masculine looking venue, mainly because of the smokehouse theme, but what welcomed me was spacious interiors, with quirky old Americana stuff on shelves and fun pork and beef murals on the walls. I knew there and then I was in for a treat.
And it was a smorgasbord of a treat! First off the menu are their must-try appetizers. My favorite would be the °Buttermilk Fried Livers (P210), which were plated in a cute small kawali. I like eating liver, mainly because my mom used to tell me it's good for the blood and all that. I enjoyed this one because it breathes a new life to something most people wouldn't eat. The fried livers were crunchy, quite similar to karaage, and are best eaten dipped in vinegar or in mayo.
There was also °Chef Pat's Ultimate Cheese dip (P250). This was heaven in a dip! The maple bacon strips on top punctuates the salty cheese dip with a sweet note. Best with chips and fries, of course!
Other appetizers include °Jera's Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos (half P330/whole P600) and the cute round °Bacon Mac N Cheese Poppers (P195).
For the mains, I was so excited for the °Chicken Wings because they have 6 flavors, yessss 6 -- honey BBQ, honey mustard, salted egg , honey sriracha and the classic Buffalo. The best for me so far was the classic Buffalo and the Honey Sriracha. For P245, you get huge pieces of chicken wings, perfect for sharing!
Of course, the star of the afternoon were the °Smoked Pork Ribs (whole P1750) and the Smoked Meat Platter. For P2400, you get smoked meats that will surely fill up everyone in your group. They say it's good for 4 but you could actually feed more than 4 with this platter. Enjoy smoked hot links, pulled pork shoulder, beef brisket, chicken bbq, and pork ribs. This comes with sidings like Chiquito's grilled corn, bacon and chives muffin, sesame coleslaw, plus 4 plain rice.
To end this lunch on a sweet note, we had °Pecan pie (P250), °Peach Cobbler (P250) and some °Caramel-drizzled Banana Pudding (P170). But my favorite would be the °Bacon and S'mores Dip (P250). The marshmallows were perfectly torched, giving the dip a bit more texture.
They also served milkshakes, and very different flavored milkshakes at that. What intrigued me was the °Smokey Maple Bacon milkshake (P195). It has strips of smokey bacon on top, and surprisingly, it kinda works with the sweetness of the milkshakes. The °Caramel Popcorn one (P195) was too sweet for me, so I had to pass.
Fat Daddy's prides itself in the delicious smoked flavor of their grilled meats. Everything was tender, and has that full bodied taste brought by the expert smokehouse quality. However, I was quite keen on getting a few more flavors on the different meats, just to distinguish them. Maybe a few herbs on the roasted chicken or a different taste for the brisket. Their chef had perfected the cook for all the meats from the pork shoulder to the chicken, but I would have liked a different dimension to the flavor profile of the smokey grilled meats.
Fat Daddy's is such a great choice for dining out with the family, or the barkada. Their big servings are spot on in satiating big appetites and big crowds, really worth the trip to UPTC!
Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse is a second branch located in UP Town Center. It has a modern industrial design with loads of yellow lights that makes the place look warm and homey. This restaurant started as a small concept restaurant. Their family definitely loves to eat and they wanted to share what they’ve had in the US.
Great value for money. Bring your family or barkada here to feed your hunger. Their smoked ribs is so juicy and you can really taste the smokey flavor. Triple death burger is soooo good. They have new addition in the menu now, their chicken wings - I loved the Sriracha wings! Do not forget to try their nachos, desserts and fresh juices. Will definitely treat my family and barkada here again.
deliciousness are long hours of work spent to reach the most rewarding taste and tenderness it can get. Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse has perfected this. meticulous process of cooking pork spare ribs from their years of being in the. business. “Time and temperature are two things that we give much attention
Fall-off-the-bone deliciousness and satisfying meat dishes await you in Fat Daddy's Smokehouse. They have a rich array of smoked chicken wings, beef brisket, pork ribs. They also have milkshakes and special desserts.
Jera's Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos (1/2 serving) (P330.00) - generous serving of nachos topped with strips of bacon

Chef's Pat Ultimate Cheese Dip (P250.00) - for the cheese lovers, here's for you.
Chicken Wings (Honey BBQ, Honey Mustard, Salted Egg, Honey Sriracha, Classic Buffalo) (P245.00) - This is one of my favorites. I might not taste some of the flavors but their chicken wings are good!! It was tender and it remained crispy. The flavor is not just on the skin, it's on the meat as well.
Smokes Pork Ribs (P1,750.00/whole) - fall-off-the-bone and super tender pork ribs. I can enjoy it with the rice.

