I love Chuy's. It's honestly a good chain. Way back in the day I fell into margaritas for the first time at a Chuy's. I've dined a few times at Chuy's Music Row, mostly as a takeout customer. One of the takeout employees is great but stops just short of perfection. She one time forgot to do the service industry essential of telling the customer "The bottom's hot, be careful." So, I unfortunately burned the bottom of my hand. Unfortunately, I recently had a highly unpleasant interaction with a different takeout employee. This person felt the need to lie to me and say that there was free queso and plasticware included in my bag. She then looked over my shoulder and pressured me to tip. Funny story, I normally tip on takeout. I even tipped on this past takeout experience despite the aggressive employee. Going forward, I may just join what most people do and never tip on takeout again. read more

We were staying next door at the doubletree hotel and it was raining so we decided to go somewhere close by and it was a great decision. We were seated quickly and they took our drink orders right away, everyone ordered various margaritas and they were very good. The food options were not your normal Mexican restaurant standards and the food everyone ordered at our table was excellent! I would definitely recommend it and I will revisit if I'm in the area again read more

We came here for national taco day where they give you a free entree if you are dressed like a taco. Live the fun colorful decor inside. Service was a bit slow but they seemed short staffed. Server was nice and attentive, and brought us everything we needed (extra sour cream etc) even though the dishes were technically free. Walked here so didn't need to look for parking but I believe there is paid street parking nearby. read more

Why did I go to TexMex in Nashville? I don't know. It didn't feel like TexMex, or Tex, or Mex. In the end it was food, which was needed, and we moved on. read more

Came here recently with a friend and had an okay experience. On the bright side, our server was very kind and funny and we also received our food very quickly. Also, the restaurant has a bright, fun look inside. However, the food was meh. I got a taco salad which was fine. The meat could've been seasoned more and I would've like more guacamole on the bowl. I didn't like the queso. My friend got beef fajita tacos and there wasn't much meat in the tacos. Portion sizes were pretty decent though. Prices are a little steep for the food you get in my opinion. Overall: would prefer to try a different Mexican restaurant in the area that's more affordable or with better food than return, but service was great and obviously so is location. read more

The service was perfect, the environment was vibrant and calm, and the food tasted great. We ordered crispy taco and burrito. Size of each meal was large and it was enough for 3. I loved the burrito even though I am a fan of tacos read more

not real Mexican food. Vents are nasty look up when you sit in a booth drinks not good. Waiter was nice. Not a wide variety on menu. Would not go again. read more

Great food! We were able to walk from our hotel. We ate on the patio since we had our dog. Yes dog friendly. Several employees walked out to say hey to the dog. The patio is great if you like to people watch. Our server was very polite and friendly. The food came out quickly. Love all the sauces. read more

Wanted to eat dinner before the opry. Checked a couple other places and couldn't get in fast enough to get done before the show. Chuy's had no wait so we chanced it. There is a reason they had no wait. It wasn't very good. Big space but it was mostly empty at 5:30. Chips and salsa were very good. The color of the salsa was off-putting but it was fresh and homemade tasting. Just like you would make fresh at home. Chimichanga had a really weird filling, kind of like a spinach artichoke dip white cheesy kind of thing. If it had been just regular chicken like literally every other tex-mex place EVER, it would have been fine. It was fried well and the queso under it was good, but the filling was just weird. Didn't enjoy it at all. We accomplished our goal of having something to eat and getting out in time for the opry, but we didn't enjoy the meal at all. Parking in front of Chuy's works fine for the opry, but you do need to walk in the street in the mostly dark lot to get back to your car after the show. I would have preferred the other end of the mall in retrospect. read more

High quality food, nice environment, kind waiters, everything you could ask for! Now, while the food was good, what makes me love Chuy's are the sauces. So many different kinds for well made chips. Every time I've gone there, I finish the chips in about seven minutes. read more

Service here was so great. Ray took amazing care of us and wanted to make sure we had the best experience possible. The food was good. Portions could have been a little larger but maybe that's my bias from other Mexican restaurants I frequent. Chips were great as was the margarita. Ambiance and vibe were eclectic and fun. Definitely worth a stop in. read more

Service was good, however... the food so basic at best. The steak and chicken tacos I ordered were way over cooked and the grilled onions and peppers that sold me on this entree were barely there. $9 for queso. I wouldn't recommend this place to anyone. read more

