    Taco!!!
    Jennifer A.

    Delicious frozen signature cocktails and delicious food! Came to Lubbock for graduation and came to Chimy's two days in a row. Really enjoy this place!!! Please expand your franchise to Tampa, FL.

    Chimys is okay lately, but Synthia (sorry if I spelled that wrong) needs a raise. I come here w my people entirely too often and this the only bartender who ever smiled at us. She was happy to be there, unlike the other bartenders I've experienced here.

    The margs are made with everclear... pro or con depending on your taste. You will only taste alcohol. Uber & stay safe y'all.

    We had just landed in Lubbock on Friday for the Texas Tech football game this weekend and met some friends at Chimy's for a drink. Wow, the entire restaurant was packed inside and the outdoor patio as well. The drinks were cold, and we enjoyed the atmosphere inside the bar.

    Chicken fajita tacos.

    If you are a relatively poor college student, who, ironically, happens to live in a college town, have no sense of taste, and just need cheap drinks and something in the gut to soak up the alcohol, this place is for you. Look at the majority of reviews. They mention the "great" drinks and hardly mention the food... If you are say...25+, have taste buds, a decent palate, but STILL like cheap drinks...this is place is for you. Just don't eat. The tacos were a solid meh. Processed cheese and mass produced tortillas really masked the flavor of the chicken, which in and of itself, was relatively dry. I applied a lot of pico just to get it down. Portion size is decent though. If you are say...25+, have taste buds, a decent palate, and don't require being smashed before 6PM...I would recommend Chili's down the road. That's right. You heard me. I would recommend Chili's over Chimy's. That should be all you need to know. Rock solid 2 stars.

    Wanted to check this place out but it's a shame the door guy is prejudice. It appears he only allows a certain race (white) and sexuality (straight) into the bar. On the night of Friday 3-17-23 I decided that I wanted to try this bar. I'm always open minded and like to try new things. When I approached the entry, there was a young door guy with a cowboy hat on. He looked me up and down, I provided a valid ID, and he still refused to let me enter. I would like to note that I am well over 21 and my ID reflects that. When I asked him what his reasoning was to not let me in he just gave me a blank stare. His buddies (who all looked the same as him) snickered as I walked away. He was speechless. He knew better than to admit the real reason why he wouldn't let me in - that is, because they obviously have a problem with my community.

Queso, bean & cheese panchos, chicken quesadillas and chicken flautas. Served with guacamole, jalapeños and sour cream. What a great surprise and a great way to sample several items. The queso, bean and cheese ponchos were very good. 1/2 crispy tortilla covered with beans and cheese. There was sour cream and guacamole on the plate for whatever you want to add it to. Chicken quesadillas were delicious as well with a great flavor. The chicken flautas were perfectly cooked and tasted great. They were all freshly cooked. We can't eat the spices so we requested no jalapeño's. The queso was very good with only a mild bite of spice. Our only minor issue is that the chips brought to the table break too easily and it is difficult dipping without them breaking. The salsa was too hot for us but I'm sure it is great for most others ordering. The platter was enough for the 2 of us to share and even bring some home for a snack later! This may be our new go to Mexican restaurant!

We started with the house chips and salsa trio, which is always a win here. The chips were warm and crisp, and the variety of salsas--from bright and fresh to deeper and more roasted--made it easy to keep reaching for "just one more." A solid way to kick things off. For my main, I went the veggie route, and honestly, this was the standout of the meal. The sizzling vegetable fajitas arrived steaming hot and loaded with broccoli, cauliflower, mushrooms, peppers, tomatoes, and squash--perfectly cooked, well-seasoned, and served on a cast-iron skillet that kept everything hot down to the last bite. Colorful, hearty, and surprisingly satisfying, even without meat. The rest of the table went more traditional with enchiladas, rice, beans, guacamole, and queso, and everything looked generous and comforting in that familiar, crave-worthy Tex-Mex way. Portions are filling, flavors are approachable, and it's easy to find something for everyone at the table. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, with a lively bar area and cozy booths that make it a great spot for a casual dinner, family outing, or low-key night out. Service was friendly and efficient, and everything came out exactly as expected. Abuelo's may be a familiar name, but when you're in the mood for reliable Tex-Mex, solid vegetarian options, and a relaxed, welcoming vibe, it absolutely hits the mark.

I got the steak fajita combo which was very well prepared, came with 4 tortillas and a few sides, and of course a massive plume of steam which blinded me (8/10). I also tried some of the shrimp nachos from my friend which were quite good, but they were like... just nachos... so kinda overpriced (6/10). Complementary Chips were alright, salsa was eh, they had a bowl of choco mints which was a nice gesture. Service was quite standard, indoor decore was also standard. They had an entire garlic bunch near where I sat which, I presume, was there to ward off vampires??? So the establishment probably has had an issue with a coven in the past so that's mildly concerning. 10/15 Pretty good Tex mex, kinda mixed value for the price though, standard ambiance, standard service. Saved by the decent quality and the vampire protection.

When we sat on the bench to wait we noticed the other hosts were very busy. When a younger host came up she proceeded to yell at her. Then a server came up and she also was disrespectful to him. We thought that maybe she was just busy folding menus so thought nothing of it. But when we were leaving, I noticed a different host folding menus and she immediately helped the next people to come in. Me and my wife felt extremely disrespected by her. If not for her we would be leaving a 5 star review as the food, our server, and host were amazing.
