Chubby Cattle Wagyu Shabu House | Unlimited Wagyu Hot Pot

Chubby Cattle was such a fun experience for my first hot pot! We couldn’t reserve a table for 2 but were able to be seated right away on a Saturday evening. The staff took the time to explain the iPad ordering and the self-serve station, which was helpful. Though, for first-timers, it would help to have a sheet or guidebook for tips on how to have a successful hot pot experience (ex: order of vegetables versus meat versus noodles, timing, etc.) Thankfully, I was with an expert and we hade a great time. We got the basic package and got the wagyu, pork and chicken with a lot of veggies (loved the pumpkin the most) and udon. The flavors were perfect from the broth and the staff was very kind in providing extra utensils, like tongs and forks. And, the cocktails were super delicious and priced

The Food The quality of the meat was top-tier. Everything was incredibly fresh, flavorful, and cooked to perfection. If you are looking for high-quality Wagyu and a unique hot pot/BBQ experience, this is the place to be. The Service (Shout-out to Nicolas!) What made the night truly special was the service. A huge thank you to Nicolas! He went above and beyond to make sure we had a great time. He was extremely helpful, providing clear explanations of the menu and guiding us on how to get the best flavors out of our meal.

I went to Chubby Cattle in November 2025, as I liked the idea of being able to eat good-quality meat at a relatively affordable price. Unfortunately, my experience took a turn when I was served raw fried chicken. I had already eaten about half of it before realizing it was undercooked, which is obviously a serious food safety issue. I told the server right away, to which he took the dish back and gave me a 20% discount. I felt slightly nauseous afterward and completely lost my appetite, so I wasn’t able to enjoy the rest of the meal I had paid a lot of money for. Given the situation, the 20% discount did not feel adequate. The server also barely apologized, which added to my frustration. The AYCE wagyu concept is appealing, but this experience made me very concerned about how food is bei

The broth was good, we got the house special and SukiYaki. The meat options were good. Good service. We got the basic hot pot deal. It is pricy but ultimately worth the money. Good option for foreigners and English speakers. The tablet used to order, if you haven't done it before, is a little hard to learn but someone will walk you through. Overall great experience. The only downside was the quality of the bathroom. It did not flush twice and the other did not have soap. There are two gender neutral bathrooms.

Meat quality is incredible and the servers are very nice, however, I think we caught Chubby Cattle late on a bad night. Various machines and serving stations were down, so we couldn't get bubble tea, most sodas or rice and certain items on the menu weren't available. Most of what we were able to get was very good, but at more than $100/ per person, I would expect that we would be able to get everything the restaurant has to offer, not most of it. We were also warned that some seating options would not be large enough to accommodate the meal, which I found strange. I've heard that the sushi restaurant above Chubby Cattle is excellent, so I'll have to give that a try next.
