We had to make one last visit before this location moved! We love Chuys. The service is good and the food always comes out fast. You can't beat the Chuys aesthetic. I enjoyed the King's Memorial Combo, which comes loaded with enchiladas, a taco, and more! It's always a good time and you have to put the jalapeño ranch on everything.
I have such a soft spot for Chuy's, but the quality just isn't what it used to be. I miss the daily specials they used to have, as well as the nacho bar happy hour. I still enjoy coming here, but now the food is kinda average. The service is always great at this location though. I often crave the chips with creamy jalapeno dip. The atmosphere of the restaurant is really cool, and I love the eclectic decor. I pretty much always order the Guacamole Soft Tacos, and those fresh made tortillas are so yummy. The beans are also a favorite of mine. I have noticed the past few times I have visited my tacos come to the table already soggy on the bottom which isn't ideal. The tacos are still yummy though, so I won't complain too much. I still enjoy coming here, but I wish they would go back to the pre-Covid menu.
I've dined at this location a few times, and this was one of the best experiences! My friend and I were sat in the bar area, which we actually preferred. The main dining room has an awkward set up, which makes you feel like you're on display. Our waitress came over right after we sat down with chips, salads and jalapeño ranch. She took our orders and our food came out quick. I ordered the Shirley Goo, which is on the "secret" menu and it's rice, chicken and queso. Our waitress also continued to refill our chips without having to ask. Halfway into our meal, our waitress let us know the computers were down. Despite the issue and our waitress being clearly stressed, she still provided fast and great service.
I used to frequent Chuy's a lot back in my college days due to their "Big As Yo Face" Burritos being perfect for a college athlete's appetite and budget. Now as a real adult, I've decided to come back and try a few other menu items! First of all, I love that there are pictures of dogs all over the walls of the restaurant! Also, our server Marley was fantastic. She checked up on us just the right amount of time and also gave some great suggestions. Now for the food reviews. Complimentary chips, salsa and creamy green chile sauce were brought to our table. I could bathe in that creamy green chile sauce... yes it's really THAT good. My boyfriend got the Tex-Mex burrito bowl which he said was pretty average. The presentation of it was really pretty though. I got the King's Memorial Combo. It was definitely 2 meals worth for me (I love when I can take some to-go for lunch the next day). I would also say it was pretty average. The great thing about this place is that it's very cost-friendly for the amount of food you get. I'd come back for a happy hour :)
Our server, courtney, made the dining experience excellent the other night. She was very kind and personable and even split our entree into two for us. We ordered the queso, guac, and veggie enchiladas with boom boom sauce. We come here just for the boom boom sauce because it is delicious. The only thing i wish is that they had cut up the veggies in the enchiladas a lot smaller, not sure if you can request this?
Chuy's is a chain that has grown on me! My brother-in-law likes coming here so we have eaten a few times with them when we are in the mood for Tex Mex food. Their food is surprisingly good for being a chain! I usually opt for a platter because it comes with a lot of food and I like having leftovers take home. The complimentary chips and salsa also hits the spot especially with the creamy cilantro dipping sauce. I haven't tried a lot of the drinks but I can tell you my BIL loves the frozen strawberry margarita. It can get busy here but service has been great on the times we have visited. Vibe is casual and fun too. We will be back!
Chuy's is so underrated! I'm a longtime customer of their food going back to when they first opened. I've eaten their close to 50 times since then and I'm just now getting around to leaving a review and I don't know why I waited so long. I love their chips! Super crispy and light. They bring out their tomato salsa and creamy jalepeno which is spicy but I love it! We always get their queso dip too which is absolutely delicious. I typically get the steak burrito or the chicken burrito which have the best flavor of any Tex Mex restaurant I've eaten at. Their salads are really good too. Also their rice and refried beans are the best I've ever had. Big portions too. I always leave full and feel like I've eaten too much but typically leave with a bag of leftovers which I eat later in the week so it's a good value for the money. I want to mention that all of their food is served on extremely hot plates which is great because the food is always served warm and fresh unlike so many other Mexican restaurants. Last but not least, we typically encounter a great experience as far as the wait staff goes. Most of the staff has been there for years so they know how to be efficient and handle your needs quickly as the meal goes on. So if you're looking for some great tasting Tex Mex food and you like a some spicy items, you really can't beat Chuy's! A+
Delicious food that came out fast and hot. Attentive service. Fun ambiance. I ordered the Mexi-Cobb salad. This makes top five salads for me. It was absolutely delicious and filled with some many good toppings. It was very filling. I also thought the creamy jalapeno ranch was the perfect dressing. Creamy and just the right amount of spicy. This is just an all-around great Tex-mex option in the area.
Not my first time here and have to say I order the panchos every time. Basically bigger nacho with cheese,beans, chicken and pico on top. Never fails, it's super filling and great to share. This time around we wanted a little something so we got the queso, now not that it was bad but it's definitely not worth almost $10. It's a more on the liquid side than thick kind of queso. Just don't see why it would be that much for what you're getting. I could've basically gotten another meal instead of that. So for sure won't be ordering that in the future. Seems like the times I've gone it's been pretty quick seating. It's busy but not to the point where they have you waiting 10-15 mins. So for the most part pretty quiet. I'm sure I'll be visiting soon
We were in Orlando visiting close family friends when we decided to step out for lunch! Anita who originally is from Texas suggested we should try out Chuy's and it's Tex-American cuisine! Coincidentally my son had also mentioned this place as it has a location in South Florida too! On arriving we were seated immediately and our server Kellee was very helpful and made us feel at ease right away. The restaurant was clean, bright and warm. The wifey ordered the cheese enchilada and steak taco combo and I ordered the combination chicken enchilada made with two different sauces. Both our meals were excellent and we really enjoyed our lunch! The complementary nachos were also a very nice touch. Fellow yelpers I would highly recommend you trying out this place if in the area and we will definitely try out the one closer to home once we get back!
Not the biggest fan of this place... it feels extremely fast foody. The chips and salsa they bring to the table are nice, and the queso was pretty good. My empanadas were ok. The watermelon drink I had was so syrupy I had to return it, but the service was good and he didn't charge me for it (I had one sip.)
Wonderful and amazing. After waiting an hour at another restaurant on a Tuesday night we called chuys! They said come on we have a table ready for your now. Arrived and table was ready for our party of 10 with chips and salsa ready! Chris was our waiter and we was attentive and catered to each of us. The food was fast and delicious. Thank you Chuys. You saved the day for a birthday celebration and we will definitely be back.
We made it to the winter park Chuy's finally. We have been to just about all the other in Orlando, so why not make it to the Winter Park one. We walked in last Saturday about noon. It wasn't packed at all, and we were able to grab a couple spots at the bar. it had all the usual things of a Chuy's, brightly colored walls, random dog photos, flying fish on the ceiling, and Lucha Libre paintings. It always feels homey. we grabbed some chips and dips and guacamole right off the bat. Everything was great, from the salsa to the guac. I got a New Mexican martini to sip along with our chips. The infused with green-chili drink was nice, not too spicy as with most green chili items. The jalapeño stuffed olives put it over the top with heat. It didn't need up but it added some flair to the drink. We just stayed for the chips and a couple drinks(and took enchiladas to go), but its a great spot. I would stop in again if in the neighborhood. read more

