Oh Wagyu beef was amazing with lots of diversity. Tasty and juicy you have got to try it if you're meat person. Host Natalie was very kind and pretty,our server Allen is like a pro cook. He explained all the items in the menu very smoothly and perfectly so that you could choose what you like easily, We loved how he treated us .we enjoyed the special dinner at chubby cattle so much. Highly recommend this place. Definitely we will be back soon. read more

It was our first time dining at Chubby Cattle, but we had an awesome experience. We didn't have a reservation, so the estimated wait time was 30-45 minutes at about 6pm on a Wednesday evening. This was an accurate estimate, they texted us just at the 30 minute mark and we had 5 minutes to get back to the restaurant after walking around the mall to kill time. Though later, I overheard the wait was 1-1.5 hrs, so we'll definitely be making reservations in the future! Our hostess gave us a quick runthrough of how the tiers and the self-service stations worked. From there, our experience only got better. While all the staff was incredibly helpful and friendly, shout out to Ferny, our server, for being so patient and awesome during our time there! He was very attentive, and answered any questions or requests we had. He definitely made it a memorable visit, and we'd be so happy to see him again. He also walked us through getting the points for our Chubby Club membership at the end when checking out. Just stellar service all around. The food was great, though there were a couple of items out of stock. I did miss out on the durian cheese which I was looking forward to since it was listed on the menu, but the staff kindly explained that the self-service items rotate for availability. The meat quality was delicious, though it wasn't always explained which meat was which when they were dropped off, so for a couple items we were guessing what we were eating. The marbling on the meat made it tasty, and everything was brought to our table soon after ordering on the provided tablet. The ordering system on the tablet is intuitive and easy to navigate, making it a simple matter to order. I definitely signed up for the Chubby Club ONE membership, especially after hearing that you get points to redeem towards your birthday meal. All in all, I can only hope that the food and service at my local Wagyu House will be as good as what we experienced here at the Topanga location. read more

We had a great experience even though we had to wait almost an hour to get seated. It was worth the wait, everything tasted amazing and our server Ferny was the best! We'll be back soon! Thank you :) read more

I got the gold tier, it was a nice option to try the "tasting experience" as it was our first time, but honestly could have done without it. This place is more on the pricier side, but for the silver tier, it's a solid opt. There were a few items on the menu that we tried that we did not like at all, it had to be taken away lol but there were a lot of items we did enjoy! Our server nick was knowledgeable and friendly. This is a type of restaurant where you order through the tablet and the food comes to your table, the server does come around often to check in on you and to change the grills. Jasper was also really good at taking away any of our empty/ dirty dishes every time he dropped off food. When I first arrived, I was trying to get the host attention so that I could get checked in but she is not welcoming and bit rude. She is constantly looking down at her tablet then walking away. Then just calls whoever is next on the tablet, not acknowledging anyone new coming in! Me and another guest were so confused we had to flag her down to get checked in which is so odd. I've never been to a restaurant where a host made us feel like we are an inconvenience to her!! Anyway,after we did check in, we had to wait another 20 mins or so for our table to be ready. Lowkey being added to the wait yourself vs reservation seems like the same wait time which defeats the purpose of a reservation. read more

Chubby Cattle - Barbeque Near Me - Canoga Park, California

As a huge fan of Chubby Cattle, I am incredibly disappointed to say that this specific location has been a miss ever since it opened. I've given it three chances now, and each visit has been a poor experience. After my most recent visit, I felt compelled to finally write a review. We ordered the highest tier (Diamond), expecting a premium experience, but our server, Kai, was completely rude and unprofessional. Throughout the night, he barely checked on us or cleared our plates. Instead, he repeatedly approached our table just to scold us about having only 30 minutes left. When last call approached, we placed a larger order to wrap up our meal. Kai came over and lectured us about the size of the order, warning us that we would have to pay for leftovers even though we ended up finishing absolutely everything. When we tried to put in one final item before the system even shut down, he arbitrarily told us he was canceling it because we "couldn't order anymore." It is incredibly frustrating to be paying customers spending over $600, only to be spoken to so disrespectfully about ordering food during valid service hours. To top it off, after dropping off the check and taking our payment, we went to get dessert. Kai approached us yet again and told us we needed to leave, essentially kicking us out of the restaurant. We've been to so many Chubby concepts and never have once been treated like this. read more

