    This place has been on my list of restaurants to visit for a while now, so I'm glad to have tried it. My party of two arrived on a Friday night around 6 PM and there was no wait. We were sat immediately and service was friendly and quick. We ordered a variety of Sushi including blue crab roll, a special cut roll, and of course, the premium sashimi platter. Food came out quickly, and the presentation was beautiful. I love how they use really thick cuts of fish and do not skimp on the portion sizes. I would say, if you are an avid fan of sashimi, the premium sashimi platter is a must here to share (or not!) Overall, I really enjoyed my time here and would highly recommend this as a great sushi spot in downtown Brea. I will definitely be back.

    Long time diner, first time reviewer. Their sushi is generally good, although a bit on the pricey side. I did not like their Agedashi Dōfu because they make it different from most places where I've had it. The tofu is supposed to be served in sauce or broth. But theirs is all dry and did not come with enough sauce or broth to dip into, so the flavor was a little off for me. The rolls are decent. Personally I think they're packed with too much rice. The Poke Salad did not have a very generous amount of sashimi compared to other sushi restaurants. The restaurant itself is kind of small so the seating space makes me feel a bit claustrophobic.

    Chubby Sushi & Ramen is a great place to stop in for casual dining. This place is fully decorated with a whole bunch of stuff, it was a bit anxiety-provoking. We ordered the Chubby Sashimi ($65) to share between two people. The sashimi tasted fresh, but the sweet shrimp head was not deep fried enough so parts of the shell was not edible. I didn't like that it didn't come with rice. Service was just okay. They never once refilled our waters and both of our glasses were empty before we even finished our meal. Overall, this place was not bad but not great.

    The Chubby Roll is my favorite. This order is enough for a meal, in fact, I took the last piece home because I couldn't finish it. And I couldn't bare to waste good food by throwing it away. The only thing I would change is that I felt rushed, constantly being asked to order. I'll give them the benefit of the doubt, and chalk it up to attentiveness, but it was borderline pushy.

    Really cute spot in Brea with a cozy, inviting interior We tried a variety of items including the pink lady roll, yellowtail with jalapeño, tuna bone marrow, chubby sashimi, chubby angel roll, mixed tempura, and miso ramen. Everything came out fresh and well prepared. The rolls were flavorful without being overpowering, and the sashimi was thiccck and high quality. The bone marrow was especially rich and buttery and stood out as a unique dish. The tempura was light and crispy, and the ramen was warm and comforting so perf way to finish the meal Service was good and the food came out at a steady pace. Overall, a solid spot if you're in the area and craving sushi and ramen in one place. Would definitely return!!

    I visited Chubby Sushi on Saturday evening with my family, including our 9-year-old son, and unfortunately had a very disappointing experience. As we were standing at the entrance waiting to be seated, a waiter named Jun swung the front door open, hitting me. He didn't apologize, left the door open, and walked back inside without saying a word. A few minutes later, we were seated on the outdoor patio. It was very difficult to read the menu because the lighting was so poor, so we politely asked our server, Jun (the same person from the entrance), if we could be seated inside instead. He immediately seemed irritated. While cleaning a table, he threw the napkins onto it in frustration, which made us feel very uncomfortable. Jun told us he wasn't sure if an indoor table would be available. I kindly asked if he could check and let us know, but his response was, "I can't kick people out." His attitude throughout the interaction was rude and unprofessional. We requested a different server, and she was able to seat us inside almost immediately. From that point on, the food was excellent, and the service from the new server was great. Unfortunately, the experience had already been overshadowed by the way Jun treated us. The most upsetting part happened near the end of our meal. As I was walking to the restroom, Jun physically bumped into my shoulder. It didn't feel accidental, and I was shocked. I asked him, "Are you serious?" He quickly apologized and walked away. This experience was unacceptable. No guest should be treated this way, especially in front of their child. While the food was very good, the service we received from Jun completely ruined our evening. Because of this experience, we will not be returning

    Food here was fresh and well prepared. Services were great. We ordered the chirashi, dragon roll and salmon with crab and asparagus.

    Quite possibly the best lunch deal out there! For about $17-22, you can get a three course lunch. For people like me who can't decide, this is amazing. I went with the tonkatsu ramen, nigiri sushi and tempura for about $22. My buddy ordered very similarly and we split the seared bluefin tuna with asparagus appetizer. Everything was pretty good, but have had better across the board. If it were for lunch combo, I would have given 5 stars because it's rare to get these types of options with this level of quality. I do wonder if the nigiri or other items would be better if not part of the lunch special. I guess we will have to find out for dinner because there is no way I wouldn't order the lunch again if it's offered!

