Chuy's - Tex-Mex Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

See all

We are originally from California, but we have lived in Tennessee for over 30 years. Chuy's is the only restaurant we've found that serves Tex-Mex with real cheddar cheese like west coast restaurants do. We have to drive 30 miles from our home in Cleveland, but it's so worth it. The salsa is excellent too. It's not watered down. If you like a little spice, try the Boom-Boom sauce over a burrito or some enchiladas. The service is good, the place is clean and they have a bar. Prices are quite reasonable. read more

We live in the area and have been Chuy's fans for years going back to when we lived in Nashville. Our Chuy's in Chattanooga is so good! Everything is always so hot and fresh, even at off times. The servers always take great care of you and the place has the classic Chuy's vibe. It is our after school go to on Fridays! read more

The food was fresh and flavorful, and the portions were generous. The street tacos were some of the best I've had, and the service was friendly from start to finish. read more

Disappointing. We frequented the location in Knoxville it was great, this one not so much. The salsa they brought to the table with the chips was awful. It looked like they opened a can of Rotel and then watered it down. Not good at all. The house salsa was much better, they should have served that! To boot there was an ant wandering across our table. Wow. read more

Love to visit this one when in town! Service is always fast, food is always delicious! Hubs and I split a Comida Deluxe combo and loved it! Waitress, Lindsey G, was very attentive. We very much enjoyed our visit! read more

Chuy's - Chips and salsa - Tex-Mex Near Me - Chattanooga, Tennessee

See all

Chuy's is decorated in cute, festive Tex-Mex decor that's both interesting and lively to the senses. You can tell you're in for some spicy delights as you enter! Noise levels are tame enough in their sectioned 'rooms', making conversations easy. This is a delicious and reliable Tex-Mex food chain that consistently delivers a decent quantity of food on your plate for a decent price. Tex-Mex draws its cuisine from Texas, New Mexico and the bordering Mexico towns. You'll start off with complimentary chips and 2 kinds of salsa. The 'red' salsa is medium-hot 'spicy' level. It is filled with a myriad of flavors consisting of chunks of chopped tomatoes, onions, spices and fresh chopped cilantro. The creamy 'white' jalapeño salsa is out of this world spicy and a real keeper. This alone could be your meal if you're with a group and just having a good time along with a couple of cocktails - but wait - there's more! And Tex-Mex foods always go well with a margarita. You must try their 'spicy' traditional margarita drink. The bartenders make these consistently well. Typical dishes such as tacos, enchiladas, chimichangas, flautas, and other traditional Tex-Mex food fare all come with yellow rice and refried beans. The beans are a smooth consistency, not chunky. They boast that their enchiladas are "as big as yo face" and they aren't kidding. My two favorite dishes are the 'Tacos al Carbon', and the 'Baja Shrimp Tacos'. TACOS AL CARBON Fajita beef or chicken with grilled onions & peppers in flour tor­tillas. Served with lettuce, tomatoes, cheese & guacamole. BAJA SHRIMP TACOS Flour tortilla with lightly battered and fried shrimp, cilantro, cabbage, pico de gallo & Creamy Jalapeño sauce. Service is good at this location and wait staff will help you choose if you're not sure. Chuy's is always a crowd pleaser for most people's tastes. read more

We have been going to Chuy's for years. We have been to multiple locations in several states, but this location being way more disjointed than others. Service here recently has been chaotic and typically unhelpful with requests. Overall food is as expected and the environment is fun, but poor service and lack of effort in accommodations in both the hostess and service staff have made many visits undesirable. We love Chuy's and hope that this doesn't continue as it's a fun location to have in Chattanooga! read more

So very happy the Chile Rellenos are back, they were so good. The cheese Chile Rellenos taste how they should tastes. read more

Chuys has the best tortillas hands down. The refried beans are flavorful and I like the flavor in the fajitas.

Food was absolutely delicious. Fajitas grilled to perfection. We/I ordered the Chicken/Steak combo, plenty of food for 2 people in one order. The Taco platter and shrimp taco platter. Friendly service w/a very clean environment. read more

We went to lunch at Chuy's . The food is good and the prices are ok. The outstanding part was our server Robby. Attentive, friendly but not chatty and fast. Hopefully Chuy's will have him for years to come. read more

Once again that I did themselves, we had a surprise birthday party last Saturday for a Friend and they were super in getting seating for eight people and then on Sunday after church, our Singles group went again to Chuy's and they had seating for 10 people.. I love this place and the food is great!' read more

Yummy! Fajitas were good as always. Chips were endless and we ate a lot of them! Seating for large groups.

Always bussin. The food was so good and our waitress was as well. The decorations are always so cool too!!

