By Michael Key
Updated on November 14, 2025
Fat Dave’s located at 1511 NE 99th St in Vancouver closed its doors back in August but now there’s “Coming Soon”signs posted. We learned the good folks from Nayhely’s Place, a long time Vancouver eatery around the corner have taken over the space. We talked with the new owners who said they plan on “keeping the name” and “just making the food better”. Looks like there’s a lot of work to be done. We’ll report back when a date to reopen has been set.
