Chubby's has an incredibly large menu filled with gyros, hot dogs, burgers, you name. The line gets pretty deep during lunch rush but they have great seating available. They are one of the better, quick to get a bite, places in this area. I go with the gyro and I'm a huge fan of the fries here. The drive-through is pretty quick, so a fast stop on your way home is always a good option with Chubby's. read more

The place has a lot to offer. Totally a family favorite. The menu is huge, there's varieties of everything. Steak, chicken, gyros, Salad. Going thru the drive-thru for the first time is overwhelming, i'd suggest going inside or looking at a menu prior. My husband really like the skirt steak sandwich. (The ribeye tends to be a little fatty) the Maxwell Polish is another favorite. I've always ordered the cheese burger, it's always been great. Last time I tried their onion rings & they're awesome! I'd probably just come here to get the onion rings! We've been here many times & our order has never been wrong. The food always tastes fresh. The staff is really efficient and helpful. read more

TERRIBLE SERVICE!!!!!!! I ordered the jumbo taco they make a 3 taco platter when I went to pick up my food the guy said they already made the platter and their not re making anything starting yelling and was extremely RUDE about it!! I felt like telling him to shove the platter up his A**!!! Excuse my language... but On top of the EXPENSIVE prices the gyro tasted like rubber and the rest of the food was terrible..... Never ever ever again will I nor my family come here. Worst quality food & service I've had in a very long time..... read more

It is usually better if you eat in! That being said today I was really busy so used the drive thru! I ordered a tuna melt and it was not a melt at all! The pita was not even grilled and the slices of American cheese were not even melted! Fries were bland it was a cold sandwich and not worth the price paid! My son loved the chicken kabobs but didn't care for the rice or salad that came with it!!i was really disappointed with the food and the overall experience for the money paid(over 23 dollars)I would have went farther up the street to McDonalds read more

This is the first place I ever ate I algonquin 6 years ago. While it has moved the food is still great. Such wonderful variety and very consistent quality. Gyro / chicken gyro are great. A little annoyed that that charge extra for honey mustard for chicken gyro because it is a logical fit. 1/2 chicken new with Greek potatoes though YUM!!!! Lost a star due to the charges for add one as well as a slight "rudeness" from the staff. You get the feeling like you are doing them a favor by eating there...not the other way around. read more

Soo disgusting and disappointed i had ordered the 8oz Ribeye sandwich, had 7 oz of FAT. I know there's fat in that cut but not a huge amount. read more

I love this place, and my previous review was 5 stars. However I always order the chicken Gyro's and Shakes here, and this was an out of the ordinary experience, not in a good way. After taking a bite I immediately tasted what could only be described as the hide of a goat in a zoo along with the smell. I took a whiff of all the pieces, asked by wife and son about their experience as well, and we all agreed it had that zooish taste. I feel like they must have used goat tongue because afterward I had the taste in my mouth like I had gone tongue to tongue with a goat while getting the smells of the goat pen littered with smelly hay. I love this place, and will try again in the far future, and maybe I can change this rating for the better or possibly if i experience this again, never eat here. I could have gotten this experience without the taste at Brookfield. read more

Yesterday ((Nov. 29)), the place I work for ordered food from here and this was my first time getting anything from here, since I'm hardly out in the direction of this location, or am just driving past to get somewhere. I had a hard time deciding what I wanted as there were too many good things on the menu, but I ended up going with the Mushroom and Swiss burger and I was really happy by how big the mushrooms were! The burger tasted great and I was so happy with the quality of it! It was more than enough to get me through the rest of my day. I'll be sure to order from here again when I'm in the area! read more

This place has excellent food fare at a fair price. From the delicious gyros, cheeseburgers and hotdogs down to their lemon ice. Always fresh ingredients and great service. The only downside to the whole establishment is the wait time in the drive through, but the food is worth the wait. If you want to beat the drive thru wait I would suggest ordering ahead of time and pick up the food inside, or go through the drive thru if there is not a wait. read more

Stop today food was way over cooked Chicken tenders dried out over cooked. Took forever to get my order. Not worth the money. Never again read more

I eat here often. I usually the the Italian beef, Gyro or Kabab dinner. I highly reccomend them all. Their food is made to order (FRESH) which is nice to know it has not been sitting around for hours! I have been eating here for years, the best place around for a good Italian beef or Gyro. Also a little tip when you dine in, there are NO trash cans they will clean your table for you! read more

Good menu. Many items. The brat special they have currently, october, is excellent. It is better than portillos brat. The chicken gyros are a solid choice. I have only tried a few items, because I am not in Algonquin often. read more

My favorite thing to get is philly steak sandwich ADD giardiniera ! Amazing gyros and chicken gyros are fire. Love their fries !

