This was my first time at chubby cattle bbq and let me tell you, it was the best experience ever. Ordering was kind of chaotic because there's so many types of wagyu to choose from but once I placed my order, I got to look around. They have so many side dishes and they even had wagyu burgers! It's unbelievable that I can have premium unlimited wagyu from Japan and Australia here in Duluth, Georgia. I went with my mom here for our mother and daughter date and I got the gold tier! my personal favorite was the a5 miyazaki wagyu short rib and I was told to pair it with the special salt they had and it literally enhances the flavor of the wagyu as it melts in your mouth. My favorite part of dining at chubby cattle was being able to try so many types of wagyu in one sitting. the service was excellent as the servers were very friendly and our orders would come out really quickly. Restaurants that cook meat tend to be hot but I noticed that being inside the restaurant didn't make me sweat at all. This place is perfect for date nights or even for families and friends! I cannot wait to be back here soon.

Ok. Uber Eats. Got a deal. Happy to try it out. Everything came as ordered and prompt. Waygu sliders were delicious. Dumplings were great. Yada yada I would eat here again. 10 out of 10 would eat again the dumplings and burger again. There is no wagyu beef stew dish is either Asian or wagyu. It was a nice beef stew. That was fine. My mom made this on Sundays. Potatoes and carrots with a nice gravy. The meat was a joke. I've never had so many grissley pieces and it was 90 % rice. this was a sinewy piece of blade steak not wagyu. The beef was on top but the bottom was all rice.

Great AYCE! Our server, Tony, was awesome. He explained how the menu worked, and he helped us grill our food. He worked his section really quickly and I was really impressed at how he was able to manage everyone. Lots of parking. We came on a Saturday and it took almost an hour to get seated. So if you're going to come at peak time, come a little hungry but not too hungry. It's a fast-paced restaurant, but you can tell that the employees here work hard to keep the spaces clean and all the items at the buffet field.

We love Wagyu house and so this was a nice surprise, much more relaxed atmosphere but same great meats. Rez cooked a lot of our meats for us which was very pleasant, usually we cook our own. If you come here sign up for the club you can redeem points and get a bday meal! All you can eat Wagyu is always a great idea!

Great spot for high quality AYCE KBBQ! Even at the lowest tier there's so many meat options to choose from. My boyfriend and I tried nearly one of each plate, excluding some pork and the chicken options, and by the time we did that we were near full. Our favorites were definitely the Wagyu Finger Meat and the Wagyu Steak! These two cuts were the most flavorful in our opinion. Least favorites were any of the green pepper cuts, but it's more of a flavor preference rather on my part. Our server, June, was super helpful and personable! He cooked a good portion of our meat and was good about changing our grill often. My one piece of feedback is that sometimes the meat would stick to the grill. When this happened, it was quite difficult to pry the meat off the grill. Pretty similar vegetable bar + appetizer bar offerings as the shabu location. They do have a few more dessert options here (crepe cake), but soft serve instead of ice cream. The rice dispenser here is pretty neat - you tap a button and it spits out a small mound of rice!

This was my first time in Chubby Cattle and I can say the it met my expectations. The restaurant is in a great location with easy parking, the atmosphere is nice with a lot of wood inside that makes you feel cozy. Very clean too. The lady attending me was very helpful explaining the system and even offering me to cook the meat if I want it. (I rather do it myself as part of the experience) The quality of the meat is really good, very tasty even without the sauces and the texture perfect. The salad and dessert bar have a lot of variety for every taste and the star is the rice machine, pretty cool how it dispense the rice automatically. Definitely worth the price but you have to go hungry so you take advantage of the whole menu. :)

Went on Saturday around 1pm. It was filled with decent amount of crowds. 5 of us (2 senior citizen/ get $11 off per person) We had the Silver Tier $58 There is 3 tiers Gold $78 Diamond $88 **this place is pricey but as they advertise it's Wagyu beef... All the meats were sliver thin , comes in plates (you can order 10 items per order with a tablet ) Once they arrive , you can order again as much as you want ** there's 90 minute time frame from time you order to eat & pay All the beef selections were good , tender & flavorful Sashimi , rolls also very good Tasted fresh They also have small buffet area; There's drinks, small selection of desserts , small sliders , hot dogs , rice , curry stew vegetables , etc... It's not a place I would frequent but the concept is fun with friends and family

Definitely a major step up from places like KPot, but they have some operational bottlenecks to work out. The ambiance is spot-on and gives off a great, authentic Asian vibe. More importantly, the quality of the meats was genuinely good. Service was extremely attentive. Our server actually took over flipping and cooking our food for us. It bordered on being a little excessive at times, but it wasn't a bad thing--just something to note if you prefer to manage the grill yourself My main critique is the pacing and the ordering rules. The food came out noticeably slow. On top of that, restricting a party of 5 to only 10 orders per round is way too limiting. If you have a group that can actually eat, you are going to spend a lot of time just waiting around for the next round. Overall: great food, cool vibe, but they need to adjust their order limits for larger tables."

