“I love the food. My favorite is the grilled salmon salad. I also Love the 100 grade rating. I didn’t rate it 5 stars because the lighting is always so dim that it’s hard to read the menu. Also, the bathroom is extremely old so always looks dirty. I only saw one bathroom and that was for both men and women. That is unusual for a restaurant.“

“It is Chili's, so... but it's a good one, lol. It was very crowded the night we went, about 7:30 on a Saturday night, and got the usual 20 to 30 minute wait disclaimer; we'll message you. 20 minutes later we were seated and the waitress took our drink order within minutes. (Hang with me here) She was a bit flushed, slightly winded, but very cordial, professional, while being personable. All the staff was. We looked over the menus, and the waitress took our order after getting our drinks as we acknowledged the packed restaurant. We ordered two of the 3 for me deals, and it came before a third of the drink was gone. The smashburger and carne asada were cooked well and were tasty. The asada came with four tortillas, but I ran out of beef after two. Not a complaint, expected, just saying. Football game on with a view of the screen. I wish we could do half stars, cause I'd give the carne 3.5 anyhow, the burger 4.5 maybe. Oh yeah, we split a small molten cake, and it was pretty decent too! This Chili's is run well, has a good staff, pretty decent food, and did provide upfront and great service. On a busy night. We'll see you again!“

“Elle's service was beyond amazing! I just had to leave a review to share how fantastic she was. She was quick, super attentive, and made great suggestions without us even needing to ask. Her warm and friendly personality made the experience even better. When I mentioned the temperature of my bottomless sides, she was so understanding and took care of it right away. If you're heading to this spot, trust me—sit in her section and make sure to tip her generously! You won’t regret it! #askforelle“