I guess this one is for me. I need protein-packed meals. They are right. The smokey flavor and tenderness remained and it was good.

Pecan Pie (P250.00)
Peach Cobbler (P250.00)
Caramel Drizzled Banana Pudding (P170.00)
Bacon and S'Mores Dip (P250.00)
I seriously enjoyed all of the desserts: sweet and hot!
We also had Caramel Popcorn Milkshake (P195.00) - caramel lovers will like this
Smokey Maple Bacon Milkshake (P195.00) - this one didn't disappoint!
I will definitely recommend this to my friends/family and I'm sure I'll visit again here (or in other branches).

This branch opened it’s doors on November last year. Since I don’t live near that area, I haven’t tried eating here yet. But now that I got to, Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse is now part of my go-to places to eat with my family and friends.
The dish that caught my attention was their smoked ribs. They’re so juicy and hard to resist. The reason behind this is Fat Daddy’s utmost importance to time and temperature when cooking their pork spare ribs.
After a long hours of working or studying, we all deserve to reward ourselves right? I must say, Fat Daddy’s is the answer!
If you are a meat lover or want/crave for smoked meat, I highly recommend Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse!

Staffs were accomodating and friendly. Everything was so good! Giving it a 5/5! Definitely be back! 😍
Fat Daddy's Smokehouse is not your average restaurant when it comes to the cooking of smoked meats.
We’ve tried lots of their dishes but our favourites would be the Smoked Pork Ribs, Chicken wings in BBQ, Bacon & S’mores Dip, and Caramel Popcorn Milkshake.
Their Smoked Pork Ribs are so tender & juicy. Moreover, you can eat it as it is and you don’t even need to dip it into any sauce since they are so flavourful. Just what you expect when the meat is slowly cooked on low temperature for 10 hours straight.
The Chicken Wings in BBQ flavour had the right amount of savoury-sweet goodness unlike in other restaurants I’ve tried.
For desserts, I enjoyed their Bacon & S’mores Dip and their Caramel Popcorn Milkshake the best. They are just so addicting for me.
Overall, I enjoyed my food and would definitely come back again.
Smoked meal platter is more than enough for 5 people starving. Giving it 12/10 💗💗💗 hot pork poppers is extra special because of their homemade vinegar💗💗💗
This resto really hits the nail when it comes to preparing meat. I had a good time with friends when we decided to dine here as the place was clean and the food was riddiculously good.
I thoroughly enjoyed the meat platter as the meat served were prepared to perfection. You want smoky and juicy? Pick this one. Not to mention, the variety of sauces to choose from.
There’s also this mashed potato smothered in cheese and bacon (Hot Mess). Ohmahgod! It tasted like heaven on earth. I am such a big cheese and bacon fan so I am quite picky when it comes to dishes involving these ingredients. This dish was really good and definitely a must try.
The other food we had were also great. For the dessert, I really loved the smores. Simple dish but really good. They also have this bacon milkshake which was new to my ears. Not a big fan of it though but something for someone who wants a bit of adventure. My friends loved the milkshake. One said it was like a breakfast pancake on a cup.
Overall, great experience and I will definitely come back.
We ordered the Meat Platter (we were a group of 3) and it did not disappoint. The meat variations are authentic! Their ribs are the best I’ve tasted in the whole Metro and the price is worth every centavo. The service is also top notch and the wait staff will even make sure your glasses are always filled with water and they would even suggest how to mix your sauces. I’m definitely going back. Piece of advice though for first timers: slow down on the rice. You need every inch of your stomach for those ribs, in case you do order the meat platter!

