Chuy's delivers to our office via Mobile Waiters and let me tell you, I look forward to Chuys day each week! But Chuy's delivers in more ways. Their ingredients, menu offerings, flavors, quality of service are far above and beyond what you'd expect from any Tex-Mex labeled restaurant. The sauces make exploring their menu even more fun; adding a new angle on taste to any burrito or enchilada favorite. Sometimes the menu can be tricky; different menus for delivery had me fall in love with an entree not available on the dinner menu. Luckily, as long as you know what you want, they'll prepare. Dinning in (at the Perimeter) location is a blast. The decor is a refreshing stance on differentiation from other similar cuisine themed restaurants. They have a drink menu that offers both traditional and signature drinks. Their location is also a plus. Plenty of parking in an area close to the shops and malls of the Perimeter area (Ashford-Dunwoody/Hammond/Perimeter). read more

Solid food and decent service. Nothing special and the flavors were not memorable. Not in a hurry and have to have Tex-Mex? Decent choice..

Leaving Chuy's such a low review score is painful, because overall I love this restaurant. But our experience last night was subpar and hopefully not representative of any future dining experiences. We took another couple with us who had never been to Chuy's before. Of 7 total people, the order was wrong on 4. Of those 4, 3 had to be sent back a second time with the exact same errors. The manager was involved who apologized for so many items wrong, twice, but did nothing to fix the issue. When the bill came they did not comp us for anything or any inconvenience. Frustrating Chuy's experience. read more

I've been going to Chuys my whole life. Grew up going to the original Chuys in ATX , moved to Houston for college and went to Chuys there, post college I lived in Birmingham and regularly went to Chuys there. Everywhere I've lived I always went to Chuys for something that reminded me of home. Good reliable Tex Amex. This location in ATL is the first time in my life I've been disappointed in Chuys. The service is mediocre and the food just doesn't quite cut it. It's disappointing because I always counted on Chuys for good Mexican no matter where I was. There's other better options in ATL. read more

Service? What service? I've been to Chuy's in Texas and was really anticipating something great. I am stupid. This is a chain, and the soul of Chuy's fell out on the way here from Austin. The food was actually OK, which isn't saying much because I love it in Texas. But the service was decidedly sub-par. Here's a run down: 1. When we walked and asked the "hostess" if our party was there, she threw her hands in the air and made a face reminiscent of Dee Dee from What's Happening. Now I love classic American sit coms as much as the next guy, but I was really looking for my party. I walked around until I found them. Thank god she pointed her thumbs in opposite directions lest I think they were behind the counter. 2. Silverware? What silverware? Just keep asking. It will eventually show up in these weird sanitized for your protection bags. How many trees must die before we learn to properly wash silverware? HOW MANY I ASK YOU?!! At least they weren't made out of cat skin. 3. There is a time warp and a secret portal in this place. Our waitress would leave the table and walk through a door and disappear for 15 minutes. When we tried to find her (because she didn't hear us, natch) there was NO WAITRESS OR CUSTOMERS BEHIND THE DOOR. After 15 minutes she reappeared and we were able to request plates and silverware for the appetizers. Again. 4. Limes. Now call me crazy, but tequila and limes go together like fat kids and cake, but not here. Order limes and what did we get? A bowl of lemons. A friend orders a drink with lime and what do we get? Lemon. After the waitress returned we were able to rectify the situation. I THINK what she was trying to do was deliver a metaphor on life, but I could be wrong. 5. Club soda is extremely rare and valuable. Tonic water is not. Add limes and vodka and this is a drink our waitress had never heard of. After two tries the bartender actually came out to clarify this fanciful cocktail. 6. The food comes out of the time portal, and it takes a little while. Because assembling different shapes out of the same ingredients takes considerable time. I'm not sure how you feel about Taco Bell, but they can make most items on the menu in under 30 seconds. Takes a good 30 minutes here. Agian, I blame the time portal. I totally blame myself. My expectations were too high. I allowed myself to be led down the primrose path of dreams and completely deserve what I got. But I also enjoy the dentist, so your mileage may vary. read more

