    Chicken sandwich and loaded fries
    Tiffany N.

    4/3- Dine in visit Restaurant is super clean and staff was super friendly and very sweet . Ordered a bunch of things We saw in social media !! Overall, food came out super quick and hot and everything was extremely flavorful . Chicken was nice and savory and hot and crispy and fresh and tender. All the items I ordered was amazing and I really liked the spicy cheese sauce drizzle over the fries and dipped in the chicken sandwich. All the HYPE on all social media platforms is spot on . This place is a must over Dave's got chicken straight up .

    2 sandwich combo smoked level

    This place actually exceeded my expectations. I asked for a level above medium which ended up being "smoked". The spice was pretty tasty; spicy and with a lingering heat, but I was able to handle it. My son couldn't finish it though as it was too spicy for him. I also ordered a side of mac n cheese and it was pretty delicious I would say it's a must when I come back. The place was clean and they had music playing. Will be coming back

    Been going to Chubby's for a while, food is amazing, always comes out lighting fast, service is amazing, workers are always happy to receive you, always playing good music Shout out to Rubi!!

    4.5* If Cane's actually seasoned their chicken and didn't rely on their sauce to do the heavy lifting it'd be Chubby's. If the portions were worth the price you paid for them then Dave's would be Chubby's. Unlike Dave's you don't taste the food for the rest of the day. Chubby's perfectly seasons the food, but not to the point where it stays with you in an unpleasant way. This was my first time here and I didn't expect the portions to be as big as they were. My oldest kid ordered the double sandwich combo because we both assumed they'd be slider sized sandwiches, but they were two full sized sandwiches. I ordered the Chubby fries and everything was balanced perfectly. I was able to taste every aspect of plate individually, but they also came together perfectly. The coleslaw didn't overpower the sauce or the pickles. The chicken, which I ordered Chubby's spice, was also spicy but not overbearing. I could've handled a bit more spice so next time I'll go up another level. The fried pickles were an unexpected surprise. The batter was stayed on the pickle and didn't fall apart on contact. The pickle flavor was still very much present. The sauces were all very good as well. This is just a personal preference but the ranch was a little too runny for a dipping sauce. If it were to go on a salad the consistency would be perfect. But as a dipping sauce I would have preferred it a bit thicker. The cheese sauce was a low key banger. I didn't order it but we got some put in our bag. The cheese was a perfect accompaniment for the fries. The restaurant itself was spacious and clean. The music choices of the day were an 80's fan dream come true. First time here, won't be the last.

    Food was great, Spicy but good. Not salty. Love the combo of chicken and coleslaw. Service was fast and friendly. Not shy in giving their sauce. Place has the industrial look. Pretty clean, even the bathroom was clean.

    The chicken sandwich at Hot level was just perfect,very juicy and crunchy. The service was fast and friendly. This place is a hidden Gem. I'm glad I was nearby and stumbled across this place. I'm definitely coming back and bringing friends. If you live in Fontana and you are going anywhere but here for your chicken sandwich. I need to put you up on game. This is your new place to come for a chicken sandwich or tenders. If you get hot level and add some honey too it . Come give this place your business. You will not be disappointed.

    Crispy juicy chicken and the sauces were delicious. Very much a great alternative two places like Dave's hot chicken.

    Smoke level. Not very spicy, but very tasty and enjoyable!

    Honestly one of the best places to eat in the inland empire. Great prices, great service, and GREAT food. The chicken is always cooked to perfection and the variety of spice levels are excellent. I haven't ventured beyond "Chubby's heat" yet, which I believe is made using ghost peppers. But even then, it isn't a seating burn, it's very enjoyable. The searing is nice and spacious and the soda machine is always nice and crispy. Lol

    LOADED FRIES !

    At the top of the hot chicken game!! From the chicken sandwich to the tenders to the loaded fries. The house sauce is incredible and way different than anybody else's, they use more than just the hot seasoning, and the slaw is crazy good. Be careful if you plan on trying the Revenge Tender... that almost took me out LOL. Chubby's got the game on lock !

    Chubby's Hot Chicken If you're craving Nashville hot chicken in Fontana... RUN, don't walk ‍ Their chicken is insanely juicy and they've got 8 spice levels -- from no heat to their spiciest level, Chubby's Revenge ‍ (not for the weak lol). Everything is house-made even the sauces -- you can really taste the difference. The nacho cheese had a little kick and the ranch was super fresh Mac & cheese was solid comfort food too I tried the mild spice and it was the PERFECT amount of heat for me Paired it with fries , a chicken sandwich , and tenders -- no misses. And the coleslaw on the chicken fries?? Chef's kiss ‍ Not overly sweet, so it balanced the heat from the tenders so well 10/10 would go back If you love juicy chicken + customizable spice levels, this spot is a must-try

    My husband and I recently stopped into Chubby's Hot Chicken for the first time after seeing some videos on social media about them. Definitely a solid spot for some hot chicken in Fontana. We came in on a weekday around dinner and they were pretty empty. Staff were friendly and patient with our questions. Service overall was efficient and the wait time for our food was low since there weren't a lot of diners at the time of our visit. The establishment overall also seemed to be clean and well-maintained. We were pleased with our meal. Our order consisted of a Mild #1 (two sandwiches and fries) and a Lite #4 (two tenders and fries). The chicken was tasty on both combos: fried crispy and juicy on the inside. Definitely good size pieces in the sandwiches and tender combos. The only gripe we have is that the spice level seemed to be off. The tenders were ordered to be 'lite' spice, but there was honestly no difference between that spice level and the 'mild' spice level in the sandwiches. I have a pretty low tolerance for spicy food and can handle a little kick. I could barely finish the two tenders and had to give most of the second one to my husband. Pricing seemed to be competitive with other hot chicken spots in the area. Other than the spice discrepancy, we were pleased overall with our first experience at Chubby's Hot Chicken. We would definitely return again in the future if we found ourselves in the area.

    One of Each Combo -Sandwich, tender, and Fries.

    I was skeptical of the high ratings but I like their chicken. The chicken tender was good. The burger was also good but the chicken becomes soggy with the cole slaw and pickles in it. Id come back for the chicken tender and the delicious fries with thousand island sauce. They were well seasoned. I was not into their mac & cheese as it tasted like Kraft cheese and it was too mushy. Something was missing. I tried their $2 dollar spicy cheese sauce and it tasted like spicy nacho cheese. It had a kick but I had no desire to finish this. The chicken was nice and hot when I ate it there. It was crispy outside, soft inside, and very spicy after taste. I had the Hot flavor and the Crying flavor. Crying made my nose cry. I will have to try one below a Hot next time for reference. Its all seasoning but at least it did not give me a tummy ache like Howling Rays. The soda drink helped cool down the spice.

    ADDICTED TO THIS CHUBBY! One local chicken place in Fontana that beats the competition black, purple, and blue. Against my strict diet, I find myself coming here to get an amazing cheat meal. I've tried all of their flavors and they are all winners. My go to is the Chubby Fries. The service is always, and sincerely... ALWAYS friendly and courteous. I like the casual ambiance which is welcoming. Not to mention, there is a great liquor store next door to grab a drink after picking up a to-go order.

They were also insanely bland, no seasoning at all. The mac & cheese is well, terrible. I don't think there is any real cheese in it at all. It's very watery and honestly a box of Kraft is better and cheesier. I paid 75 cents for a side of sauce and didn't even receive it. My order was not complicated so not sure how that was overlooked. This place has work to do to improve quality. Will not be returning.
