Chuys is a great place to bring someone from out of town! It is really a Texas Mexican place. The margaritas are soooooo good!! and the chips and salsa I could eat for days. I have bought a few shirts from them in the lobby and they always come cool new ones. Every time I come back to visit Arlington I have to go to get my fixing! read more

Been coming here for years and it's always a fun time! The most recent couple of times I've come, I noticed the prices went a little up but that's okay. And because of COVID there's also been more of a wait then usual so maybe calling ahead would be best. read more

I have been wanting to try this restaurant. I love Mexican, especially Tex-Mex. When I arrived I was told that I could sit in the bar, which is what I wanted. The restaurant was reasonably busy but not on a wait. I was told I would be seated as soon as the booth was cleaned. I could see the booth from the door. I could hear the discussion among the hostess staff about why wasn't I seated. 15 min later I was seated. I inquired about a certain margarita on the menu that was made with 1800 Jose Quervo. I know a little about tequila but I inquired if 1800 was considered a more top shelf than Jose quervo gold. I was told yes. I wanted the 1800 margarita but wanted to substitute for quervo gold, not the upgraded 1800. I was told that it would be more money, but just a few cents, which was fine, but I didn't understand, ( It ended up being a $1 more, not just a few cents) But ok, for a few cents more, ill downgrade my tequila. It took almost 20 min to get my margarita. My server told me he had no idea what took so long. Now, mind you I was seated 10 feet from the bar and could see everything that went on. My drink was never made. I especially was taking note if the bartender was busy or not. The manager brought over my drink. No apology, just a "here you go". I ordered a chicken chuychonga. ( Their version of chimichunga). It did not take long for my food to come out. It turned out to be the wrong flavor sooooo. My server took it away ( no apologies, just frustrated) The manager returned again with the right item with a joke about nothing seems to be going my way...The food was decent, not expensive, my server was mediocre but nice, my SERVICE left a lot to be desired. The food or the margarita ( I love, and I mean margaritas) wasn't good enough to make me return. Over all I was disappointed about my experience there. read more

I would like to start this out with our server Shelby was amazing, the food was great, service was great. It wasn't until the general manager Josh came up to us and ruined our dinner. Josh targeted us out of all customers and wouldn't serve me one Dos XX. He came and said " I see you've had three margaritas and two shots." I said I only had one shot." Other customers have had a lot more to drink than us but continued to serve them instead of us. He mentioned to our server she seems coherent, but refused to serve us. I don't understand the reasoning behind this situation. We most definitely will rethink this location in the future. read more

No AC!!!! Pretty much unbearable to enjoy a meal. Mix that with the stench of a backed up or dirty sewer line in bar, doesn't matte how good the food is or isn't. Should have a sign up warning patrons cause I would've found other eating arrangements. read more

Chuys is my go to TexMexican restaurant. My son gets the chueychonga every time. I also recommend the appetizer sampler. Good food and service. Tables are spread out due to C-19 which I like. Fresh chips and salsa. read more

I used to go to this place all the time, but ever since the surge in customers, I can hardly get inside the restaurant, let alone wait. When I did go there, the salsa was amazing. It has a flavor like no other. Their chicken fajitas are also really good. They come with yummy tortillas and a lot of toppings. The enchiladas and flautas aren't as good. Since fajitas is one of their most popular foods, I don't think they bother to improve their other food. I love the restaurant, but the limited space and many customers make it hard to go (especially on weekends). read more

This is a great place to get some delicious and fairly cheap mexican food. A person can definitely eat for under ten bucks here (assuming you don't get a delicious margarita). Great beef and chicken dishes... haven't tried any fish. Their queso is very very good. Just don't go here on a saturday night. The wait was something like 2 hours, and parking in the Highlands at that time is a nightmare. Plus, their Wed. special is the best! read more

Wow .... Chuys .. The first time I visited chuys I was appauled by the interesting choice of decor. They have a lot going on in there, it appears to be a collectors item garage sale. However it comes off as a fun and exciting place. They keep the place pretty clean and they have great perks for the peak eating times. Such as their free nacho bar that has yummy queso, seasoned beef, beans, and tasty flavorful salsa... Partically the best salsa I have ever had.... This nacho bar is great when it comes down to hungry folks waiting to get a table, because it is open to everybody. My favorite appetizer that I typically order for my entree are the deluxe chicken quesadilla... and I cant seem to ever leave there without ordering their infamous tres leches cake.... woooo doggy.... it is huge and absolutely delicious.... let me get off yelp and make my way that way now....Cause I am craving some Tres Leches :) read more

Awesome food, great waitstaff, fun atmosphere. Hatch green chili time. Burrito loco is excellent. Wait staff is on their game. They say some pets may be welcome.. Stay tuned for further updates read more

Chuy's - Mexican Near Me - Arlington, Texas

Service here is terrible, waited 15min while wait staff saw us but ignored us. Do see how they will stay in business like that. Poor management to say the least. read more

The food was ok and the service was great, but five minutes away we called to go on the waitlist and was told that this Chuy's doesn't have a waitlist. Well much to our surprise there was a waitlist! Get your employees trained properly! There are many more choices within a few steps of this restaurant that are giving correct information to customers. read more

Yesterday was our first time at CHUY'S and it was delicious everything was perfect And fast we will definitely be coming back .

