stopped by Chili's in Mililani Towne Center for lunch, and it was exactly the kind of experience you hope for when you revisit a place after years away. The food delivers everything you expect from Chili's -- bold flavors, comforting classics, and sauces that absolutely hit the mark. Their ranch, queso, avocado, and mozzarella sauces were all on point and really elevated everything I ordered. The menu has definitely changed since the last time I was here, but in a good way. Plenty of options, and everything felt fresh and familiar at the same time. Around 1:00 pm the restaurant was surprisingly quiet, which made for a relaxing lunch. The space was clean, comfortable, and well-kept. A special shoutout to my server, Daphne. Even though she's still in training, she was completely on top of things -- attentive, friendly, and confident. She made the whole experience even better. Overall, a great choice for lunch and a solid reminder of why Chili's remains a go‑to spot for casual dining. Marie read more

Service from the beginning was not so great, but the server that served us was good. The host was pretty rude from the start, while checking in she asked if the whole party was here and I said they are in the parking lot making their way in. Then she replied, "well they need to be all in here!", as soon as she said that my whole party was outside waiting, I then told her we are all here, she looked at me rudely and said, " well you have to wait, we are still getting your table ready!!" If you're the first person the customer sees you need to work on the way you talk to them and you need to work on your attitude. Our server on the other hand was very attentive and made sure our drinks were filled. Our orders were taken in a timely matter and food came out faster than usual. Food was good and I enjoyed the rack of ribs. The ribeye steak was also good and also enjoyed the loaded potato soup (pricey for the cup of soup). All in all at the end of the night we left full and content but the experience we had from the beginning was so unpleasant. read more

Located in Town Center of Mililani, it's a stand alone restaurant by City Mill, across from Starbucks and adjacent to Walmart. Each time we've gone there for either lunch or dinner we are welcomed by a friendly hostess who smiles and seats us quickly or if they are busy they ask if we'd like to sit at the bar or wait for a table- if we wait they give us a buzzer and it's always within the time they predicted. Tables are clean, servers are attentive and despite being crushed with tables they will manage to acknowledge you on the fly. The last couple of times we had Jason in the bar area and he was great explaining things to us and making sure we had everything we needed despite having a ton of tables. I just had the quesadillas and he made sure I knew that of the two of them, one of them was spicy, which I appreciated him letting me know. Hubby was happy with Jason making sure he had his beer filled again lol - I mean all they had to do was make eye contact. It was hilarious! Stephanie was our server the other night and she felt bad the place doesn't offer coffee, hot tea or hot chocolate. I was freezing as it had been raining all day and wanted something hot. She suggested just plain hot water with lemon and that warmed me up. Then I could enjoy my steak, mashed potatos and broccoli! I'm telling you this plate for $24.99 was awesome! The steak was cooked to perfection of medium rare, I prefer plain mash, but it does come with all the fixins, and the broccoli was plentiful, fresh and steamed to perfection. This will be my go-to meal from now on! The Cabernet I had with it was perfect too. We go to alot of steak places and you know how pricey they can be, so I wasn't expecting it to be that good because it wasn't a ribeye, it was a sirloin, but dang if that chef didn't nail it! I told Stephanie send my compliments to him/her! We ended the meal with the chocolate cake with ice cream and always excellent with its hard chocolate shell! Mahalo to Jason, Stephanie, the hosts, bartenders, managers at this particular Chili's for always making sure we leave happy and full! read more

For being such a busy night, the resturant wasn't that loud. Our waiter was on point. We sat down, got our drinks and our chips. In about 15-minutes, our meals were served to us. The food was on point. We really enjoyed our meal. read more

