We order from here often and it is consistently awesome. It always tastes fresh and delicious. We order from a local delivery service and they always have order ready quick and correct. Its my favorite as well as my 3 year old daughter who is becoming a food critic herself. read more

Chuy's is my favorite weekday lunch spot. They always have parking and open tables. They have a punch card for frequent visitors, and a card jar for your office friends. The salsa is on point but the creamy dip is where it's at! I've tried several meals on the menu. Everything is delicious You can't go wrong with breading made of chips! read more

Service is great. Noise is over the top, like a bar. Chips are very good. Sauces are unique, but good. Fajita salad is very good. I had fajita enchilada and ground meat chili relleno with rice and beans. No bragging rights with enchilada. Fajita meat not seasoned. Deep fried chili rellenos was ok read more

Really good. Stopped by during happy hour where you can get unlimited nachos with a selection of ground meat, picko de Gallo, queso, and beans. Which was all very delicious. I got the chuychanga which is one of the house specials, which did not disappoint. It was stuffed with chicken and cilantro and some other tasty things laid on top a bed of queso and topped with sour cream. Our waitress, Erin, was very sweet and attentive. The restaurant hosts a variety of AMAZING and unique artwork where every room feels like a special art gallery just for your dining delight. No complaints. Enjoyed it very much thanks! read more

For those of you that want to eat and enjoy Mexican food, Chuy's is not the place. I took my girls for lunch. The restaurant wasn't busy. It took over 10 minutes for our waitress just get to the table. Then when our food arrived not all was served at the same time. I took one bite of my Chimichanga and it was just plain not good. My daughters cheese quesadillas were not good according to them. We ended up taking the food home. When I went to pay the bill my youngest asked why I was tipping at all. My daughter is 11. She knows good food when she eats it. The only thing that I have found good is the jalapeño dip. Step up your game Chuy's....I like your story. read more

Nice atmosphere and good food at a decent price. Waitress was a little absent. But would still come back and try it again. read more

See all

Their salsa is not the best in the world. It's chunks of tomatoes and onion. There tacos are mediocre at best.

The wait was about an hour and this was at 5 pm on a Saturday. Once in and seated the beer was cold and food was good. The burritos are huge, order childrens size or split with someone unless you are really hungry. Wait staff was prompt, friendly and attentive. Overall a good experience for a brand new restaurant in a very very busy part of Lafayette. read more

I work for DoorDash and they have poor time management for order pickups. I get paid by order and they are not on time for me to do my part of my job. For this reason I rate this restaurant with 1 star. I have watched them give many customers they're online orders but they seem to put DoorDash's on the side. It effects my salary very much, as well as the customers. read more

I was pleasantly surprised by the excellent service & rather wild atmosphere here. They claim Tex-Mex, so my my expectations were set low knowing they probably sold more quesadillas to chicks than anything else. I was wrong. Ya the menu screams chain food, but the mixed drinks were strong and had more fresh flavor than sweet and sour mixer. The chips and salsa ok. Our server brought us three extra salsas to try off the menu. Most good. Entrees were enjoyed by all my fellow samplers. Rice and beans not so good, but once again Tex-Mex gives them an out on authenticity. Loved the fresh tortillas, but thought it was a little racist to have a Hispanic girl working a booth in front of everyone. Overall a fun, enjoyable meal with some quality food mixed in. read more

Had the Mexican Cobb salad and was really good. Server was great, very friendly and attentive and got all the orders right!

Really good tex/mex food! Chuys on the same level as Blue Apache, Blus Agave. If you are looking for authenuc in Lafayette, La pagua or La portilio. read more

Went here for Cinco de Mayo, and we were very pleased with the service. We arrived at 4:30 they had no wait which we were surprised. Chips and dips were very good, red dip has the consistency of Pico de giyo but was very good green dip excellent. Cheese queso was really great! Ordered steak and chicken fajitas very tasty! Had a really good smoked flavor and tender Homemade tortillas were soft a little grainy but good Over all a great experience for our first time. My mother and sister in law had drinks and they arrived promptly, just tea for me since I am 8 months prego and food didnt take long to come to our table which was really nice. NOT really one to right reviews but with reading not so great reviews for this place decided to right one. We will be dining here again! read more

Great service food was hot and good also plenty for the price.there was no wait got right in food came out fast.

