My son and daughter-in-law invited my wife and I to join them at Chuy's for dinner. We were greeted by a friendly staff and seated immediately. Chuy's definitely has an upbeat vibe and all the other guests seem to have tons of energy. It just happened to be happy hour, so we ordered some margaritas, a beer and an order of queso compuesto. Their chips are so light and tasty. The. Creamy Jalapeño Salsa and queso compuesto were absolutely delicious. Our party ordered the House Made Tortilla Soup, steak fajitas and a Chuy Gooey. Everyone seems satisfied with their dinners. While the fajitas were a little underseasoned, they were still delicious. Just needed a hint of salt. Overall, the evening was incredible. And we appreciate Chuy's kind stuff for the memorable night. read more

Some awesome margaritas. Great specials. Fun atmosphere. There can be a bit of a wait because this is a popular restaurant. So expect to wait on Friday nights after work. Been here 3 times and had to wait 2 of the 3. Good prices. Food is fresh which is nice. The drinks are made daily with few ingredients and natural. Really have enjoyed the experience. When I take pics will try and post on here. read more

I have been to this location a couple of times, and let me tell you, the staff is always friendly and helpful, and the food is always good. One of my favorite things about Chuy's, to me, is the salsa and the jalapeño ranch. If I go to a Mexican restaurant and the salsa is bad, the food typically is as well, that's not the case for Chuy's. I wish there was one on my side of town, fingers crossed we can get on in Wilson County. I totally recommend, you get a lot of good food for the money. I will definitely be back. read more

My family came to visit from NM and we had a great experience Sunday 8/22 for dinner. The food was all delicious and each meal could feed two. Our waiter Byron was fantastic.Extremely attentive and efficient. read more

We love Chuy's. Especially the creamy jalapeno which I am known to buy in quart size. The food is always good. The tortilla soup is perfect for a cold day. And there many options for vegetarians. read more

Love our Chuys! Salsa is drool!! Wish portions were a bit hearty but overall love all their dishes and fun atmosphere - try to go every week

The chips and salsa were the best part of the meal... This was a 2 order table. My friend ordered the chicken fajita burrito and a margarita, that didn't have any alcohol in it. My boyfriend and I ordered the mixed fajita burrito and the king's memorial platter. An iced tea and Dr. Pepper. Our server was rude, and too interested in watching her co workers playing with each other. The table behind us never got the food that they ordered. Yes it was busy, but not busy enough to miss an order with 2 adults and 2 children. The saving to that was that they were going to the movies and could eat popcorn... The restaurant was playing Christmas music. We used to really enjoy coming here tonight was just not the night... read more

Not quite sure about the bad reviews. Personally being from California. I don't expect good Mexican food anywhere else really. Even in other states on the border it's different. When my family said we were going to the only good Mexican place out here I was still unsure. But when I saw Tex mex I got more optimistic. I really enjoyed the meal. The service was great and so was the music and vibes. LOVE the cilantro sauce that comes with the chips. My sister in law even took a container to go. The salsa is also really good. I don't care for hot sauce type salsa. I prefer thick, chunky, slightly spicy one and that's what you get here. Being Tex mex there was a lot of green chile in the menu. Not a huge fan but I went ahead and ordered the green chile fried chicken and asked for some of the cilantro sauce for it. The chicken was awesome and really hit the spot. Rice and beans were good. I like when the beans come with cheese but that might be a California thing and not many places can top my grandmas rice but these sides were adequate. We also had the sampler appetizer. I only tried the flauta because that's what I intended to order for my meal and it was good, I would recommend. The iced tea was really good. Not sure if it's sweet tea, probably was cuz it was sweet but it had just a light flavor and one of the best teas I've had. My family really likes this place so I'm sure I'll be back in my next visit to Murfreesboro and I actually look forward to it. read more