Came on a Thursday night and the place was packed! There were plenty of people waiting for tables, but the host told us that the wait would be about 20-25 minutes, so we decided to wait. When we got on the waitlist, it was through Yelp! I didn't realize I could've done it before we even left home! But it's okay because we only waited around 15 minutes before getting seated at the high tables. Our server, Jayson, was nice and friendly and super attentive especially for how busy it was. We got our water right away and didn't wait long for our pupus. We ordered the bottomless chips and the 8 piece wings. my husband got the Nashville hot, and I got the sweet chili. Both flavours were 10/10! I could've easily eaten a dozen myself. For our mains, my husband went with his usual Triple Dipper. His fried mozzarella didn't have that cheese pull this time, but he still loved it. I had the margarita grilled chicken with Mexican rice and subbed the beans for broccoli. I was worried the chicken would be dry, but it was actually super juicy! The broccoli was a bit softer than how I'd normally cook it. But it's okay. All in all, we had a good meal, great service, and awesome time. We'll definitely be back and next time, we're getting on that waitlist early! Also bring a sweater, it was kinda cold! read more

I would like to provide an update since my last review. After my last review reflecting my last experience that wasn't positive, Chanel, who I believe is their public relations manager reached out to me to get more information on my experience. After our conversation, I agreed to give Chili's another chance. My family and I stopped in earlier this month after my sister's Hula performance. My experience was a lot better. Upon being seated, our waitress greeted us right away and took our drink orders. It was a busy Saturday night. She came back and took our orders. I had shared with her a card that I had created that listed my food allergies for her to share with the chef. My order came out perfectly and it was delicious! I want to thank Chanel and the staff for making my experience a lot better. read more

Kyler took excellent care of us and our 2 kids tonight. Always a great start when the kids get their food quickly and get right to work.

Technically should be a 3.5 star review. There were 2 hosts for once and they were kind and prompt with service. Sat at the bar booth with 2 others. Bartender was friendly and prompt, service was great and the wait wasn't bad. Lost 1 star by using a plastic 8oz cup for the salsa that we ordered. Odd because that's usually a back of house or takeout thing. It's the ones we get when purchasing 1/2 lb poke. Looks like there was enough bowls another dishes to make it a little nicer. Kudos to the lady working Expo in the kitchen, she had them rolling with food coming out, even asking for runners. Timing on plates were great (for once). Lost a 1/2 star there, there was no music or TV playing, so you could hear EVERYTHING from the kitchen. Not that anything bad was heard, just customers don't want to hear someone yelling...RUNNER! Overall pretty good considering. read more

I hadn't been to Chili's in a while and decided to give it another try this week, but unfortunately the experience was really disappointing. The service was the biggest issue. Our server forgot to bring out our appetizer, and by the time our meals arrived, we just asked her to cancel it altogether. Then she took my empty beer glass and said she'd bring another one, but never came back with it. I even saw her making other drinks, so it was pretty frustrating to be overlooked. When she finally checked in again, I just told her I didn't want it anymore. She did apologize, but at that point it didn't really mean much since we already felt overlooked multiple times. It's a shame because the food itself was actually good--but the service just overshadowed everything. read more

Had the smash burger with cheese & fries. Although the burger was somewhat flat lol, it wasn't a smash burger. There's an actual technique to making an official smash burger. With that said, the burger was still tasty and the beef quality was good. Mr. Chow gives 3 & 1/2 stars read more

If you don't mind waiting and waiting then this is for you, talking about ordering online or calling it in. It's normally not too bad but last night was just unbelievable ridiculous in waiting. Called in the order, told 15-20 minutes, knowing it's never ready on time came 30 minutes later. Got there and "that's when they do their check of food" rather than when it's being packaged and placed in the bag. They messed up on my burger and added cheese and had to "remake" it, 10 minutes I was told. Mind you 10 minutes went by yet no one comes to me to give me updates then 20 and when I'm asking about it I was told still working on it. And I have three other orders I'm holding all getting COLD since I was just waiting. Then finally 30 minutes later I get it. However, here's the new thing I've never saw Chili's do. I open that burger when I got home and lo and behold what do I see, remnants of cheese on the burger. So apparently the burger wasn't re made. Cheese was just scrapped off the old one and handed to me but 30 minutes it took to do this. And also, it was not hot, you would figure the Burger would be warmer in temp compared to the other food I was just holding for 30 minutes. Nope. This was just a disappointing night with Chili's. Thanks Chili's for a very unpleasant and frustrating night. read more