I have my favorites at this restaurant and will try in different locations but get the same things every time. I also swing by often to get the jalapeño dip and chips and the tres leches cake. I love the jalapeño dip. It's so full of flavor and I will order it and use on my salad as well. The tres leches when really creamy is the best for me. Sometimes I ask for more sauce because it's best moist. My go to meal is CHICKA-CHICKA BOOM-BOOM which is awesome. Will be back for sure. read more

Met the girls for "Friday Therapy". I had never been here and was surprised at the quirky decor. There is a wall of dog photos and the back end of a car in another wall. The best thing tho...the food! I indulged in a happy hour margarita and some crispy, thin, chips and salsa and a white dipping sauce. The salsa had a nice kick and the white sauce was tasty. Not sure how to describe it. I had the Chick a Boom Boom enchiladas. Plenty of chicken in the enchiladas and the sauce was unique. I put some of the salsa on the enchiladas, rice, and beans - and devoured it! The current menu is a smaller offering currently then the regular menu, which explains the limited choices. I would definitely go back again once they have the full menu offered. read more

What can I say... I really love Chuys!! This is the third location Ive visited and have to give them 5 stars too. This time we were traveling during Coronavirus restriction times. They had finally opened during phase 1 for dine in. We were not sure we would stay, were thinking more to order and take out but when we saw how well they were following the safety instructions we decided to stay. They had both he inside and outside open. All staff wearing masks and tables "out of service" to keep the distance required between patrons. Inside was pretty empty. Just one table was occupied and they sat us on the other end. Felt pretty safe. Menu was a little limited, as they are just starting to reopen but they tried hard to get exactly what we wanted since they still had some of the ingredients in the kitchen. And service was quick and very friendly, as it's always been at all Chuys I've been to. Started with margaritas, and their awesome chips with dips. Creamy Jalapeño still being my favorite, our server brought extra for me. Among the green chile dip and regular salsa for my boyfriend. They had their taco dish on the menu but steak wasn't one of f the options. Still, that is what I was craving and seeing they had a steak burrito I asked if they could do it for the tacos too. "No problem, absolutely" she said and that is exactly what I got. Two soft tacos, with delicious tender steak with guacamole, pico de gallo and some lettuce on the side. It also comes with Mexican rice and refried beans. Not only do I love their food but I also love their portions. I always have leftovers for dinner or lunch the next day. And this was not the exception. After we were done, and packed everything to go, our server gave us containers to take home the sauces we liked and packed margaritas to go for us too. It was my first time, eating in a restaurant, after these two months of "quarantine" and cant have asked for a better way to do so. read more

Great hot food! Spectacular service by Lindsay! She was the best! So glad they brought back the Elvis chicken! The macho burrito was fabulous too! The host was super friendly! Kudos all the way around! Love Chuy's! read more

The best service I've received from a restaurant staff, ever. We always get our food in a timely manner and the chips and dip given while we waited is delicious. The last food I ended up getting was great. The ambiance is truly unique. It has a very chill vibe with interesting scenery. My son left his retainer on a napkin and it was thrown away. The manager pulled bags of trash out of the dumpster and ripped them open himself and found the retainer. Cannot recommend this place enough! read more

My husband I love eating here. This time we had the chicken fajitas for two with a queso appetizer. So good. I won't eat decried beans anywhere but here because they're that good. Our favorite thing there is the Ranch Jalapeño dip they bring with the salsa. Our youngest is an extremely picky eater and the waiters/waitresses never complain. They actually suggested the most cost effective way for him to have fajita chicken and rice without the "veggies". read more

When you walk in the staff is extremely friendly and cheerful. Throughout the meal our server was attentive and friendly as well. I found their salsa to be flavorful and just the right heat. Now for their chips ... we'll those are amazing with very light, extremely crisp and a snap. What causes me to give them 3 instead of 4 stars is the beef options and flavor. There was very little of any seasoning I could detect in the ground beef. You can only choose ground beef unless ordering fajitas. If I missed it then that is my fault as they have a very large menu but I was looking for a bit trying to find a steak burrito or tacos. I have eaten their twice to give another shot since I was in town so long. I will end an improved note stating the chicken was good in a burrito I had. So.... Would I recommend giving them a try? I would say yes because my seasoning desires can vary wildly from yours and you may prefer ground beef. I am a bit more of a standard type Mexican cruise person and this as it says on the sign is Tex Mex. Please do not take this review as a "do not go there" type review but more of a clarity for those that may not understand Tex Amex vs say California Mexican type preparation. Again kudos to all the staff as they were all working so hard and again some of the friendliest I think I have encountered I quite some time. I would say I would go again and may try the fajitas and adjust my score. Again great people work inside so give them a try! read more

