    Sunday afternoon for a late lunch, Hector was our server & bartender and so great. We shared the beef fajitas with a side salad, delicious green chili ranch. The beef came out sizzling on a bed of the best vegetables. The restaurant is decorated very tropical and we loved the photos posted of all the dogs who have visited

    Love going to Chuy's in Austin and wanted to come here to revisit the memories. First, they recently relocated and the new location is very big. Lots of tables and no wait for lunch on Saturday. The service was decent and the food was good, but not as great as what I remembered. The prices are reasonable and the free chips and salsa are amazing! It's a very family friendly restaurant and the decor and colors are vibrant.

    The blandest Tacos Al Carbon I've ever tasted

    I normally don't give out a bad review but, I can't help myself on this one. Food at best is Tex-Mex, which is about all the good I can say. Zero flavor, zero spice, literally no salt or pepper, beans were dry, rice was dry, meat was dry. It tasted like they are cooking for 80 year-old white people who are allergic to spice. Also, hot sauce was not hot at all.

    Chuy's never disappoints. I decided to try something new here, the Mexicobb salad. I was pleasantly surprised by how large and tasty it was! Definitely recommend eating it with come creamy jalapeño! Service was great and we were able to walk in without needing to wait for a table thanks to joining the online waitlist. There is parking behind the restaurant but it looked like it could fill up fast so beware.

    Had a great time here on Saturday, National Margarita day!! I called the day before to be sure they had something going on and they had several drinks specials. I opted for the $5 premium shot for my margarita on ice. Of course it was PACKED - as always and expecially because the sun was out & it was a great day for the people who live in the neighborhood to walk over. And this location is moving soon - due to development here. My friend & I managed to get seats near the front door so people-watching added to our lunch. We had the apps and drinks and got so full we didn't make it to the enchiladas I was dying for! From the time I entered the service was great, these people have been trained well. I was answered even as they ran by. The bartender was super busy but when I hesitated on which drink special I wanted, he stopped to explain what each one was. I took his suggestion of the shot, which was really what I wanted anyway, lol. But great service deserves a tip, don't forget! These people were working hard. Our server was friendly and didn't rush us. Food was served hot and timely and she checked if I wanted another drink but oops, forgot to notice my water was empty and the salty food and rimmed drinks make you thirsty for water. I asked for it and she brought it with my 2nd margarita. The apps were awesome but I forgot to take a photo before we dived in! Go see Chuys!

    Amazing chips and salsa  with the drink menu

    Had the most fabulous lunch today at Chuys. Walked in at 2:30, and was immediately seated. Wanted something filling but not too heavy. Decided on the appetizer sampler plate,lunch priced @$14! Had alittle of everything that I was looking for. The chips and the salsa were really good. Good combination of cilantro, onions and tomatoes. Chips were hot and a little salty. But still really good till the main course came out. The atmosphere inside is really cool and pretty eclectic. Huge bar area right by the front door. They have happy hour 3 to 5 daily and weekend specials too. The inside was very spacious with lots of tables and booths. Or if you want to sit outside, they have plenty of seating there as well. You can even look up and see the dancing frogs above your head. If you decide outside is your jam. My server was Melissa, she was very attentive and made sure I had everything I needed. Even gave me a to go water. I wish we had a Chuy's in Rockwall. They would definitely give some of our Mexican restaurants a run for their money. I would love to come back and try some of their drink specials. They look and sound yummy tasting!

    We had a great experience at Chuy's! The food was delicious, and our server was very attentive and friendly throughout the meal. The atmosphere was fun and relaxed. We'll definitely be back!

