Chubby Curry - Chicken katsu Katsu Brunch Bliss Salad - Japanese Curry Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

I keep coming back to this place even though I live all the way out in Santa Ana. I am a NFT holder so the discounts that are applied here and their other sister locations are always a huge bonus on top of enjoying amazing food. I came during opening hour, so not busy, no wait. Parked in the parking structure across the street as it is 2 hour free parking, which is always nice, and on this crazy rainy day. Our server today was again Carson, who has always been super nice and welcoming. He took our order expeditiously, and in no time, our order came out. I opted this time for the chicken katsu entree as I have had their Chubby Curry bowl, tonkatsu entree, veggie udons, and such. So, I wanted to try something else. I was surprised to find that my order came with two pieces of the Chicken Katsu instead of one, as you can see in the image. I am a light eater, so this was way more food than I expected. For the price, based in Beverly Hills and the quality of the Chicken Katsu, I am very happy indeed. The Curry Fries has always been a hit. It's super crispy with amazing flavor, especially when you dip it into the sauce that comes with it. Also, the charred broccoli was amazing as well. Everything was nice and clean, and the service was spot on with Carson always refilling our drinks (water & tea) and making sure we were happy with our meal and needed nothing else. read more

Super hype new curry place with a playful aesthetic. It's gives right in between fast food and classy dining. I liked the curry fries appetizer as it was hefty in portion and super crispy. The sauce was smooth and umami too. Curry Fries- 9/10 Super crispy and well seasoned. Curry mayo sauce hit the spot. Tonkatsu Kare- 8/10 Tonkatsu could be more crispy, but the curry was lightly sweet from the fruit and not super strong. Hamburg- 8.5/10 Super interesting dish. The hamburg was seared perfectly with really crispy bits and it was not salty at all. Overall really enjoyed this restaurant. The portions were great and they had really alert and caring waiters that checked up on us from time to time. read more

Chubby Curry - Large Curry Fries - Japanese Curry Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Ordered via delivery. The curry sauce was so watery, it could barely have been considered curry. The sauce was way too sweet and albeit being watery, it was oddly chunky. Bad mouthfeel. The rice was so mushy, almost the consistency of porridge. You can tell the pork cutlet was premade/frozen because the breading came off with no effort. The curry itself was not good. The only reason I'm not giving a 1 star is because the curry aioli that came with the waffle fries was very good. read more

The curry looks like Japanese curry, but it has no flavor whatsoever. I knew right away that it was not authentically Japanese-style curry, no depth of flavor. The place is however very cute with anime figures. Free parking across the street. read more

Chubby Curry - Side salad and miso soup ($6) - Japanese Curry Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

Fabulous curry! Get their curry fries to share as well. The wagyu signature was my favorite

Discovering new favorite Japanese curry place in LA. The restaurant is the brand new concept of Chubby Castle group , with the taste of homemade Japanese curry. The vibe here is very casual compared with another places of chubby castle group. But the food is absolutely incredible. Even if you are not a big fan of curry you would like their food . I ordered Chubby Curry and Udon Know Me . The Chubby Curry was really tasty with unique deeply flavors of iconic Japanese curry and the high quality wagyu beef was melted in my mouth. The udon dish was a different interesting combination of lighter curry flavor with modern touch of mushrooms . Highly recommend to have the curry dishes with combo of curry fries and #cucumbersalad . The curry fries were really a bomb with the explosion of texture and flavor, and the cucumber salad was very satisfied and balanced out curry flavors. I also had wagyu beef dumplings for side but it was just ok . With good quality food and located in Beverly Hills , Chubby Curry is surprisingly very affordable prices . Highly recommend !! read more

Casual eatery with top-tier food. The westside doesn't have enough places like this. Probably the best Japanese curry I've ever had. I got the chicken katsu kare. The depth of the flavor in their curry is insane. So flavorful and rich. They have it down to a science. Generous portions of high-quality meat. The chicken was tender, juicy and delicious. I have no complaints about this establishment. Highly recommend and will be going back asap. read more

