The food was subpar at best, but our server OLIVIA was AWESOME Extremely friendly and outgoing. My daughter is transferring to UTSA and she gave us some pointers on apartments. read more

That blonde girl who looks like she's in her early/mid 30s who works behind the bar should be fired!! Horrible service and atrocious attitude. There's no reason she should be rolling her eyes and huffing at me for asking for a refill on water or for another margarita. It is literally your job. If you hate your job so much, get a different one!! If you hate interacting with people, don't work customer service!! It's that simple. Worst service I've ever gotten. My food was good though;))) but Chuy's, seriously, DO BETTER!!!!!! read more

It's been a little while since my last visit here but I had to leave a review because I still haven't stopped thinking about how good it was. I got the Chicka-Chicka Boom-Boom enchiladas. They aren't lying when they say it's spicy, but it's a good kind of spicy. I absolutely loved what I got. I would literally die for that Jalapeño Cilantro Sauce. I put a little on my enchiladas and it made them taste even better. Sad to have moved hours away from a Chuy's but at least I've got an excuse to travel! 10/10. read more

Great service, but I'm giving Chuy's a second thought at this point... the Greeters and Wait staff were nice, but I never realized how limited their menu is... For example, Chuy's doesn't sale Tamales. Whaaaaaaat??? R u kidding me? Also, they dont offer a super/personal size of queso for the dry Fajitas they serve. After asking the nice Waiter a million questions about the menu and hearing about the very many up charges (for each thing), I checked out mentally, settled for the Fajitas and knew somehow I was not going to enjoy my meal. Don't think I'll give Chuy's another try (not this one at least). Wayyyyy too over complicated. The restaurant blasted cold air eventhough it was 41 degrees outside. The manager was nice enough to adjust the temperature!! Made for a more pleasant dining experience. Recommendation: Great job with presentation of Fajitas (siziling with all the fixins); however, they are difficult to eat dry. Please consider garlic butter, regular butter, or adding a sauce or small queso of your choice. Other than that, things were great! read more

This is by far my favorite location yet. The chips and salsa came the minute we sat down and our drink order was taken right away. The place just had good energy and we hit there at the perfect time right before the dinner rush. Our server Ryan was so friendly and happily answered my questions about a few dishes. He stayed on top of our drink refills, never had to ask for anything. The food was great too! I got the veggie enchiladas and my son got the chicken burrito, I had a bite and it was delicious. I am definitely ordering that on my next visit! We will be back here and will ask for Ryan if he is available! read more

As always, the food was amazing and the atmosphere is just casual and fun, but we had the BEST service we've ever had anywhere from a waiter named Reggie. He was so attentive and refilled everything before we asked. Exceptional, friendly service! read more

the previous time I went to Chuy's in San Marcos, the food was good but this week, Thursday December 28, it was disappointing. my enchilada plate had not been cooked long enough. It wasn't hot and the constituent parts were not the least melded. the chicken inside the enchilada was nice. My son and my husband reported their Elvis platters seems to have been sitting around a long time. we were a party of five and I didn't discuss with the other two. The restaurant was busy with delivery orders, perhaps to the neglect of in house customers? Everyone was nice, especially the hostess, we quizzed about our place the waiting line. The atmosphere is cute as usual. But in light of the poor restaurants in San Marcos, it is especially irritating that chuy's isn't dependable. read more

Chips, salsa and queso were good. Beef fajitas were ‍... Service was good at 1st then I guess she went on break

I live in a town with a Tex-Mex restaurant that mostly does a great job, but which is... less good with its nachos. So when I was in Central Texas and craving some nachos, my choice was Chuy's. The service was friendly and helpful, the chips were, as usual, fantastic, and the nachos were delicious--as was the Perfect Margarita. Indeed, one weakness of restaurant nachos is that they sometimes skimp on guacamole. Not so Chuy's. I left pleasantly full with just the nachos and so I am most definitely a fan. read more

We went in tonight to have dinner. Well, we sat at our table for 10 minutes and not one person came over to our table. So we left. Do better. Also, many people including the manager walked past our table. read more

