To celebrate my 30th birthday, my wife curated a weekend full of experiences for us, including tasting a few restaurants around Colorado we had not yet tried.
Our first stop for the weekend was Chubby Cattle. Chubby Cattle is a smaller restaurant, jam packed with a bunch of flavor and amazing staff. We were able to sit directly in front of the conveyor belt sushi, after joining the wait on Yelp (waited about an hour for a seat, which is not too bad on a Friday night) and it was such a cool experience. We went with the Regular Dining option which included all Nigris and Sushi Rolls, the Conveyor Belt sushi self-serve and HotPot all you can eat.
If you've stumbled upon any of my other reviews, you know that we have been in search of a Ramen broth that competes with our favorite in St. Louis, Nudo House. We finally found it.
I ordered the Spicy Miso and my wife got the Spicy Tonkotsu. We selected Beef Brisket and Pork Belly as our meat and then at the self-serve station picked up Udon Noodles, Imitation Crab, Shrimp, Bok Choy, and our array of sauces.
Spicy Tuna Roll 10/10
A classic of mine. It is my go to anywhere I decide to grab sushi from and this one was fresh and delicious. It also came on a little boat at the top, and I just thought that was the coolest thing!
All other Sushi 10/10
Because we tried the Conveyor Belt Sushi, I can't tell you the name of these rolls as they were not listed, but I will tell you that every single thing we ate was delicious. For someone like me who is a little finicky about my sushi flavors, this is the perfect set up because you get to experience a roll, without having to order the entire thing. The only downside to that, is if you like it, grab more than one plate because there is no guarantee it is coming back!
Spicy Miso Base 10/10
The flavor on this was absolutely everything I had been looking for. I wish I had known that in advance, because there honestly wasn't any additional sauce needed. Every single thing that we cooked in it absorbed the flavor and it had such rich and distinct flavors to it.
Spicy Tonkotsu 10/10
This is what my wife ordered, I only had a few sips and ate some of the food that was put in it, but we both agree it was delicious. It is not unnecessarily spicy and really paired well with the Udon noodles.
While the restaurant is a smaller space, the team works so efficiently to ensure they are grabbing any empty plates, refilling drinks and making sure you have everything you need. Overall, we had an amazing experience here and I cannot wait to return, I am thinking about convincing my wife to go back today!
