Wonderful service by two sweet gentlemen: Julian & Eric. Julian seated us and we ask about the frozen margaritas and he offered us a sample which we gladly excepted...they were amazing. So the we ordered them swirled together. Very refreshing drink. Eric, our server was doing an amazing job. It seemed like he was the only server on the floor but he was very capable of taking care of everyone. The food is always excellent here. I love looking at all the Mexican decor. Plus the pictures of old cars. read more

Chuy's - Chicken fajita quesadillas - Mexican Near Me - Houston, Texas

See all

First the good. Very friendly hostess and fun atmosphere. Love the funky vibe. Wonderful margaritas made with fresh lime, crispy chips, and the creamy jalapeño ranch dip is divine. Now what needs work. The food, from queso to beans to rice and meat, is too salty. The fajitas (tonight anyway) were horrible. We (husband and I) ate only one tortilla with beef and left the rest. We regret not going next door to Mamacitas for their tender fajitas and not overly salty food. This is not the first time we've left Chuy's with a bad taste. We've tried three times over the past eight weeks. The food is missing the mark. read more

This place was very good! Upon waking in I was able to smell all the TexMex flavors. So good! To start, fresh chips, salsa and a creamy sauce were brought out. It was so good! I couldn't put my finger on what the creamy sauce was, but it was delish. The salsa was chunky and had a small kick. Super good! For my entree I ordered shrimp tacos. They were delicious! They were also wrapped in a tin foil shaped shrimp (see picture). Talk about presentation! My cousin ordered a chicken enchilada and Chile relleno (not pictured). She really enjoyed. For my drink I had a spicy watermelon margarita. It was perfection!! Our waitress was wonderful! 5 stars! I really enjoyed my lunch! read more

Just walked out of the restaurant without eating. Our waitress took our order with our drink order. We waited an hour. She never came back. We got no food or waitress checking on us. Told the manager, she refilled our tea and we sat for another 15 minutes and walked out. I have NEVER walked out of a restaurant before in my life!!! read more

I would leave zero stars if I could. I am extremely disappointed by what just took place at this restaurant. My sister just drove in from Florida today for Christmas, and all she wanted was Chuys Tex mex. They don't have them where she is from, and she was super excited. I have worked for restaurants like longhorn, saltgrass, chilis, and bar and grills. I get it is busy with the holidays. With that being said, what happened was inexcusable. We sat patiently for 12 minutes. There were several empty tables around us they were cleaning up, again we understand its busy. But no eye contact or anything. At the 15 minute mark my mom walked over to the manager to see if anyone could take our drink order as it had been 15 minutes. She snapped at my mother saying, "well we're busy." And walked away. Excuse me? A proper response for a manager who is running the shift, would be, "I apologize for the wait, it is busy but I can get you started with drinks, and or appetizers while you wait for your server." You don't dismiss a customer in a rude manner over something that is not their fault! We were so caught off guard, we felt uncomfortable and left. As we're leaving we get a dirty look from not only the manager, but the hostess. What a joke. What an absolute joke this place is. As a manager, you're there to help them get through the rush. To not just ask for our drink order, and be rude and say "well it's busy." And walk away from us was insane to me. Thank god I've never worked for a place like this. We went to lazy dog and had incredible service, even with their dinner rush. We will never return. read more

Chuy's Big-as-your-Face Burrito tasted fine, but nothing special. Instead treat yourself and get their chicken or beef fajitas. You won't be disappointed. Their free creamy jalapeño dip with chips is also super delicious. And Chuy's Tres Leches dessert is absolutely amazing... The best in town! read more

This place is awful my car got broken into and so did my cousin's and 3 other cars. the cameras aren't working on the property and the manager did not care nobody at chuys cares and they just let it happen, go here if you want your window smashed read more

Chuy's, as a chain, has found a way to achieve consistency throughout the several locations I have been to, and this one is no exception. Chuy's is one of the few places you can have a sit-down meal for less than $15 any more, and while that, in itself, is a treasure, that's really about as much "bang" they have to impress you (though their boom-boom sauce might). Their jalapeño-ranch dip, queso, and sauces are always very delicious and inhale-able, but everything else you'll have is pretty monotone, and honestly? Under-seasoned. We had chicken enchiladas and while the chicken wasn't dry at all, having a piece by itself really was just serving...sodium. Their beans are alright, their rice is alright, they just seem a little weird. Surrender to the price tag, don't come in here with high expectations, and you'll walk away happy. But not too happy. read more

