As usual, the food was good today. Their Philly Steak was amazing, and have I mentioned how delicious their brownies taste?!? I had a chat with one of the owners today. She addressed a previous review that I had written, and although it was a bit awkward, I appreciated that she was passionate about her family’s business. She gave service with a smile today, and that was appreciated. A smile and a thank you go a long way in this day and age, and today, that was exactly what I received!

The food is pretty good… but! The husband(owner) is a nice guy but his wife is a MEGABITCH! absolutely rude! Absolutely has no customer service skills. She reminds me of the«NOSOUPFORYOU!» guy. This makes the food suck even though its good. MEGGGABITCH!

Love this place, excellent portions! They have great beef and sausage combos. Really good flavor, excellent bread, order them with sweet and hot peppers, their sweet peppers are better than portillos(no disrespect to portillos, I love them) . Their burgers are really good also, they could use some better buns but besides that the flavor and fixins are top notch. They use real cucumber pickels on their burgers, excellent fresh flavor, I wish more places would use those. Will definitely go back again and again

I picked up a dinner and the chicken was burned and dry. I brought it back and got yelled at by the owner/manager that«there is nothing wrong with the chicken and this is the way he has been selling it all day!» I said I have liked your chicken in the past but this is burned and dry. Then he proceeded to yell, «You always complain, every time you come in here there is something you complain about.» The last time I dined in was probably 6 months ago and went through the drive through 2x in the last 2 weeks for a salad and«I don’t ever remember complaining,» I said sternly. I also noted that they charged me almost $ 10 when the chicken dinner was advertised for $ 7.99. It seems like there is always an up charge and you end up paying way more than you would expect. So this went on for about 15 minutes until I finally got my money back. It’s the principle I told him and it’s about customer service! The owner/lady wasn’t there tonight but wears a grim face and has been rude the few times I’ve been there too.

Update on my prior review. Stopped yesterday for gyros and chicken tenders for my wife. Gyros were tops! Hot pita bread, plentiful meat and overall delicious. Fires were crisp outside and hot and tender in the middle. If I were to change one thing, I’d make the catsup a tad thicker. Excellent choice for a full range menu.

Food was good, though overpriced($ 9.00 for a gyro, drink and fries). The blonde girl at the counter, she definitely doesn’t want to be here. Felt like I was disturbing her to place an was overly polite, said thank you when she brought my food to the table. She walked away. Didn’t see a single person when I walked in, that’s because she’s sitting behind the counter. If the cashier hates it that much, maybe she should find a job elsewhere. I would put this on par with most small mom and pop gyros. Though, this was about $ 3 more than I usually pay for far less food. I was in the area so I stopped. Don’t know that I’ll be back though.

the souvlaki dinner is a must. Today I thought we’d try something new and was disappointed that I did. The Athenian chicken dinner is a steal at $ 7.99 but lacked flavor. It looks nicely seasoned with herbs and cut up lemons, but it stopped there. After 1 bite I needed to add some salt just to add flavor. I ordered to potatoes as a side and rice as an extra side, both were good and tasty, unlike the chicken. Ordered the gyros for my husband and rather disappointed once more. My husband is a big fan of the souvlaki and had high hopes for their gyros, but was let down. The meat was dry and rubbery. Whomp whomp… Any future trips to Chubbys will just be for the souvlaki, to skip any type of disappointment.

I’m in the neighborhood, so I figured I’d stop for my favorite lunchtime meal, a gyro. The food is fantastic and the restrooms are nothing short of spotless, which to me is a good sign and a sign that the cooking area is clean too.

Everything is pretty good. Gyro is solid. Nothing amazing but a solid hot dog joint with a comfortable dining room and a drive through. A little steep, but I can tell they have a lot of overhead. I also don’t need the fries with my cheese dog, than I don’t have room for 2. Not to mention the fries are pretty so so

We went here today for lunch and LOVED the food. My husband had the gyros and I had a chopped salad and soup — both wonderful! Highly recommended!

