Chubbys used to be good...10+ years ago. Heck maybe even 5+ years ago. The food quality has dropped, prices keep going up, the wait time is ridiculous (even though its always been long), the chili is no longer hot and you never know if it's going to be a good chili day or a gross chili day. They're starting to cater to all the white folks moving into the area. read more

Chubbys is a institution of the Northside it's not fancy so don't bring a date... it's not healthy so don't come on a diet... It is the best green chili in denver and u can smother it on anything would give it five stars but place isn't clean...just ask fox 31 news I recommend the smothered chili cheese fries read more

The bitches that work here are so fuckin rude. I was being so polite and they always throw attitude. If you chicks don't fuckin like your job go somewhere else. The food is good though. They jut need to fix the customer service. Very rude. I go at least 3x a month. read more

It was almost 7:30pm Saturday night, we ran into Chubbys to grab a quick bite to eat before a concert. By boyfriend ordered a breakfast burrito after noticing that, per the menu, breakfast is served all day. The woman behind the counter notifies us that they are not serving breakfast since they close in less than 10 minutes. The signs all over the store say it closes at 8pm and it is currently about 7:32pm. The clerk then checks with the cooks and confirms that they do, however, still have beef. So, we order a couple tostadas, a taco, and a relleno. The food was almost inedible. The beef was so burnt and overcooked - it was absolutely digusting. My boyfriend felt like he was going to throw it all up after eating part of it. Not good. We will NEVER be back. read more

Service is horrible! ! Food sucks, since their grandma Cordova past... I grew up when it was good!!! Now its just blaaaaaaaand and overcharge patrons & mis-treat Everyone? Oh and filthy. read more

The food was 5 stars but the customer service and wait are terrible. The wait is always long. They remodeled but the wait is still forever. Many negatives to this places, except the food. The food is the best. Place is in a trashy/shady side of town. Most customers are shady I almost get mugged every time I go, but it's worth it. read more

Chubby's is so good I want to take it behind the middle school and get it pregnant

When you explore hole in the wall joints, sometimes you hit gold, sometimes you hit turd. This place is definitely the latter. First, it's disgusting inside, how they pass food inspections is beyond me. Now the food...I tried a chorizo breakfast burrito with green chile. Burrito tasted like pure salt, no flavor from green chile besides salt! Second, it was ALL chorizo inside, I could barely detect any eggs. So, to recap, a tortilla full of salty chorizo with some cheese! I'm pretty sure you can get a better burrito at Taco Bell. Almost forgot...this cost me $6. Santiago's burritos are in a different stratosphere of taste and they are $2.50. Why is this place still open??? read more

I don't get it....Really I don't. OK so It's cool that it is open late and has an ok menu. But really my food tasted like every single other mediocre Mexican hole-in-the wall place. Actually no, some other hole-in-the-wall places have much better grub. The green chili was so hot I couldn't even taste anything special about it. Food takes a long time to come out and it's all very disorganized and chaotic. No thanks. read more

Love there green chili smothered cheese fries extra spicy. One of my biggest hungover loves in Denver. Could have it every weekend if my waist line allowed it. Other then that the smothered burritos and tamales are pretty good. Service is usually all over the place though so keep that in mind. read more

Your approach to COVID-19 was HORRIBLE allowing groups in the line outside due to uncertainty was very unprofessional and yelling at customers approaching was unacceptable. In this time you should be more aware of what the situation is or just close due to IGNORANCE!! read more

Probly the worst Mexican food I have ever had, I felt sick for days.... not a good choice

ah man this place is soo good! its the kind of food you can count on for a food coma...i love it!!

I have not been to the other spots Chubbys has but the one on Washington, Thornton area is always dirty. The outside is also run down and dirty. For first timers, stand back and look at the menu because the lady at the window is the sister of the soup Nazi. UNpatent! Food is good, I just don't care for Dirty resturants. Say easy on the PROCESSED cheese please. I went to school at Thornton High. read more

Still as good as ever! I haven't come in to this place since they remodeled, it has been a while. But since I was in the neighborhood couldn't pass it up. Got my usual egg and potato special with chicarones. Matter of fact got 2 just to make sure the cravings were taken care of. Service was quick. The food was just as tasty as in the old building. Glad this place is here. Will continue coming here as long as it is open!! read more

A treasure. The most amazing Mexican food. I have a tradition: whenever visit Denver, I make a point to hit Chubby's for a smothered burrito. The lines are usually long, but the food is unlike any other. Spicy as hell but also savory and decadent. The green chile sauce is superb. Most of the US eats horrible, bland Mexican food which doesn't honor the real deal. I only wish Chubby's was as accessible as Chipotle read more

