We came here for dinner one night and we liked it. The chips were pretty good and i liked the ranch and queso dips. I got the cheese quesadillas and fries. The cheese quesadillas were good and the fries were solid. Our waitress was friendly and doing a good job. The ambiance was interesting and had decorations that stood out like hubcaps on the ceiling in one room. I recommend coming here with friends.

Dirty bathroom

On the plus side-- service was good and my steak burrito was pretty good! I really enjoyed the tres leches cake too since it wasn't too sweet :) but some fresh berries would've improved it. For cons side-- rice was half cooked so I lot of the grains were hard in the middle. You can kind of see it in the pic. Also, The bathroom was pretty dirty which always makes me think about how clean the kitchen is kept. So overall, average experience.

This is your average Tex Mex joint located within the hustle and bustle of international drive. Food is okay, but I prefer the more authentic stuff but once again, this is Tex Mex. Sadly the service was... not that great. Our waitress was not attentive and she would say she would be "right back" and disappear for quite some time. Their queso and the house white sauce (can't remember what it was called) were the stars of the show.

I was so excited to visit Chuy's in Orlando after falling in love with their Miami location (only to have it close less than a year after opening). So naturally, eating here was high on my to-do list while on vacation, and I'm happy to report: it did not disappoint! The food was just as amazing as I remembered: fresh, flavorful, and satisfying. Their salsa has the perfect spicy kick, and I am completely addicted to their tomatillo sauce, especially on the enchiladas. Pro tip: you can order items à la carte, which made my second visit even more customized and delicious. Yes, I ate here twice during my trip, because the experience was that good. The atmosphere is bright, quirky, and fun...totally Chuy's. Even for a chain, the service and quality was exceptional. Big kudos for the silent drink and chip refills. I'm genuinely grateful I got to revisit a spot I had such a strong connection to. Here's hoping they bring Chuy's back to Miami (please, Kendall needs you!). Until then, I'll be dreaming about my next trip to Chuy's.

Chicken Flautas

Super fun experience at this Chuy's!! They was mostly due to our awesome service Alexis! He was so fun and personable and knew how to have a good time. We joked with him about a "grande" coke and he brought an entire pitcher for 1 person haha!! He was so great and attentive!! The food was equally as good, I never had a bad experience at Chuys. It's actually the only place I can find HATCH Green Chili sauce! No where else has it and I loveeee getting the enchiladas with the hatch green chili on it! Rice and beans here are always amazing as well. Always a top pick for me to come here when I want good enchiladas and a margarita! Get a frozen one!

Elvis Memorial Combo

Chuy's Tex-Mex is a family favorite! My parents and I come here a couple of times a month, and it never disappoints. We usually go for an early lunch, and we're always seated quickly. The service is consistently great--friendly, attentive, and efficient. One of the highlights is definitely the chips--they're thin, crispy, fresh, and perfectly seasoned. And if they don't automatically bring the white sauce with the salsa, ask for it! It's creamy, tangy, and totally addictive. On this visit, I had the Elvis Memorial Combo. Everything on the plate was fresh, flavorful, and satisfying--it's such a generous portion that I always end up taking half of it home. My parents ordered the chicken Chuychanga, which they loved. It came out hot, crispy, and packed with delicious flavor. Chuy's continues to be one of our go-to spots for great Tex-Mex and quality time together. We'll definitely keep coming back!

Chuys has one pf the beat Mexican food in orlando. Their boom boom sauce is a must try. Everything we ordered came with veggies beans and rice. The enchiladas were great, tacos were super filling and the chille relano was excellent. Our server was new at the outlet but pretty sweet. We ended our meal with tres leches which was so good. The place reminds you of mexico with all the colors n stuff

Chicken Flautas
Destiny W.

Was able to get our big party seated fairly quickly! Service was ok, server wasn't too engaged but the food was amazing!

Amelia M.

Stoped in here for a quick bite. Was feeling for Tex-Mex food. Food was exactly what we expected, Tex Mex (your standard dishes). I opted for the chicken flautas and my husband had the fajita quesadilla. The sauces were all flavorful and they had an extensive menu option. Service was great! Our waiter was attentive. The restaurant looks a little run down inside, could use a little more cleanup but not completely terrible. 8/10 food

Chicken panchos
Elizabeth M.

Came here on a Sunday night and was relieved that there was no wait time (even though the restaurant was packed). The service was quick and the waitress was attentive. The portion sizes are huge which is great for sharing or for having leftovers. I love that they give you the chips and salsa while you wait for your food - the jalapeño ranch dip is A++++ in my book! For a party of 2, we ordered the chicken ponchos which is enough on its own as a meal. I then ordered the fajita steak/beef bowl. It was my first time ordering it and I think it may be my new go-to. The steak was perfectly cooked and perfectly seasoned. Highly recommend getting this! Also, it's a very family friendly place at a really convenient location for those going to the parks.

There's all kinds of interesting things in the eclectic decor at Chuy's, including Kirk Douglas, Donna Reed and Fred Astaire.