Second time going because it was so good the first time! The line/wait can be long - you can make an advance reservation on Yelp though with how busy it is it's not always going to be an exact time you get seated but will definitely save you a lot of time. You can put yourself on the Yelp wait list when you show up but both times (on a Saturday) waits were up to 45-60 minutes easily, and that was at a fairly irregular time (4pm ish). Food is the main highlight, even at the lowest tier the meats are incredible and not very many poor choices on the list. You order from the tablet and can do up to a certain amount of meats per order, every 10 or so minutes. Some meats come salt and pepper seasoned, then there are different marinades to choose from too (miso, green pepper), all recommended. The "special salt" is great to dip the unmarinated meats and you can make your own sauce at a sauce bar. There's also a whole middle area with various sides (corn cheese, mushrooms, to extremely random stuff like soup and dumplings and Wagyu sliders), a rice dispensing machine, sauce bar, and salad/side bar. The sides ordered from the tablet are single serve to be aware of. Staff and service are excellent, with how busy it is it's surprising how often we got attention from the staff at each visit. Occasionally staff will cook for you, but definitely do not expect that to always be the case when it is busy. Ordering food is done via tablet and it comes out quickly. Sometimes so much so you order and get up to grab food from the middle and you'll come back to a big stack of plates. One of the only downsides is that the equipment on the table is a little janky - disposable grills, single use cutlery, you'd think for the price to get some silverware to eat with! It can be hard to use flimsy disposable utensils to eat some of the food with. Overall a huge recommendation - a bit of a splurge but if you're splurging on Asian bbq already...

Social media influencers influenced me yet again. A friend and I came here on January 1st, knowing we had to start the new year off the right way--with some good eats, of course. Right off the bat, we were told there's a time limit, along with rules about how often we can order and how many items we can place per round. This might be the first AYCE Asian BBQ spot I've been to with this many restrictions. We both ordered the Gold tier, and while the limitations are clearly stated, only being able to order one option from the Special Meats section and just one piece per person felt like another restriction, especially for the price. Regardless, we ordered as much as we could within the allotted time and genuinely enjoyed just about everything. That said, the wagyu options didn't really stand out compared to the regular selections. The side dishes were all great--I could've eaten the nigiri all night. To my surprise, my favorite bite of the evening was the braised pork, which isn't even on the main menu but located at the food bar. It was so good I immediately started looking up recipes to make it at home. The décor is nice, but the restaurant itself is pretty tight. There's a corner that acts as a bit of a blind spot where the fast-moving staff fly by--I almost got bumped several times. And finally, the push to upsell a membership at the end of the meal felt...odd. Very salesman-ish. Funnily enough its clearly working because one table across purchased one and the table in front of us already had a membership!

I just want to start off by saying if I was rating this place solely on service: 5 stars. Absolutely! The staff is so friendly and knowledgeable and they have the art of upsell down pat. Honestly, if I felt like the food was worth its price I would have bought a membership when our waiter offered it. And he was so friendly and charming I almost considered it! The ambience is also very edgy. The decor is very cool and the set up is intriguing. It's very gimmicky and photo worthy. It's one of those places that is very Instagram worthy. And what a unique concept! The self serve stations of rice and curry and drinks unfortunately the rice machine was out and took forever to restock as were the actual plates. I felt the curry was super oily. True to its name, this restaurant is heavy on the indulgence. And the portions are very smart and well thought out. These little plates come out with what you order on an iPad so that you can try a lot of different stuff. I was not thrilled with the order in which the food came out and I felt I was constantly reminding the staff of the side dishes I had ordered that were yet to come. The meats itself were not impressive at all. If the menu hadn't indicated I was ordering wagyu, I wouldn't have believed it. I found myself gravitating towards their sushi offerings, which were good but I didn't come to a place called Chubby Cattle to get sushi. TLDR: come one time to take pictures and it will be enough to last a life time.

We had a group of 4 but the table was extremely small. The table for 4 is probably only comfortable for 2 ppl with how much is ordered (10 every 6 mins) and it is small dishes. (4-5 pieces). They only give you 70 minutes to order and for Korean bbq and this made us feel extremely rushed so we couldn't enjoy for how expensive it is for the highest tier. They are strict on the 70 minutes too even though it was slow. It made us feel like we had to spam meat orders and not enjoy anything else offered. They were helpful when we first sat down. We pressed on the service call button and they never came later on in our meal. We kept looking around. Some staff walked around to change our grill and this was probably the only time we were able to find someone to ask for help towards the end of our meal. Their side dishes aren't great. I would suggest they highly work on the side dishes and time. It would make the experience a lot better since Wagyu is pretty fatty it can get tiring to eat it. Wouldn't come back and wouldn't recommend friends here either. The price isn't worth it. (88/pp Diamond tier) not including tip on top.

Chubby Cattle BBQ is a fancy all you can eat Japanese BBQ! It is the sister restaurant of Chubby Cattle Shabu and Wagyu House. The interior was beautifully decorated with warm lighting, traditional lanterns, and authentic signage that makes you feel like you are in Japan. This is a really popular restaurant, especially on the weekends so definitely get a reservation in if possible. Our server was really friendly as well and our food orders came out at different times. We got the Silver Tier which is the lowest tier and does not include the A5 meat which was fine. Some of the meats we got were the Iberico Pork, Wagyu Steak, Prime Angus Top Blade. I was not a big fan of the Iberico Pork but I really liked the Wagyu Brisket! The beef, specifically the wagyu, tastes the best here. The other meats are kind of average. I think that the sides at the Chubby Cattles are all pretty amazing. We got the Creamy Spicy Tom Yum Soup which was perfectly creamy and spicy. The Shrimp Tempura and Fry Mini Buns are also amazing... very hot to eat when they come out! I also got the Steamed Egg which tasted very airy, unlike the ones you get at KBBQ. I feel alright about Japanese BBQ, so I think that while this place is pretty nice, I probably would not come here again because of my taste preferences (I prefer thicker cuts of meat for BBQ as opposed to thinly sliced cuts). If anything, I would come back solely for the sides because they are so good!
