Y'all have to try their pork queso. It was THE best queso I think I've ever had. Give 4 stars because I got a TX mule and all I tasted was ginger beer.. I wouldn't order that again. Good service. read more

Food is pretty good and seems to be consistent. They should offer something before dinner like chips. Service is a little slow.

The food was and tasty and Service and the was good too. I love the casual dining atmosphere. On the flip-side, I would not make a special trip to Bee Caves unless you're already in the area or going someplace else to visit. read more

Every time we eat here we love it. Patio is amazing and drinks are great! Salads are our favorite but burgers and steak was very tasty. Service is fast and really good. read more

Have enjoyed dining here On occasion for about A year, good food and service. However, for the past month, the condition of women's restroom has been unacceptable...broken soap dispenser, one sink has no running water, overflowing trash bin. read more

Great service and great food. We had the chicken fried chicken and it was awesome. Chisos is doing a great job of keeping each table social distanced during COVID and making you feel comfortable. read more

After more than 30 mins, and continued promises that food would be right out, the food was made incorrectly waitress was rude, assistant mgr clueless and manager was pathetic with excuses. We will NOT go back! read more

We went on a Friday night . Chicken tenders hot and crisoy, salmon salad was nice, with firm salmon tasted fresh. Redfish fishy and mealy skin left on bottom a real disappointment and one of the most expensive dishes on menu. I WILL be back because I have never had another bad meal. Good craft beer selection read more

Met friends here for an early dinner. The cornbread is delicious, and so are the tacos. Great service and a nice outdoor patio when the weather cooperates. I will definitely return to try other menu items. read more

The Tortilla Crusted Salmon was amazing. Ian, the bartender was excellent. Highly recommend for anyone out of town!

The atmosphere is awesome. Music is old school country Hank Williams, Johnny Cash etc. Food was great. Wife lived the Salmon salad. I had the burger. Armadillo eggs were perfect. Peach cobbler tasted a little doughy but was still real good. Keep up the great work! read more

I would love to be able to tell you about the food, however after we were seated no one came to the table. My cousin and I were able to read all of the entrées and choose what we wanted while we waited. And waited. And waited. We finally gave it a 60 second timer for someone to approach us, but didn't happen. Several servers and managers and even the bartender passed us and no one bothered to ask if our server had been by. After we decided to leave, the host said he would get us a server. By that time we had made up our minds that they didn't want our business. He said he was new and it was his fault, however several people who worked there saw us. We are hoping it's not because of the color of our skin, but there was no one else in the restaurant who looked like us. Can't recommend this place because we never got to taste the food and the service was sorely lacking. On a good note we went down the street and discovered that Rosie's tamale House is still in business. The food was excellent, reasonably priced, and they have free margaritas on Saturday. read more

Downhill Runner....So disappointed: Margaritas are $9/ea. and we had 3/4 ice in the glass, actually counted four draws on straw !!! The Pork queso was like water...where was the cheese? Sweetpotato fries were like cardboard, the shrimp breading OLD tasting. The shrimps were great...so total shame on that breading mix. Cheesecake dessert was a splurge after being so disappointed in most of the food. Total bill w/o gratuity was over $80 for lunch on a weekday. Glad to pay that amount at Bartletts and more!!! Take a lesson Chisos....are you getting stale?? read more

The food was ok. Was told when ordering drinks that they would not serve a double on the rocks. But when we received out ticket, we noticed the $6.00 extra charge for rocks!! When we asked what it was, the waiter had to go ask the manager. At his return, we were told it was because on the rocks drinks were 2oz servings instead of the usual 1oz. Funny, I thought that was a double. We will not be going back for ok food and up charged drinks! Cafe Blue is much better!!! read more

Chisos Grill - $6.00 rocks (ice) charge! - American Near Me - Bee Cave, Texas

New location, higher prices, less food, worse staff. Chisos used to be one of my favorite restaurants in all of LW/BC. With the new location, my favorite dish went up in price & now you only get 1 side instead of 2. We visited this weekend & 2 very simple meals plus a kid meal took over 30 minutes to be delivered to the table. The manager or whoever that came out was just like "sorry. We will get it out as soon as it's ready". Totally acted like it was no issue & was borderline rude. Our server didn't seem a bit sympathetic either. Overall not a good experience. So sad to see such a great place go so downhill. :( read more

We've eaten here twice now and it has been great both times. I ordered the salmon tacos and they were delicious. A little bit pricey, but we will definitely be back. read more

"We don't have beans" I was told when I asked for some as a side dish. What kind of TexMex restaurant does not carry beans?

