    Fun experience, you get to choose all your meals, the sauces are customizable. They had an assortment of drinks to choose from. Including milk teas and fruit slushies. Kaylee was very attentive and made sure we were enjoying our time. The atmosphere was fun and family friendly.

    Absolutely loved my experience at Chubby Cattle! I got the standard buffet and spent two hours enjoying all the delicious offerings - including lamb, many different waygu cuts, shrimp, sushi/sashimi, and more! My favorite cut was the Waygu bbq thick cut top sirloin. My boyfriend's favorite was the Waygu thin cut knuckle. The fruit soda dispenser definitely shined - I enjoyed a lemon peach concoction. Pepsi products were also offered. All of the seafood was especially fresh - it didn't even need sauce! I really enjoyed the salmon sashimi and crab legs. However, the dipping butter was not tasty. It was very oily and had a strange flavor to it. I recommend a combination of the bbq sauce and white salt on the table. The atmosphere was great! Large collections of manga, traditional Japanese masks, and cute signs of the different mascots covered the walls. My waitress, Leah, was fantastic! She walked us through the buffet area, made helpful (and delicious) suggestions, and explained the membership (without being pushy). I didn't purchase the membership today ($58 per year for discounted pricing and additional perks), but I'll definitely consider it in the future. We paid $105 (after tax, before tip - during the week) for the AYCE Waygu buffet for 2, which included sushi, beverages (including milk tea), desserts, hot foods, fruit, crab legs, and dim sum. It was a great value. We left full and happy! Tip: Make sure to download the app and follow Chubby Cattle on socials. There's a free chuck tail flap offer when you post and tag the restaurant! Also, be sure to ask your waitress for ice cream and take a refill of your drink to-go! Chubby Cattle is a great spot for celebrating a birthday or just grabbing a great cut of steak for lunch. I highly recommend and will definitely be back to visit my girl, Leah!

    Love this location! I'm from California and this location was definitely better than the ones I've visited in my own home state. The meat quality was superb, we did the diamond tier and everything was amazing especially the thick cut A5 wagyu. The wagyus are melt in your mouth delicious and definitely worth the extra splurge. The buffet area has tons of options which I liked a lot because there was so much variety, especially the meat counter, where you can pick a few slices of each meat rather than having a whole order. The best part was our server Leah, she was amazing, very attentive and made sure we had a great time! Thank you Leah, for the wonderful service, definitely will try to come back to ATL to visit this location again.

    The food was very delicious, unfortunately I felt like the cold sides were made too far in advance and were very vinegar forward. The meat was all wonderful! PHILIP was an amazing server, and we never had to look for him or ask questions because he was so full of information. We got the gold tier and our bill for 2 after the membership was only $150 without tip. Amazing for actual Wagyu.The ambiance was a great everyday family friendly atmosphere. The review lost a point due to the cleanliness of the women's bathroom. It was really gross. Other than that, I RECOMMEND.

    Last year we tried Wagyu House and ended up getting a membership. This year I was excited to try their sister location. Unfortunately, I ended up disappointed. The place is located right where Perimeter Mall is. I haven't been on that side in years, so I had no clue that you have to pay to park. No biggie. I went with two other friends. Initially, the told one of my friends that she could do the $35 special on her on, but once our time started they came back and told her she had to go with what the table is going with. Which I thought was the rule, but didn't know if they were slightly different than Wagyu House. The layout of the restaurant gives off casual vibes and is nice. There weren't a whole lot of ppl there. One of the reasons I chose the weekend is because of the seafood options. However, there were no crab legs or AYCE seafood options. That was my first reason for feeling like I got cheated because in the 90 minutes we were there, it never came out. The other issue was that the food we ordered didn't come out. When it did, all the food was not delivered to the table. We had to ask our second server for the food because the first server said she would check on it, but it never came. At the time one of my friends hit me with some crazy news and therefore I didn't make a big fuss with the manager. The Wagyu that came with our tier was absolutely delicious. Everything else was meh. To me I feel like we were cheated out of experiencing what we came for. Speaking with another friend, who went to the Duluth location the week before, and both of us agreed that Wagyu House was much better. I don't know when I'll give them a second chance, but I do believe in them having one.

    First time and the experience was 10/10. I got the Gold tier so I can try the A5 Wagyu. Nite the first 2 section of the gold tier: you can only order 1 order from each section and that's it. Then the rest of the selections within the gold menu is unlimited, on top of everything in silver tier. I was too hungry to take pictures and wish I could have take more pics. Overall the meat quality was top notch. The A5 melts in your mouth. And some other meat, the seasoning was really good with peppery taste. I recommended getting the gold tier. All the sauces were good as well. And the sides. The handroll sushi was great! And the tomyum soup was so delicious! They also have 2 different types of milk tea for unlimited drinks! And the matcha Mille crepe was so good as well! I love the decor of the place with manga covers and Japanese styles. Shoutout to our waiter Ricky for helping my group of 6 people cooking the meat. He was very accommodating and answer all our questions!

