Chuy's is my go-to Tex-Mex comfort-food establishment. Did you know Chuy's first opened in 1982, and now they are a chain with locations nationwide. We were surprised to see a Chuy's in Colorado Springs, Co. We frequent the Cedar Park location and have always enjoyed our visits. Their Mexican martinis are a Fav and they will gladly double them up for you. My go-to is the Chicka-Chicka Boom-Boom Enchiladas. I love the spicy boom-boom sauce and the green chile rice that accompanies it. I'm also a fan of their tortilla soup. This is our takeout option when it's chilly outside or if we are going lite. It comes with plenty of chicken, and you can spice it up to your preferred heat level. I can honestly say that I've never had a bad experience at any of the Chuy locations in the Austin area. They are all consistently good! read more

Let me establish credibility up front: I am a taco guy. Philosophically. Spiritually. Practically. If there's a menu, I'm scanning for tacos. Except at Chuy's. At Chuy's, I am a burrito person--and I've made peace with that. I've been eating at Chuy's for about 20 years, which in Austin time means I've watched entire neighborhoods rise, fall, and get rebranded as "districts." Through it all, Chuy's has stayed exactly what it is: a true Austin staple that doesn't try to impress you--it just feeds you really well. ( even though it's all over Texas now) Let's talk food. The steak burrito with boom-boom sauce is my standing order because I like spice with consequences. This thing is enormous. Not "big plate" big--this is a structural burrito. The redwoods of burritos. I get two meals out of it easily, sometimes three if I'm feeling emotionally responsible. Chuy's doesn't believe in portion control; it believes in abundance. Yes, everyone raves about the jalapeño ranch, and yes, they're correct. But what doesn't get enough credit are the chips: thin, light, super fresh, perfectly crisp. No thick, dusty triangles pretending to be artisanal. Pair that with their salsa--bright, tomato-forward, almost pico-like, never pasty--and suddenly you've eaten half a basket before the food even arrives. This is not your fault. This is design. Atmosphere: I love quiet places. Chuy's is not one. But it's boisterous in a way that feels alive, not chaotic. The artwork and design are genuinely original, full of heritage and stories--not corporate Tex-Mex cosplay. It feels like a place that knows who it is and doesn't need to explain itself. Service is usually good--kind, fun, efficient. But my server last night was exceptional. Not just polite, but attentive in a human way. She clocked that I'd had a long day and quietly turned dinner into an actual experience instead of a transaction. That kind of care matters. Bottom line: Chuy's is still doing what it's always done--serving big, flavorful Tex-Mex with personality, history, and zero apologies. I may be a taco guy everywhere else, but at Chuy's? Hand me the burrito. I know better. read more

Food is pretty good for the price you pay since most restaurants sell way overpriced microwave Sysco food. So I do give claps for Chuys keeping the prices affordable. Service is a lot better for sure in the last 6-8 months. When in the years prior, it was definitely lacking. Thank you Chuys for stepping up your customer service game! Ambiance-I do wish they would keep their tables and floors cleaner, for this I would blame the busers. I also wish they would not allow dogs in the restaurant patio. I am a dog lover but restaurant isn't the place for pets. I'm sure no one wants dog hair in their food and/or some of your customers might be allergic to pets? Also.. please have your hosts give customers silverware and napkins, this seems to be an on going occurrence where customers are always asking for silverware and napkins .. thank you. Overall, it's a great place with good food and good menu price . read more

Service was good but... fajitas were so raw! Sent them back and pretty sure they microwaved them. They were so tough that you couldn't eat them. The past several times we've been here, the food hasn't been the same. We won't be back!! read more

Location Just off 183, Cedar Park Parking Large open lot Atmosphere Mexican cantina family restaurant Seating Inside, outside patio-great for groups Service Outstanding-immediate water, chips replenished with huge scoop frequently. Menu Appetizers, complimentary chips and salsa/white jalapeño sauce, tacos, soup, burritos, enchiladas, salads, quesadillas, main dishes. We had the quesadilla with chicken-served with a generous dollop of sour cream, a spoonful of guacamole, small lettuce pieces, diced tomatoes. It was more like 4 tacos than a quesadilla but excellent-loaded with chicken and cheese. The soup was chock full of chicken and veggies. The enchilada platter was a big serving with rice and beans. Summary Dependable local Mexican restaurant chain-great food, outstanding service, good location. Love this place!! read more

