We came in town to visit our family. We wanted to try something different from our hometown (MN). We came across Chubby Cattle through social media video. This restaurant already had a line upon our arrival!! We arrive at 11:45am and didn’t get seated until 245pm!! This place is on fire (pun intended )!!! Our server Kelly is super nice and so pretty . She is really kind to explain how the process works and which price tier is best for us (since we are from out of state). The meat are well seasoned and delicious !!! Definitely worth the wait and money. I recommend joining the membership if you plan to eat here more often and are locals. One downfall about this place is the VERY, VERY, VERY LONG WAIT TIME! Sign up on YELP to be on the wait list!

First time at Chubby Cattle, and it did not disappoint! Our server, Josh, was absolutely amazing—super attentive, friendly, and always checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. He gave great recommendations (the A5 Wagyu short rib was incredible!) and even helped us cook the meat perfectly.

As first-timers, we were blown away by both the quality of the food and the outstanding service. If you visit, definitely ask for Josh—you’ll be in great hands!

What an experience! Excellent service and the food was great. We got the Gold choice, lots of steak, sushi, vegetables and shrimp and it was fun cooking it ourselves. The tum yum soup was good. The service “ Niko” was super nice and explained the whole experience very good at beginning and educating us on the Chubby Group experience.
This was fantastic and would definitely come back again.

One word to summarize: Disappointment.

Had high expectations for this place before I went. I liked the Mikiya brand both in LA and Bay Area. But this place was a huge let down from my experience. I would rather stick with Mikiya for A5 wagyu experience.

I went by myself and select the diamond tier.

1. The good A5 meat was just a few pieces. Probably 2oz for each selection. I asked the server to help me grill these because it’s the best meat and the picture 2&3 were what happened. Totally burnt. I was being too nice so I ate the first kind of meat but it was impossible to eat the second. So I asked them to place another order and grilled myself.
2. The food delivery speed was subpar, I have constantly waited more than 10mins for my order at first. This is at 2-3pm so it’s definitely not peak time.
3. The unlimited “A5” was definitely a big step down. Sometimes it doesn’t look like A5 marble at all. In contrast, Mikiya A5 ribeye unlimited looked wayyyy better in quality
4. The unlimited A5 brisket can be so hard to grill because they were so thin. They can easily stick to the grill. In Mikiya, you can just put it in the pot and take it out easily.
5. Minor issue, their sauces or spices were all sweet. Even the salt had sugar in it. This would make your appetite go away pretty fast.

Absolutely fantastic dining experience at Chubby Cattle! From the moment we walked in, the service was attentive and welcoming. The quality of the ingredients was exceptional — everything tasted incredibly fresh and premium.

The meat selection was beautifully presented, richly marbled, and melted in the mouth. The broths were flavorful and well-balanced, enhancing every bite without overpowering the natural taste of the ingredients. We especially loved how clean and comforting everything felt, even after a full meal.

The atmosphere was modern yet cozy, perfect for both casual dinners and special occasions. Overall, an outstanding experience — we will definitely be coming back soon! Highly recommend.

The food is top tier. The service is quick and our server Viet is extremely helpful! He accommodated all our desired requests. The vibe of the whole restaurant seems as if you’re in Japan! Everything was excellent and the selected meats were exquisite! All the A5 Wagyu selections were so fresh. We are very satisfied and Viet also convinced us to get a membership! We will be returning diners.

An Amazing Experience!
We recently had a truly fantastic dinner at Chubby Cattle! The food was excellent, and what really made the night stand out was the incredible service we received, particularly from our waiter, Patrick.
Exceptional Service from Patrick
Patrick was absolutely wonderful. He was attentive, friendly, and went above and beyond when we hit a small snag:
* Quick Thinking: One of our grills unfortunately stopped working during our meal. Patrick immediately noticed and, understanding that we now had only one grill for our group, he was incredibly generous and extended our time for the meal so we wouldn’t feel rushed. This was a lifesaver!
* Wagyu : He even took the time to personally help us cook the delicate Wagyu cuts, ensuring they were prepared perfectly. His knowledge and willingness to step in and assist with the cooking truly elevated the whole experience.
Food Highlights
The quality of the meat was top-notch, especially the Wagyu. Everything was fresh and delicious—definitely living up to the restaurant’s reputation.
Overall: Chubby Cattle is a must-visit, not just for the great food, but for the outstanding customer service. Thanks again to Patrick for making our dining experience so memorable!

First time at Chubby Cattle! We got the Diamond Tier. My favorite was the A5 Wagyu Foie Gras Nigiri. The Wagyu was soooo soft , so tender and just completely melted in my mouth. I love their salmon carpaccio, the salmon was so thiccc. They also have a self serve area that has fruits, desserts, drinks, soups, and appetizers. I loved their Jasmine Milk Tea, it was not sweet which was perfect.

Ever since the Japanese BBQ shut down in our town, we were sad that we may not ever find another until I found Chubby Cattle on Instagram!

There was already a line when we came before the opening, but there is a wait list we can sign up beforehand. The wait wasn’t long, probably 10 mins max for a table of 2.

There were a variety of meat to choose from, everything was delicious and scrumptious. I really like the house special sauce and chili as it compliments the meat quite well! Our server, Viet, was very helpful, and kind!! He was also very convincing in selling the membership! Lol Keep up the good work!

We will be back!

Weekday afternoon visit: the line started forming around 4 PM, and we waited ~3 hours to get in. Tip: if you’re a party of two and okay with bar seating, tell the host in person so they know.

Service was solid. For the price point, I’d recommend the medium tier or gold tier to get premium cuts—the basic tier isn’t worth a 3-hour wait.

They also sell memberships. They’re a sister spot to Mikiya (San Mateo), but memberships don’t carry over—you’ll need to buy separately.

Food was great. Ventilation isn’t ideal and it can get pretty smoky inside.
There’s a 90-minute eating limit and a 70-minute ordering limit (not disclosed), plus ~5 minutes between rounds—pace your orders.

Only complaint: the phone routes to an AI system. It’s hard to reach a real person, and I didn’t see staff picking up calls.

Verdict: worth a try on a weekday afternoon/lunch; for a 3-hour wait, think it through.
