    Ordered food to go on our way out of Boulder City. Service was fine, wouldn't say friendly but quick and easy ordering. Restaurant itself needs a little revamping or a good clean on the inside. My two meals took about 15 mins to be finished. Drink machine seemed to be lacking CO2 as both of our sodas were flat. We didn't get to eat our food until about 45 mins later until we got home in Vegas. The tenders were a great size and seasoned nicely. My husband got the tenders with a garlic parm rub and enjoyed it. I tried Jamaican jerk sauced wings. The sauce itself was veryyyy heavy on the clove flavor and it was unfortunately too much for me. Just plain next time for me. The wings itself were huge and crispy even with the sauce! Fries were even crispy still after 45 mins. Overall, great spot for tenders and fries for sure!

    Pay no attention to the prices on the pictures of the menu. They are almost double that now. Only one person working, so could take a long time.

    Dog friendly

    The lady behind the counter was super friendly, patient and honest even though she was head cook, cashier and dish washer. Got a chicken sandwich combo and burger. Can't wait to see the meal. The decor was nice n 70's.

    Food was amazing! Chicken was really good. I wish the ranch was thicker. I'd definitely come back for the food. It was a little dirty and I think if they cleaned it up it would be better. Also to the blonde lady behind the counter you can't be ugly and rude. To the owners that employee may be the reason for lack of customers.

    Cashier was less than enthusiastic, ear pods in and seemed really tired. He mumbled and lacked any articulation The website link was bad and compromised. Waited a long time for nothing spectacular. I should have gone to Jack in the box.

    Stumbled across this and had to try it. Tried the habanero honey wings sauce with 6 wings, fries, and a drink. PLENTY of food for one, the fries are delish- perfectly salted, seasoned and served HOT. Great service and informative staff with service. The ambiance is laid back, trendy. They have outdoor seating and indoor seating.

    Elizabeth and Donna were who served us, and my gosh they made this expierence over the top!!!! It was just my little fam, with our two small children. They played kids music over the speakers!!! They were so kind and accommodating. Food was also WOW!!!! Tons of sauce to choose from and they actually SERVE CHICKEN with a little breading instead of the other way around like some places. Thick juicy tenders!!! We will definitely be back. Fries were also DELICIOUS!

    Omg!!! We were leaving the Hoover dam and wanted to find a place to eat before we headed back to the strip. This place hit the shot. The outside is not much to much to look at, but the lady taking our order was very nice and helpful in determining the best options for our money. We ordered the 6 piece combo with the dam hot sauce on the side. I didn't know what to expect, but I was pleasantly surprised. I'm usually do not like shoe string fries, but these were great. They seemed to be breaded, but I'm not sure. All of the food was fresh and hot. I will definitely try this place again on the strip.

    I eat at a lot of McDonald's. Especially when I'm road-tripping, or in a hurry. I've been to…read morehundreds of them and this Boulder City NV restaurant is arguably one of the nicest I've seen. I am surprised by how negative the majority of the reviews are, as that has not been my experience. I've eaten here a total of 7 times as of this writing. 2 of those 7 experiences weren't great. But they weren't exactly one star horrible either. My drive-thru experiences have absolutely been solid five stars every time. Friendly and fast. My dining room meals are more of a mixed bag. Sometimes the restrooms are not clean, sometimes there's an unhoused person wandering around. But my biggest problem was cold French fries. I do wish all McDonalds would go back to cashiers service and get rid of their complicated and germ-ridden touchscreen kiosks. I think the biggest problem McDonald's restaurants have these days is instead of reversing the cuts to performance and quality that have lead to a diminished dine-in experience, they've chose to isolate their employees from it entirely. Leaving guests to feel like we are fending for ourselves. That's a general complaint I have with all McDonald's. At least in Boulder City it's usually peaceful, clean and welcoming. Other than my cold fries the food is always good and my orders have been correct.