We've been here a total of two times and each time has been amazing! We had Nick and Kai serving us and they've been amazing. Always checking in on us, making sure we get the best service, and just vibed with them. They're so easy to chat up. It's more expensive than your AYCE experience but it's really worth it especially for special occasions. It's a sit down upscale JBBQ spot and while I love their meats, I think about their lobster roll, Wagyu slider, and carpaccio the most alongside their unlimited milk tea and egg tarts. Next time we come, we hope we get to run into Nick and Kai again! They both work really hard and the quality of their service definitely shows. read more

We were here a couple months ago, and tonight we are back to celebrate my hubby's birthday...and yes, I'm happy happy to say service is 100% on point, super nice and helpful. I also learned tonight, just in case if you were wondering...On Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays it is only Walk-In no reservations...wait time varies, but Mon thru Thursday you can make reservations and also do walk-in's. We still love the choices from the digital menu, and totally enjoyed the birthday jingle surprise!! OH! I love love their Earl Grey roll cake!! I had 2 slices!! (Gasp)! It's totally fun inside! I love the interior designs. read more

Delicious food and stellar service! Absolutely worth the wait and the price. This was my first time dining at Chubby Cattle, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. There's a variety of meat to choose from, from rich and savory wagyu to thinner briskets. All meat is very high quality cuts, taste amazing even without sauce. The sushi was just OK to me. Some of the rice was undercooked and so randomly crunchy in some parts, and the taste of the fish was just acceptable. The hand rolls were pretty good, though. Love the assortment of sides and appetizers to choose from, and the self service drinks, salads, desserts, and sides. There's even dim sum! And the slushies are so good. I actually didn't like the milk tea much, too creamy and sweet for me, but YMMV. There's just so much to eat and drink here, and the portions are just right. Loved the ambiance and the service. The only drawback was the wait time (quite long on a weekend for lunch) and the fact that it got super smoky in the area we sat. Even the restrooms were noticeably smoky. However, our table and others in the area were moved to a section with significantly better ventilation. It seems like ventilation could be a recurring issue here, but they also seem to be aware of it and can shift your table somewhere better if it gets too smoky. Overall, highly recommend this place! read more

Chubby Cattle in Woodland Hills, located inside the Westfield Topanga Mall, is a super fun and elevated Korean BBQ-style experience featuring Japanese wagyu. It's easy to get to, on the bottom floor, next to Target. It gets super busy, so make sure to go super early to put your name down. Oh! And make sure you come hungry. The atmosphere is modern, lively, and upscale compared to your typical KBBQ. You're given a set dining time, and there's also a 7-minute window in which you can place each order, which can feel a little stressful at first since you're trying to decide, order, cook, and eat all at once. I took a few pictures but we probably had 30 more plates and with the time constraints, it was hard! We went with the Silver Tier, and it was amazing. The quality of the meat was excellent, especially the Japanese wagyu, which was rich, tender, and full of flavor. Everything we ordered tasted high quality and well worth it. There's also a walk-up area where you can grab extras like fresh vegetables, curry, soup, corn/sweet potato with cheese, desserts, and even a wagyu hamburger, which we heard was delicious. The milk teas were also really good and a nice pairing with the meal. The experience can feel a bit overwhelming at first, but our server Tyler was incredible. He helped us put in our first order, gave great recommendations, and made sure we understood how everything worked. His attentiveness really made the experience smooth and enjoyable. Overall, Chubby Cattle is a unique, high-quality wagyu BBQ experience that's definitely worth trying. Just be ready for a fast-paced start - and if you get Tyler, you're in great hands! We'll definitely be back! **Tip** Sign up for their yearly membership. The initial cost and what you save pays for itself. read more

Chubby Cattle is beautifully decorated, well serviced, and has delicious food. I probably won't go again. The good - all the food was fresh with plenty of variety. Buffet options were great too. There a rice machine that serves exactly the amount of rice you want, like R2D2 scooping your portion. I really liked the wagu stew and all the meats. I would skip the sushi. The bad - the dining experience, while fun, was not relaxing at all. There is a timer that counts down like a game show, ticking time bomb. When the timer finishes, you order your limited number of dishes and the timer stars again. It feels like a game show to maximize your orders rather than tasting a variety of beautifully aged fatty meats. The restaurant itself is clean but very congested. I would recommend checking it out, but I'll be making return trips to the chubby cattle in Vegas read more

