    Had a really good experience here. The meat was fresh, everything came out fast, and the overall quality was great. Kelvin took care of us and was awesome -- really friendly, helpful, and checked on us throughout the meal. The restaurant has a nice vibe too, clean and comfortable without feeling too crowded. Service was efficient and the whole dinner went really smoothly. Definitely a place I'd come back to.

    Walked in at 2pm and were seated right away -- no wait at all, which was a nice surprise. The meat was the clear star. Tender, well-marbled, and seriously tasty. Everything we ordered hit the right notes on flavor and texture. Seafood was solid too, and the unlimited salmon sashimi was a real highlight -- fresh, clean, and easy to keep going back for. Service was good throughout. Our server was attentive without being overbearing and kept things moving smoothly. The only part that felt a bit underwhelming was the interior. It's fine, functional, and clean, but nothing special design-wise. Doesn't take away from the meal, just not a standout atmosphere. Overall a strong experience, especially if you time it right like we did. Would happily come back for the quality of the meat and that unlimited sashimi.

    Really enjoyed our dinner at Chubby Cattle! Kelvin was our server and he was super nice and attentive. The food came out really quickly, which we appreciated, and the meat was fresh and good quality. The restaurant also has a nice atmosphere and everything felt clean and well organized. Overall, really good service, fresh food, and a great experience. Would definitely come back!

    Honestly, the silver tier is all you need. This location is a bit smaller, so there are no self serve stations, but you can still order the same thing off the tablet, except that you are limited to eight items per order, every six minutes, so you kind of have to be strategic about whether you want that 2pc salmon nigiri or the Wagyu brisket. The staff, was very helpful, with bringing out the dishes for a quick, so you're never left waiting, or have downtime. You have a 70 minute time limit in this location. Is this a bit weird because other locations do 90 minutes. Either way, I was full when the 20 minute counter ahead, so I think the restaurant offset that by bringing out the food really quick. It is a smaller location, so at least the service was pretty phenomenal. I had no issues, the grill change was pretty consistent, and the food was great. The ambience, just expect a bit of a tight seating, in certain sections. However, I would still rather go here than other restaurants with a similar setup. The price, you're paying for better meat. The gold tier may be better if you really care about special dishes, or scallops.

    The food was delicious, but the service was disappointing. We each ordered the Platinum package expecting a great experience, but ended up feeling like an afterthought. Another party arrived after us, but because they seemed to know the staff, they received all of their food first--even though we placed our order earlier. Great food, but the obvious favoritism ruined the visit.

    Fantastic experience at Chubby Kattle! Katie made our visit truly special. She was warm, attentive, and knew the menu inside and out, with great recommendations and perfectly timed check-ins without ever hovering. The food was just as impressive: fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. Great service and great food made this a meal to remember. Ask for Katie, you won't be disappointed. We'll definitely be back!

    Service in food and quality, Simon and Ady rocked the house. Now I'm a member and I am only upset that I've wasted time not coming here sooner.

    Kylie C.

    This location was my first Chubby Cattle experience and it was amazing. My mom had just started a membership so we got so many extra goodies like caviar, nigiri, and etc. The restaurant is really small so prepare to wait when it's busy.

    This is a great place to come with friends and family. If you love food menus do start as low as $50 per person if you're not a member and the best part is that they've got Wagyu available. The interior does lack ventilation but overall it's really pretty. It's usually packed, but if you happen to come during the week after 8 PM, you're easily able to get in. The service has been great our server Katie has been attentive. Overall, this is a great place to come and enjoy high-quality meat, great service, and great vibes Food: 5/5 Service: 5/5 Ambiance: 4/5

    Chubby Cattle does not disappoint! All the meat was very tender and well-seasoned, and the food came out surprisingly quickly. I also loved that you can place another order every 6 minutes, which makes the dining experience feel seamless. The service was great, and our waitress, Katy, was very attentive and patient with our group. Although this location is smaller than the Rowland Heights location, it has a nice, cozy, and intimate atmosphere. Overall, a great experience, and I would definitely come back!