Chubby Curry is part of what I understand is a growing Chubby Empire: Chubby Cattle (yakiniku), Chubby Nori (sushi), Chubby Bowls (pho), Chubby Burgers, Chubby Chicken, Chubby Chili, Chubby Checkers, Chubby You-Name-It. The storefront is on a block that's both somewhat posh (Rodeo Drive is spitting distance away) and somewhat mundane (it's home to Chipotle, Jersey Mike's, and a true fast food endangered species, Pinkberry). Even on a sunny Beverly Hills summer day, the place is gloomy and cavernous, with walls and ceilings painted a dark chocolate brown. Chubby cubby holes display an array of tchotchkes like anime figurines and gundam toys because... Japan! I might be more impressed were I not immediately stuck in a log jam of customers as soon as I entered. Chubby Curry clearly didn't have adequate coverage on the floor. When I finally got seated after more than ten minutes -- and I was the only dine-in customer waiting -- it took another ten-plus minutes to get my order taken. And it seemed that my order was never actually processed as one of the dozens of checks that kept rolling into the kitchen since, twenty minutes later, I finally heard the one waiter ask if her could get another lunch special after looking my way. So finally, some thirty minutes after sitting down, my lunch finally arrived. I wouldn't have minded quite so much were I not seated at the bar with a view over the open kitchen, where I could see that my order took less than thirty seconds to prepare: scoop of rice on a plate, ladle of premade curry, throw some green onions on, and done. But the time I got my food, I had watched this done dozens of times already, as well as seen many other, much more complex dishes for tables that came in after me get prepared. I had also watched the head chef leave the kitchen to come out and clean tables at one point. Chubby Curry is seriously understaffed, with one harried server attending to a packed restaurant. I couldn't fault him. The kitchen staff also worked like mad. If the owners want to run on limited staffing, then the menu should be trimmed, cutting the time-consuming burgers and sandwiches and complicated udon dishes. As for the all-you-can-eat weekday curry lunch special, it was nothing special. Wagyu is about fat marbling, and it's really only special when it's grilled. Stewing is a cooking method for poor cuts of beef, so why would anyone expect stewed wagyu to be special? (The same goes for wagyu burgers. Once it goes in a meat grinder, it doesn't make a whiff of difference if it's wagyu or not.) The curry was fine, but it's not all that much different from what I make at home with boxed curry roux. I guess I got a decent value for the all-you-can-eat deal, but did it justify a forty-minute wait? Just to get someone to lunch lady out rice and stew from steam trays? In that measure, no. So Chubby Curry has just gotten one customer leaner. read more

In the center of Beverly Hills cafe strip. It's very historical spots for me this street of my childhood memories! Still bustling a little. First we've ordered the yuzu sake which was full flavoured and decent enough, while we were waiting for our dishes , they had that small table game like a jenga, it was hilarious to play with. The roll was scrumptious enough to appetite us with the order of cucumber salad. And the main event, huge portion of duck curry, too much even for 2 people, the atmosphere is more like casual izakaya but the servers are very friendly, also especially there Togo packages were absolutely amazing! Even tho, I got gluten allergy, after the meal struggled a lot - Japanese are using a lot of those and msg.- still gonna come and have their dishes! To be honest with you, the best duck dish around LA! Thank you for the toothsome dishes! read more

I was lucky enough to attend the soft opening event for Chubby Cattle Group NFT holders with a few friends. The service was great and our server was very attentive. Our orders came out in a timely manner and with an open kitchen concept, you can see the chefs prepping/cooking which adds to the overall atmosphere. I had the tonkatsu entree and my fiancee had one of the curry options. The tonkatsu was juicy and had a nice crunch. Fun fact: the piggies are fed ice cream as part of their diet. The curry was savory and the curry fries along with the triple dipping sauces were delicous. I only wish there would be a larger portion for the tonaktsu. Definitely will be returning to try the rest of the menu such as the duck curry in the near future. #chubbyclub read more

Chubby Curry - Miso soup and Cucumber Salad. - Japanese Curry Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

My group had such a wonderful time at Chubby Curry last night. We came from SGV, so this is a bit of a drive! However, Japanese curry is one of our comfort food so we had to make the trip! The food was utterly decadent and delicious. On top of that, Jason and the other staff members were excellent, and attentive despite having to tend to the entirely full restaurant. I cannot emphasize enough how Jason went above and beyond to make our experience memorable! He even remembered my mother's food restriction at the end of the meal! We were able to make some adjustments, and I am really glad they were able to make it happen. :) We had the following: * Curry Fries - So addictive! I do recommend asking them not adding salt because they are so salty! * Chicken Katsu Kare - Perfect. :) * Stone Pot Wagyu Hambagu - Perfect. :) * Chubby Curry Wagyu Plate - I should note that this does come a bit on the raw side! Nevertheless, very yummy! * Wagyu Burger with Crispy Cheese - Same as above. It does come a bit on the raw side, but still very yummy! Also, we got some of the additional sides such as sweet peas, charred broccoli, and grilled maitake (mushrooms). They were all great additions to the dishes! Unfortunately, the roasted duck curry was sold out by the time we arrived, but it is definitely something to look forward to! Also, things can be requested and adjusted, so I will definitely make note of things. I highly recommend giving Chubby Curry a visit! This is the spot for comforting meals with excellent service! read more