I love chuys! I am from California and never had TexMex and let me tell you this place does not disappoint! For drinks we had bottomless Shirley temples and blue Powerade which are two drinks most sit downs don't have, they gave us chips and they were next level good they have this creamy jalapeño sause that is better than anything you have ever dipped a chip into. I ordered the Elvis memorial and while large enough to be bagged up for lunch the next day and perhaps dinner it was next level good, everything was so fresh! My partner got the Chikabom which was better than my plate, just a smaller portion, next time I'm ordering that. Our waitress was gracious and kind, I can't wait to return! read more

Favorite Mexican Martinis. Queso is darn good and always ask for their green sauce, yummy!!!! Love the Barton Springs the best! read more

Somewhere between A-ok(3) and I'm a fan (4). Great queso. Nice delicate thin chips for salsa/queso, not thick roided load-bearing nacho beasts. Hooray: 1. We were seated faster than expected in crowd 2. All waitstaff were very friendly 3. Attentive offers of refills for drinks and chips 4. I like their mojitos 5. Ladies, gents, and family restrooms, plus mine was sufficiently clean given the crowd that night, with no paper on the floor *anywhere*. Boo: 1. sometimes a noticeable while before waitstaff returned on a specific errand (it *was* busy) 2. Didn't ask my prefs on rice/beans when I placed my order; seems Mex rice/refried are the defaults 3. pretty loud Given my friend had a fat order of beef fajitas (she loved them and said this is her new favorite place) and I had two mojitos, I think the $50 tab (including chicken flautas, queso starter, sweet tea) leans towards impressive. read more

We arrived at 6:45 after making a prior reservation and we've seen 4 parties before us get sat, our party size was only 7 and there hasn't been any accommodations for our party, the host told us that they were waiting on a server to be prepared for us but it's been 30 minutes to get sat at a pre reserved table I wouldn't recommend coming if you haven't allotted time for a long wait. read more

One of the only decent places to get Tex Mex in San Marcos and surrounding areas. The price is good and the margaritas are top notch. I personally like the fajitas and shrimp tacos most of all. I would recommend ordering anything but the enchiladas. The tortillas used to make everything else look and taste homemade and are awesome but the corn tortillas used to make the enchiladas are bland and taste store bought. Atmosphere is great! Staff is friendly but I notice they are for the most part unkempt in their appearance with ripped or stained clothing and the 'fresh' just rolled out of bed look. It doesn't bother me that much as they are all pretty friendly but it is a bit off putting to have your food served to you by someone with a nasty, dirty shirt on. read more

My colleague and I came here for a late lunch. I love chuys. I love chips and salsa. I ordered a burrito and ask for no dairy. The server was very nice and gave me all non dairy options for my burrito and the sauces.

Always love Chuy's. The best Tex-Mex. The service is normally super good. It is a fun place to eat at.

service took FOREVER. The waitress was so sweet but everything took so long. good food though.

Not pleased today with Chuys. Made a online order for there famous homemade tortillas,rice,beans & guacamole. Wish the would have told us that they had corner store tortillas and black guacamole. VERY DISAPPOINTED!!! We will not come back until everything is back to normal. read more

This was our first time eating out (indoors) in 7 months since COVID started. We went on a Saturday night and did not have to wait long to be seated. We were seated in a booth, all of the booths had a plastic barrier between them and all of the servers/workers had on masks. The menu was limited, but they had everything we wanted and the food was delicious. The only thing they were out of that we wished they had was tex mex sauce. But, they made up for it by having plenty of creamy jalapeño sauce. We ordered a tres leches for dessert and it was delicious, as always. Overall, we felt safe eating here and the food was excellent. read more

