Came here on 10/7 and I just want to say that whoever the cook was in the back that did my steak and asparagus.... You did an amazing job. The presentation of the dish and my food was cooked to perfection! You need to be a Chef! You got what it takes and I hope the management of this company see's this post! Thank you. Also this is my second time coming in 2 weeks and both times I had Jules the waitress! She does a great job with her customer service and is attentive onto of her professionalism! She deserves a management position! Thanks for a great time at Chili's.. read more

My sister and I come to Chili's Grill & Bar every now and then for margaritas and appetizers. We especially enjoy trying the new monthly margarita flavors they're always fun and something to look forward to. That said, the experience can be a bit inconsistent. Both the service and food tend to be hit or miss depending on who your server is and the day you go. Sometimes everything is great, other times it falls a little short. Overall, it's a decent casual spot if you're just looking for drinks and apps, but don't always expect a consistently great experience. read more

Hey hate children the waitresses are mean to children on purpose don't go here it should be shut down due to criminal activity. Didn't eat anything. Service was hostile and ambiance was disgusting. Food looked like crap on other tables two other families with children walked out. read more

Raven was such a great waitress! She was pleasant & took care of our table. I came here w/ my mom & nephew after a Paranormal Cirque 3 show in the Clinton Outlets. Food was delish but my plate needed a bigger portion. I ordered a 3 for $16.99. I ordered a coke,garden salad,& the cilantro- lime carne asada(seared steak topped w/ a drizzle of cilantro-pesto, minus the lime and pico de gallo. Served w/ flour tortillas, Mexican rice & black beans). My steak was medium well & not overcooked. My mom ordered 3 for $13.99. It was a classic margarita,potato soup,& an old-timer w/ cheese(basically a cheeseburger) w/ fries.My nephew also ordered a 3 for $13.99. He got a classic margarita,chips & salsa, & a big smasher burger( smashed burger w/ thousand island sauce,American cheese,diced red onions,pickles & lettuce) w/ fries. The Chiefs were playing the Cowboys on the tv screens. Ty Raven! read more

Today 6/23 we visited Chili's to celebrate the end of the school year, and it was a wonderful experience! Stephanie was amazing! She provided very fast service, was incredibly friendly, and made us feel welcome from the moment we arrived. She was attentive throughout our meal and helped make our celebration even more special. Thank you, Stephanie, for the excellent service! read more

honestly worst chilis restaurant to exist. First the hostess was rude and unfriendly. the server was nice and attentive but offered us chips to snack on without disclosing it cost money and we were surprised will it on the bill. when we asked to split the bill the manager was rude and they charged us extra for no reason. the wings were very low quality compared to other locations. the restaurant itself was unclean with sticky tables and seats and dirty bathrooms. over all poor quality food, rude and unhelpful management and will definitely not return or recommend. i hope they replace the staff and clean up a whole lot read more

Ordered take out that took forever. That would not have been a problem if my food tasted better. I ordered the double smash burger. The plan was to eat one burger now and save the other for later. My burger was dry and cooked too long. It was an absolute waste of money. I was very disappointed. It's not hard to cook a burger. You only have to show me once why you don't deserve my business. Do better Chilis. Find a new cook! read more

Five of us dined here a few days ago & we all enjoyed our food. The service was great & friendly.

Today I came in to restaurant at 2.45 pm and I asked with waitress for make sure I can ordered for lunch special menu. And she said "Yes" we checkout around 3.40 pm and very satisfied in service and food at here. All staff very friendly and pay attention with customers. read more

I've always been a fan of the Chili's menu and this spot never disappoints. It's always consistently good food with great service to follow both dining in and take out. The staff are good people who despite the busyness of the environment always manage to keep a positive attitude and check in consistently for refills and ensuring we are all good. As mentioned before the inside tends to get busy towards the evening after 5pm, but it's a spacious interior with both a large dining room section and a decent sized bar area. The only reason I can't list my review as a 5-star is because I tend to support small local businesses more so than big franchises BUT if you're going to have Chili's this spot in East Haven is fantastic! read more