Came on a Friday night with a party of 5, waitlist was 60 minutes, and we were seated in the very back at a table with a chair at the end, it was very crowded at the bar. They also ran out of miso soup bowls and spoons.... You also have to walk all the way to the front to get your soda/water but the day I came, they also ran out of ice so the sushi chef had to grab ice from his ice machine for us.... Felt rushed, got introduced 3 servers...... felt like this location doesn't serve well to larger crowds, but thank you Kai and Cid for helping us through our experience..... read more

Parking: it's located 1sr floor of Topango Camyon b Target. Lots of parking space especially if you come before 11AM on a Sunday and walk around before they open at 12PM. Make sure to put your name on the Wait List available (tablet) by Chubby Cattle's door. Service: Tyler walk is to our "VIP" table, and his service is superb. Checks us if we needed anything. Food: Was a good and clean selection from American Wagyu (beef) to Sushi selection. Enough as a Silver member. All in all, it was great to celebrate special occasion or when you are craving both A5 wagyu and/or sushi. read more

Had an amazing time here with my cousins: CID helped us a lot and cooked our premium meats. The food tasted delicious and the service was great. The place has a casual ambiance that is good for family and friends. They have three tiers of AYCE and I always get the gold tier because I feel like it has great value. Their salt is very unique and pairs well with the meat. We loves the thin-sliced beef tongue, A5 Brisket, and miso beef. We waited about 25-30 minutes on a Friday evening. This location is in the mall across from Target. They also have a bar where you can get milk tea, desserts, kimchi, fruits, and condiments, among other things. read more

Chubby Cattle - Barbeque Near Me - Canoga Park, California

We waited about 50 minutes for a table at 6:30pm on a Tuesday, which is wild (but accurate according to the original quoted wait time). By this time, some of the things I really wanted to try (beef tongue, wagyu enoki, fruity wagyu, fried tofu, chicken karaage etc) were sold out. The rest of the wagyu cuts were good, but the thin cuts were harder to cook as they easily stick to the grill. I can see the appeal of this location relative to others: the beverage bar, "dim sum", salad bar, curry/miso dispenser, grab and go wagyu burgers/egg tarts, and dessert station are unique, though the stations can get messy, and takes a bit of time to be refilled. mini milk tea dispenser for people that are waiting is cool and generous. Unfortunately, the novelty makes for lack of quality. We tried almost everything on the Silver Tier ($58), all of which were underwhelming except for - Durian sweet potato: can actually taste the durian! Goes delightfully well with the melted cheese - Egg Tart: flaky and does the job - earl gray roll: soft, fluffy, not overly sweet - carpaccio: not fishy, decent sized cuts. Baked salmon had more rice than i'd like tho. - takoyaki: crispy outside, sizeable octopus inside. Worth a try - jasmine/samurai (pandan like flavor) MT Don't recommend: - the "dim sum" if you're expecting anything authentic as the shu mai is filled with rice, and the dumpling with a weird shrimp paste. The har gow-like one was probably the better tasting one to try. - tom yum soup: it's like tart water, though the mussels and shrimp weren't bad - miso soup: no tofu/seaweed - chicken cartilage: too hard to chew - curry: lukewarm, flavor lacking. Tender meat tho Service: The hostess who took us in pointed us out to the different stations, which was nice, but I think she got distracted because once we sat at the table, she started talking to a coworker and quickly left... we didn't know what to wait for lol. We kinda awkwardly sat for a few minutes until Anthony came by who was great! He explained things clearly and was quick to offer grill changes. Parking: go through the owensmouth entrance for the mall! Plenty of spots Ultimately, I prefer the SGV locations. Prob won't be back for awhile read more