Chuy's used to be my favorite Tex Mex place in Austin and in Houston. Since they reduced the choices of dishes a few years ago, they've really gone down hill fast. Im actually surprised they are still around. Back in the day, I can remember going there twice a week for their free nacho bar and great margaritas. We'd often times go for dinner after hitting up the bar for a couple of drinks, chips and nacho cheese. The last time I went at the San Marcos location, I literally threw up when I got home. Food and service was terrible and the seemingly alcohol free frozen margaritas were barely frozen. We had to send them back. The mole sauce on the enchiladas tasted gross. I left most of my food on my plate. Sad to see such a once great restaurant go down so low. There are taco trucks that are better than this place and much cheaper!! Oh. Plus the last three times we've been there the waitstaff was incompetent and rude! read more

Worst service I have ever had at any restaurant. The waitstaff's attention to customer service is a direct reflection of their manager. Laura you and your staff need to be better. read more

Went there on a Tuesday night. Sat at our table for 15 minutes without even a 'be right with you in a minute'. Served customers who came in after we were seated. Didn't even get our drink order. Service needs to be better. read more

Been going to Chuy's for 20+ years, at multiple locations (in multiple states), including this one. It's consistently the best Tex-Mex out there. Bar none. read more

Omg! I really love the queso! It's my favorite thing at Chuys! Also a good try is to get the appetizer plate! It's the best thing I ever tried at Chuys! The only thing I dislike is the price for the queso cause for a pint size queso you have to pay around 15 dollars when you can get in another places the same size queso for only 8 dlls! read more

Just stopped by this blessed establishment, and I would just love to say that after this experience I need to be called Moses because my butt cheeks are going to be split like the red sea for the rest of the night. Next, Sarah (waitress) claimed to be a born-again christian that attended sermon every Sunday but was recommending this boom boom sauce? Enough said about that. After this visit, I have to say the tex-mex chains need to step it up! God forbid I spend another forsaken dime at these restaurants! Next up, Chipotle, I have heard good things. read more

We haven't really come to Chuy's much after the whole Covid mess. Stopped by tonight and nothing was the same. Was excited to see the Baja fried shrimp tacos back on the menu only to order and be really let down. They were terrible, and I sent it back. NOTHING like the old tacos I loved. Idk what exactly changed. Ordered the chimichanga as replacement and they no longer use the good shredded chicken I remember. Hardly any chicken inside at all and it looked more like chopped chicken breast. Charging for some stuffing and way too much tortilla. This was supposed to be an Austin "staple" and it's complete garbage. I won't ever spend my $$ here again. read more

Or Excerpt From A Cheapskate's Guide To Happy Hour I'm a throwback from when bars used to have lavish cheap to free buffets for happy hour. Chuy's still does, although its just chips with all the trimmings. Don't get like me and always make a meal of it or they will notice. No worries, they are nice enough to look mildly disappointed. Just stop by for a meal every once in a while. They are worth it and haven't been in business this long for nothing. Oh, and the cheapest drink is a Lonestar Beer. Just don't ask for "lite" or they just laugh and wait for you to order regular. read more

We didn't have to wait long for a table on a Friday night thanks to online waitlist. They have a limited menu perhaps because of Covid. The food was good and the margaritas too. The only thing I dislike was the wait staff was not wearing masks like other establishments I have been. San Marcos is a college town and I think more that ever we all should be taking extra precautions. read more

I don't even know how this place is in business. Servers hands were filthy, had a hair is my so called steak fajitas. Isn't it required to wear hair coverings ie.. hat or something in a kitchen? Manager tried to bribe me to pay and give me a come back free card! No way I gave it back for tonight. Down right gross and the one star is only because I had to give it a star. read more

This 5 stars is for the Stuffed Sopapilla! This is an off-the-menu item that is basically a burrito but instead of a tortilla they use a sopapilla. It comes with meat of your choice, cheese, and beans (which I get on the side) and also comes with a side of rice and can be covered in a sauce (I prefer queso). It's amazing. I found out about it about two years ago and have never ordered anything else since then. The creamy jalapeño dip is also very good. read more

This y is a the OG. Their seasonal margaritas always call my name and never disappoint. Nachos were good. Gauc was good. Love the atmosphere in this original Chuys!

But planning ahead with the app, allows you to walk right past the folks waiting, to your table. read more
