All I ordered was 2 small tortilla soups. When I got the order home I found they hadn't included the flour tortillas and there was no corn in the soup. Sad! read more

I've been to Chuy's many times throughout the years but their food as been even better the past couple times! I order their chicken enchiladas and they are a 10/10! It comes with sour cream inside the enchilada and it brings out the flavor of the sauce so well. Service was amazing, they kept our chips refilled the whole time. read more

Chuy's - chicken enchilada - Tex-Mex Near Me - Austin, Texas

Family friendly Tex-Mex restaurant. Came on a weekday night around 7:30pm and there was about a 30 minute wait. There were plenty of places to sit while we waited and once our table was ready the service and food was spot on. Our waitress was friendly and attentive, and the chips and salsa were amazing! Our food took about 20 minutes to come out since it was so busy, but we got an extra serving of chips while we waited. Food portions were good and we ended up taking leftovers home. Looking forward to coming back here on my next trip to Austin! read more

Service was not great and neither was the food smh we barely seen our waitress she was rude and just ignored me didn't offer to fill my drink or nothing not the best chuys. read more

I recently came to Chuy's with my sister and we had a wonderful experience with both the location and our food. Unfortunately I was not able to note the name of our server, however she was fabulous and was able to help us determine or drinks as we were initially torn between two options. We were seated in a booth (our choice) promptly after arriving and were greeted by our server shortly thereafter. The room was decorated with portraits and it was very entertaining to look around as we waited for our food. The server checked in with us regularly to ensure the food was to our taste and see if we needed anything else, and the only time it was harder to track her down was when we were ready to pay as the crowd seemed to hit right at that time and she was busy at other tables which was no issue. 10/10 I ordered the combo fajitas with chicken and shrimp on corn tortilla (pictured) and while the shrimp was fairly average, the chicken was very good! My sister ordered a beef/shrimp combo and also found the beef to be excellent! We ordered the queso as an appetizer and very much enjoyed it as we waited for our meals. The strawberry mojito was very tasty and is definitely worth trying as it was packed with flavor! I wouldn't say it had a super high alcohol content, however the flavor was great and it's a very enjoyable beverage. 9/10 Overall, the food here is pretty decent and my sister and I both look forward to dining here again! read more

Chuy's is definitely a staple in the South Austin diet! So cool that they have expanded to the airport and many other hipster locations around the country. Looks like America is buying what Chuy's is selling . The margaritas, enchiladas, Elvis fried Chicken, Baja tacos and an absolute amazing jalapeno sauce to go with everything and add the exact amount of spice that you like.... With a side of Tang :-) This is my favorite location and the interior design is just off the charts! You have to check it out today :-) read more

I love this chuys location! If you are visiting or live in austin you NEED TO go here. The servers are friendly. I've always had good takeout experiences too. I almost always order the shrimp tacos, and every once and a while I get a Chuychanga. The shrimp tacos are seriously underrated and I wish they had more shrimp dishes honestly. I love the decor inside too. It's colorful and vibrant and weird. I haven't eaten outdoors but it the patio is nice too. I think this location is bigger than the one on Barton springs. read more

Chuy's - Outside of chuys - Tex-Mex Near Me - Austin, Texas

This Chuy's is likely a go by for all the other ones. We got some old pico de gallo and a bunch of salty fatty chips. The drinks are served in colored plastic glasses. The food is quite frankly inferior to a Chipotle salad or burrito bowl. The tortilla soup was more like a watery caldo with all the ingredients dumped in. It was quite unappetizing. Looking around the dining room we were in we noticed many of the patrons were having a frozen margarit with their lunch. Apparently you can get a cheap frozen margaritas at chuy's. The salads were limp and sad. Our grandaughter had the childs cheese quesadilla and she didn't eat much of it. The chips were the main draw for her. My waitress was very nice if not particularly interesting or presented well. Cheap clothing, overweight. So, apparently chuys has a loyal following of people who are willing to pay way too much for rubbishy tex mex mush and old salad on a plate. Not good. And for 2 adults and a child drinking water plus their meals the bill was $50 plus with the tip. No thanks. Greasy Formica experience. read more

