We visited on Friday night, with a party of two, and it was an ok experience. We arrived and grabbed a booth next to the bar, the place was pretty full. The waitress stopped by and took orders. Their margaritas are tasty. We each ordered the Pick 3 BBQ Plate with ribs, sausage and quesadillas. The ribs were very dry, like sawdust dry. The Brisket Quesadillas were better than the Chicken, BTW. Chips and Salsa was free with their loyalty program. The service started out good and progressed to horrible. Our waitress essentially parked herself inside a corner of the bar and chatted with a friend after delivering our food. We had to flag down other servers for refills, help with the check, and leftover boxes. Overall, they can do better. read more

I only stop here because of the location and lack of other eating options. It's just your standard Chilis experience. I order the old timer with no cheese. Burger was filling (portion wise) and overall enjoyed it. I do feel like over the years the burger patty does feel a little more frozen commercial burger taste wise (can't explain to). It's not horrible I just notice it. Better than fast food. Sure. The fries were well seasoned with salt and pepper. Can't go wrong there. The waiter was very polite to us, patient and professional. We did leave him a good tip. I'll definitely be back. This place is rarely not busy. I've never had to wait for a table but it's usually steady (bar and restaurant side). -R read more

Chili's - Old timer (no cheese) - American Near Me - Kingsville, Texas

Have not been here in years. I was hoping to see an improved and updated Chili's but no. It was filthy. Restrooms have not been deep cleaned in what seems to be years. Starting to look like run down convenient store restrooms. There was an unpleasant smell while we dined in, food came out cold and distasteful as usual. No point in taking concerns to management because they just dont care. On the plus side they are slightly better than Big House Burgers. read more

I usually love dining at Chili's as I live near one myself, but I wasn't impressed with my recent visit to this location. My family and I decided to stop here for dinner following a day trip to the Valley. Since it was close to 10 p.m. on a Sunday night and Kingsville doesn't have a lot of late night dining options, Chili's was the best bet. It was quite crowded when we arrived, which didn't bother me at all. What disappointed me was my meal, a 3 for Me that prominently featured the Big Smasher Burger. The Burger tasted good, but the bottom bun collapsed on me after a few bites. Also, the men's room could use little maintenance. There were paper towels everywhere. I don't picture myself stopping by should I ever be in the area again in the future. read more

HORRIBLE. Hair in my food and then they still made me pay for it. Waiter tried mansplaining the receipt to me why I was charged twice. They messed up. Hair was cooked INTO my burger so there was mistake where it came from. read more

Steak quality.Asked for medium. Started eating it and it was rare. I can eat a Rare steak but it better be hot off the grill and tasty. It was below warm and chewy. They took the steak back to cook it medium,but we all know it won't be good cause I had already cut into it. read more

To start with, I came here on a trip with my school, alongside several other schools. I spent 30 minutes after getting my drink order waiting for the waiter to come back and take my meal order. All around me the other schools were getting their food already. My waiter was absolutely nowhere to be seen. It took my teacher to point out that we had not yet gotten our orders taken that our waiter finally returned to take our order. After that, it took about another 30 or 40 minutes for our food to come out. In that time, other people had entered, gotten their food, and left before we got our food. After that, we did not ever again see our waiter, in fact, he switched with another waiter. Two of our orders were wrong, we ordered spicy chicken sandwiches, and they were not at all spicy. It took us another 20 minutes to pay. After that horrid experience, I decided to leave him 100 dollars on an 86 dollar check out of pity, even though that service we received was not at all worthy of even a single dollar tip. I am never coming back to this Chili's establishment. In fact, this experience at Chili's has ruined my image of all Chili's. I am severely disappointed, and my day is ruined. I'm currently on a one hour car ride back to my hometown, and all I can think about is how I want my 14 dollars back. This Chili's is an abomination on all Chili's. I hope anyone reading this review understands and never steps foot in this establishment. ​ read more

Chili's - 6oz steak with loaded mashed potatoes and broccoli. - American Near Me - Kingsville, Texas

Horrible food and horrible service. Waited for almost an hour and a half for a to go order and when we finally got the food, the food wasn't even edible. Everything was cold and well, just look at the pictures. Pretty self explanatory. That's just 3 pictures, the rest of the food looked the same. Chili's should be embarrassed to let food that looks like that go out their door. Absolutely ridiculous. We called the manager and they comp'ed it, but just ridiculous. read more

I come here every week and I absolutely love it. The service is great, along with the food and drinks. I will continue to return.

