I was really excited for Chubby Cattle to be so close to home but sadly my family did not enjoy our experience. I understand why a restaurant would sit children all in the same section to spare other diners the noise, but in my family's case our five year old son does not get loud or get up from the table at all. The whole restaurant is already loud and crowded everywhere. In my opinion there's no need to sit kids all in one section. The 4-5 kids at the next table were absolutely obnoxious and I honestly don't like being lumped in with that just because I have a child too. The meat was delicious, no complaints at all. Sauce bar was good as well but there wasn't anything special. And the ponzu was not ponzu. It was very dark and thick just like a heavy soy sauce. No citrus flavor to it at all. The desserts were soggy and not very flavorful. The rice comes out of a machine which is a little off putting. There were no rice bowls near the machine and when I asked for bowls I was asked to wait two minutes yet nobody came out in two minutes so my family skipped rice altogether. We got the gold tier but throughout the whole speech the waitress had to give about different tiers and how to order, she never mentioned that the premium meats were only one order per person for the whole experience and you cannot choose the same for each person. So if all you want is ONE of those premium meats, that's it for the whole table and there's only four small pieces in an order. Did not enjoy the upselling of the membership. It was mentioned twice and nobody wants to go to dinner to be sold anything. It cheapened the experience. It's supposed to be "Japanese yakiniku" but there wasn't anything very Japanese about Chubby Cattle besides the meat grilling. And it's an electric grill, not charcoal. The hot dishes that come from the kitchen pretty much never made it to our table so we had to ask the server to cancel them as we were coming up on our 1.5 hour limit at the table. This spot would be fun I guess for a friends night out but definitely not great for a nice family dinner. There's no bar or any alcohol and we had to ask for everything including napkins and extra utensils. Cups are paper to-go cups. Just not what I'd like to see for the price we paid. read more

Great service and attentiveness, good quality was great as well. CId our service was awesome. Thanks for having us. We will come back very soon read more

Cid was awesome! He took care of us the whole time. Food was amazing! Shrimps I wish I found out right away. Good size! Buuurp! Will come back! read more

Lewis is top tier, the cherry on top to make an indulgent experience over the top. Gotta do Gold tier, or above to experience the A5 indulgence. Lewis' support team is equally amazing, so smooth with how they remove plates from your table that you won't even notice how good they are. Worth every penny! read more

Absolutely incredible experience at Chubby Cattle BBQ, and a huge shoutout to Allen for making it unforgettable. From the moment we walked in, Allen went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. His knowledge of the menu, recommendations, and attention to detail were next level. He didn't just serve us--he made the whole experience feel personalized and premium. The service was fast, friendly, and genuine. You can tell he actually cares about customers enjoying their time, not just going through the motions. Every question we had was answered with confidence, and he made sure we got the best out of everything we ordered. If you're going to Chubby Cattle BBQ, ask for Allen. He's the kind of person who turns a great meal into a spectacular experience. 10/10 service. read more

Food and service was good! Happy with all the options and Cid was very attentive and nice. Ambiance was good as well, last visit there was an issue with the AC but now it seems like it's fixed and working well. Only issue I had was our grill cover was off and since I was wearing shorts my knee touched the bottom of the grill and it was extremely hot. Otherwise I had a good experience! read more

If you're looking for an unforgettable dining experience, Chubby Cattle absolutely delivers. From the moment we walked in, everything felt elevated! What truly made our night exceptional was our server, Tyler. He went above and beyond in every way, he was attentive without being overbearing, incredibly knowledgeable about the menu, and made perfect recommendations that we loved. You can tell he genuinely cares about the guest experience, and it made such a difference. Between the quality of the food and Tyler's outstanding service, this is easily one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time. 10/10 -- we'll absolutely be back, and we'll be asking for Tyler every time. Ps. Get the membership! read more

We've always enjoyed coming here--it's one of our favorite spots, and the food and service have consistently been great. That's why this experience was so disappointing. Our bill before tip was $150 (my wife happened to take a photo of it), and we intended to leave a standard 20% tip. Unfortunately, I no longer have the final receipt (I must've threw it away), but when the charge posted to my credit card, the total came out to $199. That means the tip was increased to about 32%, which is not what we authorized. I want to be fair--mistakes can happen--but this is a pretty big difference and definitely concerning. It took away from what's usually a great experience for us. I'd recommend double-checking your receipt and final charge if you dine here. Hoping this was just an isolated issue, but it's something others should be aware of.  We were there on Friday, March 27- afternoon. read more

Tyler was amazing super helpful loved all his recommendations!! Superb!! The food was delicious! We will definitely be coming back!