    Just look at my pics! Queso with boom boom sauce looks like green pea baby food. The taste is just as awe full. The refried beans used taste of a can and there is no taste of queso at all. The frozen margaritas are good but not really strong. It's one of those places that gives you cheaper quality food and drinks, dressed up as Tex mex for cheap price point. Your body would thank you to visit a good Tex mex place such as Los Palmas or hit up El Tizoncito for their awesome frozen margaritas. Where just one is guaranteed to give u a buzz. Super tired of restaurants taking advantage of their customers. This certainly isn't what it was 5 years ago. #pass4now

    I owed a neighbor a dinner and margaritas for watching our pets during our most recent vacation and have been busy, but I finally remembered he wanted to watch the NBA draft, so we went to our now, local Chuys for my first time and his second! We sat at the bar and Grace our bartender was very attentive! Something I have always enjoyed about Chuy's is the great colors, tile work and art on the walls, not to mention Elvis Fan!! We each got several combos of the frozen margaritas...my favorite was lime and strawberry. Got the fajitas and they did not disappoint, although I wished they had corn tortillas...Great location and great service...I will be back! :) --- Do advise to get there earlier or later, as the place does get busy during peak hours.

    I had never been to a Chuys but heard great things about the Jalapeño ranch so that was my sole reason for going. I went for lunch and was given the chips and salsa both of which were incredibly fresh. The salsa still had foam in it from the blender and the chips were warm from the fryer. I asked for the Jalopeno ranch for my chips and the server kindly brought one for each of us. Also points that they give each person their own salsa bowl I love that. Well after we downed a whole basket of chips we were already full but I got the chicka chicka boom boom enchiladas which were delicious the sauce was perfectly spiced! My brother got the Baja shrimp tacos which he also liked! I will definitely be back

We received two different salsas, a green one and a red/brown smoky one, the smoky salsa was really good, and it had almost a smoky, very chipotle flavor. The chips themselves were warm and crispy, they were also pretty good with both of the salsas. I asked for the Avacado shrimp salad, and after about 10-12 minutes all of our food came out, despite the restaurant being busy. In total we ordered my salad, a Cactus empanada of sorts, a couple tacos as well as a couple enchiladas. For about 20 dollars, the proportion of my salad was stellar! I got plenty of shrimp as well as a gracious amount of Avacado to go with it, all sitting on a bed of crispy salad, diced cucumbers and grated cheese (not sure which cheese.) The enchiladas were delicious, I got a bite of it and it was very bright, the mushrooms in it went well with the flavor they were trying to go for, and the sauce on top was delicious. The music wasn't too loud but it was noticeable, the lights all around were nice and dim, and there was occasional floral and red candle decorations around the place giving it a flowery, near authentic Tex-Mex restaurant experience. I highly recommend this place for anyone looking to get really good Tex-Mex food with a very nice service! P.S: I love that they have the addition of mouthwash in their bathrooms, perfect for adjusting your breath on a date. But do not make the same mistake I did of pumping mouthwash onto your hands thinking it's soap, don't be like me

I remember when they were located further down Lemmon Avenue in a much smaller space. They've since moved uptown, and the new digs are beautiful and very inviting. After we were seated, our server, Ruben, greeted us with a warm smile. We were especially excited since we arrived just in time to catch their lunch specials--and there are plenty of great ones to choose from. We started with a couple of frozen margaritas and a cup of queso while browsing the menu. The margaritas were spot-on--not wimpy at all, with just the right kick. And the queso? Absolutely outstanding--some of the best we've had in a long time. The salsa was excellent as well. My wife chose the lunch-sized chicken quesadillas, while I went with the #7 lunch special, which included a cheese taco, a chicken enchilada, and a beef enchilada topped with chili con carne. Our meals arrived after a short wait, and everything exceeded expectations. My wife was thrilled with the portion size--it was just right--and she was all smiles after her first bite. The chicken fajita meat was tender, flavorful, and perfectly marinated. My lunch special hit the spot and delivered exactly what I was craving. We had a fantastic experience at Mia's Tex-Mex. Ruben took excellent care of us throughout our visit, and we'll definitely be back again soon!

Service could not have been better. Portions are generous. I will come back here again when I am in the area.
