Pork chops are awesome. The sides left a lot to be desired.

We were visiting family in the area, and I located Chubby Trout on Yelp. Overall, a 4 star for the food. We have the walleye, which was good. Another in our group had sushi, and we all tried a roll - also very good. Service was friendly and attentive, but it was a very busy Friday night and food was slow to arrive...we didn't mind much as it allowed us time to visit. Expect a noisy bar like atmosphere. I would go back. read more

Awesome food and service!!! The Courtney chips are fabulous, we got them loaded! New and clean.

This was such a wonderful find! I travel a lot and put this into my GPS so I won't forget where it was. I'm writting this a month later and don't remember what I had but it was grand and I will go back! read more

Fun And tasty menu. Great service. Nice atmosphere. Good beer selection. Good for the whole family. Can't wait to go back. The Drunken Pigs were tender and yummy! read more

We had dinner 2x and let's just say both times we received food poison . We will NEVER go back. Go at your own risk

Average- fish is very fried and over cooked- sushi was missing - everything - fish and rice is not sushi- I had three rolls- they were alllllll the same?? Sad- big drinks! That's a plus- prices were decent - read more

My husband and I ate here last night. Very good meal and the waiter was friendly and attentive. The sushi description in the summary threw me off. They have a regular menu also. Rainbow trout and steak were delicious. read more

Visiting from Texas, great menu, great food, good service. Hubby had te chubby trout and recommends it, we also loved the crab bisque, the steak, and the mahi mahi grilled sandwich. read more

They would have gotten 5 stars, but they are a bit over priced for what you get. The food was good, however it took a bit of time to get the food and there wasn't many people in the restaurant. They have a decent bar area to eat and drink at if you prefer that. I still can't figure out the sushi bar here. It doesn't fit in with the rest of the food and restaurant. This place was recommended by the hotel for a good local restaurant, since this place is saturated with chain places. read more

Love this place. The service here is always good and attentive. Both my wife and I have tried several different items on the menu and they have all been very good. They have Prime Rib special that is wonderfully done. They also have a Crab Bisque that is FANTASTIC and not to be missed. The drink selection is great and they make an outstanding Key Lime Martini. You wont go wrong giving this place a try.... You will go back read more

This place is great! The atmosphere is fun and the service was great. Our server was Bridgette and she was awesome. Everything we had was delicious. I had the smoked prime rib with sweet potato fries and coleslaw. My boyfriend had the beer cam chicken with mashed potatoes and rice. The prime rib was tender and juicy with a nice smoky flavor. The best prime rib I've ever had. So was the chicken. We also had the big roll sushi which was so good. For desert we had the tempura fried cheesecake...it was amazing! We tried quite a few beers, they have a big selection in tap. Would definitely cone back next time we're in the area. read more

I really want to like this restaurant. We have been there many times. I have always loved their "Wally the Walleye" dish. But when i ordered it on a recent Friday night....the portion was very disappointing. I received a tiny piece of fish and an ice cream scoop of mashed potatoes, & some green beans. No salad or bread was included in the meal. I am not a big eater by any means....this meal was in no way satisfying. PLEASE don't cheapen up your portions Chubby Trout!!! Not sure if we will bother going back. read more

Great and varied beer selection. Had the fish tacos. Generous serving. Wonderful layers of taste, topped with a wasabi mayo. Great service by Anna. read more

Food is very good & great selection of cocktails & beers. New location is very nice & great decor. Have enjoyed all my tris to both old & new local. read more

What a great place to come. Tremendous staff, food, and CRAFT beer selection.My work brings me to Elkhart so I make sure I stay within walking distance to the Chub. read more

Slow service. Took forever to get waitress to take drink order. Husband got a flat beer. Pulled pork came without sauce and they only brought sauce once they noticed he wouldn't eat it. Cole slaw terrible. Hour and a half wait for subpar sushi. Missing a side . Hamburger order wasn't correct. Manager came to try to compensate, and she ended up taking 3 dollars off our 175$ bill. Not worth it read more

Food was amazing last night. Small menu but everything looked delicious. Service was outstanding. We will definitely be back.

Food and service ok but left a generous cash tip and waitress added more on our credit card which we noticed when we got credit card statement. read more

The Chubby Trout has become the unofficial hangout for my friends. I appreciate their selection of craft beers, including many regional varieties. Their menu features burgers, sandwiches, steaks and pasta entrees. They're one of the few places in Elkhart County that serve sushi and it's pretty good, though I have a limited sample size with which to compare. Their location is nondescript -- they're around the corner from a busy commercial corridor, but they shine nonetheless. read more

I really love this place, especially since they relocated to the new restaurant. My favorite thing is the burgers. I get that most of the time. I've had the sushi, that's been great also. I'm not big on fish, but I have had the Zander and did enjoy it. The BBQ is also great. And don't forget dessert. I don't think I've had anything bad from here. Definitely recommend this restaurant. read more

Oasis along the IN tollway. Fish is good. cocktails are great. Worth a detour.

