It's a chili's. If you're looking for a burger, fried fare, 1300 calorie salads there is nothing wrong with this place. Stopped here for an uncomplicated, simple, know what you're gonna get dinner on a road trip. It delivered on food. It was ok. It's a chili's. Service was better than expected. The bartender/waitress was friendly, attentive and upbeat. We got what we came for. Butt of romaine lettuce ( otherwise pretty tired and not at its prime), 1.5 CUPS of bleu cheese + over fried chicken on the southwest Ceasar is not upsetting, but also not worth more than 3 stars. read more

Terrible customer service, called in a to go order, waited the requested time, went to pick up and it's not even entered. The worker I gave the order to remembered me calling. This was the last chance I gave Chilis, absolutely terrible read more

After my initial review on 3/13/2021, Chili's responded with a $20.00 gift card. I stopped in yesterday for lunch. Hostess needs to learn how to greet customers with a smile and not frown as it is an effort for her to seat guests. Patrick the waiter was spot on and offers great service and conversation. he works hard and makes sure all guests are promptly served and looks for the refill signal. Still saw cleaning fluids and towels sitting on a number of tables during peak serving hours. Not a pleasant view. Cleaning fluids should not be out in the open during operating hours, they should be hidden and out of sight of the guests. Maybe at the cashier station. Food was served hot, what a relief from my last visit. Had the buffalo chicken sandwich with fries. Mild buffalo sauce, which is good, because too hot ruins the chicken. The restaurant still has some performance issues to overcome, but Patrick's service bumped the rating up to 3 stars. read more

just tried to go a have a meal at this restaurant a few minutes ago we were seated but the waiter refused to serve us he took an order for the table behind us and we sat down way before they did when he was told about us not being waited on yet he looked over at us and continued with his other tables it would have been fine if he apologized and said one moment I will be with you but no so we got up and walked out manager was at front and knew about the situation and let us walk out didnt apologize either it is what is we just went somewhere else bad business though that you can have servers who cab just refuse to serve you !! We had been there over 20 minutes at this point so!! read more

Went for Valentine's Day where the wait for any other restaurant was up to 2 hours. We waited 15 minutes, ordered immediately, and had our food to us soon after. The food was just as ordered and the service was amazing. The manager even had chocolate covered strawberries for all the guests. I was very thankful for such a good experience. read more

HORRIBLE! Today was the first time I've ever tried Chilis... I asked for well done steak & it was raw!!! I asked for a cheesecake & they brung it to me on a DIRTY plate. It's extremely crowded & no one is social distancing. I can forgive the steak situation but not the cheesecake because I had the munchies & I really wanted it.. I will NEVER eat here again. read more

Let me start off by saying that I love eating at Chilis! Today I went here and got a 2 for $20. I know coupons are not normally accepted along with the 2 for 20, but I asked the waiter if I could use my "free desert" coupon because it was my birthday. He talked with his manager and he agreed that I could use it. The Chilis staff is amazing!! And their food is up to par with the service! Every time I eat at this location, the food is amazing! I highly 9suggest that anyone in Florence or just visiting stops by! Great service! Great Prices! Great food!! read more

Oh lord. No. I'm really hoping I don't get sick from this meal. They ran out of Thousand Island dressing and didn't tell us until the salads came out. The broccoli? Weirdest texture and flavor - I think they threw it in the microwave with no liquid to soften it. The salads themselves were super wilted. I'm not joking when I say the cucumbers seemed to be well on their way to being pickles. The tomatoes were pretty close to being white in color - they were that unripe. The burger? Dry. The potato soup was ok, and my salmon was surprisingly good - best part of the meal. This place gets a two because the service was adequate - our server was nice and did what she could, but you can't do anything when the food is this craptacular. Chain restaurants are by nature supposed to be average and consistent. This place is barely passable. Eat ANYWHERE else. read more

Visited on 12/27 about 8pm. Restaurant was full, staff was stretched. Husband reported that men's room was dirty. Looking around the dining area, the need to sweep the carpet was very evident. Napkins and other debris littered the room. Wait staff was polite and personable. She explained the bartender was very busy and apologized in advance for the delay in serving our drinks. Husband ordered wings, dry with sauce on the side. When they showed up 25 minutes after ordering, the wings were coated with sauce. Waitress offered to send them back to the kitchen and reorder. My husband refused not wanting to spend any more time waiting for food. My order, small steak with asparagus, was cooked to the temperature ordered and delicious. So, much room for improvement but not a total loss. read more

Checked out the Chilli restaurant near our hotel. Long drive and we were tired. As soon as we walked in I knew we were in trouble. The place smelled like a locker room...sweaty stink! Ordered Mexican chicken soup. Came with weird looking rectangles of spongy stuff (light and dark). Looked like cat food. Inedible. Ugh. Thank goodness I ordered a side of steamed broccoli. It was edible. The glass divider that separated our booth from others was filthy. Best part of our meal was our server. She was energetic and friendly. Run, don'twalk, from this place! read more

food over cooked , no seasons , hard wings , they could of did better by adding more things

I hadn't been to chillis in years! Bummed are appetizer came out burnt food was ok. Drinks were ok had a little buzz.