... and just like that, Chuy's stepped in and won our hearts and out stomachs too. One visit a week in the last three weeks should tell you that Chuy's is the real deal! One thing I love about Mexican restaurants is the effort that goes into decorating the place. You're almost as a kid in a toy store, because at every corner something bright and colorful is bound to get your attention, stepping in the door at Chuy's had this effect on me. As we were whisked away to a corner booth in the dining area I continued to scan the perimeter of this place. The pretty pink walls quickly grab your attention, as they are plastered with interesting pictures and paintings, captioned 'en espanol' about the stories they depict. Adding to the decor, the outside patio is covered under a thatched roof, synonymous to some ancient Mexican architectural style. Skip ordering an appetizer! The first thing that reels you in is their complimentary, freshly baked chips and salsa. We requested 2 additional dips, Ranchero and Queso. My personal favorite was the ranchero, until I discovered that mixing the ranchero and salsa can alter your 'chip eating experience' forever, try it! Our waiter had to refill since those chips seem to be disappearing faster than hot cross buns on Good Friday. Stuff we ordered during our last 3 visits; - Chicka-Chicka Boom-Boom, the boom boom sauce has the magic taste. I understand why it's a house favorite, had this twice. - Steak Burrito: tender, tasty steak. If you don't like spicy stay away from this one, if you do it's pure heaven. - Chalupa & Enchilada, you'll clean your plate. - Crispy Tacos, nothing great but tasty. - The King's Punch (you'll feel like royalty when you drink this one) and Frozen lime margarita topped with a 7oz Coronita. Unbeatable taste, I could tell the food was freshly prepared. Hooked? Yes! I need to lay off for a while but, I'll be back Chuy's! Menu 5/5 Service 5/5 Taste 5/5 Location 5/5 read more

Yaaaay another tasty Mexican place for me and my fat appetite! Everyone automatically gets chips, salsa and creamy jalapeno ranch dip. The salsa was not my fave but the ranch creation was tasty and unique. We ordered a half size queso to accompany the chips. It was delicious too! I ordered the Chicka-Chika Boom Boom enchillada and my hubby, the steak burrito. His steak was so tender and full of flavor. Mine was pretty darn good as well. The refried beans were actually impressive! They were nicely textured and had a great base of taste. I waddled away from my table like I was carrying a food baby and decided this food coma was soooo worth every calorie! read more

The foodie douchebag in me reviles this place with its cheese on everything and TexMex Wrecks in Effects. It's the stuff of Fieri-induced nightmares and anathema to my newly imposed "Stop being such a fatass, oh and the dying early thing might suck too" diet. And then there's the other side of me. There's the side of me that MADE me this fatass. The side of me that will eat anything if it were covered in sawmill gravy. The foodie douchebag side of me views "cheese" more as more of an adjective; this side of me definitely thinks of it as a noun. That said, as bifurcated as they are, both sides are pretty accurate in their observations. Let's talk facts: the portions are huge. They tout it on their menu, with a burrito "as big as yo' face." I know many a large-headed individual and indeed, Chuy's burritos fit the bill. They also tout their sauces, hatch chilis here, tomatillos there. They're not going to win any originality awards, but it was all fine. In my few visits, I've had tacos, the chile relleno, and the "Chicka Chicka Boom-Boom," a cheese enrobed lactose monster if every there was one. Again, I was never really blown away by anything, but not offended. Hell,there's plenty of it though. (The chips, however, are pretty good.) Is the food better than On the Border? Probably, but that's like being the tallest midget in a room. But the portions are big and the food isn't too challenging. With all the bright and shiny objects, the gaudy space will appeal to youngsters and most OTPers. I'm wavering on 3.5 stars, but will round down if only because of the annoying flash-driven website. read more

