Review from Amber W.
1/11/2012 1 Check-in Here
In the history of Chili's restaurants, this has to be one of the worst. I normally like Chili's for it's quick food and cheap prices, but this Chili's has the worst service ever.
If you plan on going here for lunch, make sure you have well over an hour. This location can NEVER get you out of there in under. When I go I typically order soup and salad, along with my colleagues. Easy, right? You'd think so, but it is not the case here.
Typically this location takes AT LEAST 30 minutes just to bring soups and salads. Ridiculous, especially when people are pressed for time during lunch hours. Following getting your food, it takes forever to get a bill processed. Last time we went our waitress quickly threw our checks on the table and fled. We all had our cards out, ready to go, but we had to wait another ten minutes for her to return.
As for safety, I've read about in other reviews, I don't think it is really a concern. I work for the district close by and have never had problems. I think it may have been an isolated incident. There are certainly an assortment of people there, but wake up, this is America and you're eating at Chili's, not Vic & Anthony's.
My main issue is with the service and lack of managerial presence to correct these problems. With a few simple adjustments, this could be a better location. Until then, I may reconsider visiting. -

This restaurant makes me want to take back every one star rating I've ever given. I clearly do not meet the standard demographic of this place, and I felt more endangered than when I took a bus to Tijuana and walked across the border. This place is in the GHETTO (am I allowed to say that? ).
1. I hate chain restaurants (minus two stars already). I was there for a work situation. Still, no excuses, I went there. I am ashamed.
2. To paint a picture of the patrons: barefoot children running into the kitchen, servers with facial piercings and an unfamiliar form of spoken English, no host, several large, tatted, cut-off sleeved, bald men at the bar, and my favorite the morbidly obese.
3. The food was gross. I got a salad of iceberg lettuce completely soaked in dressing. However, it's Chilis, what can I expect.
4. The woman at the table sitting next to us was something I couldn't have imagined if I had eaten mushrooms before we arrived. She had curved fingernails that were about 8 inches long!! They were like the claws of a two-toed sloth, but worse. They had been airbrushed orange and she was holding her personal items with a self-taught death grip to accommodate these monsters.
As we eavesdropped her conversation with the crowd of waitresses around here, we gathered that she grows out her fingernails (and toenails - so gross I won't even go there) and sells them on the internet!!!!! How is there a market for that???Sick.
5. Time to go. Finally. We leave, only to find that my boss' rental car had been broken into via the window and her laptop stolen in a lit area in front of the restaurant.
6. The police came, and they wouldn't even get out of their vehicle. Enough said about our safety at this point.
Overall, I would say do not go to this restaurant unless you are into masochism, fetishes, gang banging, upset stomach, or an overall desire to put yourself in danger. With that said our waiter and the manager were pleasant.
I left here far too long after I would have liked with a decreased faith in humanity, one less anxiety pill in my purse, a stomach ache, and an urge to buy a Tazer. -

We normally go to the chilis off 290 near mangum. but it was shut down. obviously we haven't been there in quite some time. but we ended up going to the chilis off 290 and hollister.
my kids love it there! same food. my baby adam is 2 and he loves their queso and chips. or maybe he just wants to eat like us. but either way he ate everything we put in his face except the corndog. first time i tried the chipole shrimp. it was good.
we will definitely come back. kids love it! -

Fellow Luncher has always been a fan of Chili's and I just kind of tag along with him but this past Friday lunch experience has made me a fan myself. We came in for a special promotion they have going on. If you haven't seen the commercials on TV, you get 1 appetizer, 2 entrees, and 1 dessert for 20 dollars!
We had the half order of Texas Cheese Fries for the appetizer and the Molten Chocolate Cake for dessert. He had the Country Fried Steak and I had the Mushroom Swiss Burger. Everything tasted delicious-o-yummy-in-ma-tummy! I was really worried that with the crowd the food would be sloppily prepared but everything came out perfect, and in a timely manner.
I think they really stepped up their staff number. Because I've been here a few times and the wait is usually long, even during the after lunch rush when there's hardly anybody there. Yet this time we got seated right away and when our waiter came we gave him our complete order. We were given our drinks promptly and our courses came at perfect intervals. He even bought refills out for us without us having to ask, that was a very nice touch.
All in all, this deal is too good to pass up. Our portions were so big we each had a to go box. So you're getting a 3 course meal and a midnight snack, for two, for only 20 bucks! Hello??? Invite someone you've been having your eye on to dinner here already! -

Not many vegetarian options when you eat out with your family. I found the waitress intimidated because I asked if this had meat in it or any animal products. She was rude agitated and a hot mess. Very ignorant of her to get rude because I don't eat meat.
All I can suggest is chip and dip. Black beans/rice. Maybe their spinach dip depending if you are a vegan. Stay away from the salads they are not vegetarian friendly. Most of the stuff on the menu is partially hydrogenated that goes for non vegetarians as well that watch their healthy. Salt is common and not friendly if you are sodium sensitive. -

I love to eat at chilli's but only the ones @ 290. This chilli is always packed during the weekends. I give them props for trying hard to help everyone when it gets full, but when that happens you can tell that the arguing begins within its staff. I didnt enjoy it becouse I felt rushed to eat so someone else can eat. I would not recommend this place unless you have the patience to wait to get seated.