    This McDonald's has a lot of bad reviews, but my experience was great!…read more We stopped here for a quick breakfast and decided to eat inside. They did have 2 drive thru lanes available and a small play place area. A lot of McDonald's are moving towards self order kiosks and away from the order taker at the counter. This one was no different. We placed our order on the kiosk and then our food was delivered to our table. The person who brought our food was nice. We ordered a steak egg and bagel meal, one breakfast burrito and one egg McMuffin. Prices have definitely increased and it was $20 altogether. But the food came out hot and fresh. I enjoyed everything I ate. The lobby was clean and nice. And the bathrooms were also clean. I would stop here again if I was in the area.

    This review is based on three separate visits and each visit's order was for two people (i.e. two…read moremeals). Wait Time: Between all three visits, there was an average wait time of 20-30 minutes. When we arrived to the window to pay on our first visit, we were told to take a lap around the drive-thru and that our order would be ready upon our return. It turned out we arrived to the window and waited about 20 minutes before we received our order. Order: With the wait time in mind, please remember that Rome wasn't built in a day--so don't expect a quality meal to be ready within five minutes. With that being said, we ordered the 1). double cheeseburger with fries, 2). crispy chicken sandwich with fries, 3). fish and chips, 4). chicken tenders, 5). a strawberry shake, and 6). a chocolate shake between our three visits. The quality across all three visits was consistent and detailed here: 1). The Double Cheeseburger was cooked to our doneness preference. The bun was toasted with light butter and a slight crunch to the bite. The patties were juicy and well-seasoned. The cheese was evenly melted on the patties. The condiments did not overpower the patties' flavor. The toppings were the standard lettuce, tomato, and onions--which worked harmoniously with the rest of the burger, making for one of the best burgers I have ever had. Upon first glance, it meets my expectations of what a burger should be. 2). Much like the Double Cheeseburger, the Crispy Chicken Sandwich was of excellent quality. All of its components worked collectively to deliver in flavor and texture, including the toasted bun with the slight crunch. It was a perfect Crispy Chicken Sandwich. 3). The Fries were flavorful (fry seasoning, salt), crinkle cut, and evenly fried throughout (i.e. you did not have some hard pieces and some soggy pieces). We recommend a side of ranch for dipping. 4). The Fish and Chips were your standard Fish and Chips--and I mean that in the best way. They were fried until the classic golden and served with tartar sauce. Again, everything you would expect out of Fish and Chips. 5). While the Chicken Tenders were good, they were not outstanding. We would not order them again due to the other superior items on the menu. 6). The Strawberry Shake was flavored with fresh strawberries and like the Chicken Tenders, it was not outstanding. The Chocolate Shake was a classic Chocolate Shake. If you are craving a shake, then go for it. Otherwise, there isn't anything that would separate these shakes from another good quality shake. Both shakes leaned toward a thicker consistency. Note: The medium sized shakes are huge. If we ever get one again in the future, we will order a small instead. Service: We felt welcomed during each visit and did not feel rushed at the intercom (all three of our visits were through the drive-thru). Prior to visiting, we were unsure of what to expect with the mixed reviews and ultimately decided that we would just find out for ourselves. We are so grateful that we made the choice to try Chilly Jilly'z, because it is now one of our favorite spots in Southern Nevada. We definitely recommend that you give it a try!

We came today (not knowing if the change) and had to sit outside in over 100 degrees. It looks like they have some sort of outdoor AC setup , but it was not running. The chairs and tables as a result are scalding hot. This makes chilly jilly unvisitable unless you're taking it to go, or it's winter/fall. Which is a shame, because their food and treats are so good

My husband and I were early for an appointment so I said please can we get a hot dog!? As we pulled up just before 11, Denise the owner was still setting up. We asked if it was a drive thru or if we park and walk up - she said we could do whatever gets us to the window. While she was setting up and taking our order she chatted with us and gave us some history. She told us she also baked cakes and brownies. We ordered 2 Chicago dogs and a frozen lemonade- which she said is from Rhode Island. Our hot dogs came with our name wrote ontop with mustard. Denise thanked us for stopping by and said as her first customer of the day, she gave us a free mini cake and brownie. She was awesome and I am glad to read below that Chilly Jillys is also in her family. We will definitely be back!