Smoked House in Texas feels. Wholesome Carnivore Lunch! 👌🏽 #SmokedBeefBrisket #SmokeHouseMafia #DibsOnRibs #HotPorkPoppers #CreamyClamChowder #TexasDirtyRoce
I’m giving Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse a rating of 5 because I honestly enjoyed my dining experience there.
From starters to desserts, there was not a meal that I didn’t like! The following are the dishes that were served to us. Those with a ❤️ are my favorites!
Hot Pork Poppers PHP 175
These are crispy pork thinly sliced into bite-size. Tasty!
Buttermilk Fried Livers PHP 210 ❤️
I am not a fan of chicken livers but this dish is an exception. It’s actually good that I ate more of this than pork poppers! It comes with two types of dips which really complemented the taste of the fried livers. And it became one of my fave dishes in Fat Daddy’s!
Jera’s Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos (Half) PHP 330
Not the ordinary nachos which are only topped with meat/cheese. You can find more of the pulled pork, bacon on the layers nacho layers underneath.
Chef Pat’s Ultimate Cheese Dip PHP 250 ❤️
This cheese dip is cheesy but it didn’t have any “umay” factor.
Nacho Crusted Chicken Poutine PHP 220
A poutine is a dish consisting of french fries and cheese curds topped with gravy. Fat Daddy’s version has nacho-crusted chicken pieces. I love this combo of chicken and fries!
Hot Mess PHP 170 ❤️
This one’s their mashed potato topped with cheese sauce and bacon. Yes, this one’s so delicious! I didn’t mind finishing a serving up!
Crispy Fish Tacos PHP 280 ❤️
I also had the pleasure of eating Fat Daddy’s delicious Fish Tacos! I love the taste of the veggies included in the taco which made it even more tasty! The pita bread is not hard too.
Smoked Pork Ribs (Whole) PHP 1750 ❤️
Now here’s “the star of the show”! The fall-off-the-bone smoked pork ribs! Very delicious! You gotta put barbecue sauce on it to enjoy eating even more!
Smoked Chicken Barbecue PHP 220 ❤️
This is as good as their smoked pork ribs! I tasted the smoke flavor very well!
Bacon Mac n Cheese Poppers PHP 195
These are good starters but might fill your tummy right away.
Bacon S’mores Dip PHP 250 ❤️
Just a plain smore’s dip might easily sate your appetite for desserts but this Bacon S’mores won’t! The bacon’s flavor and saltiness balances with the smore’s! Bacon and Smore’s - great combination!
Carrot & Orange Juice ❤️
I just enjoyed the fresh carrot and orange juice! It’s so refreshing!

Fat Daddy's is humble Smokehouse originated from Marikina is a product of hardwork of siblings who happened to taste the American Style Barbeque from their travel to Southern part of the US. Expect to find the unique and savory flavor you're looking for a barbeque from their smokes pork ribs, beef brisket and chicken. As of this writing, they have 2 branches one on Marikina and the ones I tried in Quezon City.
There's a homey ambiance upon entering their branch in Katipunan. You can see bottles of different sauces which they also sell separately. The price range can range from P500 to P1000 for 1 to 2 person. Since this is an American Inspired restaurant, you can expect good serving on foods you'll order here.
Starters:
Hot Pork Poppers - this is a deep fried thinly sliced pork belly on barbeque rub with pied mont sauce on the side. I liked how crunchy this one is. Seems like I'm eating a better tasting Chicharon. 😍😍😍😍
Buttermilk Fried Livers - another deep fried chicken liver marinated in buttermilk coated with pied mont and alabama barbeque sauce. Loved this one. You can't almost taste the liver the buttermilk is really good! 😍😍😍😍😍
Jera's Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos (Half) - layers of barbeque nachos, smoked pulled pork, smoked bacon, salsa and Jalapeño. Drizzled with Alabama Sauce, Barbecue Sauce and homemade Cheese Sauce. 😍😍😍😍
Chef's Pat Ultimate Cheese Dip - Melted Cheddar and Mozzarella Cheese mixed with beef and onions and served with tortilla chips. The cheese dip is amazing. Need to eat it once served because you'll have a hard time scooping it, but the combination of cheddar and mozzarell with beef is fantastic! 😍😍😍😍
Nacho Crusted Chicken Poutine - a barbeque nacho crusted chicken fingers and house fries, topped with gravy and mozzarella. This is a new dish that's worth a try!😍😍😍😍
Sides:
Bacon Mac and Cheese Poppers - This mac and cheese combo have traces of bacon that added a meaty flavor to your usual mac and cheese. Made with cheddar and mozzarella mac and cheese rendered in bacon fat. 😍😍😍😍
Hot Mess - layered mashed potatoes, cheddar cheese, pulled pork and bacon. So yes, I indulged myself with this treat. I love their mashed potato! 😍😍😍😍
Crispy Fish Tacos - deep fried beer battered mahi mahi cutlets, cilantro, coleslaw and corn salsa drizzled with garlic sauce with two soft tortilla tacos. I liked the mahi mahi taste much. The garlic sauce is a good addition to the flavor. 😍😍😍😍
From the Smoker:
Smoked Pork Ribs (whole) - dry rubbed St. Louis cut pork ribs, slow smoked for 8 hours grilled to finish. Served with dill pickles and coleslaw. This one is totally a star. The smokey taste is legit and the flavor is awesome. The meat melts in your mouth. 😍😍😍😍😍
Smoked Chicken BBQ - overnight brinned chicken thigh fillet, smoked for 4 hours and grilled to finish. Served with dill pickles and coleslaw. This one is worth a try too. An upscale of your usual go-to chicken barbeque available elsewhere. 😍😍😍
Overall, my Fat Daddy's experience is very promising. The serving is legit for its price and also you won't be disappointed with the taste. As of this writing they only have Marikina and Quezon City branch, if ever you're curious about visit them now.

