★★★☆☆ 3.0 Stephen Person · Feb 2026

Slow service. Food did not come out together and had to return orders pasta tasted like a frozen dinner. Definitely overpriced for what you get. Temperature control was terrible and we were shivering during our stay with our coats on. Would not recommend.

★★★★★ 5.0 Full time explorer RV living (Living on the road!) · Aug 2025

This Chili’s truly stood out from every other location we’ve ever been to. From the moment we walked in, every single staff member went above and beyond to make sure guests felt welcome. It wasn’t just us—every table around us received the same warm, attentive service. Each employee greeted people with a genuine smile and carried such a positive attitude, which created an atmosphere that felt inviting and enjoyable. On top of the exceptional service, the food came out hot, fresh, and absolutely delicious—exactly what you hope for when dining out. It’s rare to see a restaurant where the entire team works together so seamlessly to make the experience memorable, and this location nailed it. By far, this has been the best Chili’s we’ve had the pleasure of dining at. A huge thank-you and much

★★★★★ 5.0 Duy Nguyen · Nov 2025

My little family felt like burgers that night for dinner. So we decided to go to Chili's. Take advantage of thier 3 for me deal at 10.99. My wife and I got burgers. While my oldest felt like pasta instead of a burger. Our waitress was really friendly and polite. We also got to sing a long and help a young boy celebrate his 10th or 11th birthday that evening as well.

★★★☆☆ 3.0 ronny hibdon · Feb 2026

Went tonight and the food was great. All was well until I realized that my drink wasn't frosting the cup up, it was the scum and dirt build up that made my cup look different from everyone else. Notice the clear handle. Thats what the cup should look like to. I pray i dont get sick

★☆☆☆☆ 1.0 Cara Willis · Mar 2026

Very disappointed! Appetizers came out quick. We didn’t get our entrees until almost an hour after. The ribs were ok but had a hair on them and minimal sauce. Some of our fries were well overdone and some underdone… the boneless wings seemed as if they sat under the warmer for so long the sauce soaked into the breading and the cups of ranch had a yellowish dried film on top. Mac and cheese was good but the portion was tiny. Way over priced for what we got! Service was great and not her fault. She did get us a discount which was much appreciated. Probably won’t be going back.