There aren't a lot of places in Florida with Tex-Mex fare like we used to get in Dallas. After the Chevy's locations closed in Orlando, we were glad to find Chuy's had come to town. In the past we've had really good experiences at other Chuy's in Jacksonville and Orlando, but our first visit to this one on International Drive was an exception. It was a Saturday night and the place was jammed so we knew service might be slower than usual. At Chuy's the silverware comes in small paper bags but one of ours was missing a fork. It took over 10 minutes to get a waitress back to our table to let them know we needed one, and even after making that request one was never brought. The food was also not up to the quality we expected. Hoping for better if we give them another try.

Tres leches
Javier R.

Always a great time at chuy's . Food is delicious and the staff go beyond their way to make sure your time there is excellent. Very appreciative of the extra effort the staff and management team made to make our dinner excellent.

Cheese enchiladas with double rice
Annie N.

Chuy's is a local Mexican chain restaurant, and this one is my favorite location. This one is located on International Drive next to the Escape Game. I have been here many times with my husband, family and friends and we have always had a great experience. They have a really fun vibe with lots of colors, pictures of doggies everywhere and hubcaps on the ceiling. They have booths and tables and seating at the bar as well, along with seating outside. If you go early you can be seated quickly. If it gets later into dinner you are going to wait. I don't mind waiting because they have a bar and what's better with Mexican food than a Margarita! They are so good and can be really large! I love the frozen Mango Margarita. They start you off with chips and salsa. I also asked for creamy jalapeno sauce instead of the salsa. The creamy jalapeno is spicy but I love it and use it on everything! I usually order the same thing, cheese enchiladas with the Tex Mex sauce. This comes with two enchiladas with cheese and the sauce of your choice along with beans and rice. YUM OH! I don't like refried beans, so I always get double rice. Tip: add the creamy jalapeno sauce and ask for extra cheese and add both to the rice!! That combination for me is so delicious. I have also had the fajitas (steak and chicken), and the tortilla soup. Everything is really delicious. I have never had a bad meal here. Everything tastes so fresh and comes out hot and is really just delicious. My parents always get the fajitas (they have for 1 or for 2) and share them. They come with the standard fajita toppings along with beans and rice. My husband always gets the salad which is loaded with chicken and vegetable toppings, as well as cheese and avocado. It is more on the healthier side, but it is really good. Their tortillas are made fresh, with an employee hand rolling and cooking them in the restaurant. I am a big fan of Mexican food, and yes this is a chain with locations around, but it is a really great chain. Everything is fresh, it tastes awesome and is just really good! You definitely need to try it. It does get busy in the evening so you might have to wait but it is worth it. I really like this location, the staff is always great and friendly, the food is delicious, the parking lot is pretty large but again it can get crowded. This is a great location on International Drive.

Although a little different in decor, every Chuy's has the hand painted swimming fish, the hubcap ceiling, and the shrine to Elvis which was a fixture of the original store. I had a great first Chuy's experience with my girlfriend Holly in Pembroke Pines. On a recent trip to visit my daughter in Winter Park we passed Chuy's in Lakeside Crossing and remembering how much I liked it, I suggested we dine here for dinner. In addition to the multiple dining rooms, they also have outside patio seating. We were seated in my favorite room, the dog one. If you bring in a picture of your pup you can get a free appetizer so the walls are covered with pictures of people's dogs. This room also worked out best for us because it had two TV's and we could watch the Super Bowl. We started off with their complimentary chips that come with a spicy salsa fresca and a Chuy's signature item, creamy jalapeño dressing. It started out as a dressing and it is now a dip with a following. You can even purchase it to take home with you. Two dips can never be enough so we also ordered the queso that is a beloved menu item for good reason. The menu has a number of Tex-Mex favorites like burritos, tacos, and fajitas. Chuy's is especially known for their large portions. They also make all of their own tortillas and sauces. You can customize how spicy you want your food by pepper choice and sauce. I ordered my favorite steak burrito with double rice, no beans. I replaced the spicy hatch chili sauce with the creamy deluxe tomatillo recommended by our server. It was chef's kiss. My daughter and her boyfriend said they really liked their food too and with the large portion size, ended up having leftovers to take home with them. I love the quirky decor, value, and tasty food. We were in the mood for filling meal with a casual vibe and Chuy's hit the spot.

I had my thoughts on the frozen raspberry margarita that I had the time before that was so delicious but unfortunately they did not have that flavor this time. I got the strawberry and lime frozen margaritas swirled together with a sugar rim. The margarita was pretty good. I'd give it 3 out of 5 stars. For an entree, I ordered the chicken flautas. This comes with rice and refried beans. When served, the entree came with 6 flautas which to me seemed like a decent portion. I was very disappointed though because there was barely any meat inside each one and I swear there was no cheese. Which cheese makes the dish. They were extremely dry and I only ate like 2. The rice and beans made up for the dish. I appreciate the salsa and chips that get brought out to each table.

