    Really enjoyed our visit for lunch today. As we walked in i noticed the restaurant was very clean and organized. We were there for the pizza and salad buffet which was pretty impressive for a smaller restaurant. (see pics) Also with the buffet you get a glass to help yourself at the drink area. Plenty of pop to choose from along with sweet & unsweetened ice tea. I enjoy getting my own drink because I can control how much ice goes into the glass.

    All the pizzas looked great and the ones I tried tasted just as good. Every employee was very friendly and plates were removed quite often.

    Something kinda cool that I noticed was the chalk board wall....... It's a chalk board that is a wall you can write on.

    Besides the restaurant being clean, the restrooms were clean as well.

    Highly recommend this place as I know I'll be back!!!!!

    You can't beat a place that has pizza buffet. But, the quality of their pizza is far and beyond what you would typically expect from a buffet line.

    Fat Jimmy's has been in the Louisville area for quite a while. I used to frequent their locations in the Highlands, Frankfort Avenue, and Anchorage. Their staff is personable and very receptive to your orders.

    Now that they use some of the delivery services, I can get their pizza right to my door in Middletown. Their pizza is always fresh and tasty. I'm a big fan of the Tito and the Bacon Ranch pizzas, but you can never go wrong with their cheese pizza either.

    I highly recommend this place to anyone in the Louisville area. Their pizza stacks up with just about anyone else's here.

    Went for lunch buffet and it was pretty good. You're not gonna be writing home about it, but you're gonna get what you're gonna get for $10 for a pizza buffet. It's exactly the type of pizza you'd expect at a buffet place.

    Pizza variety is really well. Cheese, pepperoni, sausage, meat lovers, veggie, buffalo chicken, and then probably the best pizza there... Bacon ranch, just trust me. Then they also have cheese bread, garlic knots, chocolate chip cookies, and glazed bread balls.

    You're not gonna get anything better for the price, that's for sure. Just watch the time you go as it can get PACKED fast.

    My husband and son love getting the buffet when we have time to stop in and eat. My absolute favorite is the Cheese Calzone and the hot buttery balls! Amazing and delicious! The prices are spot on. It's a family owned restaurant and they treat you just like family. When you walk in Fat Jimmy (he's tall not fat) or Todd yells out heyyy Lesley!!! For those days when I have to have some but am short on time .... they have a pick up window. You don't even have to get out of the car.!!! I didn't catch a picture this last time but be sure to try the chocolate chip cookie

    Fat Jimmy's Pizza is that one place you drive past all of the time, just curious of how good it may be, until you finally just say 'heck with it' and try it out. Or, at least that's how it was for me.

      Fat Jimmy's is a local pizza parlour located off of Shelbyville Rd. in Middletown. It's a small, dine in shop where they serve buffets, counter service and carry out. Chris and I were craving some pizza, but were also in the mood to try something new so we checked out Jimmy's.

       We walked in to order carry out and the staff was very friendly and quick. They have different options of pies, appetizers and sizes. We went with their "Tito's" pizza, which included buffalo chicken, banana peppers, and a few other toppings. We ordered the medium and it was a pretty large-sized pizza! We also got an order of their cheesy bread, which is a great option if you are wanting to try one of their apps.

      The restaurant itself is nice. There are plenty of booths and tables, along with a buffet counter. Their bathrooms were a little dirty, but maybe I just walked in at the wrong time.

       It's a great place to try some local pizza, so if you find yourself in the Middletown area it is worth checking out!