Tracy was an amazing server! She was so attentive and made sure we received everything we wanted and some! She truly went out of her way to let us sample things to make sure we would love it. I definitely recommend this place. Go check it out and request Tracy as your server! read more

Honestly, I don't like Mexican food.. but this place.. I really enjoyed their steak burrito and their salsa and chips.. YUM! Plus, my siblings, Crystal and Charlie H love Mexican food. I also wanted to try out a new place and this was the place! STEAK BURRITO ($11.29) - it's served with your choice of mexican rice/green chile rice and refried/charro beans Salsa and chips also served with some ranch dipping sauce. The ranch sauce tasted like it was homemade. The salsa.. was good but spicy for me.. still good, though. The chips were very thin and not that salty! Just the way I like them to be! I ordered mine with the green chile rice and it wasn't that bad.. but the charro beans!? Ew.. it was WAY too salty! It tasted like they accidentally or purposely poured a whole bunch of salt in those beans! Never again will I order my steak burrito with CHARRO BEANS!!! My waiter, Therone was really helpful and very friendly! Kudos for him! Oh.. I'll definitely come back! read more

Went here for lunch today it was my first time here. Sat at the bar and waited for the bartender that was taking care of the tables in that area to greet me. Once she came by she got a drink order and some chips. Well that is all I got here today. She never came back. She was too busy waiting on the tables in the bar area. If you are in a hurry, don't come here. read more

Cheese dip served out of the back of a fake car might be your thing, but I much prefer mine delivered to my table in a small, white dish with jalapeños on top. Just sayin. I'd heard a lot of hype about this Chuy's place so when my friend suggested it I readily agreed. I was disappointed. Our server was so totally bored that she checked on us ever 4 seconds, seemingly hoping we would just leave. I'm *never* unfriendly to underpaid, overworked people, but this chick was so damn annoying I may or may not have been an ass at times. My bad. The decor is cheesy. Fish everywhere. The back-of-car nacho bar is ridiculous. I'd rather order *good* cheese dip. If I were only drinking I may have been less critical. Maybe I should have had more to drink that day. read more

Update 9/17: Been a few times recently to have lunch at the bar by myself. Mainly cause I do love their chips & jalapeño ranch dip, and their enchiladas. Service has been consistently good recently. So bumping up from 2 to 3 Stars, and a couple more good consistent meals and I'm thinking 4 Stars. Perhaps Management has changed or they got the message on service and made adjustments. Good for them. This place is all over the map on service. I have had everything from excellent to awful service here. I continue to go because I love their food. The jalapeño ranch for the chips to dip is awesome! The nacho bar at happy hour is a wonderful free treat. I'm a fan of their TexMex enchiladas. It really is solid TexMex. Of the TexMex chains, the food is typically the best. But I don't think this location is very well run, hence the 2 stars. Like I said in the opening, the service is inconsistent. There is a bartender that served me on two separate times that was flat out rude. I wish I had gotten his name. The last time I went for lunch my plan was to sit at the bar, but to leave if this young punk was working. Since he wasn't there, I had a good experience. The last time I went for dinner it was me, my wife, and my wife's friend. One of us had to send our food back because it wasn't right, and it still wasn't right the second time so we dealt with it. My drink took at least 10-15 minutes to get, and I had to chase down the waitress to get a second drink. I really hope this place gets it together so I can enjoy the food on occasion, but I am one more bad experience away from putting it on my "never again" list. read more

I couldn't possibly say enough good things about this place. I don't even care for tequila but will always get a couple margaritas at Chuy's because They. Are. That. Good. I typically go for the lime/strawberry swirl since the lime alone is too tart for my liking. Make sure you get the Creamy Jalapeno to go with your house-made chips (or whatever else you want to drown in it). My go-to dish here is the custom enchiladas with 1 cheese and 1 ground sirloin with the deluxe tomatillo sauce, which is super creamy and has zero spiciness to it. Oh, and don't forget to purchase their home-made tortillas to take home with you! read more

