Food was not as good as usual. It was better when we ate leftovers the next day - after baking it did crisp up like it should have been when served. Bar service & table service was good! read more

The atmosphere is good,the place is always clean ,the waitress and waiters are always friendly and they know the menu but the best things are the food and price. You can't beat the quality of the food for the price. read more

The Nashville Hot sauce is the real MVP: that slow-building cayenne heat mixed with sweet undertones, buttery richness, and just enough kick to wake up your taste buds without overwhelming the melty mozzarella. Dipped in Chili's house ranch? Absolute heaven--it cools the spice perfectly while adding creamy tang. I went for the shareable 6-piece because why settle for less when the cheese pull game is this strong? read more

This was my first Chili's experience and it was wonderful. Our server was a delight and the food came out incredibly quickly.

Order got totally screwed up, waitress lied to us about reasons for delay, very frustrating experience. Manager did come out and took all of the food off our bill. Very professional way of handling the situation. Given the lousy service and the lies about what happened we will not be back. Food was OK but not worth all the aggravation. read more

Monday evening early dinner. I ordered the chicken fajitas. They came out quickly. Hot sizzling goodness. I do think the chicken could have had more seasoning, but it was still good. My waitress did an excellent job. I did see a sign on the door advising reduced hours. The waitress mentioned they were short staffed. read more

Chili's - Chicken fajitas - Bars Near Me - Sandusky, Ohio

We don't have Chili's anymore in my part of Michigan. On a Saturday afternoon, Food was fast, great and waitress was amazing.

Awful experience, awful food. The waitress made fun of my brothers stutter. I wish I would have gotten her name. She was incredibly rude and pushy. Burger King would have been a better option read more

We ALWAYS stop at this Chilis on our way home from Cedar Point! This location doesn't always get a great review, but it's a chain restaurant, and it's always been good....hence why we keep coming back. Happy Hours appetizers and drink specials are on point. Margaritas for $4, including an extra shaker. You can't beat the deal. We had the spicy shrimp tacos...hold the cheese please and of course they came with cheese, but an easy fix. My husband had the loaded burger and no complaints. We will be bs k the next time we head this way. read more

Hours on Yelp indicate the restaurant closes at 11 p.m. Arrived at 9:25 and was told that I couldn't be seated because they close at 10 and there were three people on a waiting list in front of me. They must have been invisible, because there was no one else waiting in the restaurant to be seated. So I went across the street and spent my money at Olive Garden where I was greeted by a friendly hostess, promptly seated (they close at 10 as welll), and served by an outstanding and very friendly waitress. read more

Staying at the Kalahari Resort for the night and didn't want to spend tons of money on their overpriced food, so, went to Chili's and had my expectations blown out the water. All my other experiences have been very underwhelming, tried Chili's for the first time in Michigan and their Mango Habanero chicken strip things were awful; then the Chili's in Canton, OH gave me a lackluster overcooked cheeseburger. This place however gave my partner and I our food at an extremely fast time as well as [at least in my case] a perfect burger and side of fries. The server we also got was full of extroverted positive energy and constantly checked on us and gave us updates on our food/drinks. Wish I got his name so I could publicly compliment him...the little kiosk we paid on had the name "Ryan" at the bottom left so maybe that was his name? I don't know, delicious quick meal and really nice server. Only complaint: The host that gave us our 10-15 minute wait time took my name and number and while my partner and I say in our cars waiting; almost 20 minutes went by with no text of any kind so I went in to see if maybe the number they had was wrong or something but turns out the host simply clocked out and forgot to text us that a table was open. read more

The food was good and hot service was good to poor but server didn't come back and forgot root beer :(

They have the best fajitas; semi-expensive but give you a lot of food - steak and shrimp was excellent!! All you can chips and salsa - delicious! Meat queso is yummy!! Food is always good! read more

extremely slow service. 10 minutes from seated to first server contact, on a very down time. 30 minutes to receive food after ordering. Requests for refills and to go box took another 10 minute. Server never checked in and was MIA the vast majority of the time. Food, over cooke, probably sat under the warmer on the pass for too long. Ambiance of untidines, sat staring at a dirty table for 40 minute. read more

Every time I go to this place I get a blue lagoon drink and it Always has a bug in it including flies and mats and when I get a new one it always has the same thing Nate and flies. My service is always good and I love it but it's the drinks.I couldn't enjoy my Birthday because my ice cream and cookie had hairs in it yes hairs but not any type of black hair or something but it was orange,pink and blue. The restrooms are always dirty I recommend a cleaner every time because it always dirty.I get it the service is good the food taste good but the rest is just bad. read more

