The idea was to secure a location with favorable terms; develop a varied, reasonably-priced menu; offer ample portions of quality food, and provide upbeat service in a comfortable atmosphere - in short, operate a fun, casual dining restaurant, concentrate on the basics with a heavy emphasis on value, and guests would come. They did! The restaurant flourished, and Fatz Cafe was born. Cafe Enterprises, Inc. was formed to serve as parent company to the new restaurant and others that would follow. In the early 1990's, the company set out to continue to build the success of Fatz Cafe by focusing on the attributes that have contributed to the restaurant's popularity.