There's not a time that I HAVEN'T left here without a food baby. I typically rotate around several dishes, but I simply can't veer away from my superstar lineup: Fajitas, Panchos, and the Big as Yo' Face burritos. The fact that I can rotate amongst those three dishes should tell you how often I eat here. I have no shame for that. The fajitas are simply some of the best. The steak always comes out so well cooked, that you'd be hard pressed to find more tender, flavorful meat on your prideful uncle's grill. I typically get steak, but chicken is a solid move as well. If you're feeling wild and crazy, get both! Whoa! I like to think of the Panchos as a grown man's version of nachos. I also happen to think that they have mis-categorized them as an appetizer, as they are too good to share with others. Panchos are halved flour tortillas, deep fried, and smothered with cheese, beans, guac, onions, jalapeños, and your choice of meat. Again, I typically go steak here. The Big as Yo' Face burrito is, well....... Big as your face. I'm no Hannibal Lecter, so I'll go out on a limb here and say they're probably more delicious than your face as well. Hello, Clarice. We all come to expect chips and salsa when we walk into any Mexican/Tex-Mex restaurant. We're all Pavlov dogs, expecting to chow down on corny morsels dipped in salsa. That said, not only do you get chips and salsa here, but if you wink at your waiter/waitress, they'll bring you some creamy jalapeño dip! You don't have to actually wink at them to earn it, but I'd recommend it. Jalapeño dip is a game-changer, and enhances your entree ten-fold. You don't have to thank me, but you're welcome! See you at Chuy's! read more

I LOVE CHUY'S. Enough said. Okay, not really, since I hope to remain a Yelp Elite member for 2014 & beyond, ha. Seriously though, Chuy's is great. This particular location hasn't been around very long, but the quality of the food and service is consistent with my experiences in the Dallas/Fort Worth area, where I believe the chain originated. The restaurant provides lots to take in - unique decor and bright colors - overall, a pretty fun environment. The food is great - my favorite is the taco salad (beans instead of meat, of course!) The taco salad shell is better than most places - more flavorful and less greasy. They also have a unique jalapeno dipping sauce for the tortilla chips or to be used as a salad dressing. In addition, their tortilla chips are perfection - thin, crispy, not too greasy, & salted just right. My other half is a carnivore and has been happy with all of his choices, ranging from burritos to fajitas. The people at Chuy's are friendly - I've never had a bad host or waiter. I convinced my boyfriend to try this place back in August and it has been our go-to for Mexican food ever since. Oh, and the bill never hurts too much either, which is a nice bonus! read more

Here's the thing. I am the first to admit that I can judge a restaurant a little too harshly based on it's service, atmosphere and quality. Mostly because I work in one of the finest restaurants in Atlanta. But because I work in a restaurant I am well aware of when a restaurant is just having an off night. This was not the case here. We were quoted 20 minutes to sit down. The 12 other parties that came after us were also quoted 20 minutes. The hostess was working with the highly advanced dining system: notebook paper and a pink highlighter. We were, of course, looked over. A party of 5 that came in 30 minutes after us got seated almost instantaneously. So quickly in fact, that the matron of the family exclaimed "Already?!" when she returned her buzzing coaster to the hostess stand. When we were seated after 45 minutes of waiting and no apologies, our waiter appeared to explain that he would, basically, be horrible at his job because his ankle was sprained. He took our order and hobbled away. Now the food was good. It was really good. It just came out at a snail's pace. Eventually, our waiter came back, asked us if we needed to-go boxes, we said 4. And then we had a weird lecture about how it's a health code violation for a server to box up your left overs for you. Apparently, even at a really fancy restaurant, if they box it up for you, you shouldn't trust them. As an employee of a restaurant run to an almost neurotic perfection (We fired a guy for dropping sauce on a patron. Like a drop.) and we DO box up leftovers for our guests, I would guess that this health code violation the server was so concerned about is Code Lazy. I have never seen so many people leave a restaurant so discouraged looking. Everyone probably was happy with what they ate, but sad with how they were forced to eat it. If I ever decide I need Chuy's in my life again, it'll be to-go. But they need to be aware of the fact that Dunwoody is really good at killing mediocre restaurants, so they need to step it up. (If you want this place to survive, let's all chip in and buy them an Open Table system. I'll start a pay pal) read more