Stopped in today, ordered athenian greek chicken. Took forever to get it, then super dry. Seemed old...hope I don't get food poisoning. Queasy afterwards. read more

This place is super homey and friendly. I love quiet family owned places like this. Their food is great, just like those hidden gems in the city. read more

The chicken gyro is beyond grilled chic-filet tender and goes amazing with their gyro sauce for it. The shakes are real thick and consistently great. read more

Had the Athenian chicken breast on a pita and it was amazing! Cooked perfect. Gyros was good too. Cute place, clean, friendly, good prices! Would go again. read more

Went here for lunch today and the lady who took our order, who i believe is part owner lacks customer service skills. She came off very rude. I ordered the chicken club croissant and asked if i could sub turkey and she looked at me in disgust. My boyfriend ordered the same thing and we shared a cheese fry. Our total came to $18 and some change. She charged us $2 extra dollars for subbing turkey for chicken and barley put any turkey on the sandwich, or cheese on our fries. It was a very disappointing lunch. Waste of 18 bucks. Wont be returning. read more

I don't give one-star reviews very often, but the gyros and chicken gyros offered at this place were so bad, that's all they deserve. They were so bad, in fact, that my husband and I couldn't finish them. We threw them out and went to Big Sammy's instead. My school was doing a dine and share fundraiser, so I figured I'd give Chubby's a try. The service was fine, but the food was not. The chicken gyros are a joke. The meat has a strange, rubbery texture (it's not actual chicken breast; it's some kind of pressed meat) and is dry as shoe leather. The pita is ice cold. The toppings, such as they are, consist of a small amount of wilted, brown-around-the-edges shredded iceberg lettuce and one tiny (and I do mean tiny) slice of under-ripe tomato, cut in half. No onions, no cucumber, no feta cheese. For sauce, they gave me a small cup of honey mustard salad dressing. Really? For a gyro? My husband got the actual gyro, which he said was awful (and it had the same limp lettuce and tomato slice as mine did). His did have gyro sauce, but not much of it, not enough to render the dried-out, chewy gyro meat edible. The fries were OK -- I'll give them that. The onion rings were just average, with kind of a soggy texture and not much flavor. Perhaps there are other menu items this restaurant does better, like hamburgers or hot dogs, but given the fact that a Greek-style fast food place can't even do a gyro properly, I don't feel inclined to head back to Chubby's anytime soon. read more

After reading previous reviews on Chubbys, me & my hubby decided to take the drive and try them out. We enjoy taking long drives trying out different restaurants. I had to have their ribeye steak sandwich. Previous reviewers complained about the price..well you get what you pay for. If you want quality food you gotta pay alittle more! I was surprised how delicious it was. So tender and flavorful!! I added cheese and giardinara on it. The french bread they serve it on was crispy and fresh. For a fast food pace I could not believe how good it was. The place was super clean. Meet the owner. Very nice Lady. (Can't figured out what other reviews made negative remarks about her & the food..totally unfounded!!) Fries were hot fresh, not greasy at all. Can't wait to go back and try other items..gyros, pork kabobs. It is well worth our drive from Cicero!! (DROOLING) read more

So, it has been almost a year since my last update. My family and I are still big fans of Chubby's, and we have still only experienced excellent food and service. And I still can't quit the Athenian Chicken pita. I see that now there are 54 overwhelmingly positive "filtered" reviews for Chubby's that aren't factored into its rating, while the 10 not so great reviews from when they first opened are still there. Not fair, in my opinion. It seems to me that Yelp is doing a disservice to visitors to its site by falsely gaming the system towards certain businesses and against others. I stand by my recommendation for anyone considering trying Chubby's to read the filtered reviews and try the place. read more

