"It's much better to live rich than to die rich." View Website Dinners Tues-Sat 5pm-10:00pm Lunch M-F /Brunch Weekends Full-Service Banquet Room An eating and drinking establishment whose past lives on. The Fat Lady (her alias of course) ran the Wharf's busiest brothel in the 1880's. All that remains is her picture and a philosophy... At The Fat Lady you'll step back in time inside our 1884 Victorian. Eye catching Tiffany lamps, beveled glass doors, bentwood chairs, beautiful stained and leaded glass signs and other delightful colorful collectibles will take you to a fantasy world back in time.

I visited back in 2007, Four other Navy shipmates, and myself met in Oakland for a reunion, hadn't seen each other in 37 years, we stayed in the Jack London square area for the weekend, and visited the fat lady for cocktails on Saturday afternoon. After a while the whole place was on to why we were there, and we actually met a few people from my home the Boston area. The owner and the bartender... more

While there's no real fat lady, this is a nice little restaurant that serves American cuisine. The service is kind of a toss up--sometimes everyone is super friendly, and other times they rush you through your meal and make you wait a long time. Other than that, excellent food!

You have to love the name. My parents and their friends have been patrons of this great little restaurant for years. Some of my friends and I went here one night for cocktails as we had free time before our movie started. It is very close to Jack London Cinemas. We met the owner he was a really nice man. We made small talk and he then gave a round on the house.