Awesome casual spot. Bartender (Tracy I believe) was extremely friendly and loved some Chuy's and knew the whole backstory on the place since inception and it's theme. Will def be back while I'm here on Workatation. read more

Chuy's - Mexican Near Me - Atlanta, Georgia

Pheeew, oh boy... Chuy's. Obnoxiously garish colors and kitschy décor. I'm still not sure what to make of this place. When done right, Tex-Mex can proudly be held as its own distinct regional cuisine. When done poorly, it's bastardized slop that neither Mexican or Texan would claim. Taken those two extremes, I find that Chuy's falls somewhere in the middle. Nothing that I ate here amazed me, but none of it was bad either - whether that be the Big as Yo' Face Burrito (I chose fajita chicken), the Queso Compuesto dip (chile con queso with seasoned ground sirloin, guacamole, and pico de gallo), or the Deluxe Chicken Enchiladas. The salsa was typical but fresh, as was the guacamole. I will offer a small tip of the hat for the view through the glass window into the tortilla-making station. Always good to know that when a restaurant can, they do make things on site from scratch. I also liked the option to choose the sauce that goes over the enchiladas. Credit is also due for the speedy arrival of our food orders to the table on piping hot plates. I'm still on the lookout for excellent Tex-Mex restaurants in and around the Atlanta area. While decent, Chuy's didn't really satisfy the Tex-Mex craving as I'd hoped it would. read more

Chuy's, Chuy's, Chuy's, what is going ON? You have been my family's favorite TexMex place for YEARS. I have loved you for as long as I can remember. I have had many dreams of the next time I would visit you. And then you gave me Atlanta Chuy's. This was such a gross disappointment that it pains me to even have to write this review. The night started out promising. Went in, seated immediately (the place was EMPTY), got some chips and salsa and then ordered some queso. Yummy! The chips were light and crispy and the queso was oh so cheesy. The salsa obviously never disappoints. But that was the end of that glorious food reverie. The server was attentive AT FIRST. We ordered our drinks, which we got sort of in a timely matter, kind of. I mean, had the restaurant been packed the time it took would have been more appropriate, but whatever. We were ready to order and I got the nachos from the appetizer menu with fresh serrano peppers. My friend got the beef fajita burrito. I didn't pay much attention to his, but he didn't finish it at all. My nachos were so dry I thought I was going to choke to death on them. They were made up of a chip layered with beans and cheese then peppers and a side of lettuce and tomato. I don't believe I have anything in my memory store that reminds me of anything this dry, except the desert of Vegas that I live in. I ate three and had to stop. The plate was practically full of nachos when I left it, sadly. Please forgive my bluntness, but the waiter sucked. Oh wow. He was so bad. Let me remind you that this place was a ghost town. While I'm choking on my horrible nachos, my margarita glass is empty, we weren't offered water so that was out, I had to get a different waiter to get me a soda because our fabulous waiter was too busy watching TV to notice that his customer was about to need CPR. Friendly and attentive! Just kidding! He ignored us practically the whole night. He also never once asked why we were leaving $20 worth of food untouched. Terrible. I'm sad and disappointed. I don't get back to my home state of Texas very often so to have found a Chuy's so close and to be so disappointed was just heartbreaking. I hope I can forgive you someday, CHUY'S. read more

Excellent food, great service and very clean! Ceph and Kevin were outstanding and may I recommend sitting outside in the tiki hut.

