HORRIBLE EXPERIENCE!

by TreyDouglass

This 'restaurant' is terrible.

I never write restaurant reviews - but my experience at Chubby's was so bad! I love Mexican food, and I'm always up for trying new places - but I blew it this time. I feel like I owe it to other people out there who like Mexican - stay away from this place!

The food itself was incredibly bland - it was spicy, but the spice had very little *flavor*. I had a burrito, and it was the most unexceptional, tasteless meal I've had in a long time. I could (should?) have stayed home and made a better tasting burrito with cheese and tortillas from the grocery store. Seriously. I really wanted to ask for my money back, but I don't like being that guy . I couldn't go without warning other people about this place. I hope no one makes the same mistake I did. If you have ANY other options for eating out - specifically for Mexican - please consider all of them before going to Chubby's. I really hope management reads this review and takes into consideration the quality of their food. I will say that the staff was friendly. The food came out reasonably fast, but IT WAS SO CRAPPY.

Thanks for letting me vent - please do yourself a favor, disregard the other marginally positive reviews you've seen here, and STAY AWAY from Chubby's.

• Pros: the staff was friendly.
• Cons: HORRIBLE, TASTELESS FOOD!

Disappointed with the original Chubby's lately (38th Lipan location)

by Eviela

I've been a long-time fan of Chubbys on 38th Lipan. Since childhood, it's been a treat to go get a smothered burrito or smothered fries. Through the years, they have been consistently delicious. Lately though.....that's not been the case. They've made their portions of food smaller and charged more. The wonderful cheese chili they use sparingly over the burritos. I loved it when they piled on the smothered on the smothered burrito or smothered fries and they don't seem to be doing that anymore...leaving the burrito dry and the fries ....well a bit cheeseless. Maybe the new help haven't got the recipe down quite yet. I don't look forward to going there like I used to. I don't crave it anymore. Please make it good again!!! I'm beggin you.

Expanding...

by strapshoechris

Hey, Chubby's recently opened a NEW location a couple of miles from this crummy 38th dive...Go to 1-70 and Josephine, right off of 46th avenue. This new location has GOOD SEATING, faster service and better food than the old place. I hope Citysearch adds it to their list soon, and that Chubby's closes their old take-out only place on 38th...

• Pros: Good enchiladas
• Cons: 38th Ave. location appeares to be take-out only. New 46th location has seating.