Disappointed Chili's! I had my going away dinner at the chili's in Tucson, and had great service and food! The Fajitas were amazing! But here In Florence I was disappointed and if it wasn't for the good service the young lady gave me when I picked up my order I would've given you a two stars! The food was bland the guacamole had zero flavor to it. The portion wasn't even close to the amount they gave me when I sat down last and I know to go portions are usually smaller but they are advertising to have the 42% more and it wasn't even enough to make it worth it. The one things that could've saved it was the amount of the veggies that were included, but what ruined that was none of them we even fully cooked. Mostly all the veggies were raw. Overall it wasn't great. I hardly go into chili's and this doesn't help. read more

Went to Chili's for drinks at the bar and Hitch provided great service and casual conversation. Apparently we were both legendary in our early days. So much fun to hang out with her. Thanks for the five star bar service Hitch!! read more

Terrible. We were seated... waited 20 minutes while server after server walked by our table and ignored us. We got up and left without so much as anyone saying "I'll be right with you". read more

Terrible service due to non attentive staff with just 50% capacity due to Covid-19 restrictions. Bland food including brown crusted guacamole. Go to Margaritas down the street if you are looking for better food. read more

Not sure how this place has as many stars as it does... The only saving grace for this place is the server Brandon! He is the best server I've had at ANY restaurant. Back to Chilis...The restaurant in Florence, SC is run by people that do not care about customer service or quality. They do not understand either concept. My husband and I have ordered there a few times hoping things would be better, but they have not. Our last experience, my husband ordered his food through DoorDash. Our order wasn't even cooked all the way! The penne pasta was undercooked; like some pieces were actually crunchy. The chicken was raw pink in the middle. Hubby contacted DoorDash for a refund which they provided. Kudos to them. Hubby then went down to the restaurant to address his concerns with the manager. This guy didn't give 1/2 a s***. Restaurant Manager - "Uhh well there's nothing I can do since you ordered from DoorDash." Hubby - "DoorDash didn't cook it." Restaurant Manager - "Well there's nothing I can do about it." The food was given back to the manager and hubby left... We will not be back! I can promise you that! I'll miss you Brandon. :( read more

The food was GOOD. That wasn't the problem. My husband and I each got a drink. They were also nice, if pricey. We had five different people come to our table - our server took the order, a different guy brought our drinks, a young lady brought the appetizer and a different guy brought the food. We were seated by a fifth person. My husband ordered a side salad which he never got. We had to ask for flatware. Maybe too many servers caused confusion? We did get lots of apologies about the salad, but no offers of a discount. When we got the bill, we were charged for our appetizer, even though we ordered the "two for $22.00" which includes the appetizer. When we pointed this out it was quickly rectified, but really? read more

I cannot explain how bad my experience was. I paid for my order and it was supposed to be ready at 12:30. I pulled up at 12:25 and she said everything is ready and they just needed to bag it. 12:45 rolls around and she said she is still waiting to bag it because she is taking orders. 1:00 rolls around and I ask to speak to a manager who tells me they're just too busy. It is 1:10 and I am still waiting for my order that is most definitely cold. They said to re-make it, it would be another "while" but could not give me an estimate. read more

Service took longer then usual & we didn't get served our beverages until 2 hrs later. In all me and eight other people waited for approximately 2 1/2 hours to be served our food. I understand that due to COVID staff is low. How about making the pay wage a little bit higher that way more workers will apply and keep the job to service loyal chili's customers such as myself. read more

Horrible service in every way possible. Whoever manages this place & the owner needs to reconsider the the restaurant business bc this is not how it's conducted on any level. read more

Awful service. Awful food. We were here for an hour before our food came. It came out stale and re microwaved. The same thing happened to the people next to us. Cannot reccomend. read more

Waiter was ok but food took forever with one meal served 45 minutes before the others came out. When the others arrived, two of three plates were no longer even warm. Restaurant was also dirty and tables uncleared for long periods of time. Not sure if all Chili's have gone downhill but unlikely to try another given how bad the service was here. read more

This is by far the worst Chilis I have ever been to. We ordered fajitas and picked them up and brought them back to our hotel. We opened them up and there were no shells, no cheese, and no salsa. The food was cold. So I called and spoke to the night manager. He wanted ME to get back in my car and drive all the way back to get what they forgot to put in my bag. He asked what he could do, and I suggested he comp one meal. He said he couldn't do that without the meal! So I paid for two meals that I got half of and that was okay with him. Do not go to this restaurant if this is how they treat their customers. read more

I think it was their lettuce that got me sick. Food Poisoning for about a week. Never will go to any of their restaurants again,

Worst we have been here for a hour no appetizer and are food has not came. This is the worst service I had ever had. DON'T COME HERE. I am updating this it's been almost a hour and a half no appetizer or dinner. We got are food but my burger was horrible, McDonald's 1 dollar burger would be better read more

