“Took my wife here on a lunch date. The food was in my opinion delicious. Was only $20 for both of us. I thought it was priced very reasonable I would have paid more actually. Service was great. Not sure why this place wasn't packed on a Saturday. I made sure my tip reflected the food and service.“

The staff was easy to work with, accommodating various requests, offering restaurant decorations and attentive during the entire event.

It was perfect for a small group. The food was very good, good bar food menu to choose from, was served pretty quick too considering we all converged there at the same time. Perry is my hometown, I will go back when I'm in town.“

“Visited last nite for the first time. Met friends who came over from Laingsburg and we came from Lansing. My hubby loves gizzards. They were the first thing he saw on the menu. Thats all he needed to see. They were excellent. I had the southwest eggrolls. Loved em. We will be a more regular customer. Its a short drive and worth every mile. The service was excellent as well.“

“I want to thank Terry at the Okemos, MI store for saving our family Christmas! I got there ten minutes after the store closed and I was devastated. I got on my phone to check their hours. To my surprise, someone answered the phone! When he found out I was in the parking lot, Terry came and let me in so that I could buy the ham for our party. He had to turn the lights on and reopen the register, but was nothing but friendly and cheerful! Many employees wouldn't have even answered the phone, but Terry went above and beyond. Thank you for making our family party meal a success! (By the way, the ham was absolutely delicious!)“

“The server was friendly and helpful. The food was great. The coffee was great too. She even refilled my water“

“This is my ideal place to meet up with friends or get coffee while I shop in the bookstore. It is very cozy, friendly, and convenient. The food is always good. I am so glad that this place is open following the COVID pandemic. You can also be here alone while eating and, in the meantime, reading a book or magazine.“

“Great place to eat with open air large windows and good selection of food. It took awhile to get our food, like 45 minutes. I wish the waitress would have told us an approximate time for our food. They must've had a large coward on the top deck because it was not very busy on the main floor.“

“Our server, Abby, was amazing. She made the experience. The food was great. Portions were actually way too big, but we have another meal now with our left overs. I would definitely recommend Chili’s in Okemos and ask for Abby. And no, we are not her family nor have we met her before. Thanks Abby!!!“