It was my first time coming here and it won't be my last! The best burger in Beverly Hills by far!! It was super juicy, lots of flavor and service was great! Everyone is so nice and welcoming. The fries were crispy with tons of flavor. The curry aioli is just absolutely amazing! read more

Better than most curry spots in the area. Doesn't feel like a huge chain but the curry itself can be fairly generic. I tried both the wagyu and the chicken Katy's curry. It didn't look like a lot of food. I was satisfied by it but I've been to curry locations in the valley that really give you a lot and it's super good, this was alright. I probably wouldn't go again unless someone wanted to try it. read more

The Chubby chain comes out with another hit! The curry fries and wagyu dumplinga were delicious! The fries come with a curry aioli and I regret not getting a second order of it. Between the chicken katsu and udom curry, I really liked the chicken katsu! The meat was so tender and crispy! Service was a little slow. I think that might just be that this is a newer restaurant. For curry, this is a little more expensive with smaller than average portion sizes. It's not bang for buck, but the quality and taste were good! read more

Food is absolutely amazing here. We got the Udon Know Me and Tonkatsu Kare. The Tonkatsu is hands down the best I've had in LA. So juicy inside and crispy on the outside.

Chubby Curry - Tonkatsu Kare and Udon Know Me - Japanese Curry Near Me - Beverly Hills, California

(REALLY) DON'T BOTHER I was very excited to discover Chubby Curry. Yesterday, a Saturday, I took my boyfriend to Chubby Curry, which I had been excited to try. He's lived in Japan, and was happy to have some curry too. When we arrived, there were no clean tables in the main restaurant area, but a couple near the front windows. We asked them to clean another table for us, and they did. Then one of the servers came to take our drink orders. They "serve" beer, wine and sake. They were out of my two first choices of beer out of the four total choices so we ordered something else. Boyfriend went to wash his hands. In the meantime, another server came back and explained that the restaurant didn't have any chicken. I was going to order chicken, so waited to hear what the options were. I decided to order a hamburger. I asked for it to be cooked well done. The server (maybe an owner?) stood there and explained that the chef would not cook it well done. I was stunned, to say the least. Clarified that despite the fact that we intended to stay and dine at the restaurant - although the restaurant didn't have the ability to serve any of the things that we wanted to order (despite that they are on its online and printed menus) - it would not cook a well-done hamburger. I am still surprised. Clearly, the people in charge do not understand that it is in their interests to serve food rather than to act as though they are superior to their potential customers and refuse to cook a burger to taste. I can't imagine why the owners would take such a position. This is not the only Japanese curry in west Los Angeles. I won't return, nor will my friends patronize it. Not worried about missing anything. read more

My favorite dish out of everything we ordered was the chicken katsu. The wagyu burger and stonepot wagyu hambagu was okay, nothing special. I love the ambiance of the place and I appreciate the tic tac toe game that was available on each table to keep guests entertained. The service was quick as well. There is 2 hour free parking in the garage across it. If you get lucky, there's metered parking on the street. read more

