It never ceases to amaze me how these lame, mediocre eateries continue to stay in business and attract customers. I had the unfortunate experience of dining there recently (certainly not by my choice), and quite honestly I'd rather spent the evening watching reruns and washing dishes. The restaurant is noisy and cramped, and booths are much too small. I was in a party of four, one being a child and the three adults on the petite side. And we still felt jammed into a booth that was clearly made to comfortably accommodate only two average size adults. It took me more than a few minutes to even find something healthy on the menu- I settled on the salmon with rice that came with a side of broccoli. The side salad was unbelievably plain, topped with stale croutons and limp vegetables. I can make a far superior salad in ten minutes, and thought more than once that I'd rather be eating at home. The main course wasn't much better. Even though I asked that a substitution be made for the broccoli, they forgot and had to remedy the problem. The server comes out with the correct side dish, but then she proceeded to take my dirty fork and started scraping the broccoli off my plate. I had to ask her to stop- she certainly wasn't doing me any favors and just making a mess of things. The salmon was bland and over cooked, the accompanying rice tasted burnt and nearly flavorless. The only part I even remotely enjoyed was the street corn that I asked for instead of the broccoli. Overall, an extremely lackluster mea. Again, I wish I'd stayed home. I would have been happier with boxed Mac and cheese. The service wasn't much better. The servers seemed inexperienced and distracted. They kept screwing up the order and making mistakes. One of the people in my party had to remind the waitress three times to bring out one of the ordered sides. Between the noise, the cramped seating, and the mediocre food, I would rate this place as unacceptable. I certainly would never go here of my own volition, but was forced by circumstances. I do not recommend - at all. read more

always yummy the servers are kind and the food is always hot, the tables are always clean and it's always fun

The service was amazing, and so was the food! Waitress was so pretty and nice that it made us nervous but like in the good way. Food was delicious! The only issue we had was that the tables seemed closer than 6 feet apart, but not overwhelmingly close. Overall great time! read more

Chili's - Spicy Shrimp Tacos - Tex-Mex Near Me - Hamilton, New Jersey

They need to hire more bus people and servers. Lots of empty tables around but we're still waiting to be seated.

I've been ordering regularly through this pandemic and their service is really excellent, thank you guys! The food is warm and fresh right when you pick it up!! Thank you so much. read more

I always looked down at Chili's and other chain restaurants similar to this... but about two months ago we finally decided to give Chili's a try. We were very pleasantly surprised. Both of my children have allergies and there's a lot they were able to eat on the menu. After recently going to Ruby Tuesday's and being disgusted, Chili's blew me away with the fact that the food was actually pretty good. I'm not sure why there are so many negative reviews for this location but I'm not sure what people are expecting for the price they paid. The food is inexpensive but decent. You will spend more going to Chipotle. read more

I love chilis the waitress we had tonight was an absolute SWEETHEART! Her name was Jasmine, she had great service and was super sweet!!

Nope. No more. Food here has always been average - about what you'd expect from a Chili's, but the last two times I've been there I've had a major issue with the bill. On my most recent meal, I ordered the 2 for $20 special to go. Walked to the to go window and was directed to the bar. The following conversation is presented to you to the best of my recollection and not exaggerated for comic effect. "Picking up for Jerry, please." "Okay, that'll be..." looks at receipt, "$37.89." "No, that's not right. I ordered the 2 for $20 special." "Well, with tax and everything, it comes to $37.89." "No, New Jersey doesn't have sales tax of over 70%." ::Befuddled stare:: "So, my actual total is?" "I guess I rang it wrong when you called. But I'd have to get the manager to fix it, so....." We stare at each other uncomfortably for about 30 seconds. "Do you want me to get the manager?" "Uh, yes. Yes I do." Bartender sighs audibly, "Whatever. Hang on." Apparantly it was my fault for not wanting to pay nearly double what I should've. Manager did eventually fix the bill, but never even stopped to apologize or see if there was anything else I needed. Bartender of the year couldn't have cared less. There are too many options offering the same type of fare in the area to deal with their consistent lack of customer service. I'll be avoiding this location from now on. read more

i LOVED coming to chilis. Then they got rid of the 2 for 25. WHAT A DEAL. but now it is all over. never coming back until the 2 for 25 is.