They get 2 stars for the fun decorations. The food was horrible! First, we were greeted with some chips and salsa ... and man.. the salsa was the worst salsa I've ever had. It was a combination of salty, sour, and a weird blandness. It tasted like they just bought some canned tomatoes and threw in salt, squeezed some lime, and mixed in chopped cilantro. As for the entrees...my sister ordered the Tortilla Soup and a side of rice and beans. The soup tasted like chicken broth with a bunch of random things thrown in, . The rice and beans was probably the most decent thing I ate there. I ordered the #1 Combination plate. The plate was a good deal. It came with rice and beans, guac, 2 big chips dipped in cheese, 2 enchiladas, 2 taquitos, and a taco. However, it was the worst Mexican plate ever! The server told me that it's a little different because it's TexMex. Well, I don't know what exactly she meant... but that was suppose to be Mexican food on my plate and it wasn't even decent enough for me to pack in a box to go. Oh.. I almost forgot.... They didn't have any type of hot sauce except for Tabasco! What??? Really??? read more

Chuy's is one of my favorite restaurants in Texas for it's Tex-Mex food. I am glad to see them branching out into other parts of the nation since Tex-Mex food is a favorite cuisine. I got married in Atlanta in August 2013 and wanted some hometown food catered for a lunch. I spoke with Susan (catering manager) a few weeks leading up to the event and I have to say, she was very helpful in helping decide how much food to order and what to order! It was all very easy and she even handled us making a few changes along the way leading up to the event. Fast forward to the event and everything went great. The food was fresh and delicious. I would recommend using Chuy's for any catering event. It's the best Tex-Mex in Atlanta by far and definitely reach out to Susan! Regarding the food, there are three can't miss items here: Boom boom sauce, Green chile rice and the fresh margaritas! read more

Short Review: 2 stars for service, slow and spotty 4 stars for food, Chille Rellno y'all 5 stars for decor/atmosphere, Long Review: After seeing how long the line was for Tin Lizzy's my group of five went right across the street to Chuy's at around 8:30. There were empty tables everywhere, but they gave us a wait time of 25 minutes, probably because they were incredibly short-staffed (I'll get into that later). We were seated outside at 9pm and our server took our drink orders. We got our utensils in a little paper sack, but did receive any napkins, so that was awkward. Our server gave us our complimentary chips with salsa and ranch dip and then was gone for long periods of time, juggling at least 3 other tables on the patio. Not her fault, just the way the restaurant was. Margaritas came out after 20 minutes. My mango margarita was delicious and decently portioned, not supersized like other restaurants. Food came out at about 10pm. I ordered the Chile Relleno with chicken, it was sooo good y'all, like the combination was heaven! It came with 2 fried chiles stuffed with pulled chicken and cheese. Refried beans and rice were the sides. Just enough food to feel stuffed, but not overstuffed. Took another 30 minutes to get the check. Despite the subpar service, I loved the atmosphere and food and would try it again. read more

This place really put me in for a surprise. I was amazed when I got out of my car. The patio was filled with party-ers. There was live music and everyone was having a good time. We walked in and BAM there was so much too look at. I was amazed. It was awesome. We were greeted by this awkward straight line man who was apparently the hostess. He sat us without a word. Hmm.. I thought that was kind of weird seeing that this is a fun looking place they employees should reperesnt some kind of excitement as well. We ordered Fajitas. Hmm. The steak was rubber like and thats my only complaint about the food. The service was just okay. We were taken care of if we needed anything. But the best part would have to be the restaurant itself! I don't know if I would come back here to satisfy my Mexican food craving but I would come back to have a good time with live music and drinks. I did see they also have a full bar. FUN FACT- Our waiter told us that the fish hanging on the ceiling when you first walk in were made by a homeless man. The Owners of Chuy's paid him 100$ a fish and these fish are in all of Chuy's Locations. read more

Maybe it's b/c we came close to closing time on a sunday night, but was not impressed with this place. I prefer real Mexican food over TexMex anyways, but I've also had better TexMex at chains like "On the Border". I ordered the baja fish tacos and it was just too dry (the best fish tacos in town are at "Twist"). and the cilantro rice as they called it had no cilantro. the salsa could've been more tasty and less chuncky too. If you want great Mexican, I still say head over to Buford Hwy-get the real stuff! I give them 5 stars on decor though, just can't on the food. read more

