Would rate 4.5 stars! Great Texmex. Can't get enough jalapeño cream sauce and chicka chicka boom boom spicy enchiladas is my favorite dish. My boyfriend likes the Elvis Presley fried chicken. Lots of flavors of margaritas here!! They look small but are a lot of ounces and you can order a side shot of tequila. Why not!! After work happy hours have free queso and appetizer bar. Friendly staff. Clean restaurant. It's a chain but it's consistently good. read more

Staff was super nice and helpful with family member in wheelchair. The host staff was amazing, the wait staff was great.

Outstanding food, really fine service, overall one of the finest family Mexican restaurants in Texas. Even though extremely busy most of the time, the service is such that you don't have to wait till dinner for your lunch to arrive. A definite 5 star! read more

Always so good!! We order curbside and eat at home most of the time and wow, it never disappoints! We have big orders (4-5kids meals, 2 adult entrees) and there has never been issues with my order. Always hot and fresh chips, utensils to eat with and the perfect amount of salsas. Love Chuy's!!! read more

I've never had a bad experience at Chuys! The food is always amazing and the service has never failed me. I love this place!

My wife and I finally got around to trying Chuy's tonight. It was as good as Tex-Mex gets. The food was excellent and the service was fantastic. Our waiter, James K, was attentive, polite, and quick. My wife had the Boom Boom Enchilada dinner, and it was great. I had the beef enchilada and taco dinner. Also excellent. We have always gone to Posados before, but there service has really declined. Chuy's might just by our go to Mexican restaurant from now on. read more

I go out to eat one meal everyday and I've had all the chain Mexican foods in town. I hadn't gone to Chuy's in over nine years because the last time I went, (Lubbock) it was like most place's, just something covered in a lot of cheese. Well, the day after Thanksgiving's I decided to give this eatery another chance and I was very happy I did. I ordered the Elvis Presley combination and it was really, really good. The salsa was the best I've had in a long while, fresh tomatoes chopped fine with some heat blended in, however like a few places in town the chips were to thin for the salsa and the first few chips broke upon entry to the bowl. So I had to put the salsa on by using my fork. I always suggest a Mexican eatery should always fresh make the chips to order, great first impression. To keep this short, the entire meal was great and I look forward to my return trip. read more

Never disappointed! I have eaten at multiple Chuy's locations around the DFW area and the one in Tyler is just as good. It was a first time visit for my wife and now she's hooked! Great service, very attentive, and amazing food. We will be back! read more

Very Americanized TexMex. Food is alright and priced moderately. The few things I've had reminded me of Chili's or Applebee's quality food. Chips are good! read more

Love the food here. Good options for vegetarians. BoomBoom sauce is amazing. Great environment and customer service.

Katelyn was an excellent server! Timely, polite, and attentive. We didn't have to ask for refills of drinks or chips and our food came out hot and on time. Thanks for being awesome! Also, Chuy's, you never disappoint! DELISH! Thank you! read more

Ok so once again..... I have loved this place in the past. I arrive today and there is a wait to be seated. I am ok with waiting but these jackasses have removed the seating to wait so I had to salt and the full wait time all the while holding my 40lb kid. We were seated and we placed our order only to find out we couldn't order what we wanted because it was Togo only. This was not listed in their EXTREMELY limited menu. With only 5ish items to choose from I had to settle for a less than desired item. The experience today has left me with a less than likely return status. I highly recommend a retraining in service and customer treatment. read more

I always have good things to say about chuys. I frequented chuys when I used to live in Houston quite a bit. The free nacho cart was a hit for a broke college student. Chuys is the perfect example of tex-mex so don't get your hopes up for authentic Mexican food. The burritos are your best bet with any type of sauce. Also, save room for the best sopapilla you will eat. The service was good, just your average nothing to brag about. The ambience is cool, some may feel uncomfortable in it because of the way it's decorated. This isn't one of those cozy spots. All in all, chuys is your go to for cheap Tex Mex read more

Chuy's I love you! The best Tex-Mex I've had from SC coast to Texas. I always look Chuy's up when I travel, and Tyler exceeds the rest. Everyone is so cordial read more

Great spot to grab lunch or dinner with family or friends. Nice to have the car side to go option as well. The classic Tex-Mex is my favorite. The creamy jalapeño is dangerously addicting. My heart smiles when I drive by and see how packed you guys stay. A little slice of heaven. read more

