Burgers are good but Chicken sandwich is Wonderful!!

by joeyisabella

I love eating at the Fatted Calf. I usually order their Chicken Sandwich. It comes with lettuce, tomato, a small packet of mayo and that soft cheddar cheese. It's wonderful. It's a fairly big sandwich and I usually eat it all. It's so very jucy that I usually have juice dripping down my hand. It's the best chicken sandwich that I've ever had.

Their burgers are okay, BUT -I am not a burger person. Just saying that I've eaten one is saying a whole lot. My husband LOVES their burgers.

Also, they have secret menu items. Their fried mushrooms are yummy!!

• Pros: chicken sandwich is great, if you sign up on their e-club you get coupons

Nestled in the heart of Clayton, a casual place to grab a great meal. Eventhough it is counter service, it is friendly and accomodating to the needs of their customers.

• Pros: Location

Best burger on the planet!

by rwboyd

2006 marks the Fatted Calf's 40th anniversary in the same building on Bemiston Ave., never once even so much as remodeled to the best of my knowledge, although in the beginning they had only the tall tables with little pots of ketchup mixed with relish on them. There were at one time Fatted Calf restaurants in Boston and Chicago (I know, because I lived in those places and ate at them) and perhaps elsewhere. Now the original one in St. Louis is the only one left, as far as I know. There is precious little left in St. Louis that I remember from that far back and what remains is mostly greatly changed. The Fatted Calf is a treasure to be cherished! I've never found a burger I liked better and I've lived all over the country.

• Pros: The best burger on the planet, at a fair price, in a great environment. Friendly staff
• Cons: Big crowds and a long line at lunch time on weekdays.