Absolutely awful experience. The front hostess on the 4th of July was the rudest person I've ever met who worked front of a restaurant. We got there at 6:40 and were told it would be a 45 minute wait for the outdoor patio. We waited for close to an hour and a half, with a baby, a five-year old, my aunt who is disabled, has a hard time getting around and took a great effort to get over to the restaurant with her walker and was trying to sit comfortably on a bench outside; and after we went in periodically to check on timing were talked to rudely each time, were refused a table inside even though there were half a dozen empty tables inside and were told we could just keep waiting but the restaurant would close in another hour (meaning they were not going to give us any assurance that they would ever seat us even after waiting for 1.5 hours). I am so outraged at the complete lack of respect and the awful treatment we were given - and clearly no recognition of the fact that my young kids and disabled family member were waiting more patiently than they deserved just to have to leave. You could not pay me enough to go back to this restaurant. There is no response from the restaurant to make this experience even remotely better (although firing the hostess would be a start) - even though it was Fourth of July we got there early and it was not overcrowded by any means, so no amount of empty words and placating makes up for this. And please don't try to justify it to save face - you guys really screwed up and I assure you that we will tell anyone and everyone to avoid this place. read more

Chisos is a great place for a nice sit down meal, or a more casual bar-side atmosphere.

I had an excellent experience here. Their steak salad was absolutely delicious. Great service and lots of good options for food.

SIMPLY PUT... I love this place! It's our "go to spot" when we are walking around the Hill Country Galleria. I have tried everything from the chicken fried chicken, to the burgers, to the chicken sandwich, and even the salmon and ribs! EVERYTHING is full of flavor, has unique tastes, and is just amazing. Service is friendly, and the seating is always available in the dinner time hours. Hope you like it "hot" though, as the flavors are bursting in every dish. The cornbread / jalapeno muffins with butter are out of this world. read more

I first came to Chiso's when my mom and I were planning the brunch after my graduation back in May. What drew us to Chiso's was the abundance of gluten free menu items, which was necessary if my aunt was going to attend. Unfortunately for my cousin, there weren't as many vegetarian options, but she had a stuffed pepper and seemed to like it. The manager and owner both talked to us while we were eating and trying out the menu. Everyone was polite and helped us plan where the table would be and how many people to expect. I've never had a complaint about the food. The only time we've ever had to send back food was because the steak on my mom's salad was not medium well as she had requested. The mistake was fixed promptly and politely. Last time I was there, I tried the pork belly tacos, when I discovered I don't like pork belly and it doesn't agree with me (though that was my fault for ordering it). The waitress I last had was in training, being monitored by another server. She was polite, gave recommendations, and wasn't afraid to small talk. It's always a pleasure to eat at Chiso's read more

I've been here multiple times and everything I've tried has been really good. The cornbread is the best I've ever had by far!

5 Stars For Great Food, Great Service ** and ** following good protocols for Covid-19. Their curbside system is as tight (safe) as you can get. Great Job, Chisos management and staff! Thank you! I'll be back again soon. read more

Chisos Grill is a true gem in the heart of Bee Cave and conveniently located at The Galleria. Don't let the non-descrip decor on the outside fool you, walk inside and the decor is hip with a SW trendy feel. More importantly, the food was fabulous, served hot, and with excellent service. We never had to ask the waiter for one thing because he was very attentive. Our party had the Bison Chili, Green Chile Grilled Chicken Sandwich and the Green Chile Cheeseburger, all served to perfection. And, the queso mixed with green chiles was some of the best ever, smooth and creamy. We will definitely visit again soon and can't wait to check out their Happy Hour. read more

We really enjoyed the food, service and ambience. We were attracted by gluten free options . We recommend it and will definitely return!

Food was outstanding! Service was perfect. Waiter told us the owner was Exec. Chef at Gumbo's downtown for ten years and their goal at Chisos is to provide a fine dining service experience in a casual atmosphere. They nailed it! My wife and I will definitely be back. read more

Everything was ordered was fantastic and had a gourmet flair! I ordered the steak diablo I think it was called. So, so good!!! The only things that was bad were the free corn muffins. Dry and bland, so don't eat them, and save your appetite for the delicious food. I will warn you that it is very expensive. I had a Groupon, and still spend a ton of money. read more

