Sometimes FAT is good.\u00a0 I am talking about JFAT, Jimmy’s Famous American Tavern.\u00a0 A new kind of gastropub where friends and family gather to eat, drink and socialize in a beautiful space overlooking Dana Point Marina.\u00a0 This casual and yet stylish tavern takes on a modern interpretation of traditional pub serving familiar American comfort food made daily from scratch using only the freshest ingredients that are locally raised, organic, and sustainable whenever possible and available.<\/p>\n

\"\"On August 10th, 2013, JFAT hosted a grand opening event benefiting Dana Point 5th Marine Regiment Support Group.\u00a0 Through the generosity of everyone who attended, JFAT raised over $9,000!\u00a0 Giving back to the community it serves is a huge part of JFAT.<\/p>\n