The food was good and prompt. The service was very poor. It took over 5 minutes to get a draft beer after the server and manager refused to honor the happy hour price advertised on the menu that was given to us. I had to ask for a water refill after waiting for a long time with an empty glass and when the server brought two glasses of water to the table she just put them in front of me instead of giving each of us our respective waters read more

Meh...just an average experience. I was quickly greeted and seated. The wait staff was initially quick and then seemed to just disappear. I ordered the Caribbean salad with shrimp. The taste was great but some of the lettuce was past the point of tired. It looks like they mixed a bit of fresh green with some that were old. While you hope that there is some consistency at locations, it just doesn't happen. There are not a lot of choices in the area so I'm guessing I'll probably return. read more

The Kingsville Tx location We went in for a Sunday after noon dinner on 10/31/21. First let me say the lady tending bar did a great job.... However, The asshole server was another story. I ordered the new 1 lb bbq burger, first there the server dumped the plate and ran away and hide from us. next there was no bacon slices on the burger. A burger that boasted 6 slices of bacon. Just some crumbs of bacon on a cold burger.I had to go talke to the bartender about the issue while our serve ignored the issue and tryed to hide from us and avoid discussing the issue. I sent the plate back through the bartender and prepared to cash out. The same server came back and tried to charge me for the poor burger that was returned. read more

Great food!! Only major complaint i had was we were the only 2 people waiting to be seated and i know chili's has a strict "no wait policy" so that was annoying that we had to wait 5 minutes to be seated when it wasn't busy at all. Now the service was average, our waitress checked up on us once after we got our food. The food was delicious and exceeded our expectations. I got the loaded boneless wings and (because I'm pregnant) i asked for extra queso on my wings and they sure loaded me up! My fiancé got the smokehouse burger and he said the only complaint was the onions were really large and he thought they would be "crumb like onions" but other than that he said it was a juicy burger. The chips and salsa weren't that good, the salsa tasted like straight tomatoes and that's it. Over all the food tasted really good but the service was average and the wait to be seated was not needed. read more

Ordered a Santa Fe Salad and a cup of chili to go. I arrived at this location and a sign said go to the bar to pick up order. I waited 10 minutes to be acknowledged, then close to 10 more minutes until I received my food. The salad is suppose to come with avocado, there was none. I asked for the avocado and the picture below is what I received... I am also in the military so I inquired about a military discount, they did offer me one, I can only assume the man that came out to swipe his card was the manager. He was open mouth chewing something and wiping his hands on his shirt on the way to the cash register. Super unprofessional location and they obviously don't have it together. Pass on this location. read more

Chili's - My "avocado" gross. - American Near Me - Kingsville, Texas

Great food! Love the variety of food they serve as well! Staff was attentive to our needs and did an excellent job.

We used to love Chili's. This restaurant was pretty bad. Music was very loud, different in each room (even in bathroom). Toilet seat was broken. Bartender seemed bored. There were multiple workers hanging out, most looked like they had on dirty jeans. Our food was soggy, cold and over priced. Don't eat there. read more

Typical Bay City, Texas Chili's. Crappy, inattentive service. I should know better by now. The quality of the food was good, but the service is always spotty. I miss the Chili's of years ago. read more

Just a mile away from the house open late great food service can get better its not the service but the hostess/ receptionist sees you but ignores you feels like urghhhh !! I hope they fix the problem Before they start loosing more and more customer i have actually seen people walking off even when the restaurants half empty ! read more

Honestly love going to this location since it's one of the nicer restaurants that our small town offers. Great scenery, drinks and food but be forewarned, I have recently tried their all famous ribs and they were honestly god awful. They tasted extremely over seasoned and had little to no meat, but a complete abundance of fat and nerves. Avoid the ribs, order anything else, their food is honestly very delicious and the staff are always in a good mood even if they're absolutely packed with customers! Very attentive and great. read more

I usually come here on the weekends and this time it was horrible. We waited for 20 minutes to get our drinks, while other people were getting menus and their drinks that were seated after us. We could never keep ahold of our waiter. The presto wasn't working for us to pay and we waited an additional 20 minutes just to get someone to help us pay. read more