This was one of my favorite splurge restaurants. I have not eaten there since before Covid. My son and I were running and errand that took us near one. I wanted to order my favorite the Chili Relleno. I was given a choice of Chicken or Cheese. (It used to come with beef.) I chose the Cheese. When asked about the sauce, I mentioned the Chili Sauce. There was none. I was very disappointed, it was no where the absolutely delicious Chili Relleno I last had. It was like going from platinum standard to pig iron. I will not be back. The service was excellent and ambiance was as expected. read more

Fritz was amazing!!! Great service, will be back! I loved the margaritas and the chip refills were so quick!

Fritz was my bartender and he was so amazing !!! Anytime my drink went low he was there to ask if I wanted another

I stopped here today to have a quick lunch with my son. The service was not bad but it wasn't great either! In keeping it honest as always, this establishment was very clean. Tables, chairs, and floors were all clean. I was comfortable during my visit without having to feel food crumbs underneath my feet while eating which is an A+ in my book! One of my pet peeves is cleanliness and I must say it's nice and clean at this restaurant. The Hostess did not greet us right away as we entered the building. She kept her back turned to us for about a good minute or two while she finished the task she was performing before we entered. I guess that was more important than greeting the paying customers who had just entered the restaurant. Our server, Kinley was a nice young lady. She was welcoming and friendly. However, she was extremely slow and she rarely checked on us. She started us off with eating utensils and one napkin each. She took our drinks and appetizer order right away. After serving our drinks and appetizers and taking our entree orders, she vanished and disappeared like a magician. Well that one napkin that she gave us served its purpose ten times fold. I had to keep reusing it because she never checked on us to see if we needed anything. The food was pretty decent for the most part. It's Tex Mex in which I consider as comfort food, so I did not have any big expectations. We ordered the Chicken fajita quesadillas as an appetizer. They were served fresh and hot and were delicious. I ordered the Mexi-Cobb salad without cheese. It was an absolutely beautiful and colorful salad and tasted great! I enjoyed it immensely! My son ordered the Deluxe Chicken Enchilada dinner. He said it was wonderful, served hot and fresh! The only complaint he had was that they could have given more rice. They piled lots of beans onto his plate pero un poco arroz (but a little rice). Overall, I was highly disappointed with how long the waitress abandoned me and my son during our dining experience. It was as if we didn't exist as we sat around watching the other customers as their servers catered to them excessively. I would have given them five stars if Kinley would have catered to us the way the other customers were being catered to so for that, they lost one star. They lost another star for the hostess at the door that made us wait until she finished her task of folding dinner napkins before greeting us. She wasn't friendly at all and she projected a nasty attitude towards me when I asked to be seated at a table instead of a booth. First of all, she should have asked if we preferred a table or a booth instead of assuming we wanted a booth. That's called professionalism and great customer service skills! I gave them three stars based on cleanliness and delicious food. It's a very vibrant and colorful restaurant which makes it so inviting. The ambience was nice and quiet in the beginning but we were the first customers to enter the doors when they opened at 11:00 am. The ambience noise level slowly increased as more customers poured into the restaurant. It was pretty noisy but that's to be expected considering it is a fun, colorful, and vibrant atmosphere type of establishment. I really liked it. Maybe I will try a different location in the near future. read more

I want to make a point of letting yall know how very entertaining & Super Special our waiter JC was!! He made us laugh so much & so HARD too!! We look forward to getting back to our favorite spot soon!! LoL!! read more

We have visited many Chuy's locations, both in the Austin and Houston areas, including this location. Before today we had always been pleased with the food and service. Today was different. We first noticed the service had declined. The hostess and other employees were not friendly or thankful that we were there. Next we noticed that the menu had changed. It had fewer choices than before. The service was also poor. We had to wait 10 minutes before we were even acknowledged, and 20 minutes before we received our drinks. It took 25 additional minutes before we got our food. The server seemed annoyed when we asked him for something. The food quality has also declined. I would have preferred a tortilla from HEB compared to the ones in my enchiladas. Needless to say, we were disappointed in our meal today. We will not be returning. read more