EVERY time I go to Chuys the food is great! I usually order to go since I work in the area so I am not very sure about the level of service from the actual servers. Whenever I call in the person seems quite chipper lol. I suppose that counts for something. I will continue to get food here. Its not exactly traditional Mexican (thats pretty common around Atlanta) so its uniqueness makes it even better! Oh yea, get the "Big as Yo Face Burrito" with Boom Boom Sauce! You'll love it! read more

Last two takeout orders have been great - quality has noticeably increased as staffing issues improve and more customers return. Today we went at lunch to eat in, and I was so happy to see some of the old favorites back on the menu. In fact, I gave five stars because my Chuys experience well before the pandemic had been deteriorating, but currently it is wonderful, with great food. Now if only the location close to my house would open back up, but I guess that one is gone forever. read more

I was able to attend the VIP soft opening of Chuy's at Perimeter with my friend, Heather S., and my date through a Facebook invite. I've been waiting for an amazing Tex-Mex or Mex-Mex restaurant in the area, as I miss the food dearly from a little spot back home. Chuy's did not disappoint. Their creamy jalapeno dip truly deserves it's legendary status, and they don't dial down on flavor. The salsa was spicy but not just hot--It had a great blend of flavors that made it something special. I ordered the chile relleno, which was SPICY (expect pepper seeds in the dish, which add bursts of heat). At first I was disappointed, because the sirloin chile relleno did not also have cheese (I'm kind of a cheese fanatic) but the flavor was so great that I could see why it didn't need it. My date ordered the big as yo' face burrito with Boom Boom sauce, which I highly recommend. The burrito truly was MASSIVE, and totally delicious. Both he and I (and Heather S) enjoyed their lime margaritas---This puts other house margaritas to shame, as it is one tasty beverage and anything but average. Needless to say, we will be returning to Chuy's in the near future, and many times after that. read more

A refreshingly fun and delightful place to eat and celebrate. Fresh food and large variety of delectable sauces and excellent service. Wonderful!! The management and staff seem genuinely dedicated to the customer base. I have gluten allergies and they worked with me on the menu, knew the sauces that I could eat and fried my chips in a seperate pan. The swirl and dot margaritas are great and only $5.95 full price ( $4 happy hour ). The Chicka Chicka Boom Boom enchiladas were to die for! I will be back soon. read more

I am giving this particular Chuy's 5 stars exclusively for our server Tracy. They closed 9pm and we arrived at 8:40p. We don't normally do this but family just arrived in town and we were desperate for food. Anyway, two of us walked in and there were all smiles. When I informed the hostess that there was 5 of us, smiles dropped and we got this awful look at "I just want to let you know we do close in 20 min." To which I asked "okay? Does the kitchen close soon?." The answer was no. So I wasn't sure why would you say that if it wasn't going to impact service. Anyway, slightly irritated. Our waitress, Tracy, came over with so much energy and seemed genuinely happy to serve us. She was hands down the best server we have ever had. She was attentive, so kind and nice. Complete 180 from our initial experience. She 100% made our Chuy's experience better! Thank you so much, Tracy! You deserve all the good things! #TeamTracy! read more

I've been to Chuy's 3 times since the soft opening so I will include pertinent info about all those visits. Before Chuy's to came to Atlanta, I would always get the same thing when I visited locations in Texas, the comida deluxe. Now, since I won't have to go out of my way to get Chuy's I'm going to branch out (although I did have to get the comida deluxe for old times sake on one of my visits). Comida Deluxe- Amazing. Everything is fresh, seasoned just right and overall, fantastic. Fajitas- Marinated in Shiner Bock? Yes please! The flavor was unlike any other fajitas I've ever had. They were cooked perfectly and you get everything you could ever want with them. The pico de gallo was fantastic, the guac is amazing as always. Flautas- I got these at a training lunch before the opening. They told us what to order and this was what was randomly selected for me. The filling was perfectly seasoned and they were perfectly cooked. As usual, everything is ridiculously fresh and also ridiculously delicious. Don't forget about the nacho bar during happy hour on Fridays! read more