Went to Chuy's in Nashville yesterday for lunch. We usually go to the Opry Mills or Cool Springs locations but we were in the area. When we arrived there was nobody at the host stand, a few ladies ahead of us waiting to get sat and then more people arrived after us. We waited a couple minutes before anyone came up and we were sat at a table. The hostess was very sweet when she finally got to us though. Misty was our server. Very sweet girl but our service could have been better. Our regular drinks took a while to come out and when they did she told us to try the cokes because the syrup might have been low. They were watered down so we had to wait some more to get them replaced. Wish she would have changed the syrup before bringing them out If she knew it was no good. Those were 3 out of the 4 regular drinks we ordered. Also ordered a frozen margarita with our first round of drinks which took even longer and when it did, it was melted. We could tell it had been sitting at the bar a while before it got dropped off. Again, she said to let her know if it was too watery and she could get it replaced. We had already waited too long for it so we decided to just keep it. Again, if she saw it was already melted by the time she got to it she could have gotten it remade before delivering it to the table. Next was the food. I ordered a chicken quesadilla for my kid but he got a regular kids quesadilla without chicken. My husband ordered a chuychanga and added fajita chicken to it. We got a regular pulled chicken chuychanga, which was pretty good! But not how we ordered it. She mentioned that the kitchen was a bit backed up and there might not have been enough chicken in the chuychanga but if we needed a side of chicken She could bring one out. Not really sure what she meant by that. It was a bit of an awkward interaction. We had already been in the establishment longer than expected so we decided to not send any food back and having to wait longer for it. I think there were preventative steps she could have taken to make our experience a bit more enjoyable. I had no problems with the green chile fried chicken I ordered which was delicious and my other son had no problems with his cheeseburger. We would gladly return to this location but would probably request a different server. read more

3.5 Went for take out at the location on Church St. and got a veg enchilada with no cheese and rice/beans. Food was tasty but the enchiladas were spicy. They gave a huge bag of chips with sauces along with my order. The service was friendly and fairly quick. The restaurant was big and colourful but I only stayed at the checkout counter. There was a bar as well as a dining area. read more

chuys was right next to our hotel so it was a convenient stop. i know i can always find a vegan option at a mexican style restaurant. I ordered the veggie enchiladas without cheese. the beans and rice were pretty dry and the enchiladas were just okay. the chips and salsa were good and the service was good as well but there are much better food options in the area. read more

Delicious, top-notch tacos in fresh tortillas. The menu's fairly big, and the prices are all right. Great decor and a well-rounded selection of food. The fajitas, tacos, and chips are all top-notch and round out the experience. Overall it's solid Tex-Mex I keep coming back to. read more

I dont know what Elvis Presley has to do with Mexican food, but it was actually very good. The ground beef enchilada was amazing. Beans were very solid too. Service was very hospitable and friendly. Southern charm for sure. We were in and out due to time. read more

Chuy's is always a great time for quick food and good prices. I think one of their best parts is the free chips and salsa and the creamy jalapeño dip that they offer as starters. I got the Chuychanga with chicken as the filling and it was decent with rice and beans. I chose the chika chika boom boom sauce which was a spicy kick. Nicely fried and it was meaty. For drinks, I got the blackberry frozen margarita and the strawberry margarita on the rocks. Good prices, but way too sweet. For large parties, you can't make reservations or call ahead even if you're 10 mins away. However, they did seat us pretty quickly. read more

the absolute worse "Mexican" food I have ever had. they brought me out the most rubbery steak for my fajitas I have ever seen. looked microwaved. will never come back to this establishment. read more

Hostess was very kind, nice smile & friendly. We were served very quickly. We drove from Hendersonville just to go to this place. Nothing good in our area. From hand made tortillas I had chicken enchiladas & a taco that was fabulous. Lots of chicken & hamburger (& not the moochie hamburger either). My wife had a chili Reanno added to her meal that she really loved. Choice of sauces were so good. Took almost an hour to get there but we definately will be back. A good restaurant is well worth the drive. A shout out to our friendly waitress. Can't wait to go back! read more

Used Doordash. The food was cold, missing items: No Quacamole, No Sour Cream, No 2nd Side Item. If that wasn't enough, the order was delayed because the Dasher was busy chasing a rabbit in my yard, delaying the order !! No one could make this sh*t up! Both DD & Chuys SUCKS !! read more

The service was the worst that I have ever had. Our Waiter was drunk and kept forgetting things. The food was also really disgusting. My soft tacos with beef are the worst that I have ever had. read more

Went to Chuy's last night for an impromptu dinner date (just note this is more of a restaurant for groups of rowdy college students than a dinner date spot). Service was good and speedy and food was decent. I wasn't as impressed by the chicka-chicka boom-boom enchilada as I usually am. It was like -fine- but nothing special. The sauce had a glazed look I didn't love and I really wish they had mole sauce here, but alas. The meat for the fajitas was actually very tasty and cooked well. This serving (for 1) was huge! The refried beans were also good, but the tortillas were really weird was not a fan. We also got a frozen mango marg and a lime and strawberry swirl marg and gotta say wasn't a huge fan. My swirl marg was primarily strawberry, and we didn't finish them because they were soooo sweet and tasted more like a slushy than an alcoholic drink (and no this is not my first time having a frozen margarita). I would go again with a group of friends for the fun and cute aesthetic, but not exactly for the culinary experience. read more

Always great service, awesome margaritas and chips and queso for die for!! We use to visit the one in Tally until it was closed. Surprised and so excited when we ran into this one here!! read more