We stopped here after being at universal and it was so good! The lady waitress helped us so much my mom wanted to order a chile relleno but there was no more left and then the waitress went back and was able to get a chile relleno made! And then my daughter really wanted none spicy cheese sauce for her enchiladas and she got her a little bowl to try it before she put it on her enchiladas and she loved it and ordered a plate ! Definitely amazing service ! And will come again when we travel to Orlando read more

Hi Carl, we appreciate your review! We can't wait to have you back…
Such a great experience. The service was friendly and efficient, once we were seated. A reminder that most places are still dealing with lack of workers. But the chips were freshly homemade, thin and crispy with just the right amount of salt. Salsa was good, not great. But that didn't stop us from enjoying it. The fajitas were some of the best we've ever had--and this is a regular favorite of ours. The chicken was juicy and came sizzling with onions, green and red bell peppers. We loved that they included shredded cheese in the toppings. We sat on the patio that looks like it would be a fun place for an evening meal. Colorful market lights are hung from the ceiling. Plenty of parking in the back. I had a regular margarita and at $8.50 I felt it was small. But it was delicious! read more

Every time we've come here, we are immediately seated and the servers are always so attentive. We stopped by for a quick lunch and got the Panchos with grilled chicken. If you split them between two people, it's enough to fill you both up because it's a gigantic portion. They're always perfectly cheesy, perfectly grilled, and nicely seasoned. Absolutely love the Panchos! We also always inhale the chips and dips they bring out prior to your appetizers/entrees. The chips were warm and had just the right amount of salt, which is always appreciated. Speaking of dips, however, we ordered the queso for the first time and we were really disappointed. Although I forgot to take a picture of it, the portion size was laughable. And for $10? An absolute ripoff. Regardless of the flavor or quality of the cheese, it was such a small portion of queso that it was completely not worth it. Even though I knew it was $10 because the menu shows it, I was expecting a much bigger portion. So, if you want a bang for your buck, avoid the queso. read more