I love coming here for the 1/2 price sushi on Mondays. The idea of this place if a little funny. They serve American style seafood and with a name like Chubby Trout I was expecting your usual fried clams and white fish but the Sushi here is AWESOME. It is always delicious and they have a wide variety of sashimi and dozens of different styles of rolls. One top of the great food they have a really good selection of beer and mixed drinks. read more

Love the American Dream and crab dip! All sushi is amazing here! Would definitely recommend eating here

Good food, good service, loud! I have been there for lunch and dinner. Hardwood interior makes for a noisy atmosphere. Servers friendly and courteous. read more

Friendly, well-meaning, though inexperienced staff. Ahi appetizer and miso soup were delish, pasta was so-so, creme brulee tasty. By far the best choice in area over-run with chain restos. read more

Yum, great food. Great drinks (moscow mule) and good service!! Fair pricing, I will be back!!

Called Tuesday to make reservations for Saturday. Reservations only for party of 12+. Asked if they do call ahead for party of 7? Told YES, we prefer it. Saturday at 6 called ahead and told they do not take reservations or call ahead for less than 12. Explained call earlier in week and told she was getting manager. I thought after holding for5 min she was trying to get us in that night. Mgr only placed blame and informed me it must have been the GM who took my call since she was working Tuesday afternoon. No apology just blaming employees and told they were booked for night.. I hope it was not the GM who did not know her own restaurants policies! read more

This place is a little overhyped in my opinion. The sushi is not buttery and soft sushi you would expect at a Japanese sushi bar. The pieces are also pretty small. On my last visit, I had a seared tuna salad. The greens were fresh, but tuna was mediocre. They serve huge desserts that could easily feed 3+ people. Service was decent. Overall a decent restaurant... Perhaps one of the better ones in Elkhart given the limited options, but nothing to write home about. read more

I had the Thai noodles with shrimp special for lunch and the crusted walleye for dinner and they were both excellent. The place was loaded with people eating sushi. I wish I had a chance to try it, but I was only there for a couple of days. This is probably the best place to go in the area. It came highly regarded and it was deserved. read more

Good stuff. Great beer selection. Good atmosphere. Good food. A little pricy but I would go again and probably again. Sat on the patio which lacks a little in the way of scenery which consists of a parking lot and a busy road but enjoyed the meal regardless. Service was really good. read more

Grilled ahi tuna outstanding. Chubby margaritas over the top great place great food.

We had great sushi there which was a pleasant surprise because the place has a "pub" sort of vibe and one would not expect freshly prepared sushi on the menu...which is half price on Mondays! Good food, good drinks and a nice crowd. Will definitely go back for more. The only complain I have is that it takes the food forever to arrive. Other than that, great restaurant! read more

Friendly staff, excellent prices. If you are from a coast, you might want to skip the sushi ... but the rest of the menu is excellent.

Awesome! Did not expect this at all! Was visiting from out of town and saw the reviews and the enticing menu. The parking lot seemed full at 545 on a Monday night. I got the seafood linguini which was made to perfection! The service was quick. The server Makena was on the spot! read more

Solid restaurant with a great fish selection. I was told that this is the place you want to get sushi at in Elkhart, and it's excellent. Mondays is half priced sushi night, and they don't accept reservations after 6pm that night, and expect a wait. Weekends you'll want a reservation, but other weeknights you should be fine. Excellent beer selection. read more

Fantastic sushi!!! We tried 6 different rolls and loved each one of them! Will defiantly go back and try the rest of the menu:)

What a great find! My colleague and I stumbled upon this restaurant based upon a flyer in our hotel lobby. I'm so glad that we did. Drinks, food, and service were all excellent. The atmosphere is very unique - it looks and feels like a small-town neighborhood bar, but has a sushi bar right in the middle! I was slightly skeptical of ordering sushi in a bar in the middle of Indiana, but the rolls sounded so good, and what the heck, you only live once right? The sushi rolls I had tasted fresh and were well-executed. I would highly recommend the Chicago roll! My colleague got a seafood entree, and she thoroughly enjoyed it as well. The staff was very friendly, and offered us some great suggestions from both the food and drink menus. As for the drinks, they were great, and not unreasonably priced. They had an interesting selection of dessert drinks that my colleague indulged in, and she seemed quite happy with her choice! All in all I very much enjoyed my dinner at the Chubby Trout, and will definitely be back next time I find myself in the Elkhart area! read more

I find that their food prices are a little higher than I think the food you get...but if you come for lunch, it's as good as anywhere else for the money. Their sushi is very good as well. I strongly suggest the spicy tuna. read more

Stopped in on a Monday night. Half price Sushi. Place was packed. First time we were here. We were told that every Monday is crazy because of the sushi deal. The problem is that they only have 1 Sushi chef so it takes about an hour to get an order filled. It is a relatively small place so one can understand that they don't have 2 sushi chefs available for one night. That said, the sushi was fine and, at 1/2 price a pretty good deal. Wife had crab bisque, which she enjoyed, and a perch dinner. Only complaint was that the breading on the perch filets, which are small anyway, was a bit too heavy. The portion was fine and the homemade chips were the bomb. The coleslaw, vinegar and dill base, was very tasty. Service was very good. Only thing that kept the rating from being higher was the long wait, we would return if we lived nearby.. read more