I'm having an affair with a Chubby. Yup, that's right. I can't get enough of this place & their Greek fast food. The location is super convenient, the service is friendly and fast, AND there's coupon on their website (hint hint). My favorite thing to get is their chicken kabob dinner, which comes with 2 chicken kabobs, rice, and a Greek salad (tomato, cucumber, onion & kalamata onions covered in Greek dressing & sprinkled with feta cheese). Their chicken soup is decent albeit a little on the salty side, but it's good on a cold night or if you're feeling under the weather. Their gyros are pretty standard, I mean how do you really screw up a gyros? The best part about Chubbys is that they're a local business, so I can't help myself when I'm too lazy to make dinner at home. If you haven't had a chance, I'd definitely suggest giving them a try, unless you hate Greek style fast food. read more

So, it has been nearly four years since I last posted and this place deserves an update. Over the past few years, we have been spoiled to have a place like this so close to us. My kids love it here! Let me tell you that I have used the drive through more this past year than any other year. I have never had to wait too long and they have never messed up an order. Read all of the reviews.. The good ones are here for a reason! read more

I love this place! I know the owners and they have a great establishment. Their Italian beef is great and flavorful not to mention their other food choices you can't complain. I think they have very good and fresh quality food and their restaurant environment is very nice and welcoming! read more

Chubby's Gyros - Hot Dogs Near Me - Algonquin, Illinois

This is about a month late. Just joined yelp. I only eat the regular gyros here and have never been disappointed. Another reviewer speaks of being angry with the wilted lettuce, small tomato and not much sauce. I've never had this problem and honestly I'd be disappointed if my Gryo came with lettuce - it shouldn't. Gryo meat is ground, screened and processed with spices and herbs. My sons have ordered the cheeseburger meals and have never been disappointed either. You can't miss with Chubby's. read more

I had an awful experience today with my kids at Chubbys. The staff lacks professional attitude towards customers. We had water with our food, and the woman manager, accused our kids of putting pink lemonade in their cups. She had a rude and awful manner when she came to the table, and then walked away from the table, commenting under her breathe. When I called back to leave my number for the owner, they refused. PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE don't spend your money here!! There are plenty of great local restaurants in Algonquin, who appreciate you as a customer. This isn't the first time I thought she was inconsiderate. I just thought she was having a bad day that day! read more

We've ate here a couple times tried the gyros had the philly me an the family enjoy getting are fast food from here wish they were closer to home read more

I've been going to Chubby's Gyros for over a year now. In a town full of chain restaurants Chubby's offers an oasis of good food. I usually get the Cheesy Beef with hot peppers but my other favorites are of course the gyros and the bacon cheeseburger. For dinner I usually get the souvlaki or chicken kabob. The quality of the souvlaki and kabobs will rival any that you will find in Greektown...and I should know because I went to school at UIC. Tender, flavorful and seasoned just right....it melts in your mouth. My friend's 4 year old daughter gets the Grilled Cheese meal each time we go there. She loves that it comes with fries, drink, a pickle and ice cream. She also gets a kick each time the owners call her cutie. As we walked out of the restaurant on our last visit she said "this place is the best restaurant we've ever been to". I spent 4 years working in marketing with Wendy's founder Dave Thomas. He had a passion for making sure his employees treated customers like family and for serving the finest, freshest food he could. As we traveled the country shooting commercials we would stop in at local restaurants to see what we could learn from other restauranteurs. Most of the time he would point out all the things they were doing wrong. But Chubby's is the kind of place where Dave would have commended the owners on the quality of their food and their outstanding service. Thanks for setting yourselves apart from many of the other dining choices in Algonquin. read more

Pretty good pizza puff. Decent hot dog and fries. Very nice dine in atmosphere for a hot dog joint.