    The Chubby Sashimi is a must--its refined presentation is just the start, loaded with luxury bites like uni, chu toro, sweet shrimp, and more. First time trying tuna marrow, and wow--each bite was juicy, fresh, and so rich. The tuna nachos, yellowtail with jalapeño, and Chubby Roll hit all our fusion cravings. Absolutely love their creativity and unique twists. Finished off with a warm bowl of ramen--perfect for a full belly, and yes, kid approved too! IG: socalhkfoodies

    5/22/26 Chubby Sushi & Ramen Brea, CA...Came here with a couple peeps to Celebrate a late Mother's Day! We had so many items! We started off with a salmon asparagus appetizer roll. We also ordered 3 more rolls as a main course including Chubby high protein, Chubby Angel, and Brea rolls. Our main Sushi course was the Chubby Bowl. We also added Crab and Baked Scallop rolls! Everything was so good!!! Service was excellent! Place was clean and inviting! It looks like the lunch time crowd is pretty good as well. Parking is free in the area behind which is 2 hours, behind and south is 3 hours, or if you park in the structure even more south there is no limit. Come enjoy this place when you can!

    2nd time here in 3 years & it does not disappoint! The prices are fairly reasonable, fish is fresh & everything in all was tasty. Our server was attentive & also didn't rush us when it was a busy Sunday on memorial weekend. Love the decor in the restaurant! Everything we ate was so good - we wanted quality, not quantity! This is a good go-to sushi spot to get your fix if you don't want AYCE.

    Came here recently and it ended up being one of the better sushi meals I've had in a while. The fish tasted incredibly fresh and you can tell they care about quality. The bluefin tuna was the highlight for me. It had that rich, buttery texture that just melts when you eat it. We ordered a few rolls along with some sushi and everything was really well done. The rolls were flavorful but not overloaded with sauces, which I always appreciate because you can actually taste the fish. The portions were also really solid. We also tried ramen and it was great for sharing. Warm, comforting, and full of flavor. It's nice when a place does both sushi and ramen well instead of just focusing on one. Service was friendly and attentive, and the overall vibe was casual and welcoming. Definitely a spot I'd come back to when I'm craving good sushi.

    My first visit to Chubby Sushi felt like coming home. As a party of one, I was welcomed in and given a seat right at the chef's table, where I got to watch all the artistry and hard work that goes into every dish. It turned what could have been a simple dinner into a memorable experience from the moment I sat down. I ordered the sashimi plate, and it was absolutely outstanding--fresh, beautifully prepared, and surprisingly well-priced for the quality. What impressed me most was the honesty of the staff. I was considering ordering a larger portion, but they actually talked me out of it because they knew I wouldn't finish it. They were right. That small gesture showed me they cared more about giving me a great experience than squeezing a few extra dollars out of my wallet. That kind of customer service is rare these days. What makes this experience even more memorable is that I had just come from X Fish Izakaya, where I spent nearly an hour waiting to be seated while watching people who arrived after me get seated first. I left feeling frustrated and completely overlooked. Walking into Chubby Sushi was the exact opposite experience. Here, I felt welcomed, appreciated, and genuinely taken care of from the moment I walked through the door. As if the food and service weren't enough, on my way out I met a well-known food reviewer and even got the chance to hold a giant tuna head that Chubby Sushi had on display for a photo. It was one of those unexpected moments that made an already great night unforgettable. Sometimes a bad experience leads you exactly where you're supposed to be. I'm genuinely glad X Fish Izakaya dropped the ball because it led me to discover Chubby Sushi. This wasn't just a great meal--it was one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time and one I'll remember for years to come. I'll definitely be back. Chubby Sushi didn't just earn my business--they earned a customer for life.

Our server wasn't very personable but also not rude or terrible. I felt a little rushed even with a small menu. Being that I had never been there before, I wasn't sure what to get so I pretty much just blurted out whatever. What we ordered: 1) Black deluxe chicken paitan with pork - the broth was so tasty, it was absolutely delicious. The pork slices were generous, however, it was DRY. 2) Pork chashu - for my kid. They loved the broth as well and also felt that the pork slices were dry. I wanted to give 4 out of 5 stars, but I am going to hand them a 3. I loved the tasty broth, but the pork was too dry. How could you mess that up as a ramen restaurant? The portions looked a little smaller than what I am used to paying for much less money. That photo of my black deluxe chicken paitan with pork is very deceiving. It looks like a lot, but it definitely wasn't. I usually can't finish my bowl of ramen in one sitting and take the other half home. I barely had any broth in there, and being that the broth was very good, I was disappointed to run out of it before I was even done with the noodles and meat. Would I return? Sure. I liked the food. It's not a place I would go out of my way to eat at, but if I was around the neighborhood and wanted ramen, I would dine there again.

The restaurant itself is VERY small, with about 4 small tables indoor max. There's outdoor seating available but it is not shaded, so it isn't the best option if you're eating a hot bowl of ramen on a warm summer day. The layout of the restaurant is very strange, because the seating area is literally smacked within the restroom and the kitchen - so you're either seated right by the bathroom or beside the kitchen area. Parking is located in the rear. Service was very good. I was greeted right away, with the order taken and my food served promptly. It was busy for a Wednesday night but the two staff handled everything well. My ramen was a 6/10. I actually did not like the Pork Belly as it tasted very gamey. The ramen lacked flavor and I know it wasn't just me because the customers next to my table had to asked for soy sauce. Overall, I enjoyed my dinner at Silverlake Ramen, but there wasn't anything spectacular about my visit that would warrant me going back.