Bad drinks limited menu stay away from here. The fajita's was good and you got a decent amount with leftovers. Probably will not go there again as Lafayette, la has better food options. read more

This was the worst take-out I have EVERY tasted in my life, and I am not exaggerating in any way. The food was basically dried OUT and the flavor was non-existent. I will NEVER eat here again. Simple as that. read more

Good Tex Mex for a VERY affordable price. Not to mention, they give you great portions and their chips are fantastic! I would recommend anyone to go here, especially if they were on a budget. I was able to get 3 full dinners for ~$36. Their service is excellent as well. I've been here 6 times. read more

No stars..came from houston to visit family in Laffy. We went to complain about our service and our messed up Orders tonight and the general manager at this location told us to take our tickets and get the f$&k out and said he was calling the cops on us. I have never ever had an experience like this in a houston location. Chuys as a hole should do an internal investigation into the management of this location. read more

Have been here twice - The staff was very nice and the atmosphere was pleasant. Unfortunately, the food - well, was just a step above fast-food. Tried the Baja Tacos the first time, they were good, but definitely not great. Ordered a combination plate the second time, to get some variety - very disappointing. Extremely salty and the three items tasted exactly the same: a beef taco, a chicken chalupa and a cheese enchilada. The Chicken Tortilla soup was inedible because it was so spicy. Four of us ordered it and none of us could eat it. We all LOVE spicy food and eat it often, but this soup actually brought tears to our eyes! The manager did come to our table explain that this time of year the peppers used are extremely spicy from October to January. Pity - just the time of year you really want a great bowl of soup! read more

Loved the food and service! The jalapeño ranch dip was delicious, the enchiladas were excellent, and the drinks were perfect!

This place was worse than bad !!! 30 min wait and they have over 9 empty tables I counted. Couldn't set in bar. Said they were reserved ??? No one was ever seated in those. Service is worst than any Mexican restaurant I have been to read more

I'm a Chuys fan! We frequent the Chuys in Plano Tx and this Chuys in Lafayette is getting close to the same quality food and great service. I see on some of the previous reviews some had issues with food and service but tonight I have no complaints, service was spot on, the food ,,, fajitas, quesadillas, creamy jalapeño ( a must order for sure) enchiladas and all the fixens were great ! read more

Get the Elvis Green Chili Fried Chicken and some tortillas. Make the best wrap you've ever had!! The service is great here and they have a nice outside dining area. Come between 4-7 on week days and get free nacho bar. read more

THIS PLACE... It had a really warm and welcoming environment and our waiter was nice and quick.The decoration is insane in that place and I really like it. But.... The Food.... It was very plain and the beans I got were tasteless. I got the steak burrito and my steak inside the burrito was tasteless. Like just about everything else I had. Though, the creamy jalapeño sauce was pretty good with my chips. read more

The service was horrible. Sat there over 10 minutes before they took our drink order. When hey finally took the food order we waited another 25 minutes for it to be delivered. The food was terrible. I ordered a chimichanga and my BF ordered enchiladas. Neither of them were edible. As a matter of fact after the first- and only bite- we asked for the check. Th food tasted as thought the ingredients were bad. Very, very bad. Horrible experience. To make matters worse a child vomited in the floor next to our table. Took staff about 15 minutes to sloppily clean it up. The manager ,came to our table. And condescendingly told us next time she would "explain" the menu. Really? Explain the menu? I can read. I've eaten Mexican food all my life but no place has ever been so awful. Save your money and time and stomach....Taco Bell is a much better alternative than this place. Very disappointed. read more

Food and service is amazing! Our hostess was very knowledgeable and brought my friendships sauces to try. Our waitress, Katlin was amazing. We loved it! read more

Good Service. Friendly staff. Cold beers and Mojitos. Good Nachos. Nice seating area. Fun bar.

Judging from my previous reviews, one could easily tell that commercialism is not something I find overly enjoyable, but in the case of Chuy's, I'd say I have to make an exception. The bright colors coupled with the Elvis paintings at first seemed like a bit much, but after my encounter with the friendly staff, I couldn't help but feel comforted by all of the warm visual stimulators around me. My server, Kylee, was absolutely amazing, making great conversation, being extra attentive, and exhibiting a great knowledge of the menu via her tasteful food recommendations. I ordered the Elvis Green Chile Fried Chicken, but, taking the advice of Kylee, opted to add queso sauce in replacement of the green chile to lessen the spiciness of my meal. The chicken is fried in Lay's potato chips, which added a delightfully lighter-yet-crispier texture to the breading. The chicken itself was very juicy, and the queso supplemented it greatly, providing a kick but still allowing me to enjoy the cheesy flavor without being overwhelmed by the heat. The prices were very reasonable, with free chips and salsa being provided as an appetizer, and my dish (which consisted of chicken, beans, and rice) only costing $9.99. With its unique food, warming atmosphere, and outgoing, helpful staff, the only thing you may be disappointed about your experience at Chuy's is how much money you spent tipping because of the delightful service! read more

Chuy's - Elvis Green Chili Fried Chicken w/ queso instead of green chili sauce - Tex-Mex Near Me - Lafayette, Louisiana

I've probably had better food dumpster diving out a dumpster filled with fish and meat that has been in the sweltering sun for 3 days. The service was comparable to an inmate serving a correctional officer. Very little respect towards the customer and extremely unapologetic. I really would have liked to like this restaurant. But they messed up my order multiple times and were completely unapologetic about it. They made me feel bad for their mistakes. On the bright side, the Tex-Mex sauce was great. read more