I had a taste for gyros, so I stopped here based off of the reviews. The restaurant is fairly big and it's really clean and nicely decorated. The menu is big and has loads of daily specials. The owner (i'm assuming) was very friendly. As far as the gyros, they gave a very good portion for a sandwich, but it was extremely greasy and had to be patted down with each bite. It was sliced nice and thin with a little bit of crisp, but it really wasn't that good of gyros. Even though it was greasy, it was kind of dry and chewy. I kept chewing into small hard bits, which makes me think it's a lower quality gyros meat. I wouldn't order it again. The gyros sauce was good. I might return to try other items on the menu. They seem to offer many preparations of chicken that sound good. read more

Update #4 --------------- I finally made it back to Chubby's and had the Souvlaki again. This time it was just as delicious as the first time and I experienced **no illness**. I am sure the problem I had the first time was an unusual occurrence. I told a friend of mine about how the owner apologized and she's been a regular for over a year. Thumb's up on Chubby's Gyros!!! Update #3: --------------- Have to say I am impressed again. The owner called me to give a sincere and heartfelt apology for treating me the way she did which I accepted. The illness I felt was not severe and not different than what I have experienced at many other restaurants. I will give them another try, order the same thing and see if it happens again. Update #2: --------------- Now I double and triple apologize! I was trying to be nice by bringing the problem to the owner's attention and just got **chewed out** by the owner! I was nice, I complimented the food, I told her I did not want a refund; that I was just trying to help. UNBELIEVABLE! Update #1: --------------- Ok, folks, my apologies. It tasted great going in, but now I am not feeling well (one hour later). Someone needs to call the health inspector - they definitely have a problem over there. If you ever decide to eat at Chubby's, wait 24 hours before writing your review. This is my original review: ------------------------------------ We live one mile from Chubby's so I've always wanted to stop in. I finally did, today, and have to say, I was very impressed! First off, the decor is quite nice considering the place has a fairly typical Greek-style fast food menu. You could even have a business meeting here. Second, the ordering staff was friendly, but what I really liked is they have someone watching the tables and bringing the food out. He even went back for napkins and silverware and was very friendly. I tried the Souvlaki sandwich. It is pieces of char broiled seasoned pork with lemon juice and tzatziki (cucumber) sauce on the side, served on a grilled pita. It was fantastic! The reason I liked it so much is that the pork is very moist and tender. Sure, it's not pork tenderloin (not at the $5.50 price of the sandwich), but whatever they did to it was just right to make it tender and juicy. I really don't understand the complaints in the other reviews because I find it very hard to believe the Chubbies I experienced today is the same Chubbies described in the older reviews. I will go back in the future and try some of the items people complained about to get to the bottom of it. If you live in Algonquin or happen to visit, give Chubbies a try. It is the only gyro place around here, so it's worth giving them a chance. read more

Lived in Algonquin for 20 years, and only a few good restaurants. Get married and move to Des Plaines, and Chubby's comes to town. Several visits, and always impressed by the quality of the food. Burgers are good, chicken great, gyro's good. Fries and other sides are very good. Last visit, ordered a grilled chicken sandwich. Very well done, and hot! Fresh lettuce and tomato. Fries hot and fresh - not too much salt, which you can always add. Owner came by and asked how the food was. Another person came by and asked if I was done with my tray while attending a business email after eating. Nice decor and plenty of tables to sit and relax over a good sandwich with friends. read more

First off the atmosphere in here is amazing. Alot of restaurants that sell this kind of food but this place is alot diffrent very cozy. The food is also very good the I Italian beef pack #5 I believe is very good value and a perfect amount of fries. Now this may not effect most people but the soda machine looks very well maintained and taken care of. I've driven past this place 1000 times and I now regret never walking in. read more

I'm in the neighborhood, so I figured I'd stop for my favorite lunchtime meal, a gyro. The food is fantastic and the restrooms are nothing short of spotless, which to me is a good sign and a sign that the cooking area is clean too. read more

Absolutely love Chubby's and the owners. There are so many items to choose from, you can't go wrong! Healthy food to junk food, it's all fresh made. Love the Athenian chicken with the potatoes, rib eye steak sandwich is best I've had anywhere, tuna melt on pita, hamburger is good, chili cheese fries are awesome, read more

TERRIBLE SERVICE!!!!!!! My family and I went to eat dinner tonight and our total came to almost $40.00 for 2 hot dog meals and 2 gyro meals. The gentleman who took our order was not very friendly to begin with. Let alone when our meals came out to us we were short one Gyro meal . We told the gentleman who gave us our food we were missing a gyro meal. He told us that was our complete order. My husband went to counter and explained what had happened and the Lady who is owner of this place said they would take care of it with no apologizes. As my husband was turning around she threw her hands up and rolled her eyes in disgust. This is the worst place for service. read more