I ate a lot of Chuy's in college, so a meal at any of their locations always feels a bit nostalgic to me. As far as chain restaurants go, Chuy's is top tier. Everything is made in-house (including their sauces) and most of the items on their menu are relatively inexpensive! My husband and I stopped at this location for dinner on the way to a music festival, and grabbed a few of the open high-tops in the bar area. Our waitress was awesome - I wish I remembered her name! She brought our drinks and food out to us quickly, and went above and beyond to make sure that we had everything we needed during our dinner. I've had practically everything on the menu at this point, and while I truly don't think there's a bad order, there are some definite highlights. The combo fajitas are perfect for sharing, but if your partner has eyes for a burrito instead, you can opt for the chicken fajita tacos to enjoy the same type of food in a smaller dish. Speaking of the burritos, they're also delicious. The steak burrito is made to be spicy, but you can get it topped with queso to help tame down the heat. read more

Disappointing. This location of Chuy's has gone down since Covid. To begin with, the table was extremely sticky. The floor looked as though it had not had a thorough cleaning in a while. There was food under the tables from previous diners. The restaurant was not busy on this Wednesday night at all so whoever was responsible to clean had plenty of opportunities. The margarita was syrupy sweet. The beef fajita tacos al carbon had an unbelievable amount of onions on them and very little meat. The chips and salsas were fine. Additionally, our server did not know why the chile rellenos were not on the menu, but thought maybe they had them on the weekend? Frankly, she seemed confused about several of the items on the menu. If one does choose to go here, do pickup or delivery, but keep in mind that if the public places (I.e., the table and dining room floors) are dirty, how are the places one cannot see (I.e., the kitchen) kept? read more

It's been a while since we've been there, but thought we'd try it again. So glad we did. It was so good. We got the fajitas for two and it was great! The steak tasted more like a steakhouse steak than a regular fajita steak. So good and so much food. Loved the salsa and the jalapeno ranch that came with the chips, too. Definitely will be back!! read more

We have always enjoyed Chuy's but this time the place was different. The menu has changed less variety. And the place needs a good cleaning. The pendant lights above the booths are covered in what looks like paper dots and are coming off. You can see inside the lights and I don't think they had ever been cleaned. The service was okay a little slow. I ordered the fajitas the tortillas were not done. My husband ordered the burrito bowl and the hamburger meat was cold and had no flavor. We were very disappointed in this visit. read more

I've been going to this same location for the past 16 years, and not once have I had a horrible experience. Chuy's is still one of my favorite Tex-Mex restaurants. I recently enjoyed their new Chile relleno, with its light and crunchy batter, and flavorful filling. I loved this type of batter than the egg one that's found at most Mexican restaurants. I also ordered my favorite ponchos. Can't go worn with that! Our server was wonderful and kept up with our table. The environment is alway so upbeat and fun! read more

Stopped by for a quick happy hour and used a gift card. The bar staff was incredibly friendly, and their teamwork really stood out. I had the tacos, and my husband enjoyed the enchiladas--both were delicious! I do miss the taco trunk they had pre-COVID. If you're looking for a fun spot with quirky decor and a great Tex-Mex vibe, I'd definitely recommend this place. read more

Came here for lunch today after a nice walk so we were good and hungry. Got seated right away, drinks came out fast and staff friendly and helpful. My husband ordered some enchiladas and I got the combo fajitas. Both had good flavor and seasonings. Meats were moist. I ate half my food and still had alot of left overs. Plenty of parking, good music and plenty of seating inside. We will definitely be coming back in the future to try different items. read more

Been dining here since they opened...sadly things have gotten stagnant and stale. I sure do miss the "pre-Covid" version of Chuy's...all the food and drink options along with the trunk full of Happy Hour snacks! The trunk is gone, the lady making tortillas no longer needed, and the menu is a shadow of its former self. I have not visited in quite some time due to limited options but hoped things had improved. The bartender set me up with a beer and some chips with jalapeño ranch...the highlight of the visit. Went with Baja Shrimp Tacos...they were good but lacked any real flavor while the rice & beans side was OK. read more

food is amazing, love the Fajitas and the beef tacos! had it for our end of the year lunch and it was on point!