Quality of the meats are amazing. Great selection. Unfortunately the service was disappointing. The guy that took over the main server rushed us out. Literally kept walking where we were seated and told us multiple times they needed the table. Mind you my family and i WERE STILL EATING! After paying $200+ to be rushed out is insane. (Took us longer to eat because our grill died on us about 15times). read more

Alyssa V made our first visit to this location such a great experience. She was incredibly attentive and truly went above and beyond to meet our needs. She seamlessly swapped tables for us when we needed more space, checked in at all the right moments, and even gave us a little extra time when our food was delayed coming out. She had napkins ready the moment we asked, small details, but they made a big difference. Her positive attitude, professionalism, and genuine care really stood out. Service like this is what makes you want to come back. Thank you, Alyssa, for such a wonderful first experience! read more

Have been to Monterey Park and Little Tokyo locations but this was our first time here. I like this location a lot more than the other two locations. There are more selections of everything and self-serve bars for a lot of the food, desserts and beverages, although it did seem to get crowded /chaotic going between the self serve stations and your table. Being a Monday night, there was virtually no wait. This was a pleasant surprise after reading reviews of two hour wait times. Must just be the weekends. Btw park by Target, or the Target side of the Owensmouth garage. We got the silver menu ($49 for members.) The tabletop iPad you order from was more elaborate than at other locations. Easier to navigate. Our server Anthony was super friendly and helpful. The food: Miso wagyu chuck eye: thin, flavorful, hard to cook/sticks to grill. Full blood thick cut wagyu short rib: like standard steak, on the leaner side. Wagyu brisket: thin but not too thin, sauce make it slightly more flavorful than other cuts. I think this was my favorite. Wagyu skirt steak: thick cutlet, comes with dipping sauce, tasty but a little chewy. Scallion pan fried dumplings: meh. Salmon hand roll is spicy/ has spicy mayo, be careful. The yellowtail nigiri as good as any sushi bar. Cheese corn better here than other locations; more corn and less cheese. Cheesy sweet potato good, but maybe too cheesy. Overall I think the silver menu won't leave you deprived but sometime I'll spurge on the gold menu. The diamond menu doesn't seem worth it unless you'll want 2 premium cuts pp versus the one premium cut pp from the gold menu. Looking forward to going back. read more

I went to the Chubby Cattle in Westfield Topanga during their soft opening. The food was good, as was the service. My server, Alyssa was great. The ambiance was nice too. It's all you can eat, but there are 3 tiers, with more premium items in the more expensive tiers. I ordered the cheapest tier (Silver) and found that the quality and quality were very good. I especially enjoyed the salads in the Self Service Station and the shrimp tempura read more

Chubby Cattle was good, but not amazing. Anthony was very friendly and explained all the tier options clearly. We picked the gold, but I think the silver would have been good for our family as well. The only thing that bugged me was feeling rushed to eat since we had 90 minutes. I like to relax and enjoy kbbq. Maybe it works for others but not for me. read more

We came here as a group of six and had one of the most disappointing customer service experiences we've had in a long time. We arrived 30 minutes before opening and waited patiently, but multiple groups who showed up after us were seated first. We checked in with the host to make sure we were on the list, and nothing changed -- still getting passed over with no explanation. We eventually asked to speak with a manager, hoping someone would address what was clearly a mistake, but instead we were completely brushed off. No apology, no attempt at service recovery, nothing. When we were finally seated, they put us at a table clearly meant for four people, which made the whole experience even more uncomfortable. For a place that's supposed to prioritize guest experience, this fell far short.. A little communication, acknowledgment, or effort would have gone a long way. read more

I recently visited this new Chubby Cattle BBQ spot, and let me tell you, they've got an incredible spread! From appetizers, meats, fresh sushis, sides, desserts, and fruits, there's something for everyone. We opted for the diamond tier, and omg it was a feast! There were so many options of A5 Wagyu to choose from that we didnt even maximize our limited items The sushis and toro were absolutely fresh and had the perfect texture. You can pick your own veggies and fruits! Honestly, I'm so excited to go back and try all the other amazing dishes I missed this time because I was so stuffed. Great and friendly staff. This location is inside the mall. read more

I'm so glad they open in San Fernando Valley. Been wanting to try their original location in Rowland Heights. For its first week open, we had a 2 hour wait. Meats were delicious and Nessie, our server was very helpful and attentive. AYCE $55 for Silver Tier. 20% off for Seniors = 65yo and up read more

Thanks Tyler! Great service, great food, def coming back again. The free drinks and the assortment of foods you can get yourself really makes the place a fun experience. Ordering yourself on the iPad also makes it seamless and pain free. read more

First visit: It was yummy! Got the gold tier. Was worth it to try some A5 options. Would be ok with doing the silver tier next time. The meats in the silver tier are just as good. Everything tasted high quality and looked well marbled. Includes dessert which matters if you're a sweet treat after a meal type person. Joseph V was our server and he was so nice and incredibly helpful. We signed up for a membership with his help. So we'll definitely be back. read more