My son took me to dinner for Mother's Day. We arrived around 5:40 PM and had to wait for a table. We were told 15-20 minute wait. It was probably 25 minutes but they were very busy. A lot of families were there. We already knew what we wanted to order: the Fajita dinner for two and an order of bottomless chips and salsa with two sodas. The chips and salsa arrived with the drinks pretty quickly. Our waitress was very polite. The fajitas for two you had a choice of four proteins with three choices of protein chicken steak and shrimp. We ordered double order of shrimp and both chicken and steak. It also came with four flour tortillas each a side of rice and beans topped with some pico de gallo also toppings of pico de gallo sour cream and shredded cheese for your tortillas. We ordered several refills of chips and salsa while waiting for our meal to arrive. I asked for the chips without added salt and it was no problem. We both made our first fajitas with the shrimp the shrimp was very tasty and not over seasoned. Then we tried the steak which I was skeptical about being tender. I was wrong. It was deliciously tender and seasoned well. The chicken was also well seasoned and tender. The sodas were also unlimited which was nice. Several servers stopped by asking how everything was and vet willing to bring another drink and napkins. You pay at the table on a small tablet which a server helped us to log in as I have their app and I was surprised to find after putting in my number I had a free chips and salsa! So nice. And the price was $39.99 for the dinner the bottomless chips were actually free but normally $7.29 so our total was around $49 and you can add a tip but my son actually likes giving the server cash. I would definitely recommend the dinner for two and will return read more

Awesome salads here thank you for the best service and staffs are so friendly restaurant is nice and clean too

First timings first, Chili's is definitely one of the better fast casual chain restaurants out there, which was made obvious by how busy it was this past Monday night when the restaurant was packed with people. The atmosphere is very chill and cozy but can be cramped at times when there's a lot of customers. The service was average, nothing spectacular or notable. Our server did look a bit overburdened at times which impacted wait times, but she was thorough in getting our order down. The food came out in an average amount of time, so it wasn't too bad. The food was OK for the most part, above average (7/10) but the prices were somewhat higher than I had remembered a few years ago. Granted, a lot of stuff has increased in price over the past few years, but I felt like the food was overpriced. read more

the food was awful. I went with my grandson and the restaurant looked dirty and the food was awful. I went to use the rest room and passed by the kitchen and i was disgusted about the nastiness in the kitchen. The floors were a mess and the staff are not professional at all. I will never go back read more

I cannot eat people are screaming. We got people cursing up here. They haven't asked if we're OK they haven't refilled my dip.

Stopped there on my way to tweed airport. Was looking forward to have a bowl of chilli only to be told they don't sell chilli. Would have been better off across the street at Wendy's. read more

Our server Elena was so nice and attentive even with a very large group. And the food and drinks came in a timely manner. Would come again for Elena read more

Mobile order, food was good, cooked and seasoned very well. The sauces were inconsistent with my order, only one was correct.

They got rid of happy hour on weekends which is location specific. Bad call. We won't go anymore. And I'm sure it's why it was so slow on a football Sunday. read more

Wonderful Service. Accommodated for me and a large group. The food was amazing and tasted fresh. All came out hot and fresh.

My husband and I love to take the kids to Chilis and the food is typically delicious and not too expensive. This location is the only one I have had issues with. Wrong order was brought out twice and our waiter was short and not very friendly. To be fair, it was a weekend and very busy so I hope it was just an off night. read more

By far, the worst Chili's experience I've ever had. The food, when it finally arrived, was hot and tasty which is the only reason I even give 2 stars. The service was cold and incredibly slow. We were not greeted until we had been seated for about 15 minutes. The whole place seemed to be in chaos -- wrong orders arriving to tables, not single smile on a single employee's face. I highly recommend a thorough look at how this place is being managed. Would not recommend. Drive 20 minutes and eat at the Milford location. read more

Me and my boyfriend came to chilis in New Haven and only ordered triple dippers. An appetizer that came 40 minutes later after already waiting to be seated for over 30 minutes. We get the food and my boyfriend says his is burnt almost hard and mine was pink and bleeding. It's unacceptable and my waitress only made an excuse as to why they were cooked different, being "they must've put them on at different times". Regardless all big mouth bites are cooked the same unless you order it specifically cooked. I'm disappointed especially since it is $37.55 for APPETIZERS! Do better. read more