When I have a yerning for fajitas I head to Chilis. Their steak fajita is always top notch. I usually get it with the rice and beans and really stuff by fajita shells to the max. Start your dinner off with some texas fries...french fries, cheese, scallions, jalapenos, and BACON with some ranch sauce for dipping. They have the price fix menu too so you can save some $$ if you go with the family. read more

I entered chili's and was not greeted by anyone. I gave my name to the hostess and asked for a table for 4. Sat down with my family and waited for our name. One minute later a family of four entered and was seated immediately. Did I miss something? We are then seated and proceed to wait 5 minutes before our server came over. Our server Blake was friendly though. I ordered for an app chips with guac. It came out without guac and had instead salsa, which was cold, like fresh out the refrigerator cold. I ordered the sinner for two and got the char grilled sirloin, ordered medium. It came out well done. It was edible. The aspharagus that came with it was on point. The other dish I got was the Cajun chicken pasta. The chicken was overcooked as well as the pasta. Overall really mediocre food and service, except for blake. He was the best part of my visit. I wouldn't return. read more

Great service from a cheerful young lady, so good start. Draft beer selection is only OK, but managed to find a favorite and it was priced pretty fairly (as were the food items we ordered, incidentally.) They do have a number of bottled beers as well, so you can get the cold one you want one way or another. The prime rib fresh-mex bowl I ordered was OUTSTANDING. One of the best lunches I've had in recent memory. Wife ordered southwestern egg rolls. They were really sh*tty - greasy, with sparse fillings. That item dragged the review from a 5-star to 3-star, they were THAT BAD. Honestly, I've had them before and they were pretty OK, so I think the cook who prepared them this time might be a new hire, hung over, or just sucks at cooking. I know this review isn't very decisive or easy to use in making a decision, but I can only report what I experienced, and this trip was mixed. Bottom line, as far as I know, is I'd recommend coming here but just avoid those stupid egg rolls - seems like something that's too easy for a community college student/cook who's got his mind on something else to mess up. read more

I don't understand why the management allows dishes to pile up at the bar as well as a half gallon of chocolate milk to sit among the dirty dishes (for the last 45 minutes I've been here). This place needs a staffing reboot. read more

Well this is the 3rd and final time we take out any food at this restaurant. Every time we order extra items they never put them in but charge us for them. Meanwhile, when you call to talk to a manager your left on hold then disconnected. DO NOT ORDER TAKEOUT FROM HERE read more

I picked up an order May 20. As an older woman susceptible to complications of COVID19 I'm trying to minimize contact or prolonged exposure. I had to go to the indoor pickup counter and was the only customer there. The girl at the register called for my order to be brought up but then she stayed counting coins and BLOCKING the narrow space for the other worker to bring over my order and for me to pay. The girl continued counting coins until the girl holding my order noticed my discomfort at the prolonged wait so she made her way through with difficulty to the counter while the girl at the register stayed put and continued to count coins!! This clueless and rude girl needlessly kept me waiting for a prolonged time, increasing my exposure. Her behavior is inexcusable! To protect my health, I will not return to Chilies. read more

Great service and super fast. Our server was attentive and kind. Even when I order to-go from here, they always have the food ready even earlier than my designated time. read more

I really enjoy Chili's but tonight's experience was not good. Meal took longer than other tables and was sent back since it was cold. Waitress forgot to bring back a dinner. Had to go chase down the manager. Use your own judgment to decide if you want to come here. read more

So, as with most chains, you know you're not in for a 5 star meal, but this location was particularly disappointing. My margarita was a shade of green best described as radioactive. Both of our meals were inedible. To top it off, the bill came to $77 before tip, adding insult to injury. read more

Food is just not what it used to be. Server was polite, but inexperienced. We were disappointed in our visit. We don't dine out that often, this time I think we just made the wrong choice. Probably will not go back to this location. read more