I went there last night and got a Mexican hamburger, bean and cheese. I got food poisoning and been riding the Toilet every since!!! This place has gone way down hill over the years and I will never go there again!! read more

Chubby's is awesome. It's stuck around and still around with the same food. And for everyone that try's it and can't see it and taste it for what it is. And than complains about it. Well we all know how soft they are. I love the enchiladas and chili cheese fries with chicharrones and only at 2am. Also keep the chili hot and for all the white folks that can't handle it. I'm so happy they all end up with weak stomaches read more

Hmmmm! Where do I begin? My dads side of the family is from the Northside. I remember passing by La Raza park and my Uncle always talking about how "tssss, it was all bad hita. I remember when La Raza had a poolinit" (Pool in it, for those that aren't fluent in N/S) We'd get to Chubby's and there would be Tupac shirts, tapes, CD's, bootleg movies, car stereos, you name it. Right there on the side of the building. You'd step inside and it's about as big as a closet and it smells like Purina in the summer time! But MAN are the chilli cheese fries to die for! I used to feel like I grew up with everyone that worked there! As I got older and experienced it, with a little buzz....MAN was I missing out! You never knew what to expect in there! Countless marriage proposals/fight offers from drunk men that would stumble in from THE Subway. I had a crackhead come up to me in the parking lot (well, many) saw me get out of my car which was a Mustang at the time and started singing "Mustang Sally". Dance and all, it was pretty sweet! I had to give her some money for that one! I noticed recently, they have some kind of deal going with Fear Factor, maybe? It involves the Park bench they stole from La Raza Park, and placed next to the building, where it has been dead bolted to the wall. You have to be a BRAVE soul to sit outside there, seriously. Either that, or it can be a perfect spot to meet your parole officer AND eat. Two birds with one stone type of deal. No matter what, you HAVE to try Chubby's at least once. And for all the suburbanites, if you really want to have fun with out of town visitors, bring them here, have them wait in line while you go across to 7-11 for drinks! read more

We were drinking and wanted some late night food. It is was terrible. $10.42 for four tacos that were un-eatable. The chicken tacos were unreasonably salty and the beef tacos sloppily made. I hate to say it but Taco Bell would be more worth your money and time. Four tacos for $10 isn't asking for much. Some quality can go a long ways. read more

My review is of my memory of what it used to be like back in the 70s. A bean burrito and green chile that was green. It looked like a ladleful of the most heavenly and hot green chile I ever ate at 15. As I remember it was completely, totally green with chiles. YUM. Gotta go back.If you ordered and are complaining about a taco you ordered, you need to just stick with Denny's and Taco Bell. Chubby's has never been known for their Tacos. read more

Amazingly delicious ! This place has been serving me hot green chili all my life! I highly recommend to anyone that wants good authentic Mexican food. read more

Made it in at 12 midnight for tamales and a taco. Everything was great and their sauce was actually spicy HOT! Hard to find in whitewashed Denver. The ordering and food recovering process was unique, but organized and sort of odd. A few guests in front of we were upset. I waited 25 minutes for my food to go and devoured it in the car on the way home. Long wait for great cheap food. I'll be back based on convenience and proximity to Regis campus read more

Chubby's is overrated and gross. I've been going there for years, and I usually regret it. Greasy ground beef smothered in velveeta queso. Sticky, heavy lard-laden beans. I am sick this morning and really hope I stop including that place on my list of bad late-night food decisions. Go the couple extra miles west to any number of good taco places on Feds and save yourself the misery. Even Taco Bell is a safer bet. read more

Ummmm.....okay. A batch of canned crushed tomatoes with some jalapenos, jalapeno juice and most likely cayenne does NOT make a decent salsa. Green chili has a kick to it but is doused with way too much PROCESSED cheese and no pork. Add to that an attitude coupled with half-assed recipies would make Grandma roll over in her grave. read more

Tried calling the number listed on yelp and Google and Verizon says it's disconnected. I called to inform them if a post that's going viral which included a customer complaint regarding blood on their burrito. A real business keeps this info go to date. read more

i was desperate for some fast food after a long night of drinking and this place was the only place open so i went to order some drive thru. i was hungover and didn't know any better and gobbled the whole thing up and started to feel extremely nauseated. i started getting weird chils and forced myself to throw up. i almost went to the ER but toughed it out through the night. i wouldn't recommend anyone to eat here. the inside looks dirty as hell, like a homeless shelter. you couldn't pay me to eat there again. HOW THE F DOES THIS PLACE STAY OPEN? UR BETTER OFF EATING 7 ELEVEN MICROWAVE BURRITOS, AT LEAST YOU WON'T GET SICK AND THEY TASTE BETTER. IM SERIOUS. these people use the cheapest ingredients and worst their food is borderline spoiled, and they serve it. F U chubby's for robbing me and getting me sick. IF I COULD, I WOULD GIVE THIS REVIEW A -100 AND would only eat here if i was stranded on island starving to death with nothing to eat, well probably not because i'd die from the food poisoning. FDA should really shut this place down for good. forget about the rip off food they serve, it's not right and it's unlawful to poison people. i wouldn't be surprised if this place was crawling with roaches and mice. if you're interested in going through a near death experience , eat here. read more

