“I have had a couple of off experiences with the app. Not wanting to work at certain times I won't get into details. But I will say their kitchen manager called me back even after I didn't request a call back. Because he was determined to figure out what the issue was and make it right. Very impressive and completely turned around my mood.

Thanks Wings!“

“hella kind, friendly, & absolutely caring & over the top servers & I can say that bc I have witnessed it as well as can vouch for being one of them myself. our servers go above & beyond for our customers bc making sure their visit was over the top satisfactory & that they leave with a smile when walking out the door promising that they will be back is what our servers thrive for with every single person that enters our doors. the food is amazing, fast, cheap, & the food preparation is always clean & on point. don't get me wrong, when we as a staff make mistakes we have no issue owning up to it & doing everything we possibly can to be able to fix the wrongful situation by any means necessary bc we never want someone to walk out those doors unhappy about their services they received all around as a whole complete store/staff.“

“First time back in about 6 months. Food and waitstaff were great, but we had to wait almost 30-40 minutes for fish. There was a number of tables that were there before us that also had been waiting because you could tell by their face. We’ve never had to wait more than 10 minutes for fish to be delivered. They also are usually packed at 6:30 with a line for a table and the place was clearing out. What has changed with the delivery speed???“

“Was greeted and seated promptly. I was sat in a corner on a high top table so it was hard to see me but waitress was very quick to get to me and told me she didn't see me and apologized immediately for any kind of wait. Which was only a few minutes, if that. She took my drink order and my food order which I picked the Triple Dipper which I HIGHLY recommend. As I was going between the southwestern egg rolls and the big mouth bites, I made a slight comment of it and she recommended that both were great which I already knew 😁 BUT I finalized on the southwestern egg rolls and she laughed and said she didn't want to talk me out of my decision which I respected but she said I made the right choice and maaaannnnn she was right! The avocado ranch alone is to die for!!!! My food came out perfect and hot in about 8 minutes. And was served by a very sweet and kind gentleman promptly. My waitress was prompt and checked on me regularly. Filled my glass when it was half full and stayed on top of things. The restaurant is clean, very well maintained, and has the best employee atmosphere. I HIGHLY recommend this Chili's 🌶️. I live an hour and a half away and will most definitely be returning as a normal or regular customer!!!!“

“I rolled through the drive through Friday on my way home and its been forever since I had steak and shake and when I say forever I do mean many years. To the the least that when we ordered the food seemed high to me but I dont mind paying a little more if its worth it and to say the least this burger and fries met and exceeded my expectations, the burger was cheesy and peppery the 2 things I absolutely love when it comes to burgers the fries were great the amount of food I got and the size of the soda made the price of everything ok. I will definitely be back again when I find the opportunity.“

Everything was fresh and plentiful, but I would suggest they put signs by all the items so we can tell what some of them are. Dessert area had at least 12-13 different items. Chocolate cake was great! We were there around noon, for lunch.“
