We stopped by our local Chili's on a busy Friday night after a long day of shopping and were honestly so pleasantly surprised by the entire experience. Even though it was packed, we were seated right away in the bar area with no wait, which was a great start to the night. We decided to try the 3 for Me combo, and it did not disappoint. Our waitress was very attentive but also super laid back, which made the whole vibe relaxed and enjoyable. We loved that our food came out fresh and hot, you could definitely tell it was made to order. Being able to get an appetizer, meal, and beer for two adults for under $50 felt like such a win, especially on a Friday night. Great service, fresh food, and amazing value. We will definitely be back. Thanks, Chili's you rocked! read more

Connor was amazing! We went in for lunch today and the service was great -- our server Connor (I think that was his name) was super attentive, friendly, and kept the vibe positive the whole time. Food-wise, everything came out fast and hot. The trio platter was fun to try, but definitely on the heavier side. I personally wouldn't get the tenders or mozzarella sticks sauced again because it ended up being a bit much, but the flavors were still good and the sliders were solid. We also tried the seasonal margaritas with the cute mustache straws -- really fun presentation and they tasted great. Overall, good experience! read more

Chili's - Triple Dipper - American Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

Chili's is always a solid choice when you have the munchies. I've been getting the Triple Dipper way before it became an internet trend,it's my go-to! I love that I can mix and match my favorites, split it, and pair it with a salad for a satisfying meal. That said, the experience can be hit or miss. Sometimes the food is fresh and delicious, but other times it takes too long, or the quality isn't quite there. Service is usually okay, but I've had visits where it felt a little rushed or inattentive. Overall, I'll keep coming back for my favorites, but I just wish the consistency was better! read more

Chili's - $7 Margarita Deal! - American Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

I went here the other night to have dinner with my fiancé and it was really good. The food was delicious and the service wasn't bad. The ambiance was loud because it was a Saturday night. I had to2 cocktails and a chicken tender meal. My fiancé had the fajitas. And I took home the chocolate molten lava cake with vanilla ice cream and caramel sauce. All delicious. I would recommend it to anyone who is in this area. Two thumbs up read more

Hard to go wrong with Chili's. I've loved this chain for awhile and tried out this Archer Road location on a Friday night with three friends. We called ahead for a reservation, which was a good idea, because this night it was PACKED. Chili's always has some kind of meal deal going on and we took advantage of that in early October. Given how busy it was, I don't blame our server for missing one of our drink orders. The food was on point, as usual. Sometimes you don't need the most fancy, fast, or exotic food for a good experience. If you want comfort food that hits the spot every time, then Chili's is the place to go. read more

We had an amazing experience at Chili's with our server Leyla! The food was delish and the margs were flowing. It was my friend's birthday and she made the night so special. Can't wait to come back read more

Better than the reviews let on. Ever since the three for me lunch deals were launched we've been coming here about once a month. One of the best lunch deals in town. You get chips and salsa, drink, side and a burger (pretty darn good too). Lots substitution options (side salad is a $1 up charge), so more than enough for lunch and probably too much. If you go with your significant other, one can get the unlimited chips and the other another side, like a soup of the day. The food is solid and while my favorite burgers are still DJ's Cast Iron, these are still great. If you're bored with the typical lunch spots and you haven't been back to Chili's since the 90's, give it a second chance (for lunch). I can't speak for the dinner service but lunch deserves a look. read more

A few months I came by and received 10/10 unforgettable Service from beautiful LEYLA made Chili's into a 5 star, fine-dining experience. Great ambiance, great drinks, great conversation, shining smile, fast service. And drink was always filled. I hate to be thirsty. And let me tell you, she kept my thirst quenched. At all times LEYLA only reason Im throwin down 5 for chillis read more

I mean it's Chili's, it hits sometimes but other times it's so bad, what can I say. I've been to this location a couple times now, and I would say it's. 50-50 chance of getting good food and good service. The most recent time we ordered the smokehouse combo and our food was extremely mid, it was lukewarm when it came out and tasted like it had been sitting on the warmer for 20 minutes already, which is probably accurate because it took like 45 minutes to get our food. The Eddy's strawberry lemonade was delicious though, I would recommend their drinks. People are also insanely loud here, so the environment inside is chaotic but it's Chili's so. read more