I love this place. I've been frequenting Chubbys for over two decades and the only bad experience I've ever had was the wait but that's because their food is so good! The smothered bean burrito is awesome. Red for a bit milder and green for a bit spicy. Personally I love spicy so I get the smothered green bean burrito and I ask for the hottest chili and extra peppers. Also their smothered green chili French fries are out of this world. read more

The smothered burrito is one of my favorites in the Denver area. I started going here about 11 years ago when my girlfriends and I would go out late night. After hours of dancing and drinking this was the place to go for late night food. I even started going here during the day and the food was just as good. I will warn people that you'll have to wait a long time for your order... read more

Pretty much disgusting. I went with a friend of mine to chow down on some serious Mexican burrito-style binge-eating. After waiting a bit too long in a tiny, awkward, dank waiting room we finally recieved our food. And lo, what we got was two paper plates, stapled together. Enclosed was a nasty dry chunk of shredded chicken, enveloped in a tortilla and smothered with what resembled vomit but was not quite as tasty. Get this, we actually didn't eat that much and preferred the 7-11 day-old hotdogs used to clense our pallets of the Mexican vomit-slab. At least you expect 7-11 meat to taste like shit. read more

I think I may have just consumed the most perfect burrito. Normally I go for the beef and been smothered with cheese and green chile, but today I opted for the red chile since last night's drunken debauchery left a number on my stomach. OMG, the red chile combined with the beans, cheese and ground beef made for a perfect hangover remedy. My dog was hoping I'd drop some scraps for him, but I wouldn't dare let a single morsel miss my mouth. All I can say is AWESOME! read more

One of the best parts of Colorado! This is one of the first things I think of when I think of home.There's nothing that comes even close to the flavor of Chubby's green chili. Spicy, flavorful and delicious. It can't be beat! read more

The sushi wasn't as good as expected. Chili cheese fries were aight, drunk staple list

Definitely above-average Mexican. A solid choice for take-out. I've only ever ordered from the take-out window on the corner entrance. I'm not even sure if they have a dine-in area. I don't think so. read more

So, we were looking for a place that was open past midnight with some food and came across chubbys. From the outside it doesn't look like much at all! Heck, even the inside doesn't look like much, but the staff were incredible and the chile was the best in Denver so far. They even offered for us to try some other dishes comp'd for our first time! We will definitely be coming back for their fries smothered in anything they make. The burger was nothing to brag about, but it wasn't bad either. It was the chili that stood out in everything else. Forget Taco Bell! read more

I specifically asked for a bean and beef burrito Special (with Chile, no cheese)... They couldn't even do that!! They either skip the Chile or add cheese... EVERY TIME ‍‍ read more

The food is a guilty pleasure. The green chile is questionable, but tastes so good that you won't really mind what it really is. The service is HORRIBLE. Every time that I call in, someone rudely answers the phone after putting me on hold for 5 minutes, and then hangs up after asking "is that it" before you can even say thank you or mention anything else. And then, when you go into pick up your order, expect to wait until the people working there are done joking around and hitting each other behind the counter before they finally call your number and give you the food that has been sitting there in that white plastic bag the whole time they jacked around. The place is always packed but I grew up eating this crap, and I'm willing to put up with the cons to get those green chile fries or bean burrito ;) read more

Take home a quart of green chile. It is the best. Only the 38th Ave. location is the "Original". Special burrito can't be beat. I love this place. The clientele is as hilarious to watch as any you've seen. Yep. They are thinking the same of me. I've been going here for 40 years and can't stop. Buy enough green chile to last you over a year...It is the greatest ever...Hot, heck yes....Seriously the same as in 1970. read more

Awesome at 2am when you just want carne asada fries after drinking. Call ahead of time though as the line gets really long. Also, it's one of those places where I would just take it to go, the parking lot alone makes me feel like something could go down at any moment. read more

Only the original Chubby's rules ... if you going to eat Chubby's Only go to the West 38th all the rest are really bad copy cats ...