My fav mexican food restaurant. Service is always good and I've been to a lot of locations so it must be company wide. I could absolutely drown myself in the special creamy dip and do so as often as possible! read more

My favorite place!! They have the best salsa and their Chicka-chicka Boom-boom Workers are always polite with the best customer service!

The food was average. The server However,decided that my party had stayed too long and joined us as a subtle hint for us to leave..Don't worry we won't be returning. read more

I love tortilla soup and Chuy's makes a great tortilla soup. Big chunks of chicken and vegetables in a light, salty, spicy broth. It is just the thing for a cold day. I love that they feature a green chile stew, too. It can't touch a true New Mexico green chile stew, but not bad. read more

The atmosphere is great. They have nice patio, bar, seating areas compared with most of the local mexi joints. However, don't expect to find anything authentic on the menu. This is just your typical American style mexi restaurant that you find at any chain. read more

The ambiance was striking. It made me feel like, going home and packing my bags to go back to Cozumel. Spencer was my server, and was very attentive to my needs. I decided on the Enchilada and Taco dinner, which Spencer served expeditiously, nice and hot, and re-filled my drink before even finishing off the previous one. My only complaint was after leaving Chuy's. I found myself back in Arlington instead of Cozumel or Xelha... Spencer thanks for the journey... (As long as it lasted) I will return to this outpost again. read more

See all

The food is way too spicy here. I asked the server if that enchilada dish is spicy because it is Tex Mex and she said not really. Should have known because she also seemed to be in a hurry to take our order. It is noisy on a weeknight. To finish off the meal, our server kept my change when I paid cash. Does she not know how to make change or did she just take it upon herself to keep the change? I should have asked her about it and not just let it go. I won't be back to this Chuy's. The first one I patronized is in the San Antonio area. I was visiting then and my cousin took me there for dinner. That one seemed fine. This Chuy's is in The Highlands and some of the restaurants in this area, along I-20, are not as good as another location of the same company. read more

Chuy's has always been my favorite Tex-Mex restaurant. The environment is high energy, fun, and very colorful. The food is always fresh and delicious and anything you order is guaranteed to be tasty. They work very quickly, and the wait for tables is always less than what they tell you. The food always comes out quickly as well considering they are always busy and I have never not seen them have a full house. Again even so, the wait is never very long. A full house just indicates how popular and amazing this place is! This place will always be an all-time favorite for my family and I. read more

Love the food and good service! I get the chicka chicka boom boom enchiladas and they're really good! Also try the jalapeño cilantro sauce along with salsa when you get chips and salsa it's really good as a dip and just to put on your food! read more

Chuys always does a great job on Togo orders, no surprise there. I would just like to inform the public that the margaritas that are order Togo from Chuys, and all other competitors, aren't what you would buy in store. None include "triple sec", which is a huge ingredient in making a margarita. They do supply their house mix but it's a far cry from their actual product. And now you know. read more

Place is always packed so we decided to give it a try. Nice "old fashioned " decor, love the room filled with old car hub-caps. Not a big fan of salsa and theirs was on the runny side. They do offer a jalapeño ranch dip that is fantastic. Food was average at best. read more

Chuy's is one of favorite Tex-Mex restaurant. I was introduced to this restaurant buy one of my coworkers. And to this day I visit Chuy's at least once a week. The service there is always over the top. The ambiance of it is well aligned with the menu. They offer you complimentary chips and salsa upon your arrival which is usually good, sometimes it is just right and sometimes it is very spicy. My favorite item on the menu is the "big as your face burrito" omg this is one of the most flavorful burritos known to man. I add the Tex-mex topping to it and that just sets it off. In my opinion I think the menu is well priced for what you get and I will continue to frequent this restaurant to fulfill my Tex-mex cravings. read more

First and Foremost I came here on a Saturday and in my opinion you can never judge a restaurant by how they are on the weekends cause if it's a popular restaurant like chuys, they will have a huge crowd on Friday and Saturday nights so I know that's it's very hard catering to customers every need but I was impressed because the wait staffs and chuys were very accommodating. The food was good but I was more amazed at how fast they sat us and got our food prepared. read more

Chip sauce sucks , I get the green sauce for the chips, now that is bad ass . Food is good all the time and big servings . My go to Tex-Mex place. The only draw back is if you eat here and go somewhere after you wreak of Mexican food . read more

We've loved Chuy's for a long time, every location has been great. This location is obviously very well managed. The staff goes above and beyond to make sure your experience is perfect. Everything ran smoothly. The food was delicious as usual. read more

We had 2 adults and a kid. It was kinda crowded, so we had to wait. It didnt take us long to get a seat which was a good. Our waiter was very nice and handsome, lol! We ordered the Chuychunga and a kids chicken strips. The food came out fast and hot! Everything was sooo delicious! The waiter kept our drinks filled. Overall, everything was awesome! I will definitely come back ! read more

