Chuychanga
Scott F.

First time at this Chuy's with mixed results. Service was good. I ordered the Chuychanga and ninja'd the usual rice and beans usual sides. I changed out the rice and beans for fries then for the sauce for my Chuychanga, i got queso. Bam...Instant cheese fries. The Chuychanga arrived and for a minute I thought i should be reading my fortune as it literally looked and had the texture of a fortune cookie. Definitely over cooked. The fries were hot and crispy and the queso was good so the cheese fries I created were not bad. Unfortunately I didn't go there for cheese fries but based on the over cooked entree, I can't recommend coming back for another visit.

I was in town for a concert and swung by Chuy's afterwards. It was busy, but we were greeted immediately by the very friendly, smiling staff. We loved looking at the dozens and dozens of framed dog photos on the wall near the bar! Our food was ready fast, the order was accurate, and everything was delicious!! My only negative: the parking lot is a nightmare! Pack your patience and drive carefully.

I ordered takeout and the portion size was MASSIVE! I decided to do the appetizer sampler and it was delicious. I got soooo much food and it was fresh and well made! I definitely would come back, the service was great and the staff was very friendly and the restaurant itself wasn't massive but it was nice. Definitely and great vibe and good food, my platter was $15 which was a great deal for the portions. I definitely will be back

Little Chips and Dips

Everything i had here was very tasty. Was able to get a burrito which was plentiful. Chips and dip was free with my meal.

I've been coming to Chuy's since before Elvis was scrubbed from the menu and before covid ended the free queso bar. I'm a serious Mexican food lover and can say without a doubt.. if you're looking for authentic Mexican food you wont find it here. However, if you are looking for fun Tex-Mex then you'll love it. The first thing I fell in love with was the Elvis Fried Chicken (now named Green Chili Fried Chicken). I'm not sure if Chuy's got sued by the Elvis Estate but thankfully the name change didn't actually change the dish. It comes with a chicken breast breaded with Lay's potato chips & fried to a golden brown, served over green chile sauce, topped with cheese, served with Mexican rice + refried beans. Its bonkers delicious but the green chili sauce is a tad on the spicy side so if you're not great with heat.. maybe leave it on the side. I've since graduated from the fried chicken to regularly ordering the "The Kings Memorial Combo" which comes stacked with a seasoned ground beef enchilada topped with Tex-Mex sauce, a chicken enchilada with tomatillo sauce, a cheese enchilada with ranchero sauce, a crispy beef taco, homemade tostada chips dipped in queso, served with Mexican rice + refried beans. I know that sounds like a lot.. and it is... which is why I love it. Another notable mention would be the steak burrito which is labeled as "Big as Yo' Face" for a reason. Its a monster sized burrito meant to be eaten with a fork that comes with a flour tortilla stuffed with delicious grilled steak and jack cheese, topped with hatch green chile sauce, served with Mexican rice + refried beans. The chips and salsa never stop coming, the Jalepeno ranch is so good it should be labeled a national treasure, and the service is always great.

My girlfriend and I absolutely love going to Cheuy's Mexican Restaurant, and a huge part of the reason is the incredible service we always receive from Miguel. We make a point to sit in his section by the bar every time we visit because he consistently makes the experience outstanding. Miguel is friendly, attentive, and genuinely makes you feel welcome from the moment you sit down. He keeps everything running smoothly, makes great recommendations, and somehow manages to be right there whenever you need something without ever feeling intrusive. It's rare to find service this good these days. The food is always delicious, the atmosphere is fun and relaxed, and Miguel's top-notch service takes the whole experience to another level. If you're visiting Cheuy's, do yourself a favor and try to sit in Miguel's section by the bar--you won't be disappointed!

The Elvis Presley memorial combo

The atmosphere is a lot of fun and the portion sizes are great for the price. We started with the house salsa (spicy) and our waitress brought some ranch out that was quite tasty. I ordered the comida deluxe and was able to take home leftovers to make 2 meals out of it. It was a good amount of food for the price. I can't say the flavors blew me away or anything but it was fine. My husband and his friend ordered the Elvis Presley special which was actually a LOT of food. They enjoyed. The margarita was tasty and the prices were reasonable. I didn't like the boom boom sauce at all. I guess I was expecting something totally different with a name like "boom boom". If you're on the fence, try it before you order an enchilada drowned in it. We had great service but the food was just a little lack luster for me. But I'm also not used to going to chain tex-mex places. Try it for yourself!