Great experience recently at this Chuys. Our waiter, Steven M., was just fantastic. He really cared about making us happy, and was great about anticipating what my two daughters wanted and needed. He was friendly and helpful, and made our evening wonderful. Thanks so much, Steven! We'll be back! read more

Chuy's had set up a booth in front of our apartment complex with information and samples. With all the hubbub and the positive reviews piling up on yelp we just had to check out the new local spot for ourselves. Stopping by on a random Tuesday afternoon for a late lunch, the parking lot was surprisingly crowded. The restaurant is very ...colorful, which was a nice detail on the otherwise gloomy day. We were seated promptly and our very energetic waitress came by to introduce herself and explain the very extensive menu (we must have had pretty lost expressions on our faces). Off of our waitress' recommendations we got the creamy jalapeño dip and an order of guac to go with our endless chip basket while we mulled over the menu some more (so many choices!). The dip was not as spicy as our waitress had led us to believe but it was def tasty. After much indecisiveness, I finally went with the Comida Deluxe, as the waitress pointed out - it's got a little bit of everything. The portions were massive, and I had plenty of left-overs for the next 2-3 meals! The food was fresh and delish and made me believe that Texans really do know their tex-mex. The food was solid and I'll def be back to try the rest of the menu (not to mention the extensive drink list). read more

Went to Chuy's for the first time a couple nights ago. Overall, it was good - I'll go back. The salsa is outstanding, and rice (of all things) was fantastic. Definitely the best rice I've ever had at a mexican restaurant. I had the Steak Burrito - it was fairly good, but I probably wouldn't order it again. The sauce was extremely salty (tasted like it had been probably made that morning and sat in a heated vat all day so it reduced down and got very concentrated). The steak was tasty, but the burrito was much more tortilla than meat. In fact, my first two bites had no meat whatsoever. The little lady had the taco salad, which looked pretty standard (freshly fried shell is a plus), and she said it was. I also had some kind of mexican martini (forget what they called it) that had tequila and Cointreau. A very good drink, and they give you about 3 martini glasses worth. Service was good, but rather clinical - our server seemed to be on autopilot. But she was on the ball, so I can't complain. read more

Love the fresh tortillas. Food is always great. The salsa is amazing. My favorite Tex mex around.

I stumbled across this restaurant and so glad I did! I absolutely LOVE Mexican food and this place didn't disappoint at all! Very authentic food and the decor was very unique. The tacos was so bomb and definitely filling with the side of beans. The establishment entrance is near the back, away from the street, which might be reasons why I've missed it before. Ample parking is available also. Haven't had drinks yet but plan on trying some once I come back! read more

Sad day. I looked forward to a Friday night at Chuy's all week: green chiles, mexican martinis, and good music. I'm sad to report I only got the good music. My mexican martini? A margarita in a martini glass. My green chile carnitas? A special you can only get on Mondays. Our waitress? I couldn't quite tell if she was simply rude as all get out, apathetic, or perhaps, medicinally impaired. Regardless, service was sloooooooooooow, words were slurred, impatience was displayed, and of course, items forgotten (hell, even our entire table of 6 was forgotten). An excellent example? I inquired as to the difference was between the Mexican and Texan martinis. Answer? "Probably the ingredients..." and she turned on her heel and walked away. Seriously. My food was fine but not the green chile heaven I was hoping for. Its sitting in my stomach like a rock as I write this. Boo. And an 18% gratuity charge for 6 people? I guess that's why the waitress could afford to act like such a jerk... All in all, I would return to Chuy's, but only on a Monday to try the carnitas and only if I can be assured that our waitress will not come near our table. Otherwise, I'll see you at Taqueria del Sol or somewhere on Buford Highway. read more