Wow! I am so glad the other place we went to first didn't have a liquor license and we left, because this place is so good! As soon as we walked in the decor was so much to take in and it was very interesting! The little girl who greeted could've been in a better humor, but maybe she was not having a good day. She took us to our seats and immediately we could see this place was very clean, inviting, and the smell of the food was amazing! The food here is very good, but the star of our show was our server Shamecia. This woman is such a rarity in most of the restaurants my fiancé and I eat at that her attitude and smile are instantly noticed and very much appreciated! Shamecia greeted us warmly and not only asked what we would like to drink, but suggested several things, one of which my fiancé ordered. It was a really good margarita too! Again, as soon as Shamecia took our drink order she brought us the best salsa and jalapeño ranch dip we've ever had! She described it to us even including how spicy it might be and asked what our preferences were. We had menu questions and again, Shamecia was spot on! She made many suggestions based on our questions and we ordered the boom boom chicken based on her recommendation. She was again spot on with her suggestion! It was so good! Many Mexican restaurants overcook their chicken drying it out and making it bland. Not this dish! It was done with moist and tasty chicken with hot cheese inside each wrap! What a great dish! All the while Shamecia continued to check on us and even asked where we were from and she made several suggestions as to things we could do in the area! The food was great, but the biggest thing I took away from this experience was Shamecia. If we ever get back this way, we will eat here and be sure we ask for her! Thank you ma'am for a great experience in our late lunch with you! read more

Worst Tex Mex. Rubbery flour tortillas. Do not recommend to anyone, ever. I now have a stomach ache.

the bartender was very inattentive. Finally got a glass of ice water. Food was good but service was not!

Food and service was amazing, also the restaurant was in a nice area. I was visiting from out of state and was surprised by the food

We had a very enjoyable time at Chuy's today. The front of house service was top notch as was service. Not only were they both exceptional with their communication but so very personable as well. The food was able to be modified to meet my dietary restrictions and absolutely delicious to eat. Chuy's really is a great place for quality Tex-Mex food. read more

Great place to have a family meal. Really enjoyed the dinner we all had other than the margaritas were small. The wait was twenty minutes but I felt it was because of a convention going on in town. I will return next time I'm in town. read more

This is my 3rd Chuy's, so yes, I am probably a little biased. Having grown up in New Mexico, I am a fan of hatch green chili's. Over time it's to the point that if something n the menu has hatch green chili's I almost automatically order it. Chuy's has hatch chili's in a bunch of stuff. Although Chuy's originated in southern Texas and has Tex-mex dishes, it also has Mexican dishes and legit New Mexican dishes. The latter is one of the toughest things to find. Their green chili sauce recipe even comes from close to where I grew up so for me it all makes sense. When we popped in here the other day we were happy to see we were one of the only people. We made sure our table was clean and ordered up. First though, we added more chip dips. Chuy's has a few different dips they offer free of charge you just have to ask. We of course got the green chili salsa, along with their chili salsa. Both were fantastic. My gal ordered off the menu, steak tacos, which they obliged and made. The steak couldn't have been better, very lean. I got one of their dishes I have had a couple times the Chicka Chicka boom boom enchiladas. they were great as always. The server was very nice and considerate and the place was looking sharp. There's not much else I could say other than it's my favorite chain restaurant. Each location feels like they put time into making sure it amazing all on it's own. read more

One of our favorite restaurants in Chattanooga. Wish they would bring back the pork (carnitas) burritos - definitely an old favorite Best part is the Jalapeno dip with the chips. We like it so much we order a batch to go to enjoy the next day as a snack. Good location and easy parking read more

This is one of the newer restaurants in the Chattanooga area but it is not new to me at all. I have a very high standards when it comes to Tex-Mex food because I lived in Houston for a long time. With that being said let's begin the review. The decor very bold and bright and vibrant. They even have a wall for people to hang pictures of their dogs and you get a appetizer for free. So far everything that I have tried has been very delicious and I'm also like the different types of they have hearing in heat and sauces and textures to have with your meal or with your chips and salsa. It could be a little bit more flavorful for me to give it a full five star on the Tex-Mex side of things but overall customer service cleanliness all that stuff makes it four stars for me I hope you enjoy it as I have every time I've gone and if it was too wet they made it milder for my palate bon appétit!!! read more

Food was good as always. Tonight Amee was our server and did a really great job. Drinks never half empty, everything we asked for (party of 6 with a 1yr. old) was quickly brought with an enthusiastic smile. I don't usually give a review based on service but this was an exceptional experience in a time where many are forgetting what great service means. Thank you Amee! read more

Full disclosure: we hadn't visited Chuy's since 2020, until today. Holy frijoles it's gone downhill and this will be our last visit. Sad. We really used to love their food. Lunch today was completely tasteless and the menu is so much more limited now. Two Stars: one for good service and one for speed. I turned to the interwebs to see what the chatter is and, no surprise, folks confirmed that we're not the only ones who have recognized the loss of once great food. So long, good luck, and thanks for the memories Chuy's. read more

The ranch jalapeño dip and dressing are to die for. It could be a meal in itself. Love the atmosphere. Service was great as well.

Had never been before but my son had, and wanted us to try it. Good, different, unique. Definitely not traditional Mexican/ American! I loved it, my husband did not. I loved the fun atmosphere! Would definitely try it again! read more

My only regret is there is no way to leave zero stars. That was my first reaction, but the customer service redeemed them. Ordered the steak carbon tacos and it was inedible. There was a thick piece of gristle and just ruined my first impression of this place. The manager did offer a new plate or replacement, but I am disappointed. The wife and kids loved their food. Parker also offered to replace the push pop with churro bites and was very helpful. read more