“ You had me at 4.9 rating.”
We decided to try Fat Daddy’s ‘cause of its almost perfect rating and of course those good reviews I read about this resto.
Food - really good. Bacon had a really big serving. I’m not really a bacon lover but their version of bacon made me love Bacon. (Puro Bacon?haha!) Pork ribs is awesome. For brisket it tastes good but I prefer the brisket of M.Q.
Mac and cheese is the best! And don’t forget to try their mashed potato. All in all happy tummy!
Staffs are attentive and helpful.
Our experience is great!
Fat Daddy's Smokehouse is a Southern USA-inspired smokehouse and barbeque restaurant serving pork ribs, smoked beef brisket and burgers.

Would come back and recommend to my friends! Good food and definitely have value for money.
Calling all meat lovers, Fat Daddy's Smokehouse is now open in UP Town Center!
If you're someone who loves eating meat, then you'll be glad to know that the Marikina favorite has opened its doors in Quezon City!
It was my first time at Fat Daddy's so I wasn't really sure what to expect. I just knew that we were going to be having a lot of meat that afternoon, so naturally, I skipped breakfast to save space for it. Haha!
First impressions upon seeing the menu is that it's definitely a place for big groups, barkadas in particular. They have a lot of bar chow like the Buttermilk Fried Livers, Onion Rings, Fried Chitlins (deep fried pork intestines), Hot Pork Poppers, and Crispy Fried Pickles.
If you ask me where can you taste the best smoke house in the metro, I would definitely answer Fat Daddy's in an instant. I'm not an expert when it comes to smoked meat, but I really enjoyed everything I tasted from their menu. These are my favorites. Baked Mac n Cheese Poppers (Php 195.00). These poppers are fried to perfection. Crunchy on the outside and moist, gooey cheese on the inside, perfect appetizer.
So me and my bf was trying to check keto friendly restos and was amazed by the reviews of Fat Daddys. Nonetheless, we headed to UP Town Mall to try their specialties.
We ordered the ff:
1. Dibs on ribs- smoked ribs with hotlinks (1 1/2 sausage) I love the hotlinks! It’s well seasoned but not too salty. The ribs was delicious mouthwatering and kuya gave us a tip to enjoy it with mustard. It was an awesome pair!
2. Chef pat’s ultimate cheese dip- it has toasted bread and chips with beef plus melted cheese. It was also good but it was served at the middle of our meal. It was supposed to be an appetizer so weren’t able to consume it all. The staff was nice to give us extra coleslaw since we didn’t want the rice.
3. Fried chicken cesar salad- the salad was so fresh! It was actually served first and since we’re starving we digged it up 🤪 It was a better version of salads I’ve tasted so far. Plus the chicken bits were crispy not soaked with the dressing.
4. I’m not sure of the name of the other item I ordered but somehow it’s like chili con carne style with pita. It’s delish as well but the cheese dip tastes like it.
I love their customer service here. The staff explained to us how we could have better experience with our food. They even suggested to try their own chili sauce. I just hope they could improve their serving, I mean the order of serving the food. Appetizer first then the main dish with the salad. Overall, it was a great experience and value for the money 😊
Warm and friendly service. They were able to take are orders and serve the food within 15-20 minutes. The food tastes great and the servings are generous. Will definitely come back! 😊
Actual rating: 4.9
Wala akong masabi! First, service was great. I asked how much I’ll pay more if I want more cheese on my Daddy’s Burger. They gladly said they’ll get it done for free. By the way, I asked them to remove veggies of my burger cause I don’t like em together.
For appetizer, I had fried chicken liver. It was good! The dips were appropriate, vinegar and mayo. Papalit-palit para hindi magsawa. Liver was seasoned well, on the salty end, crunchy and crispy, it was not overcooked too. Perfect appetizer, healthy pa (generally).
The Daddy’s Burger was the best. Buns were perfectly toasted and crunchy. The patties were flavorful and juicy. Almost perfectly cooked at medium. The taste was so good! Blended perfectly with the cheeses and other sauce. The bacon was on the thicker cut, which shows it’s not one of the cheap-type ones. Might be the best burger I’ve ever eaten in my recent life.
Hands down.
Will definitely come back for their other dishes.
I first tried Fat Daddy’s in their branch in BGC. Unfortunately, the place is already closed and it’s a sad day for Burgos Circle restaurant lovers. So when we saw a branch in UP Town Center, we immediately went for it. We waited a bit before we were given a table since the place is jam-packed with diners that night.
We ordered the Father’s Day Treat and every component there was amazing, especially the buttermilk fried chicken. It was the best! We also got the Pecan Pie for dessert and it was divine.
We’ll definitely be back for more.
A haven for meat lovers and meat enthusiasts, Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse in UP Town Center is the place to be if you want to satisfy the carnivore in you. We started our protein adventure with Jera’s Ultimate Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos. This is not your ordinary nachos. It is packed full of pulled pork, bacon, cheese and barbecue sauce. It is layers and layers of meaty and cheesy goodness.
My friends and I often attend foodie meetups around Pasig or BGC because that's proximal from our place. This time, we headed north to visit something worth going to. We were invited to try out Fat Daddy's Smokehouse which is located on the ground floor of UP Town Center, Katipunan Avenue, Diliman, Quezon City. The place is cozy and they sell bottles of their condiments as well as some take-home delicacies and other merchandise.