Outstanding brunch. I always struggle to find delicious, keto-friendly fare for breakfast, but this place is already quite mindful of dietary restrictions (lots of gluten-free items on the menu). I had the brunch pork chop and sub'ed broccoli for the beans. My hubby had the flat iron steak (the sauce has an incredibly small amount of honey for a big pot to apparently cut the dryness of the chilies). I had a bite - whoa! Our kid had the children's menu pancakes. No tiny portions there; so many kids menus are geared only for the little ones without regard to the older, hungrier kids. Brunch coup! read more

The food and service are always better than you would expect. The prices are very low for the quality of food they serve. Don't walk by without trying this place. read more

Tonight, I left my first ever 10% tip on a meal. As a former waitress, it felt bizarre - I am a pretty consistent 25% tipper for even moderately good service, especially now that we are usually dining out with a toddler. But seriously, our experience tonight was so horrible that my husband said I was crazy to even leave as much as I did. We arrived at Chisos around 6:00 PM and were told there would be a 10 minute wait. This was our first time there, and we thought the location was nice. Sort of upscale, but Yelp told us it was kid-friendly and there seemed to be quite a few other kiddos there, so we decided to go ahead. Things started out well enough - our waiter, Parker, was friendly and drinks arrived quickly. We had a nice spot up front. That's about the end of positive comments I can make. We ordered the queso for an appetizer. While it tasted good, it arrived cold and was a little thin/watery for my preferences. It came with a TEENY tiny plate of chips, so we ended up needing a refill on those pretty quickly. We put in our orders - my husband wanted the green chile burger and I went with the crispy pork belly tacos. We ordered the penne with queso off the kids' menu for our little guy. Then we sat. And sat. And waited. And waited some more. Like I said, I used to work in restaurants, so I am generally pretty patient, but our waiter also hadn't stopped by to explain to us what was going on, so we started to get a bit antsy. Around 45 minutes after we placed our order, our toddler was beginning to get REALLY twitchy and we hadn't seen our waiter in ages, so we couldn't even ask what was up. My husband finally got so irritated that he flagged down a host to ask what was going on, and he told us he would check. About another ten minutes after that, our waiter finally came around to tell us that there had been a problem with our order getting back to the kitchen, so it had never gone through, and that he had been "so busy" that he had been unable to check on it. Unable to check on an order for a table that has been waiting for an hour? UNABLE TO CHECK? Sorry, dude, you weren't UNABLE to check. You failed to check. That's not okay. Period. Not to mention, I don't understand why he claimed they were so slammed - it only seemed moderately busy. Anyway, he assured us that they were rushing it out and we would have our order soon. It was another twenty minutes before we actually got it. Our waiter didn't come by to give us drink refills during that time, maybe sensing that we were pretty pissed off by this point? Although if you have a table that is already upset, maybe avoiding them (and potentially letting them go without things they might need) is not the best approach. And when we did get our order, the food was just okay. My pork belly didn't have much flavor in and of itself, but the cilantro-onion relish was good. Unfortunately, there wasn't enough of it to jazz up the bland tacos. Certainly not worth the $15 they charge for the dish, and my husband's burger was also just okay. On the upside, I guess my toddler seemed to enjoy his pasta? By the time we finished eating, it was around 7:50 and we had already missed a bunch of the live music we wanted to see at the HCG Fourth of July party. I figured that surely, after we waited nearly an hour and a half for our food, they would comp items on our ticket, so I was still ready to leave our waiter a good tip, figuring that they were just understaffed and it wasn't totally his fault. But he dropped off our ticket, completely unapologetic, with EVERYTHING on it - our sodas, our kid's cup of milk, even our $4 queso. No offer to comp ANYTHING to apologize for us having to sit with a hangry toddler for the better part of our evening. That is something I would NEVER have let fly when I was waiting tables. Yes, these things happen, but when they do, you get with a manager and do what you can to make up for a bad experience by taking care of your table's appetizers, or maybe offer a complimentary dessert. You certainly DO NOT drop off the ticket without so much as an "I'm sorry you waited for your food for an hour and a half and had to sing 'Itsy Bitsy Spider' until you felt like your head was going to explode." Whatever. We paid the bill, hauled ass out of there, and will NEVER, ever go back again. Fortunately, there are lots of other choices for food in the HCG. I would go anywhere, even to the Chili's, before I'd give Chisos another chance. Steep prices, bland food, HORRIBLE service. read more

Bren, Chris, and Emilee made my expirience un forgettable. Service was excellent... highly recommend.