Chili's - Big Mouth Bites, Southwestern Eggrolls, Honey-Chipotle Chicken Crispers, Texas Cheese Fries, nachos - American Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

The service was decent, though the waitress took a while to bring back some things we asked for. I ordered the margarita grilled chicken, which is usually good at other locations, but this time it had way more beans than rice (I couldn't even see the rice until I moved the chicken), and the rice that was there was super crunchy and undercooked. The ambiance was fine, but a bit loud. The food was way overpriced and I would only come back if someone else was choosing the place. read more

Chili's - Margarita Grilled Chicken - American Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

Let me first say I have always loved Chili's and have gone to Chili's for years but tonight took the cake!!! We decided to sit at the bar instead of waiting on a table. We order our drinks and a few minutes later we ordered a couple of burgers ( old timer and smashed burger) pretty simple. We were probably waiting for our food for about 30 minutes and 2 girls came in and order 2 smasher burgers. About 10 minutes after they ordered they brought them 2 burgers out. I suspected they were ours as the girls said they we not theirs. Never once where we asked if they were ours they just took them back and a few minutes later brought them their right order! We asked where our food was because we had been waiting an hour and the girls got theirs but we still hadn't received ours. So out comes the manager and all he said was he was sorry the kitchen messed up. No they messed up we just want our bill for our drinks. He never offered any compensation for us waiting so long! He was just going to have them make our food at that time! We won't be back to this Chili's! read more

I went to Chili's after a long day at work I was sat at 4:35 and didn't get service until 4:55. I watched 3,4,5 servers help other customers and seen me like looked me in my eyes and didn't come over with any type of customer support/service... Kamille came in at 5 and served me but it's the people before her shift that I'm targeting from the management to the hostess someone could have came over and explained the situation of change of shift, BUT* I watched other customers get served via bartender whom looked at me and STILL DIDNT COME OVER AND GIVE ME SOME KIND OF REASSURANCE ‍. At the end of the day your section or NOT* communicate with your damn customers PERIOD* Kamille came in and did her job , it's the USELESS waitress,bartender,hostess,MANAGER who didn't work the area pre shift change. Food was bland asf but I was too hungry to complain from the wait and it wasn't busy. To sit and watch other people get served who walked in the same time I did is humiliating and embarrassing and also discriminating against me. I'm a frequent customer this is the WORST SERVICE EVER** Next time don't seat a customer if you don't have damn servers ready to take orders. Yesssss I left Kamille a tip but be damned if the rest was getting a portion ,change your tip share they don't DESERVE NOTHING* cashapp . Thank U KAMILLE the rest go get retrained PERIOD* on customer care/service :: Government Employee B.H read more

Usually, it was pretty good. The last time we went there it was awful. The service was terrible along with the food probably won't go back.

Chili's - a salad with shrimp, lettuce, and cheese - American Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

They are SO SLOW. we waited an hour to get a table then another hour and a half before our APPETIZER came out. I won't be returning. I wasn't expecting amazing service, but this was truly bad. read more

I have only had food from this Chilis twice since I moved to Gainesville seven years ago-- and I like Chili's, I just never had. But I ordered food to go last week and decided to try the new Chicken Crispers. I ended up getting the appetizer trio with southwestern eggrolls, plain chicken crispers, and the honey chipotle chicken crispers. Duuuuuuude. I had to wait quite a while for my order, and I believe that's because I was getting my food very fresh. I took a few bites in the car and those chicken crispers were hot and out of this world fantastic. Like, soooooo good. It was so hard to put them away and drive home. I really wanted to sit there and eat them in the parking lot. That is why I came back four days later and ordered the same thing again, except I didn't get the southwestern eggrolls. I just got another chicken crispers. But the second time, they weren't as fresh, so they weren't as good. They were still good, just not *as good*. Two or three of the chicken crispers were a little bit dry and stringy.. So I would definitely want to be sure I got them fresh out of the fryer next time. But hot damn, that is a really great new item. Four stars just for that. Also, the girl who helped me the first night was so nice and helpful and accommodating. Five stars for her. The young women who helped me the second night was very polite as well. read more

Food was just average, service had my group waiting an hour for food, but it's nothing special

Very long wait. Multiple tables available and more than one worker, still waiting after after an hour.