If I had the option to give it 0 stars I would!!!!! The food was so gross, it was like it came out of a can from the Great Depression! The music was so loud even yelling couldn't be heard so we ate with absolutely no conversation. The table was old and slanted and wobbled every time someone moved. WAY over priced, Taco Bell has better food and I HATE Taco Bell.....never ever ever again, ever!!!!!!! read more

I was excited to go to Chuy's since I have heard many good stories about this place. My boyfriend and I went to Chuy's on a Friday night, our first mistake. It was so busy and loud that we could barely understand each other without having to yell. There was a wait before we could sit, which is understandable for the time we went. When we finally got to our table we were put in an awkward spot behind a wall and practically forgotten that we were even there. People who arrived after us got food before us. The meal wasn't anything to be ecstatic about. There a better places to go for Mexican food. My experience wasn't impressive and I won't be going back. read more

It's a Saturday evening and restaurants are bursting with folks waiting to be seated; this Arlington Chuy's was no exception. To my surprise, we were seated within 5 minutes because we were a table for two which I took as a good sign. Pulling out my chair, I received a squishy surprise..... warm guacamole covered my fingers. The person that sat us stared. I broke his stare by asking for some napkins which he obliged. Now it seems that everywhere I go, I'm seated at the "invisible" table. It took several minutes to have someone come over for our drink order but we finally flagged our server down. At this point he seemed slightly put out that we'd actually like to go ahead and place our food order because, you know, we'd been sitting there for awhile. The ordering process was confusing to me. Disclosure: I am from Houston and can walk into any Houston Chuy's, place my usual order and not get confused looks. I ordered the #4 with a chicken relleno and classic tex mex enchilada. What about this order is complicated? My server was thoroughly confused. I hoped he could maybe just say this to the kitchen and I'd get just that. We also asked for the creamy jalapeño dip which we had to beg for a second time. To our horror, we each scooped a giant chip full of cilantro sour cream! What the??!!!! Never never have we gotten dip made this way, not even at Austin's Barton Chuy's! By the way, we detest sour cream. Creamy jalapeño is one of the best things about Chuy's and now it's ruined (sad face). Excitement came a few minutes later in the form of exactly what I ordered. Unfortunately the excitement was short lived because my chicken relleno had one, two inch shred of chicken in it.... not exaggerating. I ate everything on my plate but left EXTREMELY grateful that I don't live here because I would hate Chuy's! Maybe it's something in the water which could also explain Cowboys fans. Just kidding (Go Texans!) I forgot to mention that the server came back later and looked at me. I raised my eyebrows and he finally said, I forgot to check your id (we ordered margaritas that tasted like snow cone). I'm here with my 22 year old daughter and look every bit of my 40 something years but sure, it's his job I guess. Headed home to Houston today, probably stop by Chuy's for some take out creamy jalapeño dip! read more

The food and service was really great. Everything got to the table fast and our waiter kept our drinks attended. I enjoyed my experience. Food wasn't badly priced and you get a LOT of food with your plate! Great experience! Will be back for sure! read more

This has become our favorite go-to for Tex-Mex. We don't care for the bland, Jalisco style food. This has tons of flavor. Not a fan of Tex-Mex sauces? Chuy's has several different sauces to choose from. Choice of rice, choice of beans. Something for everyone. The tacos are very crisp and packed full of meat. The salsa was amazing. I knew at first bite it was different. Fresh vegetables every morning. Don't forget to ask for the jalapeno ranch sauce. Oh my goodness, I could drink it. Ask to sit in Rick's section. Even in a hectic lunch crowd you will be well taken care of. JUST GO!!! read more

Meh...just meh...I can't go beyond that it seems. It's very mediocre. The food DOES seems to be made fresh so there's at least that. But there is such an over-saturation of Tex-Mex in the DFW metroplex so there are much better places that are more authentic and more memorable to be frank. Nothing that makes it really special ya know? The only memorable part of this place was their knickknacks and local shirts. They had like these cheesy tshirt I guess they sell on the wall, I think one of them was like Back-To-The-Future and other pop culture reference stuff. If I was a fanatic of this restaurant I'd be so inclined to maybe even wear/buy one. Service was good, price wasn't bad. But again totally middle of the road, for me. If you wanna try some different just for the sake of novelty, go for it. read more

The chicken burrito was excellent. The margarita tastes good along with the beer. I wish they came in a set of 4 instead of 3. lol Even though this place was crowded I was still able to be attended to promptly by my server. Great job. read more

I love Chuy's but when there's a 30+ minute wait and the manager's friend cuts in line dont think we don't all notice. The chicken tomatillo enchilladas are the best. Ask for creamy jalapeno with your chips. Gold star to the blonde hostess who jumped up to wipe damp floor without being asked. read more

My family brought me here for mother's day. It was pretty yummy, but the swirl margaritas are a joke. I drank 2 and just took in sugar :/ Well I'm comparing these magaritas to Glorias margaritas - no comparison. the chips and salsa are amazing and i had enchiladas there. I would def come back but order beer :) read more

Hunter B. was our server. He did a great job...he stayed on top of our drinks and chips. The food was delicious!

Love Chuy's Mexican food. Great food and great service. They can get busy though so pay attention to what time you come.
