Chubby Trout

Was in town from Texas for work. I have to say this place was amazing!! Sushi was great and the smoked prime rib was delicious! Tanner and Meg took care of me at the bar. They were both amazing! Very knowledgeable on the selection of draft beers and the menu. Their attitude and customer service were top notch! If you ever find yourself in Elkhart you have to make time to stop in and give this place a try!!

We were in town for some training for work and stumbled across this place and ohhhh man how lucky were we? I have been to a lot of great restaurants with similar menus but this place knocked it out of the park. Our server Bailey was amazing to start. The sushi, the shrimp the ahi tuna, the ribeye and the craft beer was second to none, we live four hours north in Michigan and I will definitely be making a drive down in the summer months to bring my wife back. Whoever owns this gem fell into the best talent as far as management and staff I’ve seen in a long time. Kudos!! 💯👍🏻 PS we even bought some of their awesome merch!

Great food & service; ask for Tiffany. She did a great job 👍🏾👍🏾

Edited: 11.28.2025 -- This is our go-to restaurant when we're in IN. We went for dinner this time. Many thanks to Dani for providing us with top-notch service and these delicious nachos. Our meals were absolutely delicious. True confession: I forgot to take pics of our drinks & dinners (prime rib mac & cheese & a burger); we were starving 😋

Delicious! I had fried perch which was crunchy and tasty. My husband had the prime rib cooked perfectly. Love the friendly service. We need to go to Chubby Trout more often!

Siera and Makena were great! Came in for a drink and they were very welcoming.

First timers will be back ! Loved the harvested barnwood decor 💕 Extensive menu. Delicious crab bisque, unique. If possible, mention to your waitstaff to inform patrons of the bisque drizzle (I may have omitted the crab mayo, a bit too much for me). The Cajun pasta was wonderful!

Great experience from start to finish. The entire way home we kept asking ourselves why we had never been to Chubby Trout before?!
Calamari absolutely amazing. Fish tacos stunning. Prime rib sandwich fabulous. Service excellent Dani did a spectacular job. Not often in today's world to have such a great experience.

Great food and service. Only minor complaint was it gets really loud and sound just bounces everywhere.

Bailey rocked!!!!!
