The service and food were both fantastic. The waitress who served me (who I believe is Megan given the name on the receipt), was very friendly. She let me sample their spiciest salsa (green hatch chile) which was good but when I said I didn't find it spicy, she had the kitchen grill some serranos for me to go with my Veggie Enchiladas (which were also fantastic). I was not charged for the salsa sample or serranos. If I lived closer to this side of Lexington, I'd honestly probably eat here all the time. read more

Great authentic Tex mex. Management needs to work on efficiency but food is great! Closest thing to being in Texas

We had pancho's, it's an appetizer, but one order was enough for my wife and I. The service was excellent, they gave us chips and salsa as soon as we sat down. We ordered margaritas and everything was delicious. The restaurant was clean and it felt good to eat there. I would definitely go back. read more

Service was great! Came here for a quick bite and overall the food portions were huge! Definitely a great place for a hearty portion, good food, and snacks! The ranch dipping sauce was amazing with the complimentary chips! read more

Chuy's - Appetizer Plate - Tex-Mex Near Me - Lexington, Kentucky

I was so excited to see Chuy's as a dinner option while on a trip - we do not have them in New England yet. So, we made sure to visit before leaving. For four of us, with margaritas the bill was $91, which I thought was reasonable. We ordered three orders of Fajitas and a Bean Burrito to go with our margaritas. We all enjoyed our food, even my super picky 12 year old nephew said the steak fajitas were amazing! Portions were large and the service was excellent. Our waiter was spot on with all of our add this, don't put that in requests. I wish I had gotten his name to let management know how wonderful he was! Definitely stop in if you are in this area and love Mexican! read more

I have no idea why people eat here. Went in on a Saturday evening around 8; host had no idea where to seat us. Server was attentive but abrupt. Very obviously was ready to leave. Food was barely edible. Nothing remarkable or interesting, except maybe the pictures of customers' dogs all around the restaurant that they do for an appetizer promotion and the mint on the way out. Even the bathroom was super old and barely clean. read more

The food was amazing and right on time especially the tacos and the waitress !! She was so personable and on top of my service !!

Great Food. Great customer service. Fantastic atmosphere for people and families to gather for a great meal.

I always go to chuys when I'm craving some good Tex-mex food. They make the best homemade fresh flour tortillas that I always get Togo. I always get there steak burrito in the green salsa. There chips are super addicting with there creamy jalapeños sauce. Service is always good and since chuys is a chain you always know what you're getting when you go there. It is usually always consistent. The environment inside is super homey as well. read more

Chuy's is a great place to eat Mexican food. The food is always fresh and the service is wonderful. You should also check out their catering services. We worked with Danny and his attention to detail is amazing. Resources read more

I've eaten there twice now the first time I got steak burrito it was very dry, the second time I got the tex-mex enchilada there was absolutely nothing inside the enchilada. I'll go back one more time because my oldest daughter loves it, but if they don't do a lot better the third time will be my last. read more

I typically try to avoid chains, but I'll make an exception for Chuy's, especially when I have kids with me. I'm not sure how they do it in the current market, but somehow Chuy's manages to hire great staff - the hostess/host and bartenders are friendly and the servers are attentive. I love the jalepeno sauce and typically, I'll indulge in multiple margaritas if I'm not driving. My kids love the Quesadillas. My only complaint that is very long running is the Elvis Fried Chicken. Bring it back! read more

The chicken Chuychanga with Boom Boom sauce is my favorite thing! The atmosphere is fun and the chips are super thin and crisp and made right there. The waitstaff are always upbeat and happy to offer suggestions if you have trouble deciding. This place is fantastic! read more

I've eaten here many times and this is an update. I like the food, but servers are very unfriendly. My tip is based on how well a server performs. If they just do the minimum with little contact or personality they'll receive 10% and if they are pleasant, attentive, and conscious about what they are doing... Bingo 20%! When you start the meal off with the hostess throwing the menu down on the table and the table wasn't clean you know right away that things aren't the way you expect it to. Haven't been back for awhile. Hopefully things are much different now. I love their tortilla soup and Taquitos. Once the restroom was clean. I love the cheerful atmosphere. It's bright, fun, and festive. Please work on the staff's attitudes if you haven't already! read more

It started with the light and crispy chips with the creamy jalapeño. Yum!! Then we all had either a steak chuychanga or steak burrito, which were so good! The steak was tender and had a nice chargrilled flavor! Our waitress, Cassie, was great! It was a very busy night and she was new, but she did a fabulous job and was very attentive! Gonna' have to put Chuy's in our rotation!! read more

