    Green Chile Relleno Combo

    Una experiencia pésima. Pedimos tortillas de maíz y estaban agrias y olían mal, le dijimos a nuestra mesera y se las llevó pero ya nunca nos trajo otras (todas al parecer estaban en mal estado) . Cuando llego el platillo de chile relleno con la enchilada verde, la tortilla también estaba echada a perder y el chile relleno ni para que mencionarlo, solamente véanlo. Muy mala presentación de los platillos, nada presentable o apetitoso. Nuestra mesera muy linda y con mucha pena disculpándose, ella se portó muy bien.

    Not sure how this place has somewhat decent reviews, to be perfectly honest. I rarely give out bad reviews - but when it warrants it, I will. The pros; the outdoor patio is really pretty - although they have fans blowing directly on you, so the napkins and anything not nailed down goes flying away. We were seated quickly. The food wasn't bad. Cons? It was expensive - the gauc was eight bucks, tasted spoiled, and was literally all lettuce underneath one meager scoop of gauc. Yikes. Our server literally gave no shits and would be walking away before we even had a chance to say what we were saying about our order. We had to ask probably five times for a refill on water and chips. He seemed like he wanted to be anywhere but there, and instead hung out at the bar on his phone.

    Chuy's has always been a favorite of mine. Being from the east cost it reminds me of meeting my family for vacations in Florida and Disney (Orlando!). I was excited when I moved to El Paso to see that they also had a Chuy's. The food and drinks were on point for this location as to be expected. The only reason I did not rate five stars is because during Covid Chuy's has a limited menu. Understandable that businesses are hurting during the pandemic and have to limit some of their offerings. However, this local Chuy's (and Chuy's in general) has not advertised these changes. The menu is very small and options such as vegetarian and/or seafood are not available. I was surprised that some of our favorite meals were no longer offered and all of the meals currently offered were very slim.

    Outstanding service and the food never disappoints! The perfect ambiance for a casual lunch or dinner.

    Service is friendly and very short wait time on a Sunday and on Cinco De Mayo. Free chips and homemade salsa are awesome. Enjoyed a strawberry margarita in the day's cup. Our plate was huge and shareble.

    So I've come a few times to chuys and don't get me wrong, the food is great. However, the level of service you receive at the bar depends on if you're familiar or not. The ambiance is overall traditional Tex Mex. I've been to a lot of Mexican restaurants because I love a good frozen margarita but Aaron completely blew my buzz. I'm assuming because I wasn't his type or a familiar face, I didn't get the same treatment. I waited so long for my second drink, I ended up ordering it to go. What's ironic is, I've only been in town for a few weeks but between in person visits and online ordering with friends, we've spent at least 300 bucks there. If you're looking for a good frozen margarita, just get it to go!

    Quesadillas
    Aaron R.

    Let me start by mentioning that I only tasted the quesadillas, which are an appetizer. So the main plates could be more appealing for some and even more delicious. I loved that the flour tortillas are freshly made right there at the spot and you can taste it. The ratio of food to plate was pretty generous for what I ordered. Would have loved to see more salsa in each quesadilla or at least the option to have some on the side, I'm not talking about bottled ones. They can carry the homemade tortilla spirit and expand it to the salsa department. The service was good, no complains in that aspect and the decorations inside the restaurant is pretty cool and interesting. I really liked that they have local art displayed and even for sale, I believe. Glad we tried a new place on our visit to the fountains and I would encourage to give it a go for yourself and see if this is for you. Provecho!

    I went to Chuy's with a large group of friends and everyone said the food was good. Not amazing but definitely good. My friend Curt was in town from Florida and we split the boom boom enchiladas. The sauce was milder than I expected but it still had good flavor. Will definitely good again.

    Custom Enchiladas

    We were visiting El Paso for a business trip and a bunch of us decided to try this place out on a Friday night. Hands down the martini was to die for - we each must have had 2 servings of martinis each paired with the delicious food. I had heard the enchiladas were good and we were not disappointed. Even though this was more commercial and more of a Tex mex place, the rice and beans were authentic. The house fiery sauces added that extra kick to the food and it did not disappoint. Had a great evening

    Steak Burrito*
    Ayana P.

    This was a massive steak burrito. Super huge and I love it. It's a very filling meal and I love to eat so I was quite satisfied. The steak was juicy and cooked perfectly. There was a lot of steak in the burrito and the green chili added to the flavor.