After a whole day of walking around at that big giant theme park in a island nearby. Screaming your lungs off can definitely get a whole group famished. It's also only proper to fill up the belly for our 3hr ride back to Detroit of course. Presidente Margarita: a little on the sour side. Wasn't very strong either. Chips and Guac: Very Yummy Prime Rib Bowl: flavors were amazing. A bit meager. I felt as if i didn't munch of the chips and Guac I would be left hungry still.I'm Prime Rib Tacos: This one was really good. Although I felt like it's basically the bowl just in taco form. The service was very pleasant. We had a great time drinking, eating and shooting the breeze. We definitely had a great dining experience here. Thank you for reading my review. I hope this helps. Enjoy your awesome yelptastic day!! read more

As soon as I walked in the smell was terrible..like old grease..got there 2 minutes after it opened. Didn't even bother to sweep the floors..crumbs all over the floor. When got food, soup was so salty couldn't even eat it,bun on sandwich smelled like it was old. Use to be one of my favorite places. Definitely not going back. On a positive note..staff was very polite and efficient with serving. read more

My pregnant wife and I walk in to Chili's where we are greeted by two employees. The restaurant had several opened tables, even by Covid standards, they were empty. One of the employees (I'm assuming) was a manager, and the other had her belly hanging out the bottom of her shirt. The manager asked how many, my wife said "two please" and the manager walked away. A few minutes go by, and the other employee finally asks if we need help. Confused we informed her that we thought the other employee had gone to get a table, we weren't sure what was happening. We were told she was just heading to the back, and that is when the following conversation happened. Employee: it'll be a 20 minute wait Wife: really? Is the bar area open seating? Employee: no At this time three tables walk out. Wife: is there an opening now that they left? Employee: No Wife: what if the table was bused? Employee: I'm not cleaning it Wife: I'm not saying you.... how long do you think now that they left? Employee: Still 20 minutes. Obviously there's people ahead of you (the lobby was empty). Wife: nevermind, we'll go somewhere else Employee: Bye We went here because we got a gift card as a baby shower gift, and now we never want to go back. We understand businesses having issues with Covid; but when your restaurant is empty, and customer service is as important as it is, why would you EVER put someone that is rude, short, and lacking any ability to communicate effectively as your hostess? This experience was negative enough to convince us to never go back. read more

The service was the best I've ever received when I went last night they were so quick with everything and everything was fresh, our server was so nice and always checked up on us. Seriously if you want to go to a Chili's up in Sandusky GO HERE!!!!! read more

My family has been coming to this Chili's for years, my nine-year-old has ASD and chiles as one of his saved restaurants. Lately everything has been horrible, they're out of everything you try to order and I reached out to corporate and they apologized explained that there's been management changes and offered us a be our guest Ticket to go eat on them. So a couple nights ago our family of four went back to our trusty chilies and we ordered our favorites. And everything was perfect. Maybe the new manager is getting things in order but I can tell you for sure there is a waitress named Renee who is amazing at her job and was even compassionate to my sons special food needs. Thanks to the be our guest ticket and the amazing service we received from Renee we will continue to come to Chili's again. read more

If it were actually possible to give them a lower score i would. Avoid eating here at all costs. The service is slow which i can tolerate to an extent but the place is called Chili's. I order the Chili... WOW i guess it would have been good if it were supposed to be water with 2 beans and 1 small piece of meat. This place did not even come close to living up to their standards. Now let's talk about how cold it was in the Restaurant. My family ate with our coats and hats on... The bathrooms were also not clean. Avoid ever eating here. read more

wow i cannot believe how amazing this was, like a storybook of flavors. my server was great, her name was britt, and so nice and gave me extra sauce i got the cajun pasta, and it was so good yummy yum, i can't wait to come back and get more. this was my first time and i will be returning thank you chili's for making my life better and for it to be the best day of my entire life read more

Went for lunch. Food was wonderful and came out fast. The kids had crispers and I had an explosion salad. Sam our server was very attentive to our needs. We were treated like family. Everyone left happy and we will definitely return. read more

Charlie will meet you at the counter and take the number of people in your party... but never ask for a name. When asked why she will say " I didn't know you wanted to eat here!" Really??? I'm standing here checking in!! She will add you to the list and tell you to wait outside!!! She will then remove your name from her list without warning but blame you for doing it! The Edentulous manager will apologize and tell you he will take care of you! All this means folks is he will walk away and do nothing about the problem and he won't help you on the slightest! The waitress was fantastic but the treatment you receive otherwise was deplorable . NEVER GO HERE read more

Really, really exceptional service and food here! Our waiter Chris was very attentive and helped us out when the electronic payment kiosk wasn't working completely. Very patient. Other staff were also very helpful and fast. The food was also excellent and absolutely worth my time and money. Would absolutely come here again in the future. read more

Chili's - a piece of paper with a thank note written on it - Bars Near Me - Sandusky, Ohio

I walked in the door at 11:49 AM, according to my phone. There was not an employee in sight. After a couple minutes, the bartender came out, but she didn't look my way at all. I stood there a little longer when another customer came in behind me. Being ignored in a restaurant is a pet peeve of mine, so I turned around and walked out. I drove across the street to Longhorn Steakhouse and had a great meal. My bill was $27.00 and I left a $10.00 tip. read more