Never again. 8:30 PM Thursday night. Sat at the bar for 10 minutes... the place was dead, and there was no bartender in sight. Maybe only 8 customers in the entire place... I can see why. No one cares. I left. I tried to call and speak to a manager to report the problem... they put me on hold for 5 minutes... a manager never picked up. No one cares. I'll use my expense account elsewhere! Bye bye Chili's... never again. read more

While the food was pretty decent, the server could have been a little bit more attentive to me and my friend, especially when our entrees came out. He wasn't too engaging with us and just felt like he was in a rush. Maybe I'm wrong and he had another five tables he was helping out at the same time. If that's the case, I'd give it a 4-star review. read more

One of the worst staffs and their behavior. This is my first review and honestly when you're hungry don't go there. They were angry at the customers. It's looked like they were only taking order according to skin color and race. We waited so long and had to leave without eating. read more

Horrible service and the food was luke warm -- I watched another table walk out because they had waited at their table and a server never showed up. They were busy and seemed like they either didn't have enough staff or the staff was extremely inexperienced. read more

Wow! Just walked out after waiting for what felt like 20 minutes at booth in bar area. Never again!

I was alone so I went straight for the bar area. That seemed to confuse the hostesses but all's well that ends well. The gent that helped me was attentive and patient. I got my food and drinks quickly and he offered to help w their computerized ordering/receipt thingy. Good food and drinks plus good service... That's all I ask! read more

Very good service and food! Keep it up Employees! Very tasty food and drinks! Neat and clean place!

I havent been to Chili's in about 5 years - and now I remember why. Food is just like any Sysco type place - plain, lacking flavor and imagination. Went only because was after normal dinner time for the kids so we stopped in - wish we went to Wendy's instead. Fries were cold, melted cheese on some Mexican thing I ordered was already getting hard when I got it.... sorry, plenty of other places to eat. read more

Had not been here in a while, now I remember why. Food was mediocre at best. Waitress messed up order and then disappeared in kitchen. Never came back to check on table after serving. May be the worst waitress I have ever had in a restaurant. Would avoid this location. Too many other options around. read more

If I could, I would give zero stars! There were only two good things about our trip - we had a gift card, and our server was nice. The water tastes like it came from the toilet. We were sitting by the kitchen, yet all we could smell was poop the whole time. Our food wasn't very good and the sauces seemed to be made from the same toilet water that was in our glasses. Literally the only reason we didn't leave was because we had a gift card. Though we did have fun laughing at how awful everything was, we will never go back. read more

Came in with friends for apps and drinks- had a great night. The bartender showed us some bar tricks and mixed up some awesome margaritas. I've never had a bad meal at any Chili's, and this visit proved that nothing has changed. read more

This was, by far, the worst food I've ever had. Went for hubbys B'day (his choice) The appetizers were fine, & the grapefruit margarita was good....then the main course came. We both got the Fajita Trio, when the food came, no sizzling platter...overcooked veggies, lukewarm food. They got my order wrong, gave me chicken instead of prime rib. Our waiter(who was, by the way, terrific), noticed the mistake & brought out steak, but it was overcooked & salty as hell, & I like salt. It was unappealing to the eye...just awful. My daughter had a Rib eye, and it wasnt any better, it was horribly bland. None of us ate. The manager said they were trying out a new way of doing things in the kitchen...well, it ain't working. He did remove everything from the bill & we went home hungry......NEVER AGAIN! read more

Slow and unfriendly service. Every worker there seemed to be miserable. The food was below average even for a chain restaurant. The entire experience was extremely disappointing and I probably will not be back. Bathroom rating: small, no toilet paper. read more

Typical Chili's. Love it. Never had a problem in this location. Food is as it is in every Chili's I've ever been at. I really like Chili's. Good flavor, good drinks, good service. I especially like the shrimp tacos and BEER. Zero issues here. read more