We met some friends here for dinner as we were traveling thru the area on our way to Myrtle Beach. It was a little out of the way, but our friends ranted and raved about this restaurant all the time and we felt that it was time for us to see (taste) for ourselves. We started with chips, salsa and queso.....it was all great. For my entree I ordered the Tacos Al Carbon (I think it is actually on the menu as a pair, but I wanted just one and they gladly accommodated me). It came with rice and beans and was very good (and plentiful even if it was just one). There were no complaints from anyone at our table. Service was spot on too! If this restaurant were in our area we would be frequent customers. read more

Delicious good, crazy good margaritas, and the best cilantro crema ever made. The Panchos are what all nachos should be, and the chips they give you for the table are paper thin and crispy. So so good. read more

Nothing beats Chuys ranch dip! I think Chiysbusnpretty good for a chain Mexican restaurant.

Jalapeño dipping sauce that comes with chips is amazing! Very good fajitas. Servers are friendly and helpful.

I'm not normally a Mexican Food Diner, but Chuy's changed my mind! Service has been amazing every time I've gone, and the atmosphere is very American for a Mexican restaurant. A perfect representation of the Tex-Mex Dining Genre! I got the "Big-As-Yo-Face" Burrito, and it has been amazing with every sauce! I've been here multiple times, and I 100% plan on going again! read more

Food was terrific. I'm addicted to the nachos with queso. Good service and only a very small wait time. Overall great experience.

Super fun vibe. Service is friendly but honestly slow. The drinks are HUGE and really, really good. Foods not authentic, but who goes to Chuy's for authenticity? Its very busy in there, and if you go with a large party expect people to be walking around you. Food is great, parkings good, ambience is great. Not much bad to say other than the slow kitchen. read more

I have done catering at the Hamburg location and have never had anything but friendly, thorough and prompt service! Kristen is amazing! can't say enough about the great job she does with catering. I also ate lunch there recently and left my new iPhone in the booth. I went back and one of the servers saw me looking and came and gave it to me with a big smile on her face! Needless to say, I'll eat there again. and did I mention, the food has never been anything but fresh and delicious! read more

Tex Mex is a true delicacy I always order the same thing and that's an off menu item called the Shirley Gooey (chicken, queso and rice) never been disappointed with it or the service. I've gone a handful of times with my family and friends a highly recommendable restaurant in my opinion. I'm usually never a chips and salsa person but theirs does hit me different it actually has some heat to it which I do enjoy but my favorite is the queso and creamy jalapeño an easy add on for any dish! In fact the nacho bar is open to all during happy hour so you can grab as many chips and sauces. (this was before covid anyway) read more

This is still my favorite Chuy's location. We always have friendly service and the food is great. Our favorites include the Chuychanga, fajitas, and, of course, the creamy jalapeño (which my husband claims he could drink with a straw, lol). This is a great place for a date night or to meet up with friends and definitely one of our favorite places in town! read more

I don't understand how the food can be awful every time I eat in the restaurant, but when our office orders for lunch it's fantastic!!! It's like i want to order to go, sit down and eat it there. No idea what the disconnect is, but several other people I know have said the same thing. read more

I owe you all a huge update. This is literally now my favorite restaurant in Lexington. My daughter and I literally eat here at least once a week. It's her favorite too. Although there are now two Lexington Chuy's locations, this one is my favorite. I'm not quite sure what happened over the last year, but they changed for the best. Service is always phenomenal, as is the food too. Management here is always on the front line, and friendly. That really reflects in the servers too. Oh, the food... My favorites are the steak fajitas and steak burrito. Their steak here is tender and flavorful, unlike anything you'll find anywhere else. During a slight Lexington shutdown, we came here today for a sense of our normal routine, Saturday lunch/dinner. Our waiter, from last Saturday recognized us from the week before, and said "y'all must love Chuy's". He proceeded to thank us for the support and coming out. Like a manager, but I'm positive he was a waiter. This was a true testament of great management. I literally think all Chuy's locations, or any restaurant, should take note of what they've got going on here. read more

The food was delicious we got all the dips we could to try ! The queso .. yummy ! The beef tacos can't go wrong . Fajita to die for ! Highly recommended read more