They can't seem to get their kitchen staff together and it's effecting DoorDashers very negatively

we were told they are understaffed, but they're were more staff that could've been serving, including the manager and hostess. Also one of the servers was just talking to their friends and on their phone, whist they were supposed to be working. NOT ON THEIR BREAK. And not checking on his tables. We were I my seated after we asked how long was left, coincidence? I think not! However our waitress was very attentive, and helpful all around. The food was also good, considering low staff. Final thought, it was ok but could've been better. We were lied to about the number of staff available. read more

After a long day at the amusement park, chili's was the place of choice and oh it was worth it. With great service and an abundance of food on the menu, I overall had a great experience. The chicken and waffles were a great appetizer and the spicy shrimp tacos tasted great! read more

Chili's - Bars Near Me - Sandusky, Ohio

Walked in at around 7:00 to about 5 tables filled in the whole restaurant. The hostess was leaning over the side of the wall, turned around and said it's going to be about 25 minutes. I looked around again, was very confused. I know places are short staffed but I also used to be a server and the amount of tables that were seated at the time one person could have handled. We were only a party of three and think it is so ridiculous that a family of three on a Wednesday evening would have a 25 minute wait at CHILIS!! Wow!! read more

I usually have a good reviews when I come here. Today though I didn't get any lemons or sugar with the ice tea so she wasn't as alert paying more attention to her friends across from me. Will be speaking to the manager read more

The night was absolutely ruined by our server. The controversy started when the woman came to our table, we had empty cups for 15 minutes, she had no business being at our table and she got us involved in drama. Our server, Robert was pissed that she got us refills, he left the drinks behind me, rolled his eyes and walked away. How immature. He ruined the rest of the night by rolling his eyes, throwing napkins in our faces and blowing us off. Thank GOD I will NEVER be back in Sandusky Ohio. Chili's, you have failed us. read more

Sunday night. Needed to pepper in some fun. I realize a lot of Yelpers don't think highly of the classy sir-down chains, myself included but Chili's is my exception. Hell, even Ted Danson slums it up at a longhorn every now and then. Anyway, I got the bottomless tostadas and salsa, some "loaded" queso, and a smothered burrito. Just something light for an autumn Sunday eve. Food was as expected. Good not great. But that's what is so great about this place--rarely wows, but never lets me down. In the words of Kanye, "Man why can't life always be this easy". Full disclosure I have adored chili's for years so it may be nostalgia speaking. read more

Evelyn our waitress made our meal incredible! We came in and stayed a little after close on accident and she was so kind and accommodating! She was an absolute delight! read more

We were on the road all day.Traveling back from Madison,WI. Spending 2 nights in Sandusky on our way home. Wanted to dine at the waterfront cafe only to find out they close at dusk?? For a popular water parks resort like Sandusky,Ohio and a prime location for food and drinks on the water that closes at DUSK in the Summer?! I must say this Chili's was very accommodating and stayed open a half hour past closing time to accommodate us and others says a lot. My husband and I are grateful to the staff that waited on us.We were so tired and hoped to eat better than gas station food. Thanks to them that happened. read more

I walked in tonight at 7:15 pm. Sat at the empty bar. The bartender girl asked what I wanted to drink and I always reply a water to start since I was unsure. Not only did she not bring that, she walked away and I could hear her talking and laughing in the back. I walked out at 7:35 without a water or my order taken. Also at least one waitress saw I was getting annoyed and did nothing and kept going on with whatever she was doing. Forget this place! read more

I've been here several times and always enjoyed my meal! My experience this time wasn't as well...I ordered a strawberry daiquiri and got a strawberry margarita..easy fix...But my meal was another story..ordered a grilled chicken burrito...about half way into it I found raw chichen....I was done! Nothing was done about it other than " I'm sorry". I won't be coming back !!! read more

The food was typical for these types of joints.....at least that's what we expected. However our experience took a twist and that's why I decided to write a review. My wife and I ordered the cheese fries appetizer and I got Cajun Chicken Pasta while she got Margarita Grilled Chicken for entrees. For some reason however, the cook seemed to be spice happy and doused my pasta with seasoned salt. It was gross; I couldn't taste the chicken or alfredo sauce because the salt was so over-powering. My wife got a side of corn-on-the-cob and it was the same way, salt city. We were very hungry and upset that the food came and we couldn't eat it without getting high blood pressure. We complained and I thought our waitress would be less than happy, because we had been asking tons of questions already. Hey, it was late, and I'm sure she just wanted us to eat and vamoose. However, our server (Samantha) couldn't have been nicer.....and it wasn't the college cheerleader 'GO STATE' type of chipper/phony nice. She was super cool, apologetic and attentive without even the slightest hint of an attitude. She immediately put in another order (without the salt) and fast tracked it. In a few minutes I had a hot plate of delicious Cajun Chicken Pasta (and hopefully the cook didn't spit in it too much:). It was delicious. Good job Samantha, good job Chili's. read more