    Really great place for a dinner. The food was top notch with premium cuts of beef. The interior was classy and the atmosphere was really chill. Emma was incredibly helpful and quick with our service. Will definitely come again.

    Once again, the cattle outdoes it self. Kelvin and crew were very hospitable and attentive with their service! Quality of items and meat are very good, will be seeing them in the future.

    They changed the plates since the last time I was here. Kelvin has been very attentive.

    Kelvin was our server and he has been attentive when during busy hours. Food is always quality!

    Chubby Cattle Reviews in Other Languages

    Ask the Community - Chubby Cattle

    Exactly what cut of beef is the "knuckle"?

    Basically is from the back leg

    Is the health score still a C as of October 2025?

    As of this month at least, it is A grade

    What's the toddler/kids' discount?

    I believe there's a discount based on height, there's a measurement on the wall near the entrance. I'm not 100% sure, I think it was around $30, I'm sorry I didn't pay close attention because I don't have any kids that little.

    Is there bor acholohic beverages?

    Not sure what up mean by "bor" if you're referring to the "bor" hop then I'm not sure if they carry IPA that use "bor" hops. I've always order a pitcher of Sapporo draft beer.

    Do customers self order on a tablet or does a server take down the order?

    You self order on the tablet, but you can still order drinks with your server. Just a warning that you can only place orders on the tablet every 6 minutes!

    Do u have unlimted drinks?

    If you get the highest tier; free Sapporo

    I signed up on APP (which is free), and it says my membership is valid until end of year. does this free membership qualify for the discount and birthday free meal?…

    its separate from the local membership, for now you have to pay for this separately in restaurant and its good for a year.

    Does this place have an ipad to order on the table? Or we have to call everytime?

    iPad is at the table

    Does everyone in my group need to sign up for member to get member price? or just me sign up is enough?

    Each person who signs up for a membership can add another person to it. So if you have a party of 8, you need at least 4 people to sign up to get the same discount. Plus, they give you a free meal when it's your birthday and you have within 3 days… 

    Any birthday special?

    If you purchase the gold pass at least a month before your birthday, you get a free birthday meal!

    I want to reserve a table for 9 on Saturday, our friend is celebrating her bday on that day?

    You can make reservations online. If it's 9 people they may split you. They don't have a table big enough for 9.

    Do I need to make reservations for tomorrow around 4:00-5:00pm? Can I bring a bottle of wine?

    Since we don't sell wine, you can bring your own. However, we will charge a $28 corkage fee. If you visit between 4-5 PM on weekdays, there won't be a line

    Is there kids pricing?

    Kids under 110cm are free; kids 110cm to 120cm are 50% off

    Is there a different lunch and dinner price?

    No I don't think so. I believe it's the same.

    What is the difference between the Gold and Diamond menus?

    Check the menu photo in my review or the chubby cattle website -- you can see the menu side by side on the different items each tier includes.

    How does your yearly membership work?

    They give you a $10 discount off the price and it renews yearly

    When will their health score be reevaluated since the latest score is a C and the violations are alarming?

    Wow thats horrible. Since when?

    Do you offer different price for vegetarians?

    They do not offer different pricing for dietary restrictions.

    Are they open weekdays like Thursday ? Website business hours are confusing.

    Yes

    A classic staple BBQ in the Pasadena area!…read more GREAT HAPPY HOUR. From 3pm-5:30pm Mon- Friday! The have a fantastic happy hour with half off some of their drinks and half off certain appetizers and entrees (check thier website!). Their corn bread is a must with thier iconic japelpeno jam spread (though its not included on thier happy hour). They have great sides and appetizers, and haven't had one I didn't like! Their baby back, spare ribs, and brisket are fantastic with sauces on the side if you wanted to more BBQ sauce to your BBQ meat! Though in my opinion, I don't need it usually, as the meats are already so flavorful as is! I'd say its great for groups, though a bit pricy, but boy is this good, hearty, fall of the bone, BBQ! The servers have always been great and kind and even when we were celebrating a birthday last visit, they brought out a icecream Sundae with a candle! Very sweet! I talked to a man at the South Pasadena museum and told us that Gus's is the oldest BBQ establishment in California, serving hungry patrons since 1946. They haven't been in business in over 70 years for nothing! Thought it's been a long time, the place is still well maintained and updated so it still is nice and clean, but still keeping its historic core. Come by this meaty institution for their renowned classic American barbaque, with great libations, great food and amazing service with tasty history!