After a great recent Yelp event here, I brought my husband and two kids for dinner on a Saturday night. The parking lot looked busy but I quickly found a spot and we were seated promptly upon entering. We did have to wait several minutes before we were greeted by a server and another table even ordered their food in that time. I had the house margarita which was fresh tasting and delicious. I especially love they do not use the pre-made mixes at Chuy's (which is a HUGE plus for me) and my husband ordered a Pacifico. They had given our 2 year-old crayons and a coloring sheet which kept her happy. We were given chips and fresh salsa which definitely had a kick to it. I ordered the chicken soft tacos which I love because the house-made tortillas are awesome and topped with some of their jalapeno ranch are killer. My husband got the Chicka-Chicka-Boom-Boom which is his go-to meal here and he ate every bit. We ordered the mini tacos for our daughter and the portion was really big for a kids meal. She especially loved the rice that came with and anything that satisfies a picky toddler is a win for us. It was fairly busy on a Saturday night, which should be expected but our server was great. Our food came out quickly and he checked in on us multiple times. I definitely recommend Chuy's for your Tex-Mex cravings - while it is a chain restaurant, the food is always very fresh and tasty! read more

Chuy's has a little bit of everything: delicious food, fun atmosphere, good service and a convenient location. Chuy's is also really good for groups. This location is tucked away behind another restaurant and a car dealership. I know, strange right? However, it is really convenient to where I live so we always go. This visit was wonderful. We were seated immediately upon entering. Our server was very nice and chill. It was like a friend was serving our table with how he interacted with us. I forget his name, but he was great. Our food came out in great time. I got the Chalupa and Enchilada while my fiance decided on the Chicken Flautas. Both were delicious! The chicken was cook well, but the best part was the green sauce on mine. IT WAS SO GOOD. Chuy's creamy jalapeno sauce is the best as well! You can ask for it with the chips at no charge. Parking for this Chuy's location is actually really good. Due to their unique location, it's not really ever busy on the road they're located on and they have a fairly large parking lot. Keep in mind that this location is busy on the weekends so you may experience a wait. Be sure to check out Chuy's! You won't regret it! read more

You can never go wrong with Chuy's! I absolutely love everything on their menu, and the service is consistently excellent. They have the best salsa in town--it's more like pico than watery tomato, which makes all the difference. Highly recommended! read more

This is a good Tex Mex restaurant. There is a lot to choose from on the menu and also includes vegetarian options.

I visited Chuy's with some co-workers after work recently for happy hour and dinner. They were able to easily accommodate our party of 9, and we were seated right away when we arrived at 4:30. Our waiter started us off with chips and salsa and took our drink orders. The salsa was good- but EXTREMELY spicy- and I usually really like heat. When we made a comment to the waiter about it, he said that the serranos were really hot that day. Chuy's is known for their thin salsa consistency- I'm more of a "chunky" salsa kind of gal, but some people in out group were disappointed that it was inedibly hot. I ordered a side of rice and sauteed veggies with a side of avocado. (Note: the beans are vegetarian but not vegan). I enjoyed my meal, but it was pretty basic food. Some people in our group reported that their food was too spicy- we were guessing as a result of the hotter-than-normal serranos. Maybe if they are too hot, use less? Or indicate somewhere on the menu that a dish is extra spicy? The next day, a few people in our group said that their cards got charged twice from Chuy's. I don't want to make any accusations, it very well could have been an honest mistake. Everything considered, the next time I get a craving for Mexican, I think I will try somewhere else. read more

I had never been to a Chuy's before, so I was excited to give it a shot and I must say that I was impressed. From the very start, as I tasted the complementary salsa, it was obvious that fresh ingredients were being spotlighted. I knew we were in for a treat with very fresh tasting tomatoes combined with Serrano Chilies which provided a nice warm heat. I chose the Fired Up Steak Enchiladas from the Hatch Green Chile feature menu and loved it! It consisted of fajita steak and cheese rolled in corn tortillas, smothered in Red and Green Chile sauces. And to top that off, grilled onions, more peppers, and more cheese was applied. I'll definitely be back for this dish! The Red and Green Chile sauces had a really deep earthy, smoky taste which was quite addictive. My dinner companion enjoyed the Pablo's Enchiladas which featured chicken and cheese rolled in four tortillas which were covered in a cream sauce with Green Chiles and Poblano Peppers. This entree was topped with pico de gallo and Green Chiles. Finally, for dessert, we shared a HUGE piece of Tres Leches cake which was served with a caramel sauce and strawberries! WOW! Always a favorite, this was one of the best I've ever had! Tara and I are now both new inductees into the Chuy's fan club. And we'll be returning soon! read more
