Well after watching a video on Tik Tok of a girl in Iran expressing her pain of what's happening their I made a duet video of it to share her message. I look up after and it seemed I offended a older Hispanic guy seating two seats away from me. A man who was looking for another man it seems. Anyway, the bar back comes to me along with the bartender and asked me to leave. I was so in shock that I had to make a video of what was happening. SHAME ON YOU MS. ELLY'S“

“I LOVE eating at Chuys in Austin so thought I’d try this location.

You have to start with the jalapeño ranch with your normal chips/salsa. It’s addictive. The chips are light/thin so you probably average eaten a pound before you even realize it.

I branched out and went for the chile relleno this time (I normally get the Baja shrimp tacos which are amazing). When it came out I thought it was the wrong order at first. It looked like a corn dog. The outside was crispy (not a traditional egg batter) but the inside and chicken was very dry. I hate to say it, but I wasn’t impressed.

The service is great and even though I wasn’t totally happy with my dish, I’ll definitely be back for my go to.“