:( I really tried my best to like Chuy's, but in my experience the food did not taste authentic. Let's start with the salsa, I enjoyed the flavor but extremely spicy, and the creamy jalapeño sauce was good but I think it'd be better enjoyed on a salad which they do serve there as well! I ordered the popular Boom Boom Enchiladas. Presentation was amazing, but personally, I don't know if this was a bad day or if they are always made this way but the tortilla was extremely thick and tough and the chicken was dry on the inside. It didn't resemble an authentic baked enchilada but rather two rolled tacos with sauce poured on top. The sauce was good, pretty much a spicy queso. I also ordered the chile con queso and I honestly couldn't tell a difference in taste besides the Boom Boom sauce being spicier. I enjoyed the rice and beans, the beans had a good smokey flavor. In conclusion, I don't think I will be returning, but my waitress was extremely kind and hardworking. read more

Chuy's in Cypress has great! We got their queso with ground beef, the tortilla soup and crunchy tacos with refried beans/rice. Both were amazing! We really enjoyed our meals and the service was excellent! Great environment for family. Madi was our server. She was very courteous and timely! Additionally, another server, James, helped us clean up when I spilled water everywhere. Truly enjoyed the experience! Would recommend to family and friends! read more

Always great food and good service. Consistent tasting at several locations I've visited. The salsas are very tasty. Chicken chimichanga is the best. read more

This is a fun and colorful restaurant. The hostess was helpful and fast to seat us. Our server lady was nice and knowledgeable but didn't bring what we asked for until it was too late. The chips were a little greasy but the sauces are good and Lots of sauces to pick from. The salsa is not puréed. It is small diced tomatoes with a spicy kick. Tasted great! The prices are fair and food tasted good. I loved my cheese enchilada with con carne sauce, but the taco meat could have used more seasoning. Don't deter from eating here, it is worth a try. I would eat here again. read more

Can't visit Texas without getting Chuy's. Their most popular dish is the Chicka-chicka Boom-boom, which is two chicken enchiladas with their famous sauce. While the enchiladas were great, their drink options are even better. You can order any flavored Frozen margarita and even have two flavors swirled in together. I had the strawberry margarita and wish I could've ordered a mojito as well. I would recommend trying one of the many Chuy's locations if you're in town. read more

I wanna start this review really quick night experience with restaurant service is usually very disappointing so I only mentioned service if it is good or better that's just a disclaimer. If I don't recognise the server, that means the service was bad. I ordered the chicken chicken boom enchiladas, subbing the hatch green chile sauce as I really enjoy it this way. My server confirmed my request and within a few minutes, I had my food. Exactly as I ordered it. Very happy so far (except for the lousy music , but thats neither here nor there) The server came back to check on me, good thing because the hatch green chile sauce is making my nose run, needed one more napkin . So overall, Jordan, my server was great, food was nice and spicy, good local place to eat. Fresh thin chips. read more

food was good. TO GO ASSOCIATE ERICA is trash tho. gave me my to go order just to continue to have a conversation with another guest while I'm sitting there waiting to pay. then when I said "excuse me" she put her hand up and said "she's with a customer". basically I was sitting there with my food for at least 8 minutes. too long when all I had to do was pay. she's a rude and inconsiderate employee and tried to treat me like I didn't matter. f*** her. read more

I'm usually pretty happy and satisfied when I come here. I would hands down recommend their Chicka Chicka Boom Boom (sometimes with extra sauce) and if you want an extra kick do a side of serranos! Their Guac is also very good. Second reason I like them is their happy hour. Unfortunately I don't believe it's happening during COVID but usually they have a free 'nacho' truck with queso, ground beef, chips, and beans and decently priced margaritas. They definitely sway between a 3 and 4 but I definitely come back for their enchilada and their happy hour! read more

