Not only is the food delicious but it's also such a fun experience. They have a pretty good variety of veggies and meat and I love the seasonings they offer on the side. We even got a few hot dishes that were also great. The molten tofu was slightly spicy and super flavorful while still retaining the taste of tofu, and I loved the seasoning they put on top. The foil wrapped enoki mushroom was juicy and also flavorful. I've never had skewered brussel sprouts before but it was an unexpected favorite for me as well as other people in my group. The grilled pineapple was also a group favorite. Can't wait to come back again.

I came here for lunch on 5/15/2026. I like the concept of grilling your own food on skewers. Each skewer is $1.40, and the selection of meats and vegetables was abundant. While solo dining, I selected the lean wagyu, black pepper wagyu, brisket, magra fresh lamb, crawfish, cuttlefish balls, and pork belly with kimchi. Most skewers had skimpy portions of food! My primary server, Tommy, was attentive and accommodating. He provided me a fork when he saw me struggling with chopsticks. He also informed me that only dry seasoning is up for customer grabs. Customers must ask the servers to retrieve the wet ones, e.g., lemon, sesame oil, soy sauce, etc., from the kitchen. Tommy gave me some free lychees for dessert. I appreciated that because they are one of my favorite fruits. I also sampled some mango custard--delightful. Kay and Lucas took turns cleaning off my table. The ambiance says "restaurant walk up". Customers must climb steep stairs to reach the restaurant, so skip this restaurant if you are in poor shape. The restrooms are fairly clean, and the vibe is Instagram worthy. Chubb Skewers is worth a try! I had a good meal! 3.5 stars/5-rounded off to 4.

Came here to celebrate Father's Day. There were alot of selections of skewers from different meats, seafood and vegetables. Our server Jenny was very attentive and she explained to us how it worked. I also ordered a pitcher of passion fruit beer. That was good. We enjoyed our meal and was very full. The air conditioner was on, it was well ventilated we didn't smell after leaving the restaurant. I will definetly come back.

The skewers were delicious but they're small so that I can try more of them at once. Selecting the skewers is self-serve and is divided into categories. I enjoyed the meat skewers the most and the seasonings offered elevated the taste of them. I can tell the meat is high quality since I can taste the richness and the marbling of some meats. Beware that it's not all-you-can-eat so it's pay by skewer with some skewers costing more. The sweet and sour pork could be a little less sweet and have bell peppers since it tasted more like Korean honey butter chicken, and the spicy potato sticks were also on the sweeter side. Despite that, I recommend this place if you're in the mood for Chinese skewers.

Skewers are $1.40 for non-member. Some of them are $2.80, such as chicken wings. Members are $1, but it is $50 per year membership with free skewers. Skewers are flavorable. I like the beef tribe, new orkeans chicken wing. The lamb skewers are more like skinny skewers. Scallop with vermicelli is tasty. We got 6 for $21. It is $4 if you order 1. Thats why we ordered 6. Shrimp balls are also good. It is crispy. It looks like lychee. You can skip the eggplant. I had better. Live music, and they gave out free flowers for Mothers Day. In the end, you get to pick a prize. My wife got the $25 gift certificate. The waitress was very happy when my wife drew the $25 gift certificate. I guess that's the big prize they were talking about. We spent about $125 including tips for 2 people.

The reason for 1 star because, one of the skewers the meat was sour .. i think it's pork one. If you cannot tolerate rotten meat you can stop reading the rest of what i wrote. After entering the store you'll need to climb the long staircase, it's not seniors friendly. Because it's a rainy day, a girl almost fall down from going down the staircase. On a Saturday night waiting time was about 40mins. Service is good, nice people. Live music available we came on Saturday night, the singers are good however if u were like us being sat next to the singers, it's gonna be sooooo loud. Here's the break down for food we tried: (it's bite size skewers) - Chicken wings is good (spicy one) - pineapple is good only of you cook it over 10 minutes sprinkle some sugar on it - corn is good 糯糯的 - abolone is ok like the one in a can - eel is good but don't like their marinade , very tiny piece - chick feet is ok something different after eating a lot of meat - chicken heart is not fresh - baby squid is not fresh and mushy - broccoli was yellowish( didn't get that) - fish balls is typical fishball like those in hmart, i like bbq fishball - beef tripes is good -beef tongue - very hard to chew not the best part - Australia lamb is tough - all beef are not good quality beef , beef neck meat were so hard to chew, throw it out. - bacon wrap mushroom is good , make sure pick the fresh one, some of them in the tray looks gray - shrimp is good - crawlfish is ok - duck tongue is ok - mini scallops is good -side order fish skin very good Alcohol & drinks are available, cheaper if one of you in the party join membership they'll calculate for you., then you'll get free can leychee dessert. Pineapple beer is good. In conclusion: most meat they are bland even though some are already marinated. Because we had tasted sour meat (pork), rinsed my mouth with alcohol. Idk if we gonna get sick the next day ... So .. I'm sorry to give 1 star, my mind can't get off the sour meat i tasted. Just feel unsafe to come back again. Personally now I'll prefer just go to Korean bbq. Personally