Please note that this review reflects the soft opening experience and might not entirely represent the potential of the restaurant upon its grand opening. As a part of the Chubby Nft membership, we were invited to sample Chubby Curry, one of the latest additions to the Chubby restaurant group expanding nationwide. Despite our expectations of a fancy, upscale venue in Beverly Hills, we discovered a cozy restaurant adorned with cool anime figurines on the walls. Parking was convenient, either with nearby street meters or a $5 all-day parking structure across the street after 6pm. Service The entire staff was welcoming and genuinely sought feedback on their dishes, displaying a passion for improving the restaurant. Head Chef Shin, also heading the restaurant Niku X at the Intercontinental Hotel, personally checked on us! A special acknowledgment to Carson for taking care of us that evening as well. For sides CURRY FRIES-8.5 So the sauce of the fries and seasoning were spot on! The flavors really meshed well together and I was left wishing there was more sauce. The only thing that could make this better IMO is the fries. Although crispy waffle fries was great in texture and seasoned well, I think the crispness didn't do a good job at soaking the sauce. Steak fries would've done awesome here. Overall still a good appetizer. Cucumber & Radish Salad- 8 This dish by itself was an 8 but where it was elevated was when the rest of the dishes arrived. This made a great palate cleanser and helped balance other flavors in the table. Main Dishes Chubby Curry-8.5 This is one of their main Curry dish which came out nice and hot in a stone pot. Japanese Curry is a sweeter umami flavor compared to let says an Indian Curry but not by all means inferior. Presentation was alright but I'm thinking to myself how do you make curry very presentable. The flavor was good but I think I wanted to be Wowed and for me it was just a good Curry. The wagyu inside and the carrots were great though. Wagyu Burger-9.5 for texture 8 for flavor The burger features their housemade shokupan bread with a wagyu meat patty, cheese and grilled onions. The texture of the bread and the cook the meat were spot on and everything just melted in my mouth. There was something about the flavor that was missing though cause it didnt feel like I was biting into anything new. Still a good dish though. Chicken tonkatsu Curry- 9 At first glance, the chicken looked a bit pink which I thought it would be undercooked but I was reassured this is how it was meant to be prepared. Took a bite and it felt like I was biting into the wagyu of chickens. Super soft and juicy texture with a nice crisp on the outside. Ofcourse it came with a side of Curry and rice. Overall one of the best dishes of the night! UDONKNOWME- 9 The best dish of the night. Udon noodles with wagyu beef had a great umami flavor . It felt like there was some truffle inside as well cause for some reason I kept wanting more. The udon does a good job at soaking the flavors in. The only thing I would change is I ordered some side items such as thai, Peas and other items on the side but they ended up mixing it all in the udon. One of the chili's was hiding under a big chunk of wagyu and I took a big bite which killed me for 5 mins. Other than that, would highly recommend this dish! We ended the night with homemade matcha white chocolate cookies which is a 10/10. We ate it otw home but kept wanting more after. Make sure to ask for these if they have it. Conclusion Overall, I rate the restaurant a 4.5. The service, ambiance, and ingredient quality were exceptional, but some dishes flavor werent cohesive. Given that this was the soft opening, I believe improvements are more than likely, given the staff's openness to feedback. I look forward to revisiting during its full launch! read more

Sat down for a while, waited for a while until someone came to take my order. Then I was asked to move to the table next to me so that they can take a group of 6, it was kind of annoying. I got tonkatsu curry for lunch, had to ask for spoon to eat rice with curry. Tonkatsu was delicious, probably one of the best I've ever had in the US. Curry and rice were also cooked beautifully. The rice bowl was pretty but not easy to hold. Basically there's no service here, no one came to me after sitting for quite a while until they asked me to move, I had to ask for spoon so that I can eat, not sure what service I got during my meal, wish I didn't hit the default 18% tip button. And BTW the restroom was messy too. read more

I saw a BOGO on the chicken curry on DoorDash and figured I couldn't afford to not try it. The katsu cutlet is extremely tender and perfectly breaded. The rice was solid too. The curry itself was pretty good, I do wish it had a bit stronger curry flavor and was a lot spicier, but that's probably not what the demographic in this area prefers. Admittedly, I am a huge curry lover and eat some form of curry almost every day (Thai, Indian, Japanese, etc) and I am used to very bold curries, so maybe my taste buds are a little fried haha. Either way, it was still very good and I will likely come back again, especially before this deal is over. Side note: the packaging is extremely well thought out and attractive. Not something that I normally care about at all, but it was done well enough that it was worth commenting on. I don't need the foil lined bag for take out, but I can see how for delivery services it keeps the food nice and warm. Gal working at the front was pretty friendly and they were playing some cool Japanese trap music that I Shazammed haha read more

I am always looking for an excellent Japanese curry place. I had no high expectations and was amazed by the quality of the curry. They are onion-based, and so a little on the sweeter side. First, we had the curry fries and were pleasantly surprised by how tasty it was, considering I don't like my fries with no Complex flavoring. We had the kamikaze Kate and chicken katsu entree. I can handle spicy food, and this one was out there. The chicken katsu was crispy and tender. The curry was flavorful, not watery, and will be here more often. read more

This is a very amazing restaurant. You can believe that there is not a single dish that is not delicious after we ordered so many dishes. And the price is very affordable.