We eat at Chuy's everytime we are in Murfreesboro and Baylie is the BEST waitress we've ever had! Actually better than any waitress we've encountered at any restaurant out there! She always goes above and beyond and is so kind! We will definetly be back! read more

My first impression about 11 years ago was just "meh". However, I gave it another try. It certainly has some items that are very good and what is would say are exclusive to Chuy's. Anything with Creamy Jalapeño is going to be great--I could drink that stuff. I usually order a large order to go. Recently, I tried the taco salad--Very fresh and filling. Probably one of my favorite menu items so far. The oven roasted chicken truly gives it a better flavor than basic chicken or even grilled chicken which I what most other restaurants have. They also have great salsa which I also get an order to go. read more

Chuy's - Taco Salad - Mexican Near Me - Murfreesboro, Tennessee

This Chuys was great until the last couple years. Not sure what exactly changed, but I assume they got another chef or something. The food had gotten way too spicy. Pers I love the heat, but my wife and kids don't. other Chuys in middle Tennessee cook the food a little less spicy, but the one in Murfreesboro seems like it's trying to prove something it seems. Unfortunately my family never wants to go with me anymore. Perhaps they should consider taming it a little before they lose a lot of families wanting to eat good Tex-mex. You can always add heat as an individual with sauces, but you can't reduce the heat for people (especially children) who can't handle the spice level. I hope they figure it out, because I'm tired of having to drive to Franklin,TN Chuy's just to get my family to go with me. The one in Franklin still has a decent heat level, but it's not overpowering. read more

The food was good but I can't say much else . The severs looked like they were out in the field and the place is far from clean.

We popped in for a Sunday morning brunch. Go early or later in the afternoon. Bc people were lined up like it was Black Friday. A lot of the favorites are gone, but these Flautas were yummy. I might nix the red sauce next time. Light crisp and packed with flavor. Mojitos was excellent good mix of mint and strawberry. read more

Service was awful. Took an hour to be seated when they told us 10 mins. No apologies or sorry from the staff. Placed order and it took another 37 mins for the food to come out. We will never be back here again. Chuy's has gone down since the new ownership. read more

I come here regularly and it never fails. Dipping sauce and salsa always deliver! Humble and hard working staff. Enchiladas are delicious as well as the fajitas and drinks ! It can get crowded but you can a join the waiting list online or wait for your text! read more

Chuy's - Mexican Near Me - Murfreesboro, Tennessee

Okay, let me start with the fact that it's been like 5 or more years since I've eaten at Chuy's. We went yesterday afternoon for lunch hungry and ready to eat. As we walked in, I was quite nervous about the wait length being that it was quite packed in there. But to my surprise we were seated in a nice booth in the corner immediately. Then our server, Leah, greeted us almost as soon as we sat down, ready to take our drink order. I was quite impressed. Our server was extremely nice, calm, and ready to answer any questions we may have had. I ordered the Big As Yo' Face Burrito with Fajita Beef covered in queso. I asked for beans on the side and for the Fajita veggies in my burrito. She kindly told that was definitely doable. My parents order the crispy tacos and the beef Fajitas. While we waited for our food we indulged in the greatest tortilla chips known to mankind. Light. Crispy. Thin. A tad greasy. Just begging you to over do it. Man. They were amazing. Then the salsa being made from actual fresh ingredients and not a can was just another level of delight. Only complaint, if I had to give one, was that it could've used a little more salt. Other than that, BEST SALSA YOU CAN ORDER OUT! Freshness, taste, heat, best around. The Creamy Jalapeño Dip is bomb. It's my Dad's favorite. He said he could just put the dish to his head and drink it by itself. Then we asked if we could taste the BoomBoom Sauce. I literally could've licked the dish out in the restaurant not caring who saw. It was that good and it just got better with each taste too. Literally gonna ask if they can do like a half and half situation (half queso and half boom boom). Then the food came after we made it through 3 batches of fresh, well-salted, delicious goodness. Thank God too cause I could've eaten another 5 batches of those chips. They're literally... I can't even... So, the burrito. How do you describe this level of deliciousness? It was like taking a bite of Heaven.... Everything was on point. The queso (seasoned, salted, perfect). The tortilla (soft, not too overwhelming). The beef (tender, well-seasoned, and not overcooked). With the veggies (like adding whip cream to the top of a shake or cake). Seriously it was so big, plus the amount of chips I ate, I took the rest home and ate it cold. And it was still amazing. I may have to make it a point to come back to Chuy's once a week, every week... I don't order tacos out, unless it's street tacos because usually it's sketchy ground meat, warm lettuce and tomatoes, but their tacos are definitely the best tacos I've had out. The taco shell was unique, and the meat was actually seasoned. Only complant is it needed sauce, like I should've ordered a side of boom boom or queso or something (that could just be the Caribbean in me always wanting gravy). The fajitas came out sizzling, just the way we like it. Not over cooked. Not under cooked. Pretty close to perfect. The well-seasoned meat was accompanied by a healthy serving of lettuce, tomatoes, sour cream, cheese, and guacamole. Only complaint, the three tortillas that came with this meal were a little hard on the sides which to me meant that they weren't as fresh. Nevertheless, the fajitas were quite delicious. I just wanna shout out to our server one more time who was amazing trying her best to accommodate us. My love for Chuy's has been reignited and I need to go back again.... soon... tomorrow...? read more

