Been to this place a few times and normally the tables & chairs are filthy. On this occasion our waitress(Cassidy) did a great job. Her service was excellent and she actually took the initiative to clean all the tables & chairs. Chili’s should hire more individuals like her to prevent a visit from a hygiene officer. Food was excellent by the way.

Came to this place yesterday for my friends b day it was like a good 25 of us and although the wait was long due to it being Friday and also a lot of graduate celebrations our waitress Bryanna(I hope I’m not getting her name wrong) she did an amazing job from the moment we were seated to the moment we left… it amazed me that despite the business of this restaurant last night and the many people she was attending at our table she still made sure to refill our drinks WITHOUT even asking! She was so nice! I seriously give all the props to this girl even after her 2 hr overtime her attitude always stayed the same!

Food is great. Servers are great. I should know some of there names since I kinda live here. Wish they still had the appetizer and dessert coupons they use to email me. There reward system could be better.

After spending nearly 3 hours after work on a Friday at the car dealership up the street, we were starving and just wanted something that would satisfy our hunger that didn’t involve a drive thru. Enter Chili’s where you know what you’re getting into and it’s usually served pretty quickly. Being that it was 730-ish on a Friday night, the place was packed. I initially put my name down with the hostess for a table, but after a few minutes a spot opened up in the bar area, so we opted to sit in there. Service was reasonably prompt, considering the crowd, though it seemed at first that they weren’t sure who had the table. Anyway, food and beverages were the regular Chili’s stuff you’d expect. Overall, when you’re in a hurry and/or just want something that doesn’t require a lot of thinking on your part, Chili’s will fit the bill. This one is freeway close which makes it convenient.

Used the app to order my food. It’s so cool and definitely saves time! I called to double check they received the order and to add an order of shrimp w my pasta. Guy on the phone was extremely accommodating, I believe his name was Miles or something. I changed my mind about having the mango chicken and wanted steak after submitting the order and he totally went above and beyond to make sure that wasn’t started yet.

I come here all the time I love the people atmosphere and of course the food. The all day happy hour on Sunday is the best. Service is always good in the bar. I’ll continue to come back.

Out of every restaraunt I have ever been to I will be back to this one FORSURE. Last night my husband daughter and I went in for dinner. At first we were slow to be greeted but as soon as we were seated our server Dennis was on top of everything he took our drink order and was back in about five minutes with everything. He then asked if we needed more time, we didn’t ordered our appetizer and food and he asked if we wanted the kids meal out with appetizer. We had great service throughout the night an it was by far the best service we have ever recieved. We were seated next to the kitchen and were able to watch the way Dennis interacted with others and it was amazing. He walked with a purpose. He did various other jobs instea of just taking orders and bringing food. He was constantly checking on ours as well as others orders and well being. If you come here ask to be seated in Dennis’s section.

Service can clearly use some major work. Don’t get me wrong, the servers(the ones we’ve had), have been great! Very positive attitudes. But man, they are swamped on a freaking Tuesday. Maybe this is normal but I don’t eat out much so it’s like«woah!» to me lol. It was my three siblings and I eating here after a movie. Our server took really long to greet us and get our drinks to us :(I think that was the only downer from this trip was the super slow service when they should be at lightening speed on busy nights! I know, I’ve been a server at plenty of restaurants. Hopefully they improve! Because this is so close to the house & I like the food. This is perfect for date night because they have the 2 for $ 20 going on. I might have to come back and do that!

Went to lunch with some friends. To bad they did not have Voss, but shoutout to Dorthy! She was one of the greatest waitresses I have ever experienced. She had a great sense of humor and was very friendly. I would come back just to see her again. Even when my obnoxious friend kept ordering a boatload of ranch she was really cool. Next time you come here ask for Dorthy and sit in her section! Hopefuly we’ll see her again she’s the best!

The ONLY reason I gave two stars instead of one is because I know they have better wait staff on their payroll. Today was a complete disappointment. Our waitress, Lilian was terrible. Not once did she offer to refill our glasses and only asked how things were once. She brought us our«crunchy» cheddar bites which were completely drenched with oil and soggy. The food(which we ended up not even eating half) was below par and my wife and I couldn’t get out of there fast enough. Last time we were there, I ordered the salmon. WAYOVERCOOKED and dry as the desert sand. I sent it back and got the ribeye steak dinner. It was okay, but very fatty. I seriously doubt we’ll be back. You’re better off going to Applebees… and that ain’t sayin’ much.