    Enchiladas and a chimichanga

    Very good Tex mex. Wish the enchiladas were a bit more spicy but still good and these margaritas!? 10/10 I ordered chicken enchiladas and when I got them they were all cheese I told my server and he had no problem on taking my plate and bringing it back correctly so I really appreciate that. Cute decor too!

    Ground beef tacos
    jessie a.

    The typical tex mex place. I was disappointed to see a limited menu. I ordered the fajita tacos and they were standard fare. Nothing special about this. Two tacos with undercooked rice and beans The michelada I had was watered down. My son ordered the flautas (6 to an order). He liked them. His date ordered the ground beef tacos. Can't say what those tasted like. For dessert I ordered the 3 leeches cake and that was better than expected. Overall.. nothing to ooh and ahh over. Just another chain serving textbook tex mex fare.

    Chuy's always has amazing staff, delicious food and the restaurant is always clean. I have visited several locations when I travel and it's always consistent. The hatch green chile sauce is delicious is you like a little spice in your life. Great food for a chain restaurant. I highly recommend these folks if your looking for a delicious lunch or dinner.

I had just flown in from the airport, and my brother arranged it as a special family gathering. Everything started normally: we were seated, ordered our food, received our drinks, and enjoyed the complimentary chips and salsa. Then my sister (who is LGBTQ+) stepped away to use the restroom. When she returned and sat down, a manager approached our table and loudly told her--in front of other diners--that "MEN cannot use the female restroom." My sister was mortified and humiliated by the public confrontation. The manager's tone and assumption were shocking and clearly discriminatory. We immediately got up and left without eating. This wasn't about enforcing any legitimate policy; it was rude, insensitive, and targeted. My adult sister is perfectly capable of reading the restroom signs herself--no one needed to police or shame her in such a way. The incident felt rooted in homophobia and transphobia from management. We will never return to this place, and we will actively discourage others--especially LGBTQ+ individuals and allies--from patronizing it. What should have been a joyful family milestone was ruined by bigotry. Avoid this establishment if you value respect and inclusivity.

Unfortunately, that loyalty came to an end after a recent experience that was both disappointing and unacceptable. My family and I chose this restaurant to celebrate a birthday. Every guest paid separately, and there were no issues during the evening itself. However, as the event concluded, multiple attendees, including family members and in-laws, overheard servers making derogatory comments about our party. Among the remarks were that we were "ungrateful," "cheap," and "broke," along with other inappropriate comments that no customer should ever have to hear. I brought the matter to the attention of ownership, hoping for a meaningful resolution. While I was told the employees had been reprimanded, the proposed remedy was a $25 gift card. After nearly 18 years of patronage, the response felt dismissive and only added insult to injury. What disappoints me most is not simply the behavior of the staff, but the lack of accountability and concern shown afterward. This was a place I once considered a reliable and welcoming destination for family gatherings and celebrations. Sadly, that trust has been lost. As a result, I will no longer be returning or recommending this establishment to friends, family, or colleagues. Respect for customers should be a fundamental part of any hospitality business, and in this case, that standard was not met.

Had multiple thousand Google reviews and they were all close to five stars. So I knew I had to check it out. It was super close to my hotel, so I popped in the car and found it without trouble. Trouble. Again, there is pretty limited parking so it's kind of hit and miss whether you'll find a spot or not. Fortunately, I did. When you walk up to the place, the building itself is pretty nondescript. They have a nice selection of outside seating, and your window to order is outside. Very nice lady at the counter gave me helpful suggestions and so I ordered three tacos and an amazing lime and cucumber fresca. Went in and sat down inside and was pleasantly surprised by the interior. It definitely had more of an upscale bar vibe to it than a Taco shop. The waiter that brought out my tacos told me that it turns into more of a nightclub after hours. I may have to go check that out. The tacos themselves were absolutely off the chain! The tortillas were blue corn and everything on it tasted so fresh and so wonderful. The carnitas was fantastic, the brisket Taco was to die for and the blackened shrimp Taco was one of the best I've ever had. Had. The flavors were so balanced and on point, it was one of the most satisfying taco experiences I have had!! I will probably hit this place up a couple more times before I leave El Paso. If you are in El Paso, you probably already know about this place. But I'm telling you what you cannot go wrong for tacos and that lime/ cucumber fresca! Bottom line? It's about 10 hours drive from Las Vegas to El Paso. And this Taco shop will give me a great reason to do a road trip anytime. Do yourself a favor and go check this place out!