Disappointed with this Chilli's experience. Normally I'm a big Chilli's fan; however, I found the food at this particular location to be below the normal Chilli's standard. I ordered the Chipotle chicken fresh mex bowl, it was cold on arrival and lacked flavor. We ordered two mixed drinks when we sat down and the drinks were not delivered until the food arrived. We also ordered chips and they were lukewarm and lacked the crispness I normally associate with Chilli's chips. Finally, it's really loud in the restaurant, difficult to have conversation if you're not speaking loudly. I do not plan on returning or recommending to a friend. read more

Best place to eat in town bar none. I spent nearly six months living out of a hotel and after eating at every place in and around Kingsville ended up eating at Chili's almost every night. The staff was excellent - helpful, friendly, always suggesting new things for me. The food was great - I can't recommend their salmon dish enough! I also very much enjoyed the company of other diners - the locals are a friendly bunch! Also? Best bartenders in town Artie, Omar, and Bobby were AMAZING! read more

Love the cajun pasta in this place! Everytime I've been here I get great service. Always get seated and waited on time and the wait staff is super nice read more

My fiancé & i ordered a to go order, came to pick it up, and when we got home the fries were stale and looked like they had been sitting out for a long time, and the pasta was cold. We called the manager, and all he did was tell us he was going to re make the food and that we could go back and pick it up. We didn't receive an apology, or any kind of sympathy. We had to drive back, wait another 15 minutes to get the food and drive home. No refund, or offer for anything. It inconvenienced our night and the service was just awful. I love chili's but this really ruined a lot for me. read more

We stop here on our way home to Austin from South Padre Island because the service is fast, the restaurant is clean, and because they are sensitive to food allergies. Gluten free items are marked and calorie counts are provided. I can't give Chilli's 5 stars because it's not healthy enough for me to dine there regularly but for Texas road food it's a good choice. read more

It's a standard Chili's: good food, friendly staff. I travel a lot, and I like stopping here because of the easy access from the Interstate and the ample parking. read more

Stopped in at Chili's for dinner we both share the two for 25 it was amazing. The street corn reminded me of going to Mexico and getting it from a vendor. The chips and salsa was very fresh. The fajitas were really good a large amount of meat. My partner had the ribs They were cooked to perfection juicy lots of flavor.if we are in the area we will definitely stop in again. Thanks for a great dinner. read more

I order Chili's Ancho salmon at least every two weeks. Went into pick up an order today and the salmon tasted like it was rotten. Horrible horrible horrible taste I am nauseated just thinking about it. Called the restaurant to explain and the person who answered said "umm we will go and check on our Salmon" Horrible service. read more

4:51 pm. In Alice, Texas at Chili's and very disappointed with Management staff. We were seated in restaurant side and asked for happy hour drinks. Was informed by waitress that to get happy hour we have to be on bar side. So she was going to clear a table and sit us over there, but the bartender seated other customers there. So we asked since the limited seating can we get the happy hour prices on restaurant side? She checked with the manager who said no. So we asked to speak with him and she then informed us he was in restroom and he said we could wait for a table to come open. How unprofessional was that and I don't think that this is apart of Chili's Cultural Beliefs? We thanked the waitress for trying and took our money elsewhere! read more

Last week had Chilis delivered and they forgot to send one meal. When we called they said we would have to drive to pick It up. And It was cold with no apology. Tonight I did curbside. I get home and neither order correct and everything cold. After I waited 15 minutes to get It. Very disappointed. read more

This place is the worst possible choice you can make. Eat here and you will wish you had stopped and eaten the bugs out of your grill. I have tried twice and both times the service was very bad. Drive on past. read more

Just like any chili's. The service here is hit or miss sometimes you get great service and sometimes you get no service and wait an hour to get your food. Also don't drink the water. read more

I love chili's. my family and i go all the time. but this specific location is awful. Troy and adam are two of the most lazy managers there. One time my family came down to visit and had the worst experience. we saw our sever twice. Albert who is the manager of that night was amazing. he was basically doing the servers jobs. this chili's is always disgusting, servers don't know how to bus there tables, the back is just filthy. i wouldnt recommend wasting time or money to go this place until they are under better management. read more

Driving back from S. Padre to DFW, stopped for quick lunch - NOT! Took about 1.25 hours to get cold food, had young children needing to eat, waitress was a laggard, manager had no authority over employees, gave us some gift cards to compensate us - but they didn't work! AVOID AT ALL COSTS! read more

We make this a regular place for dinner when visiting Kingsville. This weekend service was VERY slow. We waited 15 minutes before our drinks/starter order were taken. After our waitress finally arrived food was served quickly, and she kept our drinks filled. Meals were usual Chili's affair, nothing special here. read more