Service was amazing. We met the general manager Cheyo.. he was so professional in his suit...warm and welcoming. I can see he listens to people's concern. I mentioned how the security is trying to kick us out of the mall section area and told security we have reservations. He said he'd look into this. Service is A + , thus makes us happy and wants to come back. Niomi, our waitress was amazing . She took her time to explain the way it works here. Though we were the last ones there. We never felt rushed. Thanks cheyo and Niomi. The establishment is clean. Loved the automatic rice machine that drops the rice right Into the bowl. Loved how they have a large screen on each booth to choose your orders. The bathrooms were clean. Rhe restaurant is a good size.. not as big as rowland heights. But happy it is now located in woodland hills. The wagyu was perfect, they served everything on time. the meat was thin but tasty. All you can eat wagyu. They had specialty meats that included caviar, and high quality a 5 wagyu. Loved how Niomi was cooking it for us. They had an array of assorted desserts, soft mochi, cakes. Self serves drinks. Thanknyou. Well be back again. read more

Saw on social media that chubby cattle in westfield topanga has finally opened. I ran and of course, chubby cattle did not disappoint. I drive far for chubby cattle, and I'm so glad this spot has opened close by. It was their soft opening this week but everything was pretty spot on. They have their self served: drink station - (soda, milk teas, slushees), rice station (including curry if you want), dumpling station, veggie / fruit station, sauce station, sides and desserts. Our server Naomi was so nice and helpful in explaining what kind of cuts the meat were and how we should pair the fatty cuts with veggies to balance it out. Of course we tried all of the wagyu we can try through the Gold Tier Menu. Ambiance was very lively (love the music), and hip. Every server there were nice enough to greet you or help you with what you need. I had a membership so the price of our bill was discounted a bit. I would highly recommend this place. It is quite an experience. A little pricey but there's no other place that serves these types of meat and cuts! read more

Fernie was the best!!! So friendly and always checked in with my husband and I for a first time experience. Will definitely come back.

It was my boyfriend's birthday so I decided to surprise him with a visit to Chubby Cattle. We were both super impressed with the service that Joseph, our server, provided! He was friendly and explained how the membership and ordering works. In addition, Joseph went above and beyond by helping us cook the 2 oz A5 striploin. Everything tasted great and we can't wait to go back! read more

We were lucky enough to get an invite to their soft opening inside of the mall and I am so glad we were able to. Service was on point today as they were definitely trying to impress for the first day. Tyler was our service and he was great, extremely personable and attentive to us. We went with the gold tier which is honestly pricey but a great deal for the quality and amount of AYCE wagyu meats you can get. Beautiful self service bar with so many unique and staple sides, vegetable bar, drinks, desserts, and soft serve. Literally any you could think of they have for you. Definitely recommend coming here and it's well worth the price read more

Lewis was awesome. Didn't overcook our Wagyu special cut. He took great care of us. Place is awesome.

What made me decide to try this place over going to competitor is the outstanding reviews from such a short time being opened..While the wait was long, I can definitely say that it's worth it. Also it's a brand new opening so a wait is expected. Everyone I met was so (and genuinely) nice. I honestly felt like the entire experience was premium from beginning to end. I met my sever Tyler and he was just wonderful. He was so kind and when I asked him for recs, he was excited to take over and put in his suggestions. He went above and beyond and helped me cook my meat, and made sure I was happy with the flavor and quality, and consistently checked on me (and the rest of his patrons). Do yourself a favor and do not forget to order: M8-9 Chuck Eye With Chubby Srirachi, the A5 Wagyu Fois Gras sushi, and the A5 Wagyu Uni Caviar Nigiri. The diamond tier is definitely a premium price but I think worth it considering the experience and quality. While TikTok reviews have mentioned to try the Wagyu curry and minced Wagyu, I wasn't a big fan of either (I'm not judging it because the quality was good. I just know that I have an unpopular opinion and aversion of big onion pieces in my food lol). The Xiao long Bao was nothing to write home about (but as an included side dish, I'm not complaining. We're literally here for the meat). The lobster dumpling was cool. I didn't want to focus too much on the side dishes but I did try the kimchi and while I personally think it needs more spice, I enjoyed the vinegary taste cutting through the melty Wagyu. I honestly was going to leave before trying the desert but I had remembered that they have mille crepe cake slices. I had the chocolate one ..and I honestly regret not trying the vanilla one as well. The chocolate version was at a perfect temperature, the chocolate was so smooth but not overwhelmingly sweet, and I believe it might have been Belgian chocolate (correct me if I'm wrong). Literally the perfect ending to my meal. I'm bringing my friends here. Thank you for the wonderful dinner. Oh and I *seriously* need to know where I can purchase a whole Mille crepe cake (or at least purchase slices to go) read more