We usually order take out here because we like the food but the service inside tends to disappoint. We ordered our meal and picked it up. They used to give you for two people (two meals) a salsa each. I was informed upon receiving one of each that they will charge you $2.50 per container for extra even though if you dine-in you can have all you want. I could understand charging if we were asking for like four or five but one per person is not extravagant. It's sad to see them being so cheap and not taking care of customers. I think paying $20 per person for a meal with tip you can give me an extra to-go ramekin. We know you buy them in bulk and they don't cost the company $2.50 each. read more

Reliable service, Delicious food, and Eclectic decor. This restaurant is one of my murfreesboro favorites. The thin chips and queso dip are both addictive (but you have to pay extra for the queso). The grilled chicken had a great flavor and tortillas were thick, warm, and coated with flour. The prices are a little high, but the quality and portions are great. The restaurant is brightly colored and filled with unique art, pictures, and lights-- an atmosphere perfect for the whole family. The service is always great, and overall it's a reliable choice in town for a great lunch or dinner. read more

Chuy's - Exterior - Mexican Near Me - Murfreesboro, Tennessee

My wife and I have been coming to this location for years. Tonight was the final straw. We will try it again next year maybe. Chips were stale. Tortillas were hard for the shrimp tacos. (Please bring back the person who made them fresh. Fajitas were way better back then). Beans were watered down it seemed. TexasTini glasses were dirty the last several times. The last time we ordered TexasTinis they were basically without alcohol but tonight was better. We know because we have been here more than any place else and it used to be consistent. Chuy's we love you but the level of execution and consistency is really lacking lately at this location. The service was fine. Kitchen and general cleanliness are just not what they used to be or acceptable. When we're leaving the back door was cracked open because it's doesn't look like it would even shut, free for all rodents and bugs to come in. Tonight we broke up with Chuy's Murfreesboro :( read more

The enchiladas were so dry and unseasoned, safe to say i wouldn't be back, maybe it was just my experience (twice)

I have been going to this chuys for 16 years since they opened.... have never had a problem with the service and the cleanliness of the restaurant, bathrooms and patio have been impeccable until they hired Wes as a GM whoever made this decision it will ruin this restaurant! He has no social/managerial integrity and needs to go! read more

Update I did a corporate complaint as well and once I did that I got a response really quickly probably within a few days from the manager Brad from the chuy location and he apologized and he told me to give chuy another chance and I did he sent me a coupon for Two to eat free and the food was excellent. I had no cheese on my meal and I can say my Views have changed and I will definitely be back to this location. Thank you Brad for rectify the situation and resolving it I will be back. Again thank you Brad for restoring my confidence in chugs. Brad deserves a raise for sure. Murfreesboro Chuy location. read more