Love this place. Good food, great appetizer bar from 4 to 7 pm. Yummy! Great wait staff. Margarita are a bit mild. We got a variety of items. After appetizer bar, too full to eat...barny! read more

One of favorite Mexican food places. Too bad it's not closer to my work. If you have never been here ask for the Christmas tree sauce sampler so you can taste all of them before ordering!! read more

Fabulous chain that needs to invade the east coast. The prices are right, the food is fresh and the salsa is nice and spicy. We ordered fish taco meals and veggie enchiladas. The chips are so light and crispy. Our service at this location was spot on. We met friends here for lunch and were kind of in a hurry. The server was a fun gal with a lot of personality. She stayed on beverage refills, chip refills and pre-bussing (so important but generally overlooked) without us asking. Very enjoyable experience. read more

I'm hoping this Chuy's gets better with time. When I was a student at Rice in Houston, Chuy's was one of my favorite places to eat. The Creamy J is so awesome. Tyler's Chuy's is OK, I wouldn't go so far to say it's excellent. Perhaps with some time the food will become better. When I visited this location the service was pretty good though, very attentive and courteous staff. Food comes out pretty quick, a lot quicker than most other Tex-Mex restaurants, but not as fast as other Chuy's. I would have rated at least 4 stars if they didn't charge a "packaging fee." I have actually complained about this to their corporate office and apparently it's a standard practice and has been for years. I have only gotten to go once, every other time was dine-in. If you dine-in and take your leftovers, no fee is assessed. If you place an order for pick up, a packaging fee is applied for a PERCENTAGE of the cost of the food. That is not a fee, that is a tax. A fee is a flat amount (think registration fees), a tax is a percentage of value based on a service or item. Apparently you have to pay them 30 cents to put your food in a container if you don't do it yourself. read more

I've only been to a Chuy's once in the last few years and was NOT impressed. However, while visiting my bestie, this is where she wanted to go, so I reluctantly obliged. She knew all the best stuff to order, and I have to say, our meal was GREAT! She ordered this creamy salsa (I HATE spicy as well as anything with the word "creamy" in it) but it was SO GOOD! That reminds me that I need to Pinterest search the recipe...anywho! I was boring and got tacos al carbon and they were fine. She got this chicken thing that was breaded in lays potato chips and covered in "boom boom" sauce. OH MY GAWD, it was delish. So good, in fact, that I considered hitting up the Chuy's in Plano today when I got home to order that for myself! The service was good at this location; we sat on the patio, but ended up moving tables because the lady at the table next to us was STARING blankly at us, and shooting us disapproving glares as if it's not normal to order drinks at 11 am. Now that I know what to order, I think I'll be visiting Chuy's locations way more often! read more

One of my go-to restaurants when I'm in Tyler! Staff is always courteous and food is always excellent! I love their chicka-chicka boom boom enchiladas! Not to mention their yummy tortillas soup! read more

We have a Chuy's date night every Friday night. Some waiters are great, some are not. We know the ones to avoid. But we love Chuy's and it's our fav restaurant in town. The last two Fridays we've had a server named Miriam and she is awesome!!! She's so sweet and pleasant and super attentive. We never got low on chips, drinks or creamy which is a feat on a busy Friday night. read more

Does anyone really need a review of Chuy's? I mean...its Chuy's. They all are about the same once you're outside of Austin. The kids could live off of the creamy jalapeño ranch sauce. Try that with your chips and salsa. But for real l, what else is there to tell?...prices average, food quality average to above average. Service is all based on the volume. Oh ya, they don't have draft beers. Maybe that's what you should know. Meh rating for a meh Mexican food chain. read more

Since I'm not from the area, nor familiar with it, my co-workers decided on Chuy's for lunch. The decor was very festive and the staff was very attentive and friendly. I ordered panchos, which is like having nachos and fajitas mixed together... It was a very flavorful dish, however if I ever go again I would leave off the refried, they were a little thick, but all in all, it was a good lunch.. read more

Best Tex-Mex restaurant chain ever! I love the Tyler location. Will be visiting this place regularly once I make the move to Tyler in October. Request Joe to be your server. He is awesome and gives the best service as well as recommendations! Thank you, Chuy's of Tyler for an excellent experience! read more

So good! And I love the off-menu Elvis with the Boom Boom sauce. This location is pretty empty when they open at 11 but it gets really busy for lunch. read more

Still has very limited menu. No combination plates. Chili rellenos. Charro beans etc. There are plenty other mexican restaurants that offer a full menu. You have lost a very loyal customer. read more

