Chips and salsa
Danielle R.

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.

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!

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.

Empty

The new menu must have been part a f an upgrade to the service as well. The host was attentive and efficient. The wait staff made the experience like if was for football games. I don't mind paying more for good food with portions to match. I have had three excellent meals with my family and can say they are back.

Two choice; chicken tostada and chicken quesadilla.

Also, why isn't the outside seating open?? Especially on a nice day, we gotta be able to sit outside and enjoy Hawaii weather!! Short staffed? Hire more! Part-time? Seasonal? Food: gotta bring back the free chips and salsa with a Yelp check-in!!!! The people will come!!

Chips and Salsa, Hatch Queso didn't come out yet. Poke containers for salsa?

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.

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!

Shark attack margarita
Jordynn W.

Food was good, Chillis always has very generous portions sizes. We really enjoyed the honey chipotle mozzarella sticks. The shark attack margarita was great, very sweet but also huge. The restaurant itself is clean, bathrooms were clean, our daughter liked all the pretty glasses. Service was where they excelled, our server Emilio was a sweetheart. Answered all our questions and checked on us often. Left very full

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. :-)

Veggie burger!

Haven't been here for a couple of years! After Christmas shopping at Walmart decided to have lunch since c it was only a few feet away! Was greeted immediately! got a table for 7.. Our server was gracious and took our quickly, it took me awhile, maybe because I didn't see grilled shrimp salad, but they accommodated me! All in all it was a pleasant, enjoyable luncheon.

Fajita Trio! Yum!
Brian L.

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. :)

Mexican sounded good to everyone so we picked this spot and we're all very happy we did. Our server was kind and attentive. The place was lovely and decorated with just the amount of fun you expect. Some great photo ops in there. He even told us they were having a mariachi band tomorrow and invited us to come back. The food from the start with nachos and salsa to the end with tres leches was all delicious. I ordered the chorizo queso and it was fantastic. My son ordered the guacamole and it was so fresh and limey. Also delicious. My grandkids shared a quesadilla which was definitely large enough to do so with. My oldest grandson ordered a torte and he loved it. Also a generous portion. My son and I both ordered the grande burrito. He got his wet and I didn't. His was served on a plate and mine came wrapped in foil in a basket. I wish it would have also come on a plate. I like to cut it up to eat and the foil made that difficult to do.

It took a while to order and to get her attention throughout our time there, but we eventually received everything we ordered. The birria was very tasty, with juicy meat and a crispy shell. The Margarita flights were small, mini tastings which left us wanting more (and yes, we did order more). Regarding the tres leches, it's not the greatest we've ever had but not the worst. Yelp limits how many photos are posted with my review, but there should be 19 photos.

Just like the sandwich shop. Your food also comes with chips a cheese dip and green or red salsa. I ordered a burrito. You have so many choices and the amount you want. I chose ground beef, roasted corn, tomatoes, some lettuce, shredded cheese, and olives. It was the perfect amount of ingredients and made the perfect size burrito. Be careful, the roasted corn is spicy. It comes with some chips and cheese sauce. Pros: AARP DISCOUNT. You get full fast. Like making your selection of filling. Free salas, green or red.

All the toppings tasted pretty fresh, the chips were nicely seasoned and crunchy and the steak was good. I do agree with some of the reviews on here about how the portions, especially for the meat are on the smaller side. My nachos were good but I don't know if it was worth almost $20 good. Other than that, the workers were nice and it was quick to get my food. Just be aware that it will be pricey for not a whole lot of food!

We ordered guac & chips, a carne asada Sope plate, an ala carte beef tamale, menudo and a tostada. Definitely way too much for 2 people BUT we got a little taste of everything. I love that the beans are made with chorizo! The guac was nice and chunky. The menudo had hominy, good rich flavor, the tripe was a little over cooked and soft. I live in Los Angeles and was disappointed I couldn't order it with pig's feet. I was surprised because I know the people in HI love their pigs feet! The tamale was moist and had lots of meat filling. It was nice that it came with a small side salad. The Sope was good, they did a good job of making the masa thin and crispy. I'm not a fan of heavy thick masa for my Sope. The thing I missed here is the queso fresco on the beans and on my Sope, instead they use grated cheddar and jack. Parking is NOT fun, the attached lot is super small and shared with the tatoo shop and NAPA auto parts. I would definitely eat here again.

Literally was 1 small spoon in an 8oz container. I'm a big lover for Mexican food. Living in the mainland & moving back home, it's difficult to find anything compared to their.

We checked in for a table at 7 PM and were told the wait would be 20-25 minutes, which was perfectly fine with us. We waited outside the restaurant as instructed. After 40 minutes passed, we learned that our table had been given away. The hostess claimed a text was sent at 7:21 PM, but we never received anything--and we were only a party of two. If the restaurant relies solely on text notifications, it might be worth adding a backup method, such as calling the phone number provided or calling out names outside before giving away a table. Because of this mix‑up, we weren't seated until 8 PM, and the hostess never apologized. My friend politely explained the situation to our server and asked if anything could be done to make up for the inconvenience. The manager came over, but instead of greeting us or acknowledging the issue, the first thing she said was, "What's going on?" After I explained, her response was simply, "We are busy." She offered to comp only one drink--even though we were paying separately--and still did not apologize for the long wait or the mistake. We grew up eating at this CPK, so it was disappointing to receive such poor service at a place we've enjoyed for years.