I have a love/hate relationship with Chuy's. I've never been a fan of the place because I've never found anything on the menu that I've genuinely enjoyed. Today, I came for lunch with co-workers and I enjoyed the grilled Baja shrimp tacos. The rice was okay and the tortilla chips are thin and salty which I actually liked. The shrimp tacos were good and our server was fantastic. I only come here about once every year or two when someone else really wants to come but I've never chosen to eat here because of past experiences with "okay" food. The dip that they bring out with their chips is AMAZING, though. read more

Prior to my visit this week I probably haven't been to a Chuy's in 5 or 6 years but not much has changed. Their menu, decor and service were largely the same as I remember but overall that's a pretty good thing because I've always had good experiences there. I had one of the gigantic burritos, sans meat, just went with bean and cheeses smothered in ranchero sauce. It came out hot tasted fresh and hit all the right notes. Others in our party enjoyed some crunchy tacos, and the boom boom chicken enchiladas. Personally I think the boom boom chicken enchiladas stole the show but everyone was happy. Overall a pretty solid option when you are in the mood for good, fresh Tex-Mex read more

I was in the area on business and thought it would be good to visit Chuy's. I was very wrong. I waited five minutes at the front for a host/hostess to show up to acknowledge me. The place wasn't busy so I assumed it would improve once I made it to my table. Another long wait for someone to show up and just to tell me she wasn't my server but she took my drink order. Ten plus minutes in the restaurant before the first server came by. My actual server showed shortly after and took my order. I love Chuy's and the other ones I've visited are usually customer centric, not but in the Boro. read more

I have to say that Chuy's is pretty much the same experience no matter which location you go to. I wouldn't call Chuy's Mexican food, but instead TexMex or Americanized Mexican food. I do like their cheese dip, but think it's way over priced for what you get. And the fajitas are ok. I know that there are a number of decent items on the menu, but honestly if I'm wanting Hispanic fare, I'd rather go to a more traditional Mexican restaurant or even a curbside torta cart or Mexican market. I don't mean to sound like I'm putting Chuy's down, but it kinda reminds me of a Chili's restaurant - kinda close, but no cigar or gringo (white people) Mexican food...lol...just my personal opinion read more

Food was terrible. Would never go back. Service was ok and wait time wasn't bad. Restaurant was clean but didn't care for the decor.

Another hit! Great wait staff and great food! What more would you ask for! Our waiter was spot on! Prompt, polite and timely! We sat down and he promptly was there for the first round of order requests. And as quickly as we shared our drink requests back he was with drinks and Chips-Salsa! Bam! Awesome start!! Gave us time to find our meals and he was back to take the orders! He wasn't overbearing and obnoxious! Almost like he was stalking us! In a good way! But this time I didn't care!! Orders taken and when the food arrived one of the meals was not delivered accurately. Extra onions, NO peppers was the request. It came with peppers and no extra onions! But!!! Almost as soon as the plate hit the table he says, the kitchen got that plate wrong! He was hugely apologetic and wanted to make it right! We express the desire for extra onions. He was the first waiter I can remember who caught the error before we did. Might have been nice if caught in the kitchen, but I'm not knocking it! I made sure our waiter knew how appreciative I was for his attentiveness! Nice job!! Thank you!! The food, all was great! This review was more about the great staff than food. The food was wonderful! All 4 orders were great! We'll be back!! read more

I have all look ways been a fan of Chuy's- consistent, fresh and great service. It has been my neighborhood go to spot for years, but this location has taken a nose dive in service and hospitality. We went in at 4:30 pm today- not a lunch or dinner rush, and the hostess directed us to open seating at the bar and then none of the 3 servers standing in the drink well or the bartender counting inventory greeted us. We sat there for 3-4 minutes at the bar- which had no one else at it- when the bartender finally decided to step down off her ladder from inventory and say "Someone will be with you in a minute", and then proceeded to climb back up the ladder to count more inventory. Nope. Easy enough to head down the street to Toots or go to an authentic Mexican joint. read more