Awesome at Chuy's in Tyler, tonight. Hostess was conscientious to our personal requests and needs. Daniel, our server was top notch and Hannah mixed my margarita, my way. Didn't meet the kitchen staff this evening...but they too answered our specific needs, request. Eating anything sans teeth, (post oral surgery), is difficult. Especially a flour tortilla...my seasoned beef enchiladas with the perfect amount of tomatillo sauce easily, and quickly devoured. My husband's chicken chimichanga was to his liking...and when I mean to his liking, I mean that's what he orders at every restaurant that advertises Mexican food, or Mexican cuisine. And trust me, we have been to a lot of them in this county, and two others nearby. My son is the strong silent type, he's nonverbal and lives this life with the experience of severe autism. You wouldn't necessarily notice it just by first glance. And you wouldn't notice that the earplugs were to handle the dozens of sounds that most people tune out...but even through all of the chatter, I could still enjoy some classic music, my son could soak in the visual sights, and we all had something more than drive thru food. We come to Tyler quite often for my son, and while here we more than likely are in need of sustenance...this night it was Chuy's in Tyler, (admittedly we own currently a dozen or so Chuy's shirts)...my first Chuy's experience was in Dallas, on Knox St., if memory serves. The experience at this Chuy's tonight, was as great as that one was 25+ years ago....even if I didn't have the blue corn chicken enchiladas. Thank you Chuy's, and thank you for having such exceptional people working for you in Tyler, tonight. We will be back. read more

Service wasn't great, even though the restaurant wasn't half full. My order was wrong, and they brought all the veggies for the fajitas for one member of our party and probably 10 minutes later brought the chicken. No apology or explanation for that. Food was average. Have had bad experiences both times I have eaten here. Don't know if I'll be back a third. read more

Chicken enchiladas with avocado sauce was a tad bit spicy. House margarita was basic. Ask for Jalepeno ranch dip for chips....totally addictive. Enchilada deluxe and Boom Boom seemed better per my friends responses. Finally, the tres leches was very tasty and not mushy...you can drench the cake at your whim. read more

Just opened, so still a wait (20 minutes) at 2:30 on Memorial Day Monday. You can wait in the bar and get chips/salsa and drinks started though. Ordered Chuy's Special- good, chicken and tortillas were excellent, but the green tomatillo sauce was a little tame. Next time I'll order a spicier sauce. Portions were large and prices are comparable to others. As always drinks (tea, soda, etc.) are overpriced. Service was good. read more

Awesome! Best TexMex with no MSG in anything because it's fresh unlike so many other places in East Texas. Been to Tyler and Longview where the Mom & Pops are putting monosodium glutimate even into the rice! read more

Really great food and service today. Glad to see masks required. However, noted 3 groups seated without masks. When we went to leave 6 people in lobby area, 2 with masks. But no social distancing. Walked outside with another group of six standing and sitting-no masks, no social distancing. Disappointing read more

Great place to have a big group tethering . We can for baseball team and parents evening out. They were supper accommodation, foot was great and service was super. Thank you John and Danielle, our waiters, who did an amazing job taking care of everybody for couple of hours. read more

No military discount ***** Could have been 5 star for its class but since there was no discount available to military then they get a 4. Great food, quick waitressing by the staff on drink refills. Good family environment, but weird music selection playing at what I thought was a Mexican style restaurant. They had 3doors down to black eye peas. Food prices were in good comparison to the amount of food provided. read more

Went here a couple of times now, I have been ordering chicken enchiladas for about seven months now with creamy Jalapeño. It's delicious. Ive never had a problem with Waitresses, my order is always on the the at a timely manner! The times I've gone to eat with usually be in the afternoons, so at times it's fairly busy. read more

Great for a birthday dinner with the family. It was a loud atmosphere. The chips came with a bowl of salsa (which was pretty spicy!) & another bowl with some sauce that was similar in taste & texture to ranch dressing (a nice cool-off after the salsa!). We also ordered queso, which was great (we should've ordered another bowl of it for our table!). I had the veggie combo plate (they designate meatless items on the menu), which had a veggie enchilada & a veggie quesadilla. The beans & rice that came with the plate were also excellent (beans not too pasty & rice not too dry). I would love to go back sometime when I'm back in Tyler! read more

Great food and great gluten free options! (Unsure on celiacs). I love their enchiladas with queso on top and I love that their chips are gluten free. Everyone has always been incredibly nice and super helpful! Great place! read more