We went here Friday and the best way to ensure a short wait is to join the wait list it's easy and efficient. We arrived and were seated quickly service was fast and efficient. The margaritas were amazing tasty ample and perfect. We had the Elvis meal and chicken and it was excellent all tasty and a good variety of food. read more

Curb side service is absolutely horrible. I stopped ordering curbside a couple of years ago. Decided to give them another shot. Ordered at 6pm with pick up scheduled for 6:17pm. Responded on the app at 6:17 to give them my parking spot. 15 minutes later, still waiting, I called. I was told my order was up next and it would be right out. 20 minutes later, still waiting. I called back. Managers not available. Order still not ready. Now, 10 minutes later I'm still waiting. If I hadn't paid for my order in advance, I would have left... so very annoying. Wish I could take back my tip too! read more

I just left the new Chuy's location S IH35 location. Ordered the microwaved plates of chicken enchiladas and shrimp tacos. Plates were hot...food was cold or barely luke warm. The alarm bell should sounded in my head when they told me they only serve one kind of beans (refried). A waste of time and money. Zero effort in presentation. If they put a llittle sauce on top of SOMETHING on the plate they might be able to pass it off as TexMex.. at least until you bite into it. read more

We went to Chuys for happy hour but ordered food as well. The portions were good, the food was fresh and the drinks were great! It was a great place to meet up for a quick happy hour before heading home. read more

Hey y'all. I've been coming to this Chuy's location for years. Even participated in the Chuy's 5K back in the day at Arbor Trails/Walk.

First visit. I know, we've lived here for over 6 years now, and just checked out this restaurant. We chose to visit the Chuy's on 4301 W. William Cannon Drive in South Austin. It is located near Costco. The restaurant has lots to see when you enter - a room decorated with hub caps on the roof, a variety of pictures depicted various people - even what I called a "spanish version of a Picasso" wall. We were seated quickly in a booth and our server immediately asked about drinks. While we were waiting we perused the menu and decided on a bean and cheese burrito and a double chicken enchilada. Well, bring your appetite because both were large servings! The menu actually calls the burrito "As big as yo face", and they don't lie! Matter of fact, we had to ask for a box to bring them home. Both of these came with an amazing Deluxe Tomatillo Sauce blended with sour cream, fresh herbs, cilantro & spices. Both meals were excellent. If you are looking for a good mexican restaurant at good prices, definitely consider Chuy's. We'll be back. read more

Chuy's - Tex-Mex Near Me - Austin, Texas

The food is mid. Not very flavorful. Tastes like a microwaved meal. You can eat it but there's way tastier TexMex literally around any corner. I been here 2x. The only reason I went the 2nd time was to give it another chance. But now I don't care to go back. It's over crowded and loud for mediocre food. I mean others seemed to like it but me and the group of 5 I went with wouldn't really recommend it. For some reason the other Chuy's location is a bit better. This one read more

I love love love love the food here it's very very good, but getting a to-go order is a nightmare

It's Chuy's. It was pretty good once upon a time but seems to have outgrown its roots. Ordered chicken enchiladas with hatch green chili sauce. Hot plate. Cold chicken. Hardly any sauce or cheese. Stale tortillas. Sent it back. Passive aggressive cook dumped a cup of sauce and half a pound of cheese on the plate. Sent it back and took my marg to go... read more

I have a to give props to Emily the general manager for her fast thinking and going through a lot to put a table together for my family and friends to enjoy and to celebrate my birthday, she did a fantastic job. Not happy with the staff or the host who added more stress to the situation instead of trying to de-escalate. They added more stress by saying things that were certainly untrue. I will visit again but definitely will take my celebration to another venue next year and I'm grateful that not everyone I invited was able to come it would not been a nice needing, but Glad my family and friends had a great time. read more

I love all Chuy's food. Unfortunately today and a few previous experiences here have prompted me to write a review for poor quality control. Called in an order, food was ready 30 mins last promised time and it was incorrect. Missing an appetizer and a dessert. And the fajitas were missing creamy jalapeño. Super underwhelming and they were way too busy to service the customers at takeout. Will have to switch to a different location. read more