Came here for a birthday dinner with a friend on Saturday night. Picked this place based on the high reviews, we signed up at the front (upstairs, there's a tablet), we waited for about 30-40min. There's 3-4 chairs directly beneath the stairs leading up to the restaurant on second floor (stairway is very long, this place may not be wheelchair accessible, I didn't see any elevators). We got seated outside which had some nearby heaters. Decoration felt like outdoor camping vibe with lots of flames everywhere. The server got us water upon seating and explained that the seasonings at the table is free but if we want the seasoning nearby the skewer place is extra fee. This is the first time I've heard of charging extra for seasoning...and it's not really cheap either. Skewers selections has a wide range of meats, vegetables is pretty underwhelming. Skewers themselves doesn't have a lot of meat on them considering they're around $1.35 or something...some that has 2 skewers through meats are more expensive. I was pretty disappointed with every skewers TBH: 1) portion is super small 2) tasteless 3) doesn't taste very fresh 3) you cook it yourself 4) can't even enhance the flavor because the "free condiments" are limiting and the actual one that may help is extra $. What really killed it for me was when I tried the squid. It's whole baby squid with eyes, teeth and innards intact. Not cleaned at all. When I bit into it, all the guts came out and was extremely fishy. I don't think a restaurant should be serving squid that hasn't been properly cleaned. Not OK. The total came out to be $100+. We had also ordered some side dishes such as the preserved egg with tofu which wasn't too bad. Overall impression: - decoration: great, that's probably where the restaurant is putting most of its efforts in - service: above average, server was attentive but customers are really just servicing themselves lol - food: very poor - price: does not make sense, especially charging for the condiment that might actually save the flavorless skewers. I think the business model leans into hype and membership for Gen Z group that wants to post to Tik Tok or social media. if you're an actual foodie who wants good food, I'd skip this.

Stumbled in randomly for skewers - a little disappointed that these didn't rotate automatically. Wait staff are super attentive at clearing plates and refilling water. The skewers selection is good, definitely lots to choose from, ranging from different parts of meats too. The skewers match the price $1.30, so it's nice to just get some to try, but my party definitely walked out hungry for a more fulfilling meal haha. But I think it's great for a late night snack spot to hangout, talk, and eat just a little bit, especially since it does take a little while for the meat to get that smoky taste.

Atmosphere was really cute and the decor was fun. Selections of skewers were plenty and we enjoyed everything we got. Passion fruit beer was very good, liked it more than the pineapple beer. They seated us all the way on top at the end and it was very very hot and barely any ventilation. We left the place stinking. Wish they can fix the ventilation to enjoy eating more. They have an outdoor section for when it's warmer and excited to see that next time. Also if you don't want to cook for yourself you can have them use charcoal to do it in the kitchen.

I believe they have another location in the city but I came to this location in flushing on a weekend afternoon and was able to be seated right away. This is a pay per skewer place and just a heads up THEY ARE SMALL. They're cheap but for a reason lol. You could easily rack up $50+ worth of skewers alone (2 ppl). They were good though and you're able to season them yourself as well. We also had some sides (wagyu fried rice & stir fried instant noodles) which were both good as well. Overall a good spot but I wish the portions were bigger /:

They do have a very large selection of items to choose from, including seafood, vegetables, and even Wagyu. We went as a large group of four adults and four kids, and thanks to our friends having a membership discount, the bill was more manageable. Without that discount, the total would have been close to $500 including gratuities. The one thing that disappointed me a bit was the skewers themselves. Considering the name, I expected them to be a little more "chubby" or thicker, but they were actually fairly small. Overall, it's a fun social dining experience with lots of options, but the DIY cooking style and smaller skewers may not be for everyone.

If you cannot take the stairs or have a stroller, be aware that this location does NOT have elevators. I was able to carry my stroller up but going down I definitely needed friends to help me. If you have an elderly member who cannot walk up the stairs.. this isn't the place to go. Food wise, selection was alright. Felt the skewers were so not filling even after we ate a large amount. You're better off ordering off their menu if you actually want to leave with a full belly. Service was really good and staff were courteous and came by to fill our water pretty often. Live entertainment was alright too but space could be a little cramped.

It was a great experience at Chubby Skewers. Definitely one of the better ones in terms of self cooking and choices. There are plenty of options and the beef is so tender and delicious. I would definitely come back. The ambiance is great as well since there's a live singer.