I usually say this at the end of my reviews, but we are going back. Soon. This place is great. We'll stick to the meat and milkshakes next time
We ordered:
1. Dibs on ribs- with mashed potato, the ribs were not as juicy as I like but they were tasty
2. Smokehouse Mafia- with dirty rice, the meat on this plate was more tender and less dry
3. Deep fried pickles- they kinda fall apart quite easily
4. Macaroni and cheese- I wasn't a big fan of this.
5. Strawberry Milkshake- doesn't look like much, but this is one of the best milkshakes I've tried.
Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse in UP Town Centre has been around for quite some time now. It got good reviews and I was so delighted when we had the chance to finally try it. Fat Daddys Smoke House. Sauce in Fat Daddys. For our starters, we had the Crispy Fried Pickles for Php186. It’s made with dill pickle strips coated with panko and corn crust breading, and then deep fried. Those who are not quite a fan of pickles because of its sourness might find this actually really good since the frying process alleviates the sour taste a bit. It is also served with Alabama barbecue sauce.
NEW FAV SMOKEHOUSE!!!
Food is 5/5. Serving was huge, a legit bang for the buck! We had Smoked Pulled Pork Shoulder, Beef Brisket, Mac and Cheese, and Texas Dirty Rice which we ALL enjoyed!
🍖 Smoked Pulled Pork Shoulder and Beef Brisket were both scrumptious! It had that smokey goodness deep within, and it was reaally tender. Best eaten with their in- house bbq sauce!
🧀 Mac and Cheese displayed that satisfying cheese pull! The crunchy bacon on top plus that mellow, perfectly- cooked mac & cheese was heaven in every bite!
🍚 Texas Dirty Rice was already flavorful on its own. I like that they put a real generous serving of meat in it.
DEFINITELY GOING BACK! 👅 Staff were accommodating and service was fast! They have a selection of 3 sauces on the table— mustard, spicy bbq, original bbq. Everything was SO good i could eat it with rice on its own! But my fav was the spicy bbq one. 🤗
Fat Daddy’s Smokehouse in UPTC is one of the best smokehouses you can find in Quezon City! Most of their dishes, and even desserts, have pieces of animal meat.

It has been a while since I last made a review and Fat Daddy's Smokehouse is a good comeback. I was so happy to be invited and have a taste of their dishes. It is an actual place for meat lover and alike. I am thrilled to share with you my honest views and opinions. Fist of all the, the interiors look so good. It has this indoor but "outdoor" feels. The design is more like the outside dining experience. I love the festival like light bulbs and their brick walls. Location is also good because it is near the main entrance and their driveway where you can be dropped off by cabs. I classify it as a casual, family dining restaurant. Although, they still have light alcoholic beverages.
TOP 3 DISHES THAT MEAT LOVERS WILL LIKE:
1. Pulled Pork and Bacon Nachos:
I like this one because it triggers the meat lover in me. I love that it is loaded with meat and is Layered with cheese and chips. This may be a great starter or just a normal "pika- pika" while having some beer on a nice Friday night. You have options to have it half or whole.
2. Smoked Meat Platter:
I have to warn you. This is one of the best platter of meat I have ever tasted. I specifically like their ribs. I was told that it is marinated over a certain that you can still taste the mix of flavors down to the bone. It is good for 5-6 persons and can be a family's main dish.
3. Bacon and Smores Dip;
This is quite surprising because just when you thought that it's just an ordinary torched mallows and dip, it is not. The rich chocolate dip has tiny bits of bacon that helped balance the sweetness. I personally like it and will recommend it over and over.
Serving was generous. Place was definitely cozy. You're gonna have a hard time picking what to eat from the menu. Definitely going to go back!