This place needs an overhaul, refresh, something. The plating of the food has no pizzazz & there is better tex-mex out there. I'll sum it up in one word...yawn. read more

Classic Austin restaurant that we've been going to for a long time. You got to start out with the ponchos a perfect mix of fajita beef guacamole and nachos. We also like the creamy jalapeno dip for the nachos. On Saturday morning tortilla soup will give you a nice warm up and has that classic Mexican taste. Some of the house specialties that we love are the chuychanga and the steak burrito. This location has an impeccable interior design with tons of style and taste and Tex-Mex flavor. You have to go and sit in the parlor and have a margarita and just enjoy the ambience! read more

Thursday I had lunch with a friend a the bar. Everything was fine until we saw a large 2.5" cockroach skittering along the wall/ceiling at above the bar the crawl down the wall and go behind a sign (right side of the bar). The check had already come and the bartender walked by but we weren't able to get her attention. We only finished 1/2 our meal. I did tell the male bartender but he seemed unaffected by the news. As we left, I shared the information with the hostess who said she would tell the manager. No apology, no shock by any staff I spoke with. The bar is open next tot he kitchen. A bit too close for my comfort. The food was fine and our female bartender was friendly and kind but the cockroach ruined the whole experience for both my friend and I. She couldn't get out of there fast enough. read more

Chuy's - Entrance to the restaurant - Tex-Mex Near Me - Austin, Texas

Today my partner brought home Chuy's "CHICKA-CHICKA BOOM-BOOM" for my lunch. Wowie...the salt content in their food is off the charts. I could not finish it. Ended up tossing it away. I had not eaten at a Chuy's in years because the last time I was in their William Cannon restaurant, I found a piece of steel sponge in my beans. It was about the size of a dime. Yes..the kind they use for scouring pans. Lucky for me I did not swallow it. I can only imagine the damage is would have done to my esophagus or any part of my digestive system. I reported it to the manager who was very apologetic. They told me to ask for them the next time and would take care of us. It should have never happened. This kind of lack of quality control could have made my day really bad and for my family. I am aware that Chuy's has been operating in Austin since 1982 feeding many satisfied customers. There was a time I really enjoyed going there. But no more. I know if they had their food tested for the salt content, it might help change the way they salt the food. I doubt this review will even make a difference. But the meal I got today brought back the memories of that incident years ago. Many of their customers are young people that can tolerant this amount of salt, but I cannot on my own free will damage to my arteries voluntary. With all the mindfulness of good health and exercise these days, this kitchen is still using salt like it were the 70's. read more

The food was a 10/10 for us ! But what made our experience even better was our sever gea she was literally the best sever we could ask for . Not even just to us she attended everyone just the same , I wish we had more severs like her . I didn't have to ask for a refill and napkins read more

Chuy's. A long time TexMex staple. I remember when there was only one location. Now they're in OK and KY and who knows where else. Like any chain, menu consistency is key. In Norman or Lexington it gets 4 stars every time. In Austin, the competition drives it down to 3. Three stars ain't bad! We always get the same thing: tacos al carbon for me, boom boom enchiladas for the hubby, and flautas for the kids. Queso and Mexican martinis always round out our meal. Great happy hour! read more

Basic delicious Tex-mex. Nothing extraordinary but the drinks are good. Good place to go for lunch or in the evening during the weekdays. Gets packed on the weekends and not worth the wait if it's over 20 min. read more

Chuy's won me over during this Pandemic. I use to vastly prefer Trudy's in the Tex Mex food wars. Trudy's was more unique, local, and just had better food, but it seems like for every second that Trudy's was declining (and oh boy were they declining) Chuy's was getting better, and better. Also, and this is where the pandemic comes in, Chuy's is the ONLY place who food is just as good, if not BETTER, when ordered To-Go. Honestly they deserve some kind of award for having mastered the art of to go food, because I know it's tricky, most places just can't hack it, but Chuy's is *chefs kiss*. I get the Chicken Flautas every time, and every time they are perfect. The Chicka-Chica Boom-Boom is also superb. The wait is usually not too bad either, which is rare. They will be busy, and their will be a wait, but you usually get seated pretty fast, and as long as the weather is nice they have a good patio waiting area. I'm not going to dock them for this, but I will say, DON'T order the Fajitas. When they are good, they are really good, but the meat is of really inconsistent quality, and sometimes they are weirdly chewy... Also they could up their margarita game. This is the only point I think Trudy's would still be them on... read more