Mostly excellent. The typical American fair is on par, but the Gyros and Greek-inspired food is excellent! Big fan of the chicken wrap and the Reuben sandwich too.

This place was such a pleasant surprise! I’ve been on the hunt for a delicious gyro so I had to try this place. I got the number 1 which was the gyro pack(a gyro with fries and a medium drink). It was amazing! The gyro was definitely packed full with plenty of sauce which is a must have for me. The gyro was very juicy and packed full of flavor. I can’t wait to go back to try their large selection of menu items. The dining area was nicely decorated and super clean. The staff was also very nice.

I was shocked at the price !! Food was ok, but I know where to get better. Sandwich was kinda small and the fries were small. You can do better elsewhere. I wished I looked at Unilocal before I spent $ 10.00 for a burger and fries

This is a review about Chubby’s Catering. We went to a graduation party last weekend that had been catered by Chubby’s. My friends ordered the mostaccioli, Greek Chicken and a 6 foot sub. The food was delicious! Especially the Greek Chicken. My 8 year old daughter could not get enough. I was with my friends the day they placed the order. It was quick and super simple(after we ate lunch, they walked up to the counter and ordered. Super easy). On the day if the party, they picked the food up and it was still hot when they arrived back at the house. 5 easy stars for Chubby’s Catering!

The food is just ok. The women at the drive through, part owner I think, was somewhat rude. Better food at a similar price can be found nearby.

I’m having an affair with a Chubby. Yup, that’s right. I can’t get enough of this place & their Greek fast food. The location is super convenient, the service is friendly and fast, AND there’s coupon on their website(hint hint). My favorite thing to get is their chicken kabob dinner, which comes with 2 chicken kabobs, rice, and a Greek salad(tomato, cucumber, onion & kalamata onions covered in Greek dressing & sprinkled with feta cheese). Their chicken soup is decent albeit a little on the salty side, but it’s good on a cold night or if you’re feeling under the weather. Their gyros are pretty standard, I mean how do you really screw up a gyros? The best part about Chubbys is that they’re a local business, so I can’t help myself when I’m too lazy to make dinner at home. If you haven’t had a chance, I’d definitely suggest giving them a try, unless you hate Greek style fast food.

The food is good, but not amazing. The service was lackluster but not poor. The manager was my cashier according to the receipt. She was short, but not rude. All in all, if I’m in the neighborhood, I’ll eat here again.

I had a taste for gyros, so I stopped here based off of the reviews. The restaurant is fairly big and it’s really clean and nicely decorated. The menu is big and has loads of daily specials. The owner(i’m assuming) was very friendly. As far as the gyros, they gave a very good portion for a sandwich, but it was extremely greasy and had to be patted down with each bite. It was sliced nice and thin with a little bit of crisp, but it really wasn’t that good of gyros. Even though it was greasy, it was kind of dry and chewy. I kept chewing into small hard bits, which makes me think it’s a lower quality gyros meat. I wouldn’t order it again. The gyros sauce was good. I might return to try other items on the menu. They seem to offer many preparations of chicken that sound good.

Chubby’s, in the NW burbs of Chicago, is a ‘mom and pop’ style burger/dog/Greek fast food place. They serve above average quality, cooked to order foods. It’s always amazing to me that independents can survive these days, but at noon, at least, this place is fairly busy, and like most suburban eateries, is surrounded by the big chains. I went with a plain cheeseburger, at $ 3.99 for what looks like a third pound patty, built to resemble hand-formed, but my guess it’s a machined patty. While the flavor was OK, with some smoke flavor enhancer added, the texture, a relatively fine grind, was not to my personal taste. The soft bakery roll, dusted with cornmeal, was amble enough to stand up to whatever one would choose to layer between it. Will I go back? Yep. I’d like to try some other items on the menu.