Came in Sunday for a quick dinner and had such a great time. We were sat down immediately and our drinks came soon after. I ordered a margarita with a few modifications and it came out perfect! We mentioned sharing a burger to one another when ordering since we couldn't decide on our entrees, the server overheard and BOH brought out our burger and sides already split on two plates! It was such a kind and thoughtful touch. I've had nothing but great experience with the FOH staff here so far and it gives me nothing but reasons to come back. Also if you were the one serving my boyfriend and I, I'm sorry he can't count lol. Thank you for being kind and understanding. Thank you so much! read more

What an unfortunate, terrible experience I had tonight, unlike my many past experiences dining here. For reference, it's Valentines Day and my husband and I checked in a little after 6pm and were told our table would be ready by 7:25, which was cool. We walked to town center to kill time and came back to the host, who was terribly rude. She said they had a 10 minute grace period and basically to leave. I told her it was 7:22, 3 minutes before said time. I explained to her that we waited for 45 minutes. She basically shrugged us off and had a bad attitude stating that she took us off the waiting list. I walked out and her co-worker apologized to my husband and so did the manager, which I give props to, at least they tried to make up for their ignorant hostess. The manager said they had seating for us and she would serve us herself. It was too late and my appetite to eat there was gone. To that hostess that treated us poorly, thank you. We really enjoyed our Valentine's dinner at Black Angus and would highly recommend to anyone looking for friendly service and great food. :-) read more

Food - 5 stars Service - 5 stars Ambiance - 4 stars, only because the people in the next booth were talking very loudly. Went to Chili's (Mililani) for a late lunch and was seated right away. We had a couple of questions about the menu and Daphne who was our server was patient, polite and answered all of our questions. She brought our drinks along with chips and salsa and came to check on us several times, before bringing out our entrees. We ordered burgers and fajitas which were seasoned and cooked perfectly. Kudos to the chef! We later found out that it was Daphne's second day working and she was being trained by Steph. She was simply amazing, she checked on us several times to see if we were enjoying our meal and even refilled my drink three times. She was totally awesome! If you ever get a chance to eat at Chili's Mililani, please ask for Daphne or Steph, let's support great servers! Thank you for reading. Bon Appetit! read more

On Sunday, after watching NFL football, there was lots of advertising including the special (Chili's three for me) burgers with fries for $10.99. When we arrived and was seated, I went to order and was told that they don't honor it, and only pertains to mainland. I was disappointed, but went ahead and ordered the smash burger with fries. The burger was moist and flavorful. The fries was average. The atmosphere was okay. The wait staff was great. Looking forward, I would come back and try other things. read more

Stepped into Chili's today for a nice dinner. It was a pleasant experience. The wait staff did a great job at taking our orders and the restaurant was clean and comfortable. Chili's isn't one of our 'go-to' places typically but we might make it one soon, considering the great service and cleanliness. We shared the fajita trio and bottomless chips and salsa. Everything was great tasting. The only thing they can improve on with the fajita trio is maybe add more than just 4 tortillas. Especially if your sharing with your spouse or friend. Four tortillas doesn't really go very far with two people. Overall, great experience and very glad we stopped in. Looking forward to our next visit. :) read more

Went early in the afternoon (3:30) and was seated at a bar side table during a football game. Mind you, the restaurant was empty! Friend and I couldn't even talk to each other it was so loud with the two gentlemen watching the game. Went with some friends and was told that they ran out of chips and didn't have any available. As we were eating another group came in and got fresh chips so we tried to order some too and was told they didn't have any. How can one table get and another not?!? read more