Disclaimer: this review is for the lunch buffet only…read more I went with my family to try the $18.49 all you can eat lunch buffet. This was my first time experiencing a buffet for hispanic food and for this price point in Orlando, this is an amazing value deal. The server regularly brought us out silverware, napkins, and refilled our water. The place is decorated very fun and plays latin music which was lovely Not only was there an unlimited assortment of lunch foods, but an entire bar of fresh toppings for tacos (or rice bowls) and made to order desserts which were included for free! Not everything on the buffet line was the best but given the amount of options, price, and how good the great items are this is still worth a five star rating. I unfortunately did not take pictures of the food before I began devouring everything in sight to the point of near-collapse, but I will do a quick rundown of the buffet highlights: The best meats were the fajita steak, chicken, and shrimp made fresh in cast iron skillets, as well as the chicken lengua which was super flavorful and tender. The mexican rice, beans, fajitas, plantains, and street corn were also excellent. Fresh quesadillas, chips, and corn tortillas on standby with homemade queso and salsas. The flan and mini churros were the best I've ever had. Super rich, decadent Carmel flan. Mini churros hot and crisp on the outside, filled with a gooey soft milk chocolate center. They were delicious. Items that were disappointing: the tamales, mini chicken flautas, and beef chimichangas were just okay, lacking the seasoning and flavor that other dishes had. The beef barbacoa was not as tender or flavorful as the shredded chicken surprisingly. The mixed seafood was itself a mixed bag with some shrimps / scallops overcooked to much while others were perfectly cooked. The chicken mole and beef tri tip were room temperature despite sitting on hot plates. The tri tip also varied widely in doneness throughout the slices and not super tender. The rice pudding was pretty standard, and the tres leches cake was weird as they crumbled the cake into pieces before soaking it.

The restaurant itself is very nice inside clean, well designed, and has a welcoming atmosphere. There's also a parking garage nearby, which makes it convenient. When we arrived, it wasn't too busy, and it took our server about 4 minutes to greet us. Once she did, she was incredibly friendly and accommodating, especially since I have a shellfish allergy. That definitely stood out and made me feel comfortable dining there. They start you off with complimentary chips and dips, which were amazing and a great way to kick off the meal. For my main, I ordered the chipotle queso enchiladas along with the Perfect Paloma. The drink lived up to its name it was refreshing, flavorful, and honestly one of the highlights of the meal. We also tried the supreme nachos, which were good overall, but the beans were a bit overpowering compared to the other toppings. As the restaurant started to get busier, things did slow down a bit, and the food took longer than expected because they were backed up. That said, our server continued to check in on us and kept a great attitude the entire time. When the enchiladas finally came out, they did not disappoint. The chipotle queso enchiladas were absolutely delicious full of flavor and definitely something I'd order again. The only downside was the rice, which was a little hard and not as enjoyable as the rest of the plate. Overall, Uncle Julio's offers a great dining experience with excellent service, a clean environment, and some really standout menu items. A few small issues with timing and sides, but nothing that ruined the experience. Rating: 4/5

Unfortunately missed the mark on our visit…read more First off, we were enticed by their advertisement for half price cocktails. We went in during Happy Hour expecting to sip a drink while we waited for food. Despite advertising Half Off Cocktails, when the server finally arrived we were informed that it only applied to about six margaritas on their menu, not 'cocktails' as advertised. We didn't complain to the server, as we assumed it wasn't his policy. Disappointing and misleading. We did end up ordering a variety of margaritas, which were disappointing to our crew for various reasons. Mine was acceptable but not exciting, though. I got the swirl with sangria. We checked in online and got the free 'guac'. I wish I'd snapped a photo, as it arrived without an attempt at presentation, just two scoops of mushed avocado on a plate. It needed more seasoning, which was unfortunate because there was no salt at our high top table. Nachos were decent, but soggy. I asked for extra jalapenos, which I did receive and they gave my plate more flavor. Service was fine. I felt bad that our server was both tending bar and taking orders as happy hour seemed to be a busier time for him. Overall, my experience was ho hum but my table partners were disappointed in the food, drinks, and experience. Hopefully yours is better than ours!

Both drinks were just drinkable, not great flavor and blah. For an appetizer we ordered Queso, Guacamole, and salsa. The cheese was delicious, the salsa was bland and only tasted like tomato, the guacamole was flavorless. The guacamole was in dire need of lime and salt. For dinner my kids ordered Steak, Birria Tacos with French Fries. They seemed to enjoy their food. My husband and I shared a Molcajete with steak, shrimp, chicken, and chorizo. The meat had good flavoring but was all mixed together. In many other restaurants the meat is separated so it's easier to assemble your tacos instead of digging through and sorting it out. For dessert we ordered Churros, and they were good. I've been coming to Don Julio's since they originally opened and was a quarter of the size. I understand with growth and success comes changes but I feel like the food isn't as good as it use to be. Don Julio's use to be one of my go to Mexican spots but after the past few visits I don't think I'll be returning.