Got the Kings Memorial Combo and it was really good. The enchiladas had great sauce but honestly the beans and rice were my favorite part. The creamy jalapeno ranch with the chips was the star of the show and something we do not have in California. The queso was also solid and worked perfectly with the dips. Chips were a little on the chewy side but the dips made up for it. Sweet tea was fresh and spot on. Service is always quick and the staff is super sweet every time. The place has a fun vibe with quirky and colorful decor that makes it feel lively and welcoming. Portions are generous and the plates come out looking just as good as they taste. I can see why this is a Texas favorite. Overall, not a bad experience or vibe to the restaurant and definitely more of a chain and fast food sit down restaurant! Some good food overall! read more

I hadn't been here in so long, so thought I'd stop by and get a quick drink and an appetizer from the bar. Upon arriving (a little past 7pm) we were able to sit at the bar right away. I was greeted by Shayla, when I couldn't decide what to get, she recommended me some of her faves. I ended up getting the Skinny Marg & Appetizer Plate. The margarita tasted great, and the appetizer plate was perfect too! Shayla was very attentive but not overbearing which is always nice in a restaurant setting. The other bartender Brad I believe was his name, also was attentive and offered us waters too. I love that the bar wasnt too crazy busy, so the bartenders are able to attend all the guests in a non-rushed way. I wasn't able to finish everything I ordered but without even asking Shayla brought me a to-go box, which was exactly what I needed. I'll be back for happy hour next time! Great service, and friendly staff in the Bar. read more

I have enjoyed Chuy's @ Cedar Park several times over the years. I would have my Toyota serviced @ Toyota of Cedar Park and take the dealership shuttle to the Chuy's while waiting. The food has always been amazing. For Me, Chuy's Tex-Mex is on par with Baby A's. However, I recommend to always to take a picture of your receipt and the copy you signed for the merchant. read more

I'm increasing my review to 5 stars due to the service in the bar area. My last few visits I've eaten in there and the service has been really good. I've dined at both busy and slow times, lunch and dinner. My servers have been on top of things, even when they have been overwhelmed. Each server stayed on top on of my drinks--a margarita never went totally dry before another one was offered! The grilled chicken in my tacos and quesadillas is still solid and tasty; the jalapeno ranch is top notch. And you can't beat Tito's Lemonade! read more

Horrible experience with just waiting for a table. Glad I checked on our reservation that was told 30-40 mins. The girl said we had been texting you. Come to find out the hostess typed the wrong number in. Then she said their system removed me from the list. Now this happened twice being removed from the system. It's been 1 hr and ten minutes and still waiting. If it wasn't for my parents ( 96 and 98 year's old) we're not with me I would leave and go somewhere else and start over. Another issue is no manager in site read more

You can join the waitlist in advance of arrival so you don't have to wait as long - which is a nifty feature if you know about it in advance. They have fun frozen drinks and the standard variety of Tex Mex offerings. Prices seem a little steep for a chain restaurant but the food is decent. read more

The food is great but not when there's roaches crawling in your chip basket. Specifically at this location.

Now I remember why I stopped supporting this place prior to Covid. Terrible bartender Bri, just awful. I've worked in this business a long enough time to know you don't go complain about a customer in front of them to the other bartender because YOU GOT MY ORDER WRONG. Corn tortillas in every restaurant I've ever been to means hard shell, not soft corn, which in reality was a flour tortilla I was given. If you needed to know what kind of corn tortillas I wanted because there was a choice she should have asked. Not only that, she didn't give me napkins or silverware with my appetizer. The queso here I'm not a fan of but her smug attitude like she's somebody" is hilarious. read more

I love Chuy's! Have for a long time but COVID killed my favorite entree. Elvis fried chicken. I was over the moon to see that this glorious item is back!!! Amy was an amazing waitress and the food came out fast. This place might be a franchise but it is still an amazing place for Tex Mex. Atmosphere is fun and the energy adds something hard to explain but I definitely needed it and I'm glad I went! read more

Your Yelper Girl here! Happy to be back after a hiatus from this Chuy's location due to dissatisfaction with the menu and food. (See previous reviews). All I can say is YAYYYYY for a yummy experience. The Elvis Fried Chicken is BACK. It was delicious as was the Chicka Chicka Boom Boom enchiladas. Our margarita drinks were amazing too and the service was great. Welcome back to our dining out rotation, Chuy's! Happy Yelper here!!! read more