Came here one night after football practice with a huge group of us. Love how Chili's was able to accommodate all of us and we were able to sit the adults on one long table and the kids on the other long table. Pupus was good, we especially enjoyed the guacamole. It was not sour, not spicy, and just the right amount of chunky. We appreciate how the kids menu was an affordable price for us especially for the big group and the kids being small eaters. The food was great, no complaints. Only thing that lacked was the service, bc we were an huge group, you would assume we'd get checked up on, but nope, service was veryyyy slow & our cups of water were empty for a whilez read more

Came on a Saturday night. 15 minute wait. Got to sit bar side at a high top table. Seems like entire section was run by 1 waiter but he was 10/10! He let us know when we put in our food order that kitchen was backed up and that there might be a delay. Much appreciation to our server Jayson because that was communicated early on during service! He checked on us frequently even tho we sat around a chit chatted for a decent amount of time. Thank you Jayson for giving more than exceptional customer service! read more

Food was good, but service was very slow and substandard. She took a while to get our drinks. Then our order took 1/2 hour at least, and she never came by to give us updates, nor refilled our drinks! I used to love Chili's, but I 'm gonna wait a long while before going back! read more

Update: We used to go here often but when you aren't local the service is really shoddy, to say the least!

Ire was an excellent server. Friendly, accurate, and attentive. We had a great dinner tonight. Mahalo!

The food was good everything came out hot which I appreciate. What I didn't appreciate was the service. Our server I don't know her name, so I'm gonna describe her she is African with short faded haircut. First she came to our table complaining about the her job that's something I don't want to hear. Our food took very long to come out she never check on our table really at all. Could barely find her and when I finally decided to ask for her I was told to wait a minute after my family and I waited for 20 mins just For our bill. When she finally came out she acted like everything was okay like nothing happened. Filled our cup of water once and never put any ice in it just tap water. One of the most lame servers I came across please quit if that's how you work. read more

It wasn't event crowded when we got there. The hostess was slow moving and sat us in a hot area. We asked to be seated somewhere else. She asked the bartender/server to clean the booth and we waited another 20 mins. While the hostess was seating other parties. We asked for the Manager on duty and all he did was try to seat us somewhere the hostesses said we couldn't go. Which would have been fine from the beginning.

I went to pick up some chips and salsa for our Taco Tuesday. Omg! $9.99 for a small bag (think medium size bag of chips for $1.29 at the market) if oily soggy chips (I think it was leftover chips from a table) and a small container of salsa (1/2 lb poke bowl container). And... the container wasn't even filled halfway!!! I should've gone to Costco and gotten a huge bag of chips AND a huge container of salsa for the sane price. This is just insane. I will NEVER go back. Now I need to go to Costco to buy chips and salsa because this won't even feed my 9 year old, let alone my family of 5. read more

This is my first time at Mililani's Chili's. I met my brothers and a friend there for a small get together. The server was Gwynth? But her first name is Princess, very friendly. I had ordered the sampler: chicken wings, sliders, and a chicken black bean corn wrap. My brothers thought that was the appetizer for everyone. I said,"No...it's my main dish." They said, "What?!" Sliders were small, soft buns, and beefy cheese flavor with ketchup added to buns. The chicken was slightly spicy, temperature hot! I dipped the wings into the ranch sauce...nice spice cool down. That was the bomb! The wraps were real Western like flavor. I used the avocado flavored dip that added a creaminess. I love avocados...perfect pair for the wraps. Last, my brother ordered a chocolate lava cake with vanilla ice cream. That took it over the top! I needed a wheel chair after that. Ciao! read more

I came here specifically to to talk about Josh and how well he makes a margarita however everything else was horrible. I don't know what is going on with Chili's but we have been coming here every week for years the quality of food has gone down and the quality of service as well. We came in, sat down and waited on our food. They forgot to bring mine now, which was fine as we know that sometimes the kitchen can get busy when they finally did bring my food out my burger was over cooked just horrible . My husband usually gets the trio and it tasted awful as if it was dipped in grease and was sitting in there without cooking I actually have never seen him complain about food but this was it for us.