Why Chubby Cattle? - Quality meat and a good amount of apps, cold dishes, desserts, drinks, soups, and hot dishes - Servers can help you cook - Fast touchscreen ordering system Why Not Chubby? - The time limit makes it difficult to eat and enjoy your experience especially as a group. By the time you understand the ordering system, cook your food and explore the salad bar area its up. - Top tier A5 meats are limited based on the package you get - They keep pushing their membership Would I come back? Maybe but it gets pricey per person Service 4/5 Good service from our server and the host/front desk area Ambience 4/5 Fairly clean despite the rush of people and amount of food/drink at the bar areas Food 4/5 My friend said it best "It's like an upscale Gyu-kaku" hahaha read more

Shout out to Anthony A. for being the best server ever! We have been to the Monterey Park location but Anthony's customer service is what makes Topanga location shine! He is so friendly and courteous, he made our experience a smooth and great one. The wagyu meats did melt in our mouth and we kept the nigiri orders coming! My personal fave was the seared salmon nigiri. The vibes were very fast paced and all the sides as well as dessert were there for you to choose from. You do only have 90 minutes to dine but I think that's a perfect time frame-- we were stuffed! Chubby Cattle is definitely a must try! read more

If you're looking for a spot that hits every craving at once, this is it. It's definitely a splurge, but the quality and sheer variety justify the price tag for a special night out. The Food: From Wagyu to Matcha The Wagyu beef is the clear highlight--incredibly marbled and melt-in-your-mouth tender. But what sets this place apart is the versatility. Between the fresh sushi, savory Wagyu burgers, and a solid seafood selection, there's no shortage of high-end proteins. Don't sleep on the sweets and drinks: * Dessert: The matcha pastries provide a perfect, earthy contrast to the rich meal, and the other assorted pastries are surprisingly fresh. * Drinks: The strawberry slushy is refreshing, and having a soda dispensary on hand is a nice touch for convenience. The Experience & Logistics The ambiance is top-tier. The booths are plush and comfortable, which is essential because you'll want to take your time here. The tablet ordering system is incredibly intuitive; it keeps the service efficient and ensures you aren't constantly trying to wave down a server for your next round of Wagyu. Pro-Tip: Come hungry, as much as you can, and explore the "non-traditional" items. The Wagyu burger and the milk tea are standout additions that you don't usually find at a place like this and offers an all in one type of experience I would recommend to try at least once. read more

The service was on the slow side. Food was not my favorite. Thinking back I may just not be that much into meat. I think the burger was okay but ditch the American cheese, buns were not the best. My favorite part was the onions because I just love onions. The place is clean which is a huge bonus. Got some Portuguese style desert but was maybe not cooked all the way. The rice was really sticky and as a Persian it's just not the type of rice I'm used to so not sure I'd go for it again. Beef was very tender yet too salty. Well done but too salty. Gravy was also abundant. Some more veggies maybe? Ambience seems too casual but it's not a very cheap place. Maybe I'm being too harsh. Just make sure you really like meat. read more

Chubby Cattle at Topanga Mall is a really fun and different take on AYCE Korean BBQ/hot pot. The vibe is modern and high-energy with lots of tech touches, this location the food is delivered by actual servers (not robots like some people expect from other locations). They have three tiers of wagyu you can choose from, including higher-end options, and honestly the meat is the star here. The wagyu is sooo good super tender and melts in your mouth. Definitely worth it if you're going for the meat quality. The sliders were really good and juicy, and the rice station is super cool you just put your bowl down, press a button, and it automatically fills your bowl with rice. I wasn't really into the sushi though. I've had way better elsewhere, so I wouldn't come here for that. But for wagyu and the overall experience, it's a good time. Overall, fun spot, good energy, and I'd come back mainly for the wagyu. Does get busy..but you also eat fast lol read more