    Chubby Cattle coming to ATL was a huge win for the food scene. AYCE lovers, this place absolutely delivers. The service, management, and Chubby Cattle team is consistently great, and the food quality never misses. There are so many delicious options. You order most items straight from the tablet, plus there's a buffet area for extra goodies. The selection is impressive- Wagyu, a wide variety of proteins like pork belly, beef, steak, and more, plus some dim sum favorites, sushi, nigiri, curry (special shoutout to the rice machine, because yes, it deserves its own moment), dumplings, fried bites, a solid drink selection, and even desserts including some soft serve ice cream and bubble tea (without the boba) to finish strong. This location is in front of Perimeter Mall. The ambiance is another highlight. This Chubby Cattle location is spacious, perfect for larger groups, and has a fun, lively vibe. Walking in genuinely feels like you've been transported to another country- great energy, great atmosphere, great time. Pro tip: There's a set time limit for AYCE, so order strategically and keep an eye on when you can submit additional rounds on the tablet. Plan wisely and you'll leave very happy (and very full). Also, there's some paid parking right out front but you can park for free at the mall near Cheesecake Factory. Overall, Chubby Cattle is a must-visit if you love AYCE done right.

    We came for lunch right at opening and opted for the Diamond tier. There's a 90-minute dining limit, so pacing matters. Mixing richer, fatty cuts with leaner ones is the way to go in my opinion. Standouts for me were the shank and the Australian wagyu, both excellent in flavor and texture and offered that rich-lean balance. Service was attentive and efficient, especially since we were one of the first tables of the day. I imagine things could feel more rushed when the restaurant is busy, but our experience was smooth and well managed. Located in the former Breakers restaurant space. Would return.

    The service staff here were pretty kind, when first entering, they were extremely attentive, and we were seated quickly on a weekday. I did join the membership program, however, I am questioning its value due to the fact that a lot of the benefits are in California where I'm assuming they may be based. Go into this with the expectation that it is different from Korean barbecue, because it is Japanese. However, it is just as delicious. I was a bit upset about the lack of a chicken option, you're going to have to choose between kaarage or a New Orleans style chicken cartilage to grill no boneless / marinated breast or thighs. Go in with the expectation that your eyes may be bigger than your stomach cause you will be charged for access food. However, the quality of the meat was great all of the steak options we had were enjoyable, along with the pork belly! We did get silver cheer, which had a member pricing of $45.99, which I think is typically about $55 without. It's a very well decorated establishment, it reminds me of a street that you'd see with the awnings, it's a fun environment to be in. It's also nice that drinks are included with your meal. I think I'll visit again just for the fact that I'm a member, or one of the sister locations opposed to the one in Atlanta.

    I love ayce bbq and went to try out this new restaurant that opened in perimeter! They have everything you can think of - sushi, all kinds of wagyu, dumplings, vegetables, slushies and more. I enjoyed everything we tasted! I am normally hesitant of buffet sushi but these were being made fresh and were very good! Some of my favorite meats were the miso brisket, short rib, and wagyu ribeye! They also had a miso soup and rice machine. The rice machine is so smart because it is way more hygienic than having to self serve/scoop out a container. For drinks I got a lychee slushee which was delicious. We also ordered from the bar the matcha peachtree which was my favorite - very unique taste of peach and matcha! The soju-rita and lychee martiniz were also good choices. I would definitely recommend this spot. Pro tip- to save $ try coming in the week day or for lunch :)

    Amazing food, beautiful restaurant. Ricky was very attentive, and quick. Definitely would come back. I might like the food more than Wagyu house. The buffet is bigger here

    I love chubby cattle group. So when I saw this newly open place, I had to check it out. There is no tiers at this location. It's one price all you can eat. I like that you can grab your own meat as well so you don't have to wait for the servers to bring it to you. I love the decor at this location. It's a little different than the others as well. They also have manga lined up all around the whole restaurant. Do not open the manga books, please they are displays only. I noticed some of them were open. I like the idea a lot since sometimes when the kitchen is backed up, you have to wait for them to bring it to you at the other locations. I also love that this location has more variety when it comes to the side, dishes and buffet option. They actually have more desserts here and they also have a lot of different appetizers as well and the buffet. The only thing I didn't like about this location was you have to have a chubby group membership in order to get the more premium cut meats. I go maybe once a month and to a chubby group location. Maybe I should get a membership but usually at the other locations you can get Gold or Diamond tier and you can get Wagyu Otoro. It's one of my favorites and its melts in your mouth good. At this location, they only had regular Wagyu cuts, which wasn't bad, but I really like getting the diamond tier. Ever since my trip from Wagyu house I've just been blown away by the A5 Wagyu. I just can't eat normal Wagyu anymore. I probably would come here again for conveniency, since they grab your own option was nice. On days where I don't feel like walking definitely the other location.