I have to say that one of my guilty pleasures is going to Chilis! I’ve always thought their food was average quality, but I think just the overall atmosphere is what I like. It’s inexpensive and has fun, spicy foods.(I really like spicy!) They always have really good deals, like the 2 for 20 or the 2 for 35. Portions are great. They also offer a point system where you can get a lot of really good deals. The drinks they have are priced right and you get a lot for what you pay for. It’s just an overall fun place to go. Items to order/not to order that I’ve tried so far: Do Order: –Chips and Salsa: I really do love this appetizer! I love how light and crisp the chips are! –Texas Cheese Fries: Yum! I love their fries. Topped with cheese, bacon, jalapenos and green onion! Served with Ranch –Boneless Buffalo Chicken Salad: Good mix of heat from the hot sauce and coolness from the ranch –Cajon Pasta: So good and filling! –Crispy Honey Chipotle Chicken Crispers: I love the sauce on them and how crispy they are! –Southwestern Chicken Soup: Very comforting and yummy. Lower in calories too. –Buffalo Chicken Ranch Sandwich: Good mix of flavors! –Molten Cakes(for dessert): Pretty dang good and consistent! –The margaritas: The drinks here are at great prices! The Maybes: –Fajitas: While I do like their fajitas, I think the quality has changed over the years. I think they used to have yellow and red bell peppers in the mix– I think it’s just the green now. The peppers, onions and chicken don’t taste as fresh. I’m sure most of chain restaurants food come frozen, but the fajitas used to be more flavorful and the veggies were more crisp. The prices have gone up a few dollars as well over the years. It’s still an overall decent value for what you receive. –Boneless Buffalo Wings: These are a hit and miss. Sometimes they come hot pipping hot, fully covered in sauce and crisp. Other times they come cold, hard and with barely any sauce. Southwestern Eggrolls: Just alright. Not great, but not bad either. Don’t order: –Crispy Cheddar Bites: Def not. The texture was really off. The cheesy wasn’t gooey and when I tore it in half the cheese just split in half. Not the normal texture of cheese… no flavor either –Panko Crusted Onion Rings: So bad. Absolutely no flavor, hard and too much panko. They were very thick and hard and onion rings should have light and crisp coating. I didn’t taste any of the spices, maybe it wasn’t put on them. –Skillet Queso: Really weird tasting and off-putting. –Fresco Salad: I only ordered this salad with my Soup/Salad combo because they stopped serving Caesar Salad. So bland. It’s lettuce, dressing and sprinkled with bits of cheese.

I haven’t been to a Chili’s in a loooong time even though it is one of the closest restaurants to my house because the last few times I’d been to a Chili’s I was not impressed by either the cost-food value or the service. That said, I came into possession of multiple gift cards for Chili’s and decided it was time. In preparation, I signed up online for their rewards program the day before I was planning to go. Figure if I’m going, might as well get some rewards, right? Rewards. Check. We arrive and there are a few people ahead of us and the odd guy running around keeps telling everyone, «it will just be five minutes, it will just be five minutes», but he doesn’t write anything down and more people are coming in. Then he has to ask who was next… it was weirder and weirder, but we were seated at a booth in under 10 minutes, it was just really weird. So, they have these little console thingies on the tables so you can log into your rewards, so I did. Our waiter came by and got our beverage order which was only water on that night and then he didn’t come back for about 10 minutes! It was weird all over again. Finally, he returns and takes our food order and eventually it arrived. Oh, while taking our order he asks if we want more water, we say yes and he proceeds to fill up my husband’s water, but not mine. We ordered the new taco plates and I have to say the tacos are fantastic. I had two shrimp tacos and one carnitas taco and the husband had one fish, one chicken and one carnitas. I loved them; best part of the visit. When delivering our meal a different person brought the food and I asked for more water, she fills up my water, but not my husbands! It was so weird. After that, pretty much we never saw anyone else until we were done eating for a while and our waiter finally showed up to close out or bill. So you can pay your bill on the little device, so I’m doing that, and the good news is I can use the giftcards, the bad news is that weird stuff shows up on there, so some weird messages pops up and it looks like we paid for someone’s margarita… when the guy walks by, we ask for help and he goes off and brings backa receipt to us and says the manager is coming to talk to us. While we’re waiting, I call and verify the gift card balance and review the receipt and find that it appears, our worries were unfounded. I had the correct balance on the gift card, so all is well. Since the manager never came, we head out. The next day I get an email telling me I earned 0 points for my visit. Great. I send them a message and two days later I get another email saying, «oops. sorry. We fixed that for you.» What a pain the behind! Service was ATROCIOUS and that little machine is kind of a pain in the ass, but we have these gift cards, so I expect that i will be going at least three more times to use up the cards and then my rewards. Then, I think I’ll be done with them again for a while.

I haven’t been to Chili’s in ages – maybe 10 years. Last night, we went out to celebrate my brother-in-law’s birthday and he wanted to go to Chili’s. I was surprised at the menu. There are welcome additions. My son who is not a burger person, actually liked the sliders. We were supposed to split it 2 – 2, but he ended up eating 3! Everything we ordered was very good. The only thing off were the fries. I’m not sure, but either they have been sitting on the counter for a while or they reused the oil too often. The host could have handled his job better. He leaves his station, therefore, he doesn’t know who came first. The diners had to figure out who goes on the waitlist ahead of the others. It’s a good thing everyone was courteous last night, but, I can just imagine tempers flaring with that kind of situation. Our server was peppy and very good with re-filling the drinks. She was a little slow on clearing the dishes, though. But, I think they were a little short on waitstaff last night. So, really not her fault. Over-all good experience. Not great, but good.

I see a lot of negative reviews but I go there about twice a month, its me and my 11 year old sons favorite place to go out to eat when its just the two of us. Yes, I am suckered into the one dollar games but its a treat night. We always have fast service and, when I go with my best friend we get the 2 for 20 or 2 for 35 meal and both are great! I’ve had everything from the mango chili tilapia to the honey bbg chicken tenders. I also love their corn on the cob. One of the few chains I will still spend my money at.

This was the best experience I’ve ever had at Chilis. The food was great and service was even better!!! Dorothy was my waitress and just got out of training, she was smart fast and friendly and also helped me make a great selection on what I wanted to eat. I recommend going chilis and checking out their new menu!!! If you go to this one ask for Dorothy!!! She’s awesome