I have visited this location 3 weeks in a row. I take my daughter out just me and her every week. First time was good. Second time was over cooked Manager said I apologize Third time was the worst I ordered and had to ask them to check on my food I had to find someone to request another beverage Waiter told me I will have the manager come speak to me. When she brought out our food she apologized She said the computers messed up the orders I told her that the other 2 couples came in well behind us and they are eating. The computers d read more

Wasted money. Not satisfied with the food. I ordered the mixed fajitas with chicken and shrimp online. This is what I received: 3 chicken strips, 5 shrimp, Mexican rice and some type of soup... can't be salsa, too watery. read more

The worst experience I've ever had at a restaurant. Super slow service. Food was cold, sent it back to be reheated, took 30 min to get it back and the pasta was so overcooked it was in shreds. I will never go back here again. read more

I walked in at 6:30. They appeared to be on a wait so I sat at the bar. There were 3 couples eating at the bar. The bartender was putting an order in the register. She saw me sit down but she didn't acknowledge me. She walked into the kitchen and didn't come back for several minutes. When she returned, she said hello and tossed me a menu. She did not offer me a drink. She walked around the bar serving the others. Then she went into the kitchen again, this time for even longer. At this point I had been at the bar for more than 10 minutes without a drink. I got up and left. This is the 2nd time in 2 weeks I've had terrible service at a Chili's. read more

I would give no stars if I was given the option. We waited 10 minutes just to get our drinks! The waitress never came back, we had to ask for someone else to get her. We waited over 45 minutes for our food! The fries were cold when serve! We ordered a dessert! That took 30 more minutes! When asked for a refund, they finally brought out the item! By the way, there was no wait time to be seated! read more

I came here with my family and the service wasn't great it was alright. They look very shorted staffed and our waitress was decent. Some of the food was cold but the manager was nice and understanding, overall the place needs some work. read more

The waitress we had was good and it wasent her fault they literally over booked til up every table as fast as they can and after we ordered we never seen our waitress again we had to complain to the general manager and she said there was nothing she could do they were short on staff then give your waitress time to catch up! In stead of giving her more tables cuz all your doing is hurting g her and hurting her tips the general manager sucks and chillis in Florence South Carolina is a joke of a restaurant will never be back read more

I would leave 0 stars if possible. Former F&B for 18 years and only once in my life had a worse experience. Wait time for a Saturday wasn't horrible, server was polite and attentive while the kitchen was backed up. 4 meals ordered 2 arrived and the other 2 10+ minutes later, still no biggie for prime time Saturday dinner. When my meal came- Chicken Pasta, there was a 3 inch long piece of plastic in the middle of the meal, luckily it was spotted after the first bite. A couple minutes later my daughter found a larger thicker piece of plastic in her sour cream for her fajitas, most likely from the sour cream container. I immediately contacted the manager and she was kind enough to remove my Pasta, which I did not have remade so left after 1.5 hours with no meal. She also removed the $7 fried pickles. Awesome gesture for finding choking hazards in 2/4 meals. This experience will not only deter me from this Chili's but most likely won't return to any location. Notice the discounts, a meal removed the was never received and $7 pickles! I'm not looking for handouts, but the manager had a very quick apology taking my plate away never to be seen again. First experience that was bad enough for me to leave a review, again I stress the server did his job, the kitchen and manager did not in my opinion! read more

We should have looked at at reviews first as the 1-2 star rating is on point! Small portions... food and drinks. Corporate controlled I assume and the first Mexican restaurant that charges for chips and salsa....really? Left hungry, sober and disappointed read more

Worst chili's ever! Did curbside order and got it 45 mins late, order was wrong and cold. The individual handling the Togo orders was absent and made excuses with out a sincere apology. I would never order for this place. In addition at Togo area you can see how disgusting the kitchen was. Appeared managers were running around being food and one just grapes chips from warmer with hands as he ran by. AVOID THIS PLACE! read more

I'd like to state before writing this review I'm not one to complain about any little thing but I absolutely have No clue how this place is still open. Terrible. Service was horrible, food came out cold, waited almost an hour not able to get our waitress and when she did come she ran before we could finish asking for anything we needed. Waste of time and money. I left HIGHLY unsatisfied. Will not be back. read more

After having to wait for 45 minutes in what looked like the most chaotic front door ever invented, me and my girlfriend were finally seated. After waiting an additional 25 minutes for our drinks, we then waited 40 minutes just for our appetizers. An hour passed before we finally got the wrong food and they had to take it back. I didn't see our server for another 15, who then brought the full rack of ribs that I ordered, only to find that it was cold as ice. I finally got them to take it to the back and when it returned it was nuclear hot as if they threw it in a microwave. Not once did the manager come by and check on us or try to resolve the issue. We ended up only being able to eat the appetizer since my food was wrong, on all levels, and my girlfriends drink never came, and when it did it was completely wrong. I would never, ever go to this place again. read more

Horrible service! We are still waiting for our food as i write this about 45 minutes.. Still no appetizer either...

Good food and service. Food is just a bit too spicy for me and I order the mildest selections. Always too cold inside. read more