I've been to Chubby Cattle before during grand opening weekend and had a great experience, which is why we were so excited to bring my mom for her first visit this past Saturday (2/28). We hyped it up to her, so she came in really excited to try it. We expected the one-hour wait and put ourselves on the list -- no issues there. But once we were seated, we immediately noticed how hot it was inside. It felt like there was very little ventilation, which made it uncomfortable throughout the meal. Unfortunately, quite a few items weren't stocked during our 90-minute visit. When I first went to the bar, there was no kimchi. The miso soup had no tofu. I let our server Anthony know, and to his credit, he was very kind and proactive -- he went to the back to notify the kitchen and came back to let me know it had been refilled. He even offered to grab it for me, which I appreciated. However, when I went back up, there was still no tofu, so I had to flag someone else down to ask again. Several items labeled on the table were also unavailable the entire time: no shumai, no soup dumplings, no octopus dumplings, and no lobster dumplings. The steam baskets weren't even out and never appeared during our visit. The chocolate layered crepe was only refilled once, and there were no egg tart refills for most of our time there. There was also no more refills on the milk tea - they had put a sign over it. On our last call, we ordered one more round of scallops, but they never came -- and we had already paid the bill. Eventually, another server brought them over, but by then our grill had been turned off. When we let her know, she asked, "Do you want it or not?" We ended up taking them, and she turned the grill back on. I had also been waiting for fresh egg tarts and let Anthony know I was specifically holding out for those. When they finally came out, I grabbed a few while we were finishing the scallops. Shortly after sitting down, Anthony came by and let us know we only had two minutes left -- not realizing another server had just dropped off our last order of scallops. I mentioned there was no way I could eat piping hot egg tarts in two minutes, and he kindly told me I could take them since we were already over our time limit. I want to emphasize that Anthony was polite and did his best, and I still left a pretty good tip because I know some of these issues are likely operational and not entirely on the servers. That said, for the price point, it was disappointing to see so many items unavailable and not being restocked consistently. I really loved our first visit, which is why this experience was such a letdown. I hope this was just an off day, because I do think this place is great -- but consistency and fully stocked options are important, especially when you're paying a premium price. read more

First time doing AYCE Wagyu here. We got the Chubby Cattle Plus membership (Gold tier) and let's just say--it's 100% worth it for the quality and how much you can actually eat. You're not limited at all and everything feels premium. I really liked the self-service setup too. Being able to grab your own milk teas, desserts, and slushies whenever you want just makes the whole experience better--and everything actually tasted good, not just filler. If you like sushi, you have to try the Wagyu nigiri. So good. Honestly all of their nigiri hit--no complaints there. Also, Cid was our server and he was amazing. Helped us cook the Wagyu at the start so we didn't mess it up, which we needed lol. Super attentive, really nice, and just on top of everything the whole time. Easy five stars for him. Overall, really good food, really good service, and just a fun experience. Definitely worth it and I'd come back. read more

So glad this place has opened so close to us! It's an all you can eat Japanese bbq with so many amazing food options. Located on the first level of the topanga mall, next to target. Parking is ample so should not be an issue. Reservations should be made because since it's fairly new, wait times can be as high as 2 hours. Once seated they give you 90 min. Food was a 5/5! They have 3 packages you can choose from and the main difference is the type of beef. Silver, gold and diamond tier, one is American Wagyu and the other Japanese. They also offer a variety of sides, drinks and desserts. Staff was amazing and most everything came out quickly. Inside was very clean and spacious and unlike other bbq places, there was no strong odor. Must try dishes are the wagyu burger and the dim sum, aside from the bbq. Will absolutely be coming back!! read more

Alright party people the old Japanese spot at Topanga has officially said its goodbyes, and in its place enters Chubby Cattle... and let me just say, woohoo! The ambiance still carries a similar vibe to the previous restaurant, but the energy feels quicker and more upbeat. The wait is VERY long and I suggest you put your name down and go shopping before you eat. That said Rennard,friend slow it down just a little when explaining the menu, especially for first-timers. We're trying to absorb all the goodness! Huge shoutout to Lewis though! He truly made our first visit memorable. He walked us through everything clearly, patiently, and with care. We love a server who understands the assignment. And thanks for the joke,Haha. Let's talk FOOD. We ordered a handful of items off the Gold Tier menu which is the more reccomended option, including the A5 Wagyu(super good),Typically my go to Wagyu Short Rib(very tasty), and brisket (chef's kiss) and the must-have Wagyu nigiri and whew. Mind. Blown. Absolutely decadent and melt-in-your-mouth delicious. And the Samurai Milk Tea?? Why did I only get one? Rookie mistake. It was so good it's basically my excuse to go back ASAP. It didn't stop there the corn was out of this world, and the egg tart?? Oh my gosh. The sides just kept getting better and better. I left happy and very satisfied. Parking tip: since it's located at the mall (hello, Westfield Topanga), parking can be hectic especially on weekends like today. Plan accordingly and give yourself a few extra minutes. Overall, such a fun first experience. I'll definitely be back for more wagyu and that milk tea. read more