Went to this chilis after an active afternoon at the beach with my 3 friends. Food was fine, no complaints, however, when it got to the payment, that's when things got out of control. I'll take the blame for messing up splitting the check by items, yet still for each time that I messed up, our server was not helpful and it took copious amounts of minutes to fix the check. After a while, I simply asked her to split the check for us since we noticed an additional charge of certain items and my free chips and salsa was indeed not free. With things allegedly all set, I went to pay and I saw the bill was much larger than expected so I assumed it was for the whole table. It was not. I was over charged around $24 and even when I asked for a refund, they only refunded $13. At this point, I was so sick and frustrated that I decided $11 wasn't even worth it. Personally, I'm a huge fan of chilis, but this ruined it for me :( read more

Love this place it's is amazing always on top of customers food is consistently delicious good place for my family especially birthdays

Ordered a Santa Fe Salad to-go today, but with no chicken. I would assume no chicken at least there would be a price decrease or if not perhaps some more lettuce! Wow, how dissappointing as the salad was so small I could actually see the bottom of the container and I have the picture to prove it. $16 + tax. I had to go to the store to buy more lettuce! Had a similar experience with fajitas so this will be the last time I go to this location. read more

My server was a very sweet person. She was fast and knowledgeable. But the margaritas really weren't my cup of tea. Very sweet. I ordered the triple dip with queso, guac and salsa. The queso was vey thick and chunky. The guac had a sour taste. I'm sure it would have been delicious had I arrived a day earlier. But it's an ok spot to sit and have a drink. read more

Haven't been to chilis in a long while. Kid wanted appetizers and suggested our local chilis. It was pretty busy when we arrived. Took a while for hostess to greet us, she was busting tables I think. She walked us to out table and all I could see was a filthy floor, definitely was not swept in a while. The wait staff was friendly and quick to ask us for our drink order. I was good and just ordered a soda, thought about getting their tropical sunrise margarita- it is very good. We ordered the skillet queso, triple dipper and Texas cheese fries, food was good. Hit the spot for a quick snack. Our server was very attentive and readily available for refills and to ensure we were enjoying our food. read more

My friends and I walked in and waited for someone to noticed, got there before the kitchen closed but didn't get notified til after so we weren't able to be sat. Not fair that we were there, doors open, all to not get noticed and not sat. read more

I don't do chain restaurants. Ever. Ever. But it was $3.13 for margaritas on March 13th and it was my friend's birthday so he wanted to go. To say it was packed would be an understand. Versus waiting for a booth, we grabbed two seats at the bar. Our bartender, who has been there since they opened has to be by far one of the nicest, kind & fun people I've ever met. I was even more shocked when he said he was a cop for many years. Wish they were all like him. I digress but I don't drink hard liquor so I just had a glass of white wine & guac with chips. The guac was absolutely disgusting that one bite was more than enough for me. Chain food is all frozen food warmed up so it's not much to write home about but the bartender is what made the experience worthwhile!! read more

I ordered the six piece combo. This is what I received chicken fingers and salty french fries. Very disappointed after calling the manager on duty who was talking over me and basically saying it's out of her control because that's what cooperate sends to them. It is very unprofessional and should be ashamed to feel like this is okay. It appears to me that they're splitting the chicken tenderlions in half to save money. Better off removing this item from your menu if you can't accommodate the consumers. Never again will I order from them!! Shame on the cooperate office as well to think that's okay. I wish I could give a negative star because that's what they deserve. read more

We stopped in for dinner on a Monday night. We stood in the doorway for quit a while, watching servers walk past us, ignoring us. Finally 1 server did acknowledge us and find the host. We basically sat ourselves in the bar area. We waited a while to be served. By the time the bartender, Samantha, came over to help us, we already knew our order. We attempted to try their new fried mozzarella, but they ran out. We got the new loaded white queso curly fries instead. These came out of the kitchen after our salads. The curly fries were good, but a bit too salty. The white queso was a bit too much. And there were and overload of jalapeños on top. These would be better as just loaded curly fries...the white queso was excessive. My husband ordered shrimp fajitas. No complaints from him! I ordered the Chicken bacon ranch quesadillas, which were as expected. Seeing I had a free dessert for my birthday, I finished up with a molton lava cake. The chocolate shell its usually topped with was almost non existent. But the lava never disappoints! It was very delicious. While Samantha, our server, had a pleasant personality, she wasn't very attentive. Usually a bartender, who is also serving tables, has a lot going on, it wasn't busy at the bar. There were 2 people at the bar. She was mostly distracted by an off duty employee who was also sitting at the bar, talking to her. It was a but frustrating. We ended up spending 90 minutes in Chili's. read more
