Editorial Review for Fat Mo's Burgers – by Jim Myers
The Scene
A meaty reminder that the American dream is alive and well, Fat Mo's two locations epitomize value and service. The Mo is short for Mohammad Karimy, an Iranian immigrant who fled his homeland in the '70s. In '91, he added his truncated name to a storefront on Murfreesboro Road and started making burgers the old-fashioned way. Customers don't mind the wait once they sink their chops into his monolithic all-American sandwiches.
The Food
Some of Mo's burgers are so big, they can be measured in pounds, not ounces. If you're hungry enough to eat something the size of your steering wheel, they're willing to accommodate. Add a bounty of spicy, curly cut fries and a barrel of soda, and you can live out of your car for days. There are also smaller burgers for those with more modest appetites.

Frankly, I don’t see what all the hype is about. The burgers are huge, no doubt about that, but they’re dry as a popcorn flatulation and the fries are limp. And at Fat Mo’s, they use some kind of spice I can’t identify that’s really weird and makes everything taste funky. I’ve tried to place it and all I can come up with is a mixture of paprika and somebody’s feet. And it’s on everything, too.
Pros: Lots of fat and meat
Cons: Tastes like dirt.

Burger was over cooked, dry and mealy seemed to be totally devoid of any seasoning. I might have just been on a bad night, but the burger was so bad I doubt I will give them another chance