The food was great but the waiting to get your is another story it took about 30 to 40 minutes to get our food this is the last time I'm going to this chili's read more

I can't believe how disappointed I was with this Chili's. The place absolutely disgusting. We went during lunch around 11:30. They have reduced hours 11-9 so it was obvious that they hadn't cleaned the night before or the morning. Not to mention they had the bartender and one waitress waiting on the entire restaurant. Such a shame. read more

Also a chain with terrible food. I personally would never eat there at all. It's greasy, fattening and just awful

Service good and kind staff! Food also is always good in my opinion. Love the desserts too.

Good food, good drinks, good people. We love going to Chili's for a lunch date or to hang out with the kids, especially the Applecross location! read more

Food and service are both relatively good, but their waitlist system is terrible and very poorly designed. I joined the waitlist for a party of two on the way there because we knew it was going to be busy and we wanted to be as efficient as possible. When we joined the waitlist, the website said it would be a six minute wait. However, when we got there, we were told that it would be around a 20 minute wait, and that it was because multiple parties had gotten there before us which, to my knowledge, defeats the entire purpose of a waitlist. If you're considering eating here and you'd like to be in and out in a relatively timely manner, avoid the online waitlist. Actually, maybe consider avoiding this place altogether if you're in a hurry. read more

Chili's is always a classic. If you're with a group of friends, you can never go wrong with picking Chili's. It has a little bit of everything. My favorite part of Chili's are the great deals. They have multiple meal deals that include drinks, appetizers, entrees, and sometimes dessert. Their skillet chocolate chip cookie dessert is one of my favorites! They also have great drink specials. Their 2 for 1 margaritas are my favorite. For $7 you can get 2 margaritas ranging from classic, mango, strawberry, and blackberry flavors. Last time I came, I got the blackberry and strawberry. Although both were good, I preferred the blackberry over strawberry. I'll be back to try the other flavors though. I haven't been since the COVID-19 pandemic started, but I saw they have to-go alcohol that I've been meaning to try! read more

Normally I love chilis, but my experience at this location was the worst restaurant experience I've had. I waited nearly an hour to be seated and when I was seated, I ordered an entree , a drink, and a appetizer. While the appetizer came, the entree never did. I understand it was busy in the restaurant, but our server walked past us many times, never asked how we were or if we needed anything. We waited roughly an hour for the entree to come, so we ended up leaving and going somewhere else to eat. read more

The place was clean and Really well prepared meals, the taste was great on the sgreat even when this is a chain restaurant, we can tell the difference from other places in south and central Florida .

Very surprised how different this Chili's was, too bad we are very far away from here. But when in Gainesville we will come back here. read more

Chili's - Delicious Molten cake - American Near Me - Gainesville, Florida

Chili's is everything wrong with food culture in the US: corporatized, manufactured, soulless. And existing--even thriving--in all corners of the country. My to-go order was a "Cajun chicken pasta party tray," chips, red salsa, queso blanco, and garlic toasts--which I consumed over three days. Thus, I became scarily familiar to the freaky taste and made myself a lab mouse (for the good of all Yelp users, obviously). The chips, salsa, queso blanco, and toasts were passable. They added a star to this critique. Here's the most-appropriate way to sum up that mutant chicken pasta: Cajun; pasta; green onions; "pico de gallo styled" tomatoes. OR "French; Italian; Asian; Mexican." Hell, even the Frankenstein monster would've been envious! This was my first Chili's meal in at least a decade. But nothing had changed, and maybe things had degenerated further. Well, I'd certainly be justified to continue using this brand (and its distant cousin "Applebee's") as the benchmark whenever rating dreary eats. read more

This place is FILTHY. We walked in around 4:30. The place was almost empty. No hostess. Server came by a few times and told us she would be back to seat us. After about 10 minutes, she came and told us we could sit in the bar, and if we did, she would "just get to us whenever she could". In fairness, the place is understaffed, so I'll say that up front. On the other hand, I saw two tables of two people in the place, so it was EMPTY. We sat down where she seated us, to weigh our options. The table was filthy, sticky, gummy. We looked for some napkins at the bar, and there weren't any. We looked around and saw just how disgustingly nasty the place was and we left. WHERE IS THE MANAGER? Shouldn't they be keeping an eye on how the place looks? read more