Chilis in Market Place Hamilton. When you can't make a salad it is time to close up shop. We have been going to Chilis for at least 8 years. We order the same meal you could call us regulars. This is my wife's favorite restaurant and we order out once a week at least. We get gift cards for birthdays and holidays here as per request. That is how much we eat here. We just moved to the Hamilton area and have been going to our local Chilis. We were so excited with how close it was to our home. Sad to say how disappointed we were. My wife orders a Caribbean Chicken Salad. Every time we went the portion size got smaller and smaller. As we order out it comes in the container and at first I wasn't looking in the container. After 5 times of going back and giving feedback to management about the size of the portion you think they would have reacted. No management said to us that they ran out of the regular size container. So wait you mean to tell me you are charging me for a regular size container but giving me a smaller container?!?! Ok you think that would have fixed this?!? No again we have gone and we have had to ask for second containers or to speak to the manager. On our last dine in experience we met one of the new managers who just came here from Princeton as the Princeton location has closed and Buffallo Wild Wings is replacing it. He said to us that he would take our concerns and just to ask for him when we were in. I said we don't want to ask for anyone we just want to give you our feedback. Again we called in tonight after a long day of travel and ordered out. I went to the bar to pick my food up, while 6 associates were having conversation about what they were going to be doing that night and who was going to sit by who in the car ride home. Finally the food came and I paid. I looked in the container to find and empty salad half container again. I asked the waitress if there were bigger containers and she said yes. I said could you put in there. She said, "what do you want just more salad." I said I would like more salad in a bigger container. She came back with another container and thinking after I had come back in from my car to fix the order it would be filled with salad. "The customer is always right?!?" Or just after someone gave feedback and asked for more salad. How much would it cost you for some extra lettuce? She literally only took one half handful of lettuce and threw it in the styrofoam container and sent me on my way. I called back and asked to speak to the manager to tell him and again the immediate apologies and what can I do to make it right. Nothing you can do now, you have lost my business and you never took our feedback to heart. Sad to say we will not be going to Chilis anymore. If I could have made this zero stars I would have. read more

My family and I have been going here for over 2 years and WOW they went downhill. Last night my husband and I waited 3-4 minutes for a host come from. All these waiters and waitresses were passing us by, mingling with there workers ignoring us! When you finally sit down your have many different people waiting on you, it gets confusing. Theres dusts all over the wood, the kitchen is filthy, ever walk to the bathroom? Dont look left. I feel bad for the manager, I can tell no one respects him, it's sad..I hope they can turn this place around, I used to love Chilis.. read more

I visited this restaurant today in order to get a gift card. Upon arrival there was no one at the door so I waited a few minutes and when no one arrived I went directly to the bar. I waited a few minutes for the female bartender named Nicole to approach me because she was too busy bragging to male customers at the bar about, "Oh, no.... they used to come there to see me." Once she finally approached me I asked her if I could get a gift certificate from her. She said yes but she was very cold and acted like I was bothering her. She quickly did the transaction, pushed the receipt in front of me for me to sign, and then she walked away. Let me tell you something Nicole, as a former bartender (25 years), who now manages a very popular bar/restaurant in Philly, you would NEVER work for me! There are thousands of professional bartenders out there with excellent customer service skills, and Chili's should replace you with one of them. I'll go elsewhere the next time. read more

Great atmosphere. It's a chain but there's usually no wait for a table. Loved the recent changes to the menu. You can always count on the coronarita for a good drink. read more

Was here on May 15,2017 and sat at the bar by the tap handles. And our bartender was Kerri .. at first she was polite and good. While we waited for our food. Not once but twice she threw a glass bottles in the trash and the second broke by hitting the top rail of the bar. And almost got into our food. So we said something and the one waitress with black hair don't know her name she was like ok ok. I think she was her bar back . And then the bar back took one of our glasses, washed it and never asked if we wanted another one. So finally we got our check and said something to Kerri and she was oh ok. And said sorry .. so we paid .. after the incident happened we noticed the bar back waitress was talking to another patrons about us at the end of the bar. And on top of this you don't do a military discount because your a franchise.. this was very unprofessional. We will never be back read more

We always go to Chili's when we get a chance to eat out. Not only is it affordable and the menu is pleasing for everyone, but its the perfect place for kids. My 'spirited' toddler can sing at the top of her lungs and blend right in :P read more

Ever since we moved to Crosswicks last year we've had nothing but the best times at Chilis. We used to go to Oxford Valley PA location which is where we moved from and had great service and food from both. Thanks for the fun times and for many more in the future. read more