Used to be incredible but ever since they sold to Darden, they changed all the recipes. Now the beans and rice are flavorless, the tortillas are rubbery, the tres leches tastes frozen, the salsa isn't the same...mega corporations doing what they always do: They buy a successful chain, cut corners on food costs and quality control to increase their profit margins, then throw their hands up in disbelief, wondering where all the customers went‍ read more

I have been to Chuy's a handful of times with no luck. I enjoy most Mexican food but Chuy's was always a disappointment which did not bode well because it's my boyfriend's favorite place. Their quesadillas are a big no, their chips are alright and the tacos were meh. Tonight I gave it another try and ordered the comida deluxe which came with a little bit of everything. Verdict: not too shabby! I still was not a huge fan of the beef taco or the queso dipped tostada, but the cheese enchilada and chicken flautas were great! A giant portion of food for a decent price and our waitress was very attentive and quick. read more

Not worth the hype! You are packed like sardines inside and $84 for a fajitas meal for 2 is kind of steep. I just don't think I will be returning, sorry. read more

I am a very plain eater so I can not comment on the rice or refried beans or anything. My wife said they were food. We had lunch on a Wednesday and were seated promptly. The reataurant is sizeable, has a large bar area and can easily handle large groups. We saw multiple groups of ten or so in for lunch. The decor is standard Mexican restaurant decor but it is not over the top like some places. Also, they were not playing Mexican music overhead. It was the type of music your local "the best of the 80s, 90s, and today" radio starion would play. It was a welcome change. I ordered a regular-sized house margarita and it was nothing spectacular but it was tasty. The chips were warm and the salsa was medium-thick and had just enough bite to it. When I go to Mexican restaurants, i order a grilled chicken quesadilla with only chicken and cheese. Again, I am a plain eater. I did not see this anywhere on the menu, so I asked the waiter if they could make it for me and he said it would not be a problem. My quesadillias were good and she liked her tacos. We spent $34 for the two of us and that included $7 for the margarita. Very reasonable prices for Midtown Manhattan. This location is walking distance from many of the hotels in Midtown. read more

We didn't know this was a chain when we first sat down since we are from out of state, but man was it good! We ordered the panchos (nachos) with fajita chicken. The chicken was tender and well seasoned. We also had the chicken flautas and chicka-chicka boom boom enchiladas. The flautas were very tasty: but the enchilada took the cake. The sauce was a spicy queso, which had a nice kick and was delicious. We also had the grande house margs, which were tasty, albeit a bit weak. Only rhint I didn't love was the homemade hot sauce, which was neither hot nor had a good flavor. Overall a great experience. Would recommend. Our waitress was also on top of things. read more

Kinda perplexed by the negative reviews (Well, Jack must be the male equivalent of a "Karen". If your only reviews are 1-star, get a life). Been in town for a month of work, eaten here 5-6 times, always pretty consistent. I think the flavors can be a little middle of the road (salsa has been hit or miss, sometimes way too tomato forward) and I've been wanting more cheese on some things (Comida plate for example) but overall for what it is, a chain Mexican restaurant, pretty solid. Chicken tortilla soup is the best I've ever had. And the service has been consistently great. Both my servers on the floor were terrific and Kelly at the bar is great. read more

Nothing special and the service was meh. Go to Velvet Taco, it's close and this place can't even come close.

My family and I were seated by a host that really didn't seem like he wanted to be there. We sat and waited and waited with not one staff member acknowledging that we were even there. After around 10 minutes another table was seated and they were immediately given chips and salsa. It was that point that I decided it was time to leave. Will never go back to this place again. Staff all look mad and that they don't want to be there. Avoid this place. read more

Ok so my daughter and I wanted to have a margarita while vacationing in Nashville. We saw the reviews and was on the fence about going there. We went and so were so happy we went in! Place was busy, colorful and everyone looked happy. Then we sat at the bar and then it happened, my eyes locked on a beautiful human being named Kelly, he was the bartender. He was funny, made a damned,really damned and even more damned good patron margarita! His manner with people was beyond wonderful and it's so cute that he calls people "boo". Chips,salsa and guacamole were good! In fact I am craving them right now but I live in California. I can't wait to go back! Thank you for Kelly and the wonderful visit! read more

No Bueno. Everything's salty and bland. There is no real value as it's overpriced for what it is. Never feel good after eating it.

Place has a nice laid back vibe. Service was friendly and attentive. Salsa was good. Had the chicken enchiladas with tomatillo sauce. They were fine...not bad but nothing special. Prices were pretty good. read more

The tacos were flavorful, filling, and delicious! We loved the quick and efficient service as well. My favorite aspect was the lovely design of the entire inside and outside of the restaurant. The authentic paintings, mosaics, and 1960s feel was adorable and really heightened our experience! We will return. read more

Another reason you should look at rating of a business, If you like crunchy tacos with more then a teaspoon of ground beef on them don't go there. Just more people with a greedy dream the don't give a rats ass about what they serve, their seasoning techniques is a lot of black pepper, all in all stay away, to many stock owner's! read more
