" Had a wonderful dinner at Chubby's with the family! The service was excellent, always checking on us and making sure our drinks were filled. I ordered the combo plate, and both the enchiladas and tacos were good but lacked remarkable flavor overall. The portions were generous, though, which made me satisfied even with the fall-off flavors. The atmosphere was vibrant, perfect for a casual family night out. I’d give them another shot! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Chubby's after hearing some great things, and the experience was rather mixed. Upon arrival, I loved the colorful decorations and friendly staff. I ordered the burrito, which was massive and very filling, representing good portion size. However, I did find the flavors a bit muted – it didn’t pack the punch I was hoping for. The salsa definitely lacked freshness compared to what I've had at other Mexican restaurants in town. But my friend's fish tacos were bursting with flavor, so it seems like the menu has a few hits and misses. I wouldn’t discourage someone from going, as it's still a solid choice for Mexican food, but I might suggest trying something other than the burrito next time I visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" Chubby's Mexican Restaurant is a delightful surprise in Salt Lake City! I was excited to try their famous Pozole after hearing so much about it. Upon arriving, I noticed the cozy setup and friendly atmosphere. The service was prompt, and our server was very helpful. The Pozole lived up to the hype; it was rich and flavorful, and definitely made from scratch. However, my partner ordered the smothered burrito and found it lacking compared to the Pozole. We both agreed that the chips were amazing and the complimentary salsa was a nice touch, even if it wasn’t our favorite. I appreciate that they’re involved with the local community, sponsoring school sports teams, as mentioned in some reviews. This restaurant truly represents the heart of what makes a local eatery special. I'd recommend visiting for sure, especially for their soups and seasonal dishes. Can’t wait to return!

" I had mixed feelings about my meal at Chubby's. On one side, the food was decent and portions were fair. The ambiance felt local and cozy, but I didn’t feel the flavors hit me as much as I wanted. The chips really stood out, but the salsa was a disappointment – tasted more like a mild store-bought blend. Service was above average, and my server made sure my drink was filled. Overall, I would return but with lowered expectations. " (*Curated Review*)

" Chubby's did not meet my expectations based on the hype. The ambiance was nice, and the staff was attentive, but the food was just okay. The meat in my fajitas lacked flavor and seasoning, and the flour tortilla was a little too thick for my liking. I've had better Mexican food, and this felt like it fell short on the traditional flavors. The chips were fresh but the salsa didn't have a kick either. While I enjoyed the service, the food itself didn’t wow me. I wouldn’t rush back but I’m open to giving them another chance to try something different, as many people do enjoy their food.

" Had a fulfilling meal at Chubby's! The tacos I ordered were flavorful, and the steak was cooked perfectly. The service was impeccable. However, the dining room was a bit tight, which made it somewhat uncomfortable, especially when full. But the food definitely made up for that! I believe it's still one of the best places to grab a bite in this area. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can't say enough good things about Chubby's! The jalapeno cheese cornbread they serve is off-the-charts! If you haven't tried it, you’re missing out. I also loved their mole sauce on the enchiladas; seriously, it was life-changing! Our server was fantastic, always checking in, ensuring our drinks were full. The ambiance is inviting, making it an excellent place for family dinners or get-togethers. Overall, a place that feels like home but with a menu that surprises you with each visit. I’ll definitely be coming back! This restaurant has officially stolen my heart. " (*Curated Review*)