    So my sister and I weren't too keen on the traditional Thanksgiving meal this year so we dined on shabu shabu at Chubby Cattle at the Perimeter Mall today. I don't know what restaurant this used to be but they've transformed it into a hip Korean bbq spot. Inside is really nice, clean with urban vibes. Service was good. Whenever we got ready to put meat on the grill, our server was right there to assist. Our grill was changed halfway through the service to make sure we got great tasting meat each time. It was some of the best Japanese BBQ I've eaten, with tender cuts of wagyu beef that melted in my mouth. The AYCE bar with other pieces of beef and seafood plus Korean sides, soups, dumplings, drinks and desserts was plentiful. It was a delicious meal where I got to try some interesting dishes and spend some quality time with my sister for fun times and good laughs.

    Fox Bros. Bar-B-Q…read more Fox Bros. has that hole-in-the-wall BBQ joint feel, but with plenty of space to hang out. There's a bar along with both indoor and outdoor seating, and the overall atmosphere is casual and laid-back. Our waitress was incredibly friendly and gave us some great recommendations, which definitely added to the experience. We went with the three-meat sampler and chose the brisket, ribs, and jalapeño cheddar sausage, with tots and the Fox-a-Roni for our sides. The Fox-a-Roni--a combination of their Brunswick stew and mac & cheese--was absolutely delicious and easily one of the most memorable sides I've had at a BBQ restaurant. The brisket was honestly some of the best brisket I've ever had. It was tender, flavorful, and easily my favorite of the three meats. The jalapeño cheddar sausage was also really good, and while the ribs tasted great, ours were pretty small and didn't have a ton of meat on them. My only real complaint was the portioning of the sampler. We were told that as you choose a larger variety of meats, you essentially receive smaller portions of each. I understand the idea of a sampler, but we literally received one slice of brisket and two-three fairly small ribs, so the portion-to-variety concept didn't make a ton of sense to me. I would've preferred slightly more substantial portions, especially considering how good the brisket was! I also ordered a cocktail, but unfortunately it wasn't really for me. It came across very sweet and mostly juice, although I think that may have been more about the particular drink I chose than the bar itself. Overall, the food absolutely delivered. Between the incredible brisket, Fox-a-Roni, friendly service, and laid-back BBQ atmosphere, Fox Bros. was definitely worth the stop. I'd happily come back--I'd just skip the 3 meat sampler next time and order more of that brisket!

This is a great neighborhood bbq place and I would def come back again!

If there was a rub, it was subtle to the point of being almost untasteable. Quarter rack of Ribs: poor. Meaty, but far too tough, definitely not fall off the bone. Again lacking in flavor, and burnt in spots. Side of Mac n Cheese: easily the start of the show. Very flavorful, baked and not swimming in cheese sauce, possible notes of ritz crackers detected. I'd have eaten a main course sized portion, and imagine it could mix well with pulled pork or chopped brisket, should Matt's ever consider expanding their repertoire of meats. Side of potato salad: also very solid. Simple but nicely flavored, just creamy enough. Side of collards: fine but unremarkable. Bbq sauce: decent-ish, more tangy than sweet. Very thick. Packaging : Matt's really could improve here. The ribs and chicken, piled together between two slices of white bread, was wrapped in white paper which was in turn stuffed into a paper bag with the containers of sides. This was messy- yes, bbq is by nature a messy undertaking, but a clamshell container would've made the whole fiasco a lot easier to deal with. A fork and spoon were included, no knife... and no napkins. Really? For a paper wrapped oversauced pile of meat... not even a single napkin? I honestly would've been fine paying an extra buck or so for some better packaging and, IDK, maybe a wetnap. Overall, this bbq lover was unimpressed. Perhaps the rave reviews made my expectations too high. I've honestly had better bbq at multiple places in my relative bbq desert hometown of Boston. I was hoping for a real treat during my business trip to Atlanta; instead, I'm yearning for the joint near my suburban New England home...

My impression was that it's really all about the sauce, with its blend of spicy, sweet, and just a little funkiness, though both the pork and brisket had a nice level of smoky authenticity to them. I can't say the mac and cheese blew me away, but it was a solid side. If I lived nearby, I'd be regularly getting the pork sandwiches. But it's a long drive from Nashville, so I'll have to keep it to a once in a while special.

