We spent the night in a hotel near this Chuy’s location in Amarillo. My family wanted to eat at Saltgrass Steakhouse which was also near our hotel but there was a 35 minute wait for a table at Saltgrass Steakhouse.
So we ended up at Chuy’s.
I was a little suspicious about Chuy’s because, while all the other nearby restaurants had full parking lots, the parking lot at Chuy’s was nearly empty.
By the time we left, we fully understood why Chuy’s parking lot was empty. Their food ranged from mediocre to barely edible. No one in our family was satisfied with their food.
Service at Chuy’s was OK and the ambience was fine. But, like most folks, we go to restaurants for the food. The friendly service and ambience are secondary considerations.
It’s really sad to see how Chuy’s has declined. I remember going to the original Chuy’s location on Barton Springs road in Austin in the early 1980s. I really enjoyed dining at Chuy’s back then.
We are unlikely to ever return to this Chuy’s location. While not as bad as this one in Amarillo, the other Chuy’s locations we have tried are nothing special.
I haven’t been back to the original Chuy’s location on Barton Springs road in decades, so I don’t know if it even still exists any more or if it is worth trying.
Farewell, Chuy’s!

We ate chips (with spicy ranch) and sipped on beer for over an hour before we got our raw, cold, burnt, hard, tastless food. The best thing i ate was the ice!!!

This was an amazing experience, we showed up 20 minutes till close and the amazing man Zack at the bar did not hesitate to help us, and on top of that he made me the most amazing drink and what’s even better he’s keeping his best friend alive by telling his story and bartending in his memory! Truly amazing guy and I will be coming back solely because of this man.

This was our first visit here! The service was great! It is authentic Mexican food with great flavor! The sauces are amazing! We loved the atmosphere and decor! We had the grand ma margarita and it was delicious! Our server did a great job and had a wonderful attitude. She even helped my elderly mom packed her to go plate. She was kind and made suggestions. We were definitely impressed and satisfied with everything!

Arrived at 630pm with a party of 8. Wanted thirty plus minutes until sat. Another party of 7 arrived around 650pm, got sat about five minutes after my party did. The party of seven was served and almost finished with their food before ours came out. We didn't even leave the building until 830pm. While the other party was long gone with thetr table cleared before we got a check. Food was okay, not great for the price. Service was terrible, don't know if it was the wait staff or the kitchen or a mix of the two. Either way this is my second time at any Chuy's, I will not be going back.