Cheese Enchilada**
Rose S.

Oh Chuy's, how I wish I could love you like so many. Cheese enchiladas had absolutely no cheese perhaps they ran out - plenty of peppers and onions wrapped in corn tortillas. Should have asked them to swap the ranchero sauce for queso. Even out of the can Costco cheese would've been better then the dryness that were my sad enchiladas. The bright spot was our server. Apparently staff can dress however they like and she was seriously a good server. I don't remember her name. I was distracted by her pink hair and hot pink neon leggings. The ambiance is kitschy. It seems like a family establishment or 50+ looking for the happy hour drink specials. I may try it one more time and order the shrimp tacos which someone had at a table next to us which looked pretty good.

Terrible experience. Carson was the worst server I've ever had. He forgot most of our order and it came out incorrectly. I had to reorder several items we had ordered. At the end of the meal had to continually remind him to bring items like togo boxes and bags. When ordering for the nibblings I ordered soft drinks for them and he brought them. When it was time to pay he charged us for each beverage and then when I asked about the charge he said I ordered full size drinks when I only ordered the drinks because they came with the kids meal. I also didn't ask for the large size beverage for the kids. So beware when ordering for kids make sure you get a kids size beverage. After waiting so long for him to bring the items to pack our food togo Carson had the nerve to accuse of us not paying on the app. I had to show him on my phone the successful payment and he still didn't believe me and had to check his system. I was completely horrified and embarrassed! Everyone in the restaurant was looking at me and as the only brown people in the building it felt kinda of racist. I will never return to an establishment that treats its customers like this. Chuy's 7314 Waverly Walk Ave Unit E8 Charlotte, NC 28277 (Review 704 overall and 49 in 2022)

My friends went with the steak bowl, and it was packed with tender, perfectly seasoned steak and all the right toppings. We also shared the trio dip to start--queso, guac, and salsa with warm chips--and it was absolutely delicious. Everything came out hot and tasted homemade. The highlight, though, was the service. Our waiter was so sweet, attentive, and genuinely friendly without being over the top. He made great recommendations and kept our drinks filled without us even having to ask. Will definitely be back for more of those tacos (and that trio dip). Highly recommend if you're in the area and craving solid Mexican food with great vibes.

We sat out on the patio before a concert next door, ordered mojitos that tasted like juice and that should have been a sign... We ordered the Mahi mahi tacos and fries and the layered chicken enchilada. The tacos were pretty bland and dull looking . The fries were the highlight. The layered enchiladas plate came out looking a bit sad too. It was also just warm. Again no flavor and the salsa served with was flavorless. We left here wondering where we'd eat after the concert. Very average commercial grade food. If your looking for Tex mex this is not it !!!

It was a beautiful, private space for a group just catching up and having all the laughs! We started with the guacamole and cheese dip. The creative menu names were a nice touch as well.

But it's a perfect spot for summer nights, grabbing a drink and appetizers, or honestly, any occasion. The staff were super sweet and took the time to explain the menu, which was so fun. I loved the creativity behind the names of the dishes and the fresh ingredients they use. While we didn't get cocktails this time, I saw so many people ordering their margaritas, and they looked incredibly popular and yummy! We started the evening with the "Ma! The Meatloaf!" guacamole. It was super fresh and came in a great portion. Since it was Taco Tuesday, we took advantage of the special and tried "You're Going the Wrong Way," "I'll Have What She's Having," and "Prestige Worldwide." All of them were delicious, but the "I'll Have What She's Having" was definitely the favorite! We also shared the "Snoop-A-Loop" and added grilled chicken, which was the perfect addition. The chips were super crisp, and all the flavors complemented each other perfectly. We even had enough to take home and enjoy later! Overall, it was a great experience, and we will definitely be back.
