    45 minutes. No 1:30 still counting. Would like to try it. Can't blame them for not enough other trucks. Food was good.

    Fantastic. We got tacos and the cheesesteak, which were delicious. The perfect amount of spice. Highly recommend!

    Hmm, for the reviews Mi Calvillo had I was expecting way more flavor profiles. However the food was…read morevery bland. The chips were not fresh and there was no spice at all in the salsa.

Where I am from you can get a shredded beef burrito anywhere but they are hard to find here. We walked in and I was surprised to see that you order at the counter and it seems most of their business is takeout. They did allow us to sit at a table to order though. The waiter did not bring us anything. No chips. No salsa. No napkins. No silverware. I asked if they have salsa and they then brought out chips and salsa. I asked for silverware and napkins after our food arrived and they then brought out those things. We ordered bean dip and they brought out what I would describe as a bowl of water. Both the beans and the cheese were so runny that it was impossible to get either beans or cheese to stay on the chip long enough to deliver to your mouth. Total fail. How can bean dip be messed up? I was still excited for my shredded beef burrito to come. That excitement and any hopes I had for this place went way out the window when the man came back and plopped a shredded chicken burrito down in front of me. Definitely not what I ordered! I literally went there because they have shredded beef burritos, as least their menu says they do. I ate some of the shredded chicken burrito that I did not order and simply quietly boxed up the rest feeling too defeated to eat or complain. Speaking of the menu, they charged significantly more for every single item than the price that was listed on the menu. Once again I did not complain. I was so ready to leave. The horrible bean dip, three tacos for my husband, and a burrito that I did not order cost us $60. Never again.

    Growing up in Texas, Chuy's was a staple, so finding one in Cary after a long workday felt like…read morerunning into an old friend. The original Chuy's started in Austin, and after all these years, the flavors are still exactly how I remember them. I had planned to eat at H Mart but arrived too late after checking into my hotel. A summer thunderstorm rolled through, and by the time I pulled into Chuy's, the skies cleared. It was the perfect ending to a long day. The complimentary chips, fresh salsa, and famous creamy jalapeño dip are reason enough to stop by. That dip is every bit as addictive today as it was decades ago. I ordered the Comida Deluxe--a massive plate with cheese enchiladas, crispy chicken flautas, a crispy beef taco, fresh guacamole, queso-covered tostadas, rice, and refried beans. I paired it with an ice-cold Coke, plus extra lime wedges and white onions, because that's how Tex-Mex should be enjoyed. Every bite hit the spot. The portions were enormous, the quality was excellent, and at around $16-18, it's one of the best values around. I knew I'd be taking leftovers home, and they were just as good the next day. I also grabbed a slice of tres leches cake to go. It was huge and worth every penny. It somehow tasted even better after sitting overnight as the three milks soaked deeper into the cake. Absolutely delicious. Our server was warm, attentive, and made packing up leftovers effortless by bringing extra creamy jalapeño dip, a sturdy bag for the chips, and plenty of to-go containers. Service like that makes a difference. You can pay traditionally with your server or by scanning a QR code. I tried the QR option but found it a little cumbersome, so I paid the old-fashioned way with my credit card. Chuy's has stayed true to what made it famous. The recipes are consistent, the portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the food is packed with nostalgia. Whether you're a fellow Texan or just craving outstanding Tex-Mex, this place continues to deliver. Life is too short to eat boring food.

If you don't know what you're looking for you may miss it. As we walked up and the hubs looked in the door, he questioned my choice. There is graffiti all over the walls and doesn't look like anything good would be there. We walked in to an open seating room and on the left, if you go out the door they gave a very cool outdoor roof area. You order and then go to your seat until its ready. Mike got steak burrito and I got a grilled chicken and cheese quesadillo. Both were jam packed with ingredients, fresh and delicious. The chicken was the best chicken ever in my quesadillo... the flavors were off the chart. The salsa was fresh at yummy. Definitely lived up to the best burritos ever!

The entrance was a little sketchy and there wasn't a lot of parking, though we were able to find some on the street. There is a small dining room and a cool outdoor patio too. I ordered the chicken deluxe burrito and it was delicious. I do wish that they added a little bit more cheese, because two dollars for extra cheese is a little much for me. Otherwise, the burrito was great and the guac was fresh.

The service is casual but courteous. Also good for kids - they have high chairs, a kids' menu, and a changing table in the ladies room (did not venture to check if there was also one in the men's).

I tried a pastor, carnita, and asada taco. All three were delicious, but the pastor especially hit. I've struggled finding good, flavorful pastor here and I'm SO happy to find a place that makes it well. They have a salad/salsa bar set up where you can get your own toppings. I actually really love that! My husband and I each got margs. His lime was good and got the hibiscus. I'll definitely order that one again! They were good and strong. My husband ordered the birria. The tacos themselves were great! Very flavorful. My only complaint is I wish the consume wasn't as watery as it was, but the flavor itself was still good! We also ordered chips for the table. They came out hot and freshly made. I'm already thinking about when I can come here next and try more menu items! 10/10 recommend.

    I have a lot of mixed emotions about this place. The food was very good! We all ordered different…read morefood, but we're all happy with it. The service was horrible! The place was almost empty and I see why. At first there were a total of 6 people at the bar. When we left it was just the three of us. The guy behind the bar had to be repeatedly called over for refills and orders of food. I don't know what the hell he was doing. We had to order drinks from another restaurant airees once. She was friendly and helpful. Someone that looked like a manager walked by a few times and looked at us, but never even as much as said hi or asked about our experience. The ambience is fine. Light music and a pretty facility. The restrooms needed some serious cleaning. That's always one of those things that separates good from great.

The service was fantastic considering we were at the bar and it was very busy! The margaritas were sweet but weak. For a $10 margarita, I would have hoped it would a bit stronger. I got the quesa birria tacos which were decent although it was missing the consome that typically accompanies birria. I thought the food was decent and average although overpriced for what you get. The restaurant is located within the Southpoint Plaza so it is a convenient location to grab a quick meal after a day out. Overall, I think this place has very average Tex-Mex food. I don't see myself coming back here for the food, but if I was in the area craving Mexican food, I wouldn't be opposed to coming here.