Chuy's - Mexican Near Me - Houston, Texas

I went to this establishment for the first time on Cinco de Mayo with great expectations of a great time... unfortunately I had everything but. The place was of course packed and at maximum noise level at 5PM but I wasn't expecting to have to sit close to the emergency exit in the very rear of the restaurant. The service was mediocre at best. Cage, our waiter, started out doing really well. He greeted me as soon as I sat down and immediately asked me for my drink order. My drink came out in less than 5 minutes, but unfortunately it tasted like margarita mix without the required tequila. The queso and salsa was super watery and unfortunately it negatively effected the flavor. When it was time to order, he made some excellent suggestions and was able to give a very detailed description of each dish that he suggested. So, based on what he recommended, I decided to try the new TexMex burrito bowl with an order of the avacado crema on the side. When the dish made it to the table, however, I was very disappointed. There was more lettuce than anything else in the bowl... I could count the number of black beans in it (literally like 10 to 15) and the rice was pretty much nonexistent. Not to mention, it came without my order of avacado crema. I brought it to the attention of the waitress who brought out the food and she said she would check on it and never returned. I told Cage when he came back and he pointed at a small drizzle in the corner of my bowl and said that was the crema I ordered. Yeah.. I took two bites and decided I didn't want a dry salad for dinner so I returned it and ordered the new creamy green chile chicken enchiladas with refried beans and Mexican rice. This was a much, much better choice. 8/10 hands down. After I received this delicious treat, I ordered another round of margaritas and requested an extra shot of grand Marnier be placed in them. This time the drinks were much better but still had a ridiculous amount of ice. Around this time, Cage started removing plates, cleaning off the table, and sneakily placed our ticket on the table. When he came back around approximately 5 to 10 minutes later to check on us, I asked for a dessert menu and instead he just named the two desserts. I ordered a slice of the tres leches cake. The slice was HUGE and absolutely mouth-watering. Unable to finish everything, we asked for boxes. Cage came back with them less than five minutes later and said something to the effect of "Okay ladies, you all have a good night". I politely let him know that we weren't quite ready to leave and he gave a very brief look of annoyance and then walked away. And away he stayed for well over 20 minutes. When he returned, I ordered another margarita and he came back twice to ask me how I wanted it. I repeated it the exact same way each time (totaling 3 times). Unfortunately, my order was incorrect and before I could advise Cage of his mistake, he had vanished yet again and by that time I was fed up. I paid for the meal and left a large tip mainly because I no longer wanted to wait around to see if he would return to ask me if I needed any change. I definitely won't be returning. read more

DON'T ORDER DELIVERY DELIVERY: It has been legal in Houston for alcoholic beverage orders to be delivered since the pandemic and yet this location does not allow it. Tonight I dropped $65 on delivery for 3 meals, extra Creamy J and a small dessert, ( 2 of which were kid meals.) I was denied my New Mexican Martini, even though it let me add it to the cart after selecting delivery, it errored out every time I tried to pay and finally popped up telling me that alcohol wasn't allowed and I had to remove it. DINE IN : Speaking of pandemic days, they also only still have a half menu and only offer "fast food" packets of salt and pepper rather than shakers ( which super annoys me because I use way too much salt) but also I find it kind of trashy for a decent restaurant, you might as well be a Taco Bell. OVERALL: Honestly I am not that into the food at Chuy's. The creamy J and the New Mexican Martini ( which is a spicy margarita in a martini glass) are the reason that we eat here. I mean, they don't even have proper salsa! The staff at the 290 location are usually on point and that does help but for the love of ....{your customers} sort yourself out Chuy's. I want my New Mexican with delivery and a salt shaker when I dine in! read more

You have to scream to hear what the table is talking about. Horrible acoustics. I will not be back.

Food was just OK, had better at other Chuy's locations, the margaritas were the worst, they were bitter, too much something, not good. The service was the worst. Sat down and saw our waitress 5 mins later, order drinks and had to ask 10 min later to see when we would get them, got them 5 min later. Seem like the waitress and cooks took an extra long break because it took 20-25 min to get our food and there was a minimal amount of customers in the place. Waitress came by about 15-20 min after we got of food and took my plate, didn't see her for the next 15 min so we got up and went to the front to pay, found the manager and told her were ready to go, scratched through the tip which I have never not tipped before, anywhere, she did not deserve one, horrible service. Never going back. read more

I went for Cinco de Mayo. It was crowded, but that was expected. But I like that I was able to get seated right away.

First off let me say the restaurant was absolutely freezing, but that's got nothing to do with the food. The food I would give a rock solid 3 1/2 out of 10 I guess if you're starving fine! Other than that, what can I say it's it's just crummy. That's all you're starving. It's better than nothing but that's about it. Sorry for giving it a crummy review but anything else would be a lie in my opinion. read more