We've been coming to Chuy's for years, and it never stops hitting the spot! That being said, I was excited to see a new menu item that was a true winner. We ordered the Tex-Mex Burrito bowl. The bowl was MASSIVE! It comes with a lifetime supply of rice and other toppings including chopped up fajita beef. If you end up ordering this for yourself, my hint would be to split the bowl in two, but eat all the meet in the first sitting. Bring home the rest and just add meat to make a perfect second dish. The rest of the meal was as typical Chuy's as you can get. Chips with the jalepaneo ranch, two margaritas, and some ground beef tacos which were all perfect. We left quite satisfied. When you come to Chuy's, you know what to expect. Quality Tex Mex that is consistent and affordable. read more

Chuy's - Tex-Mex Burrito Bowl - Tex-Mex Near Me - Cedar Park, Texas

Food is really not good. It's wild. This is a very known and supposedly name brand restaurant in town- but have the owners/management actually eaten the food? Do you really like it? How does it compare to Serranos and Lupe Tortilla? Hint: light years behind. Fajitas are dry and even look like they were just reheated frozen meat. Enchiladas- no good. Only thing they have is the creamy jalapeño dip- but that's not enough to bring me back. Work on your food. This is a restaurant. Hoping you either address your food or go bankrupt for being completely stubborn. read more

This is my Sunday spot for green chile enchiladas and margaritas after shopping. Bartenders and always nice. Portions are generous the queso is oh so yummy! There are lots of vibrant decorations on the wall as well as real photos of people's dogs . Love this detail . read more

Best location in the area! We had the pleasure of having Juliette taking care of us today. She went above and beyond to make sure we had the best experience! The food was excellent as always. read more

My family and I used to be loyal Chuy's customers. We would come multiple times a month and rarely ever had issues...until our last two visits. Unfortunately, today's experience was the worst we've ever had and honestly made us question if we'll ever be excited to come back. We waited almost an hour and a half for our food, with four kids. When it finally came out, my wife's meal and my son's meal were both wrong. After such a long wait, my kids were already done and over it. The staff offered to remake the incorrect meals "to go" and said they wouldn't charge for those two plates, but at that point nobody wanted to wait any longer. What made everything worse is that nothing else was comped despite the extremely long wait, the wrong orders, and a completely frustrating dining experience. No discount on the rest of the meal. It's really sad because we genuinely loved Chuy's and always recommended it to others. After today, it's hard to see ourselves coming back anytime soon. I hope they can get their crap together. read more

We love Chuys! Wonderful queso! Good food! Fun restaurant with great decor! Nice ambiance! Great wait staff! My favorite thing to order is the Chicken Chuychanga. read more

Food and service always top tier!!! I love this location and I love the staff. They always seem happy to serve and that's always a plus!

A safe Tex-Mex option! Food: Love their chips! Make sure you ask for jalapeno ranch to dip your chips in beside their salsa. No extra charge. Some of my go-to options: Shrimp tacos: 2 tacos. I do prefer the grill over fried since it has more flavor. Steak burrito: Large portion. The steak can taste a little burned at times. They always come with rice and beans, but I don't really enjoy them. Staff: Most of the time, our servers are very friendly and attentive. Sometimes, it's even hard to get our water refilled, which I see as the most basic expectation. Vibe: I like that there's always cool decor to look at. Low-key casual vibe to hang out with friends and family. read more

I feel like the past few times we have ordered to go food we have had to wait 30 minutes after it said our food would be ready. This time the food was not hot or even warm like it normally is. Is ordering to go food from here just not the way to go anymore? read more

Had my birthday dinner tonight. Food was absolutely delicious! Ordered a margarita but it didn't taste right. Waitress was amazing! She asked if I wanted to try a flavored one. I had a blackberry margarita-it was amazing! Definitely 5 stars read more

Mediocre at best. Would only recommend a visit if you're craving their famous jalapeño cilantro ranch! Ambiance - very typical chuy's decor. It's cute and eclectic inside which creates a fun vibe! Food - food was relatively decent (very standard quality to other locations). I ordered a cheese enchilada with boom boom sauce which was adequate for fast food standards (sauce was spicier than I expected in a good way!) I will say that the food took longer to arrive since they had run out of rice, but our server warned us of this in advance and we had chips to keep us satisfied! Service - although our server was very nice, she didn't do a great job of checking in with our table regularly. For example, after we started eating, one member of my party realized her dish was a bit too spicy and wanted to get a side of sour cream. It took around 15 minutes for someone to notice that we were trying to find a server. Our server came, but asked us if we wanted boxes even though my friend had not really started eating her food. She did eventually bring the sour cream, but acquiring it in general did take longer than we had hoped for! read more

Cedar park , Tx location: Derek in the bar at Chuys is the best! Awesome drinks! Give this man a raise!