Chuys has always celebrated Elvis via their Elvis shrine and decorations of Elvis. My family has always gone on January 8th dressed as Elvis and Priscilla. This year, the waiter told us, "we usually give free food to those dressed up. Let me ask the manager. " He came back and said "the manager said we are not celebrating Elvis anymore and no more free food." Eberyone sitting around us heard this exchange. Talk about embarrassing. Way to humiliate your customers. read more

Man... so sad to see a staple go downhill faster than a fat kid in a boxcar racer. I get it, things get expensive, corners get cut to maintain profits for the corporation that owns the place now... but dang, can't even get togo orders right? The last THREE togo orders we placed were wrong. My wife does not eat meat and ordered a bean burrito add mixed veggies... it came with ground beef, no cheese and no veggies. The second time I ordered the Comida Deluxe with an extra crispy taco, add fresh onions to the enchilada... I didn't get the extra taco I paid for, I didn't get the 8oz creamy jalapeno I paid (out the butt) for, didn't get the sour cream or side of queso... and my wife got the bean and cheese nachos with extra cheese... they came with next to no cheese... to the point it seemed like the kitchen said, hey... screw this guy. It was almost comical.... but after waiting nearly 20 mins past my pickup time and getting home to cold food that was wrong or missing items... bye bye Chuy's. Only reason I give it 2 stars instead of 1 is bc Juan the bartender is an absolute sweetheart and top notch in doing his best to offer service that attempts to overshadow the decline in product, management and BOH staff. Sad. read more

Lyda was our server, she was very sweet and served us in a timely manner. I give this location 5 stars. Been here multiple times and I am always satisfied. Good prices, great food and a nice selection of drinks! read more

If I could give 0 stars, I absolutely would. Food was great, service was okay, but the management is trying to cover up car theft occurring IN THEIR PARKING LOT!!! DON'T COME HERE UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR CAR BROKEN INTO!! We talked to management asking if this happens often and she said no. Not one, but TWO servers ran outside of the building to catch us and told us how car theft in their parking lot happens very often. VERY VERY poor management to be lying to their own customers. read more

First off the parking is a night mare you have vehicles parked in non parking spot / grass and along curb areas which is a huge hazard/ fire hazard I understand your busy but pls have someone to direct traffic as it's not well lit.sat outside had a wonderful server .

I woke up in the middle of the night throwing up I believe from food poisoning.pls avoid going here I was very disappointed read more

Chuy's - Burrito - Tex-Mex Near Me - Austin, Texas

Would give this a zero star rating if I could. This restaurant has completely changed from what it used to be and after 20years of going to this restaurant I will never be going back. Ordered a buffet worth of food and was given an unreasonably small amount of chips to go with my large queso. I kindly went in to ask for some more chips and was met with the rudest employee I've ever experienced who knows nothing about customer service. This restaurant should fire whoever that short guy is who works the to go line, and I'm pretty sure he's some type of manager. Was very argumentative and demanded money for chips instead of understanding. read more

Let me first state that servers work their butt off - kudos to that team. Now onto the real review - whomever owns or manages this location is woefully inept. Not sure if they refuse to adequately pay their staff or just refuse to hire additional employees. They have 4 servers working. Yes 4. Most of the restaurant is shut down like an abandoned Chernobyl bomb shelter. They routinely run out of items, wait time exceeds 90 minutes, the poor servers simply cannot keep up. It's embarrassing to the point that instead of sending food back, I write this last ditch salvo to warn others of a failed establishment that is a shell of what it used to be. Seriously do NOT waste your time here anymore. There are a TON of locally-owned Mom & Pop places in Austin that appreciate your patronage and have enough staff to serve their customers. This place needs an immediate management overhaul. read more
