  Let me just go ahead and say it: i adore this place. For such a small building it left a huge impression on me! I came into the store and ordered a Philly Steak sandwich. I get my bag and get on the road, but boy was I surprised when I opened it up. For an $8 meal with fries, I got so much food for my buck it was unreal! You can pay these prices at most other restaurants and get half the portions!
  
  Not only that, it was good. REALLY good. Bite after bite I enjoyed my food. This place definitely has my service in plenty of lunch hours to come!

  You know, that stop on the side of the road where you go in wide-eyed & hungry and come out with a greasy paperbag filled with yumminess? That's Fat Albert's.
  
  This carry out joint has a very limited menu, but that's fine because it means they've perfected what they cook.
  I recall burgers, and steak sandwhiches, philly style, and gyros. It's always fun to hear folk pronounce or mispronounce the beloved pita sandwich.
  All sandwhiches are served with a handful of greasy fries.
  I ordered a steak sandwich. First time I've had a "philly" with mozzarella so it didn't really taste like a philly. It also could have used some seasoning.
  The meal was inexpensive and yummy, just needed a little salt.
  I would recommend it as the best steak sandwich I've had thus far in Mississippi.
  GPS took me right there. There's an ample lot with plenty parking.

  I was dying for a gyro, so I decided it was time to take everyone's advice and try Fat Albert's.
  
  Man, that sucker was huge. No wonder some of y'all order an extra pita and side of sauce! They were running low on sauce, so I was disappointed I couldn't get extra. It was a little bland, though. It needed maybe a bit of garlic or something.
  
  The Italian beef was more spicy than seasoned, even more so if you get it with giardiniera. I also prefer a chewier bread that stands up better to dipping. I don't care for really soft, soggy bread, but I find most people here do. I only ate a couple of bites of this tonight to try it.
  
  The cheesesteak was better seasoned than the Italian. It looks like the cheese is all clumped in one spot, but it was actually all throughout. I actually liked this better than the Italian beef.
  
  Atmosphere: pay it no mind. It's strictly a to-go place. If you're lucky, you'll get one of the two folding chairs.
  
  Service: 5
  Friendly and efficient. She told me 15-20min; it was ready in *exactly* 20. They accidentally had 2 gyros on my order instead of 1. She immediately offered to refund my money for one, but I didn't want to bother. I just kept the extra one.
  
  Food: 4
  Portions are huge. Fries are included with the price. I'll give the gyro another try, and would go back for the Philly cheese steak for sure.

  5 stars definitely. The quality and quantity of the food can't be touched. I love gyro and you can stand there and watch as your food is being made. I love the owners even though they don't talk much. The place is always full of customers and if you haven't been, what are you waiting on. I can never finish my plate in one day. It's a lot of food for such a low price

  I truly wanted to love this place. The reviews have been good but I did not like their Philly cheesesteak. I've heard better reviews about their gyros and I might venture out and try them but it will take a minute for me to work up the nerve. The owners were pleasant and everything is cooked to order, it just wasn't that good to me. The meat was not seasoned, the peppers/onions didn't have the grilled taste although they were and the cheese had no taste. I was not a fan of the product, it would have been the ingredients they were using. It smelled amazing but it tasted like it was messing everything.