Since our group was 8 adults and a child, we weren't able to make a reservation online. My husband ended up getting there an hour before our meeting up time to make a reservation at the restaurant and we were able to secure a table that would be ready for us at the front of the restaurant at our requested time slot. When it came time, we sat down and had to wait for a high chair, which we had requested at the time of making the reservation, and then got to browse both the breakfast and lunch menus since breakfast was till 2:00PM. I had already had a meal in mind from the lunch menu, but ended up making a selection from the breakfast menu since I'm a sucker for Eggs Benedict and saw they had a "Southern Style". My husband decided to order from both menus since he was craving their Fried Pickles and Mac and Cheese. I decided to order a Blueberry Mint Lemonade to go with my meal since my sounded refreshing. My friend's cornbread came out and she shared with us, so we each got a piece as well as a little bit of the jam and cream that came with it. The cornbread was okay since the flavor wasn't strong enough for me. When my actual food came out, I was super excited to only discover that it didn't come with the spicy andouille sausage that I was looking forward too. I didn't think nothing of it cause I thought I misread the menu and maybe it said infused with the taste since I saw a small piece in the sauce, but after reviewing the menu again later in, I was mistaken and should've said something. The rest of the Egg Benedict was good though, but would have preferred less of the braised southern greens cause I removed about half of them. The Fried Pickles and side of Mac and Cheese though were pretty good and would order again. The Blueberry Mint Lemonade that I got was really tart and I felt like I needed to drink it while eating to balance out the flavors of the rest of my meal. I want to come back and give this place a shot again, but we shall see since my husband wasn't fond of his Smoked Ham Chilaquiles dish either. The service was great though considering we had a large table and our server was patient with us as we split the check four ways.

    After having this place's fried chicken wings, I have not been able to have chicken wings anywhere…read moreelse. What's even crazier is that I've been a diehard bone-in/traditional wings believer, but bb.q Chicken's boneless wings converted me to the dark side. In fact, I will shamelessly admit that I only ever order their boneless wings here after having tried them. Unlike other places' boneless wings, which use dry white meat (an absolute abomination IMHO), bb.q Chicken uses actual dark meat and are actual "boneless wings." The Cheesling flavor is to die for. Get the limited time Buldak Cheesling flavor for a special spicy kick. If you want an alcoholic drink with your chicken, I suggest sticking with beer or bottled soju. Their soju cocktails are pretty weak and have a strange pre-mixed flavor to them.

    As a local customer who has frequented Bb.q many times (almost weekly in the early days) with great…read moresatisfaction, today I am very disappointed. 1st one of the draws is the late night eats option, I mean even the popularity increased for Bb.q because it was featured in a kdrama as being a late night chicken spot. So to have your employee give me a whole speech at 8:45 about when you close the kitchen and how long I have to eat, is unacceptable, lack of customer service. And then denying service to 4 people at 9:08pm, also doesn't make for good ambiance or service. I paid $60 for 2 people to share a rice bowl and small batch of wings; what would those 4 people have ordered $$$? *change your hours if your trying to close early 2nd the wings have really reduced in quality and flavor, did you degrade or change in quality of chicken; or is that your not following the same recipe? And lastly, and this change I can sympathize with, but I very much enjoyed the yellow danmuji radishes in the bulgogi bowl, so eff those people who asked you to take them out; causing you to decide to no longer include them