I use to love Chuys North Lamar and Barton Springs late 80's and early 90's. Life was better then and so was Chuys. Had a queso today that amounts to 2.5 oz for darn near $6.00 bucks. And the basket of chips has gotten smaller, but that could be Covid. Menu today seems fast food and a complete change from the beginning of Chuys. Btw server was great and friendly read more

I usually come here in person because the vibes are always good and I've never had a problem with the food. Well the other day I ordered through uber eats and I got food poisoning from the quesadillas I ate. Kinda disappointing and makes me not want to eat here again, not even in person. read more

A friend who used to live in Austin told us to try this spot and we were thrilled for some great Tex mex! Service was outstanding, food was excellent and the margaritas were great! read more

I'm in no mood to cook. Our waitress was fun and beautiful! Chuy's is Tex-Mex tradition. Their enchiladas, their tacos their burritos their specialty plates are all fabulous!! Where I would like to see them improve is in their soups and salads. They're just not up to par in my opinion, in particular their tortilla soup. A huge disappointment!!Their taco salad no longer comes in a tortilla shell! Say what??????? Back to the positives. The chips come warm and are refilled ad lib! Their salsa is delicious and their jalapeño ranch is to die for and draws customers in by the droves. The margaritas and the hubcaps are world renowned!!! I occasionally will indulge in a Mexican Martini. The Tres Leches is delicious per my grand daughter. All in all it's great to have Chuy's in Cedar Park-eliminating the drive to Round Rock or Austin. Try it- read more

At first the service was ok but my daughter's orders small items and I was not hungry so order a beer. We were here for a little over an hr for soup and kid's tenders. The waiter says Alex has your table, It was a while before I was wanted another drink and I saw the waiter come by and ask him if he was still our waiter and he said "Alex is ur waiter". I didn't even know who Alex was, so this waiter was condescending to me. Disappointed cause my girls love this place. My daughter complained and Alex (new waiter) came by and gave me my check, so I paid. My daughter also is a server and doesn't treat her customers like this. read more

I stopped by Chuy's on Monday night with a couple friends, and while the food was fine, what I witnessed from the manager, Ethan, was enough to make sure I won't be returning anytime soon. In full view of customers, Ethan spoke to his staff in a way that was downright disgraceful--belittling and talking down to them over something that, frankly, was extremely logical and didn't warrant that kind of response. As someone who works in sales, I get the pressure of customer satisfaction, but there's a line--and Ethan crossed it by choosing ego over leadership. There's a right way to correct mistakes and lead a team, and what Ethan showed was anything but. His behavior was condescending, unprofessional, and frankly embarrassing--for himself and the restaurant. I won't support an establishment where that kind of treatment is tolerated. Not as long as he's managing it. read more

I was so disappointed for the amount of money we paid for the queso salsa, jalapeño ranch dip, boom boom, and they were all supposed to be 8 ounces, and there was no way I would say maybe 5 ounces on the queso jalapeño ranch maybe the 6 ounces boom boom 5 ounces Salsa 6 ounces. This was a to go order for my Thanksgiving guests that I picked up on Wednesday afternoon. read more

Love all the food! The choice of sauces is amazing. But the take out is always ice cold and we don't live far.

Very Good Service!! Food is always good! Drinks were STRONG!! Hostess was really friendly and accommodating! Spun the wheel of prizes and got 10% off my Entree . Also awesome! The only reason I did not give 5 stars is the table was really too small for people and it took an hour to get our food. read more

I wouldn't know. I came in to get a gift card and they said that they don't have any more and something about going online or waiting blah blah blah. I told her I'd come back tomorrow and she said OK and I walked off and that was that. Nobody here seems anxious to sell anything and I'm really not sure why they're out of gift cards, but it seems pretty ridiculous and so I'll go somewhere else that wants the business more. read more

If you've never eaten at Chuy's then you need to do it now. It is an Icon in Texas for Tex-mex food. They have a very restricted menu during Covid, but everything they offer is good. Each location has different decor and that's part of the experience. Very casual dining. Great for kids and families as well, although a little pricier than some local places. They greet you with complimentary chips and dip. Be sure to ask for their signature creamy jalapeños chip dip, It's a medium heat dip that is amazing! read more