Did I forget to post a review? My partner and I were back for the fourth(?) time tonight, and it was reliably good! The photos are from a previous visit, so items might be different now... I was too hungry to think about updating pictures during today's visit. We go for the gold menu when we bring someone for the first time (to really enjoy a bit of the nicer cuts), but when we're just there to enjoy some grilled meat by ourselves, we're happy with the silver. Today, we got the gold and had the A5 short rib and the A5 top blade for the special meats. The short rib was probably what we enjoyed more today, but the top blade was solid, too. The top blade was seasoned with a soy(?)-based sauce, and it looks like it has a bit of grated daikon on top. It's cut thin, and our server, Lewis, was kind enough to cook it for us - it gets cooked on one side, then gets rolled up and cut into four pieces. It finishes cooking with residual heat. The short rib just has the nicely marbled meat shine on its own (smaller, thicker cut pieces - not super thick though). Both were good, but just depends on what you prefer. Our party also got the scallop and unagi. I don't eat much seafood, but my partner enjoyed both. He got the scallop twice! It had some minced garlic and a little pat of butter on each scallop. He ended up asking for some unagi sauce (thanks, Lewis!), and that made the grilled unagi perfect for him. We always get a number of different ayce items, but we can hardly keep track of which is which. We usually make sure to get the A5 brisket and short rib, but otherwise, it just depends on what we (and our party) feel like trying. It's always nice to be able to grab rice, miso soup, kimchi (particularly solid today), seaweed salad, corn cheese, vegetables, fruit, swiss rolls, milk tea, etc. from the self-serve area. We noticed the salad is now here, too, rather than being an item to order. Despite how busy it seemed, our server Lewis did a great job of giving an intro for our first-time guest (my mom!), checking on us, helping us grill the special meats (so we didn't overcook those ones!), and applying our membership and NFT discounts correctly. (Actually, I think he was our server during our first visit, too, and he was just as energetic and eager to help today as he was then!) The solid food, service, and experience have made this one of our newer go-to spots for a nice dinner that's in the valley! read more

Went in on a Thursday night with a reservation for 4. Let me first acknowledge that our server Cid was very helpful, super nice, friendly and attentive. Because of him, I gave a 20% tip out of the 4 diamond meals we had. That's over $434.55 for 4 people. Now for the food - the Wagyu selection is not really AYCE. you only get 2 Wagyu premium meats per person. The photo attached is the Wagyu for 4 people - max order. The rest of regular cuts are AYCE. In addition, you can only order 10 items every 7 minutes. The buffet bar is for the sauces and sides, corn, rice, and dumplings. There's a soft serve ice cream, and self serve soda machine. They DO NOT serve alcohol here. Not even a beer to go with the meats. They do not allow a bottle of wine either because they don't have a liquor license. For the ambience - it was super loud. The busboys were throwing dirty plates at every corner where they have the dirty carts. It was like having broken loud dishes sound the entire night. I had better expectations in terms of cleanliness as well. The floors were sticky. The 90% + of the crowd were young college kids age group. The entire experience is not the same as a good bbq in k-town. If you're expecting for a nice experience like niku x - this is not the place. 5 steps below that. It's not for everyone. It wasn't for me. read more

One of my fave AYCE spots, so I'm super happy they finally opened a location closer to me! This location is on the first floor by Target, and I definitely recommend parking in the parking structure along Owensmouth for easier access. Came on a Friday night and waited about 1 hour and 30 minutes, which honestly wasn't surprising for a busy Friday. Ordering is done through an iPad and you get 90 minutes to eat. We got the Gold Tier for 2 people ($150, or $143 with membership). Unfortunately, our grill was a little faulty since the fire only really worked on one side, which made cooking a bit difficult. The meats were a little hit or miss this time too, especially the A5 brisket which was tougher. But one thing that NEVER disappoints across every location is the salmon carpaccio. Easily my favorite item on the menu! Service was also really fast when it came to serving food and clearing plates, which made the experience smoother despite the wait. Overall, not a bad spot. read more