I like it. We'll probably go back even though there are still so many restaurants in Lafayette we haven't tried yet. (and I was born and raised here!) The salsa was just a little spicy but I liked it. The queso compuesto was great. Definitely worth the price. I'd say the average price of meals was $9 or $10. There's a lot of visual stimulation in the restaurant like Posado's and it can be a little loud, but I felt like it was pretty clean. My Elvis chicken was good and my husband liked his combo fajitas. Next time I would follow advice of my server and switch the chili sauce for queso on the Elvis chicken just because it was good, but pretty hot. read more

I love Chuy's. I've been to many of their locations throughout Texas, and am thrilled that there is now one in Lafayette. Finding good TexMex outside of Texas is difficult, but Chuy's is consistently good at all the locations I have visited and this one is no exception. Don't forget about the free queso bar during happy hour! read more

my experience was horrible i will not be eating here again i can promise you that. the place is so cramped. the tables are way too small. my family of 4 at a table that should have been meant for 2. there was about 8 tables outside and about 2 were occupied. we asked for an outside table and they told us there was a 20 minutes wait when only 2 tables were occupied. once we got inside and seated our service was terrible. our waitress only came to us about 4 times in the 2 hours we were there. the food was honestly not good. the food was soggy and was overpriced. it's safe to say i will not be dining her again. again also the waitresses should be dress coded. i have seen so many ass cheeks i could have sworn i was at hooters. read more

Delicious food and FAST SERVICE! Everything was wonderful from the chips and salsa to the entrees! Great prices and drinks too! We found our New Mexican spot on the Northshore. Will be coming back! read more

Subpar service overall. I can tell the staff don't care about the job. However, I'm not sure if this due to management or just them personally. Only good thing about the experience was that our server (Mitch, awesome dude) was able to give me some soft tortillas because I wasn't about to spend $10 for 2 simple tacos, so instead had to get crunchy ones for 3. Beans seemed to resemble old dog food, and my rice was as flavorless and bland as the attitude the restaurant gives off. I really wanted to like this place from what I've heard about it. I sincerely hope the manager gets a wake up call soon and tries to salvage what's left out of this place. read more

So they still haven't put up our dog photos we brought almost a year ago. They keep telling me a manager will call and nobody does. So I was planning to eat here often, but I don't go at all quite honestly because of that. I was so looking forward to my adorable dog photos that I'd worked so hard having a photo shoot with them to get and nothing. Seems like they even lost them. Sad. Don't offer something you can't deliver, Chuy's. read more

What can I say, it's Chuy's! I've never visited one that wasn't awesome! This location had a shrimp enchilada special for Lent season which was nice. I got the cheese enchiladas and they were so good! Our waiter was awesome, the manager checked on us and this facility is really clean. Ask for the Jalapeno ranch dip for your chips, you want regret it. I also liked the different prayers to say before your meal on the utensil packet. It was a nice touch. read more

Best Tex Mex in town, fresh and made from scratch. Ask a server for samples of anything on the menu. If you haven't tried the different sauces a server can take you on a sauce tour. The margaritas are hands down the best in town. Fresh squeezed lime juice will always beat sweet and sour. If you haven tried this Chuys recently give them another shot. read more

We went to Chuy's on a Friday evening. We were given a wait time of 45 mins, but the nice staff working there made sure we could get in earlier. We were a party of 8, made to sit on two joined tables, not of the same height. The chips were so amazing. It was fresh and the sauces were out of this world.The Elvis Green Chile Fried Chicken was so amazing. The chicken, the vegetables and the guacamole were very fresh. Tasted amazing. The chicken Chalupa was pretty good. Me and my wife ordered the grandma's rocking rita and the Texas martini and I was very impressed by the drinks. The decor is something I think that needs to be worked on. It had a diner feel to it. The tables and the chairs as well. The two different sections of the restaurant felt like it had two different decors, giving it a feel of two different restaurants. The staff was amazing friendly. We had two people take orders, one for the drinks then another for the food, which might have been a little confusing. Otherwise, the staff was extremely friendly. Overall, it was a great experience and I would love to visit them again. Cheers! read more

Poor service at 4pm, food appeared and taste like it had been rehearsed several times. Staff was jumping all over the place, yelling like there was a party going on and not dressed properly to work with food. We have been to the Chuy's in San Antonio many times and loved that place. Never again Lafayette! read more

They get packed very quick. The tables are packed in tight. You will get up close and personal with the people around you. Now the food. For me chips and salsa was the best thing. I had the Elvis fried chicken was supposed to be coated with lays but couldn't tell it was ok fried chicken breast smothered with a salsa Verde and cheese. All I tasted was cheese. Beans no flavor rice was nothing special. Girlfriend had shrimp tacos she enjoyed them the fresh tortillas was what made them good. Drinks must be good because I don't understand the crowds because the food isn't anything special. I came but will probably never go back. read more