They mix traditional southern BBQ with Korean flavors and somehow everything works. We got the chicken sandwich, spicy Korean pork, greens, Brunswick stew and mac and cheese. Everything was great, but the mac and cheese was fucking phenomenal. I could've eaten a gallon of it. The Korean pork was so good it'd make you want to crash a plane into your enemies. I don't know what they put in that shit but I understand the commitment now. The manager was awesome too. Before we even ordered he let us try a few different things and every single thing he handed us was delicious. By the time I actually ordered I would've trusted this man with my finances. Absolutely no reason food this good should be coming out of a little building attached to a convenience store, but I guess that's usually how you know you're in the right place.

    The tragedy here is that I've lived less than five minutes up the road from Owens & Co. for YEARS…read moreand somehow just found this place! Normally, I'm driving 20-30 minutes or more trying to find decent ribs and brisket, and half the time I end up disappointed. Owens & Co. absolutely knocked it out of the park. And don't be fooled by the location. From the side, you might think you're walking into some small "wannabe" BBQ joint. Walk through the front door and that impression disappears immediately. This is a real restaurant--with great service, great atmosphere, and, most importantly, GREAT food. We showed up around 12:50 on a Saturday afternoon, and I had my favorite lunch partner with me--my wifey--which made discovering this place even better. It wasn't very crowded yet, but the smell when we walked in was hypnotic. Smoked meats, BBQ, and all those incredible sides hitting you at once. The space itself is really nice, too, with huge windows and a great view. Then, while we were eating, the crowd started building both at the attached brewery and inside the restaurant. Before long, the whole place was buzzing with energy. I can't say enough about the team at Owens & Co. I don't remember everyone's names yet, but I plan on learning them because WE WILL be back. Great BBQ, great people, a great atmosphere, and a great Saturday lunch with my wifey. What more can you ask for? If you're anywhere nearby and you love real BBQ, check these folks out. They are the real deal!!

    Owen & Co. definitely lived up to the hype! The food was incredible, and every single item was…read moreseasoned perfectly. We ordered the brisket, pulled pork, lemon pepper wings, half slab of ribs, mac and cheese, and coleslaw, and everything was flavorful and cooked just right. The brisket was tender, the ribs fell off the bone, and the lemon pepper wings were some of the best we've had. What really made the experience stand out, though, was the service. Chandler, who was working the register, went above and beyond. Not only was he friendly and welcoming when we ordered, but he also walked around the dining room checking on everyone, making sure guests were enjoying their meals, and even helped clear our table. That level of hospitality is hard to find these days and made us feel genuinely taken care of. Great food, amazing service, and a welcoming atmosphere. We'll definitely be back!

    My first visit to Sweet Auburn BBQ was long overdue, and I honestly left wondering why it took me…read moreso long to make it there. What initially brought me in was Atlanta Burger Week, and I ordered their featured burger to take advantage of the special. While the burger was good, the real star of the meal was the smoked barbecue fried rice with brisket. It was absolutely fantastic. The brisket was incredibly tender and practically melted in your mouth. The fried rice itself was packed with flavor and had such a unique, smoky taste that perfectly complemented the barbecue. It is not often that a side dish completely steals the show, but this one certainly did. The atmosphere was welcoming, the food arrived promptly, and the entire experience exceeded my expectations. It is always exciting to discover a restaurant that delivers something a little different, and Sweet Auburn BBQ does exactly that by blending flavors and cuisines in a way that feels both creative and comforting. I left full, impressed, and honestly a little disappointed in myself for waiting so long to visit. This definitely will not be my last trip, and I already know the smoked barbecue fried rice with brisket will be ordered again.

    We visited Sweet Auburn on a Sunday afternoon with a group of 10. Parking was a little confusing…read moresince it's in a parking deck shared with an apartment building, but the restaurant will validate parking for up to two hours, which was a nice perk. A few of us shared the BBQ Omakase, and I was pleasantly surprised by both the quality and the amount of food. The appetizers were a great start, the brisket egg rolls were crispy, packed with meat, and easily an 8.5/10. I also really enjoyed the pimento wontons. The standouts for me were the mac and cheese, baby back ribs, and brisket. I also ordered the fried rice, and it honestly tasted just like hibachi-style fried rice, so good! The only item that fell a little flat for me was the wings. That said, both my sister and my spouse really enjoyed them, so it may have just come down to personal preference. The service was a little slow, and it took a while before we were able to place our orders, but our server was pleasant and friendly throughout the meal. Overall, I was very impressed. The food was flavorful, the portions were generous, and everyone in our group left full with enough leftovers for the next day. I'd definitely come back!