Very disappointed. We live in New Mexico part time, and were under the impression from the website that Chisos would have authentic New Mexican cuisine. WRONG. It was horrible. The green chiles, the main thing we were looking forward to and a staple of southwestern cuisine, were obviously out of a can/jar and tasted nasty. We ordered a green chile cheeseburger, which was subpar. And Nuevo Diablo (bacon wrapped shrimp), which were about the same. We purchased the $15 groupon for $30 of food, and both of us are regretting even spending $15 on that meal. Don't waste your time, money, and appetite on this place. read more

My wife and I decided to try this place while shopping in the Galleria. Upon walking in with our three young children we were greeted by a rude hostess whose only greeting was, "Five? ". The staff did not get any better as we waited for about ten minutes for a high chair and another ten minutes for our drinks. Meanwhile, other tables that arrived after us were already served appetizers. The food was pedestrian at best and over seasoned. I've had New Mexico style Mexican food before and I don't remember it being this bad. Avoid the brisket, it's tough and bland and will have you in the bathroom all night. read more

This place has become one of our family's favorites. The environment is great, indoors and out on the shady patio. The drinks are some of the best around. The appetizers are great; I could just eat them for dinner! I have also tried about half a dozen entrees on the menu and enjoyed all of them. The patio is dog friendly (assuming your dog is friendly...). The staff is pleasant, although they seem stretched too far at times. I would prefer this over an overly-staffed restaurant that goes out of business. We like to go here and then walk down the Hill Country Galleria street to see the free Saturday evening concerts and get some ice cream or frozen yogurt. A pleasant family night for all. read more

We arrived at an off peak time of day and were sat immediately with an attentive but not over bearing staff. The food we ordered was tasty and we'd order again! Pulled pork tostados on the appetizers section were amazing and the grilled chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries were very good too! Good local beer selection and waiter was helpful in recommending something we both liked. The restaurant is in a shopping area so a good place to walk around before or after your meal. read more

Good happy hour and really nice staff. We only had appetizers and there special on Margaritas. Only if they had a patio. :(

I'm going to tell you right off the bat that my wife works here. There, judge me if you will, but I promise you I'll be fair in my review. Because my wife works there I could hate on the restaurant as much as I could over-sell it. ATMOSPHERE. Everyone who works there (hosts, waiters, managers, owner) is really friendly. Chad does his best to employee quality waiters. They all have a very positive energy and Chad works hard to reinforce that. The atmosphere is friendly and casual, but don't be fooled, they don't take a casual view on taste. The food is great. For the kind of restaurant that it's supposed to be, it does it perfectly. Some nights they even feature live music, like Justin and Tara from the Nightowls. FOOD AND DRINK. Honestly, it's just a great place for southwestern style food and drinks. I got the "ghost punch" the other day was incredible! When my wife first got her job there we celebrated by trying some of the specialty drinks, and every single one we tried was good. In the "ghost punch" I could tell the ingredients were fresh. At a family gathering last week I tried the pulled pork. I expected run of the mill, barbecue sauce laden, pulled pork. I was blown away by what Chad has put together. It seemed to have a hint of lime or something that made it a touch tart, but so good. (My mouth is watering as I type.) It was like no pulled pork I'd ever had before. The isn't the exception, it's the rule. That's the thing with the food here, it's all a little bit exotic. I don't love salmon, but Chisos' salmon was amazing! Try the truffle fries or the peppadew peppers, and enjoy the apple bacon slaw and Chipotle aioli. Exotic southwestern. There's only one meal I didn't love and that's because although I'm not a fan of many cheeses (especially blue cheese), I tried the blue cheese burger. The burger part was great, but the blue cheese flavor was overwhelming to me. So why did I try it? Because they made everything else so good, even things I'm extremely picky about, that maybe I'd like it. My bad. I guess I expected all the amazing I'd tasted made me just believe Chisos could make miracles. It's about time I write a review. I've recommended this restaurant to so many people. I've eaten here many times while dating my wife. Sometimes when I waited outside for her shift to end, I'd see people looking at the menu and considering whether to eat there or not. I always would jump up and give them my 2 cents. I'd describe some of the things on the menu and every time they'd go in. The food has always been on point when I ate there. Go. Enjoy! read more

Queso is some of the best in Austin....Which is saying a lot because I've lived here for 27 years. Brisket tacos were also amazing. They have improved 200% from when they were located at the other side of the Galleria. New location is really nice and atmosphere is much better. Will definitely go back and bring friends. read more

Best Fried Catfish In Austin, PERIOD! I came here originally because I heard that most of their menu is Gluten Free, but I return each week because I am addicted to their catfish. Try the Apple slaw as well. And they make their own GF buns. :) LOTS of TV's around the bar area, which is HUGE, so perfect place to watch sports. Great live music on weekend nights too. read more