The food was good! We were seated and served almost immediately. The server was fast and polite. A quick trip with the whole family and would come back again if we were around. Taco salad- chopped into small pieces and had a nice vinaigrette dressing on it Chicken flautas- moist chicken inside the flautas made for a crunchy outside and a soft inside. Great bite! I wish they gave a little of that sauce on the side so I could pour it on them myself. My sauce seemed like it was sitting in there a while. Free chips and salsa!! Always a win! And the kids burrito was a nice size for my 5 year old. I know it's a chain but I wished they had a more authentic vibe inside. The walls were decorated but it would be nice if they played some Mexican music to fulfill the ambience. read more
Popped into Chuy's for a quick drink and grabbed some chips and queso yesterday. We sat at the bar and had a great experience. The service was awesome and I love their bar. I am a dog person so I love seeing all the framed dog pictures everywhere. Next time I am going to bring a picture of my pup and get that free app! read more

Everything was just okay, I feel like I expected more because I typically hear good things about this restaurant. I love queso but I didn't like theirs, it was giving me the same taste as the cheap nachos with the thick yellow cheese. Their chips and salsa were good, their tacos and burritos were pretty good. I probably won't return. read more

This was my first time at chuy's and I must say I'm very shocked ! The food is amazing ! I love the chips and salsa you get when you first sit down ! I just recently went to a Mexican restaurant and wasn't a fan of the salsa... this place is my new go to ! Because the shrimp tacos I had WAS DELIGHTFUL! And I don't like cabbage on my tacos but for some reason everything on that shrimp taco went great together ! The steak tacos were good as well BUT I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THE SHRIMP ! read more

Came to Chuys for lunch on Thursday, we opted to seat outside and requested the table be cleaned as they were visibly dirty, the young lady hosting rudely wiped off part of the table and acted as if we were wrong in our request. Thankfully that was the worst part of our experience. The highlight was the superior service recieved from Jill! She was amazing. We thoroughly enjoyed the chips and salsa and jalapeño dip. I ordered the chuychanga, and others got Nachos and enchiladas. Don't forget to try the boom boom sauce which is amazing with a lil kick. The margaritas were fantastic. Thoroughly recommend it, and we will back! Everything came out hot and food was fresh and flavorful. read more

Hi Sandy, thank you so much for reaching out and sharing the positive…
Had a great time time eating here. Definitely one of the best Mexican Restaurants around. The chips and salsa were good. The salsa does have a kick to it so make sure you have a drink when you try it. The steak is tender and a good portion is given. The flour tortillas taste homemade and are actually the best tortillas I have ever head in any Mexican Restaurant. They are super soft and tasty. The rice and refried beans were delicious as well. The fajita toppings are fresh and ample. The atmosphere is very chill and inviting. Love the 80s music playing in the background at this location. It is a great family restaurant. Service was great as well! Look forward to going back! Good parking at this location also. read more
This is a fun new restaurant in the Winter Park area. I had tried it in various states including the original in Austin, Tx. Food is really good. They make their own tortillas. I rank Mexican restaurants based on their Chile Rellenos, if they have it in the menu. Got to say, it was really good. I also customized the enchilada that came in the combo platter I ordered, instead of the typical red sauce, I switched to a tomatillo based. The dish overall was delicious. They offer happy hour but I didn't take advantage of it. I would love to go back and try other Tex-Mex dishes. read more
Ambiance: 7.5 out of 10; Service: 8 out of 10; Food: 8 out of 10; Price: $ out of $$$$; Covid Safety: Masks required, enforced. Pleasssssse get the jalapeno ranch dip. I don't even like ranch but it's soooooo good. The chips are fresh and super yummy. Tacos were delicious. The bartender is amazing and we thoroughly enjoyed our drinks. Safe space for people of color. read more

Hi Monica, we are so sorry to hear about this but thank you for…
Very good food!! The pico is delicious! It's been a long time since I had a sauce served with chips that had a bite to it. The bartender John was such a good bartender as well as a server!! He was all over the place with quite a few tables, extremely busy but very attentive. I had one problem and that as I'm watching him RUN all over the place I saw servers standing around, one was looking at her phone in a room off the bar. I don't know why he didn't ask for help he definitely needed but he did a good job anyway but I noticed a table outside that he had that had to get up a couple of times to ask him for something. I am all about customer service and it's always nice to have that camaraderie with your fellow teammates where they notice prebussing, refills, and the like, those little things that make all the difference. Like I said he did a wonderful job regardless. The beef tacos were delicious and the rice was awesome but I really didn't care for the beans. I love the bar area it's nice and quaint. read more

Why is it so hard to take care of the customer? Simple request: We are in freaking Florida! It's freezing in this place. So I asked to open up the patio as did the customers sitting next to me. But they wouldn't. I don't care how good the food is I'm not coming back. And just now a table opened up on the patio. I asked if I could move & they said NO!! Unbelievable I did receive a reply from the manager who basically told me to go tell someone else. I guess he can't fix it. Unbelievable read more

Came here for a birthday party. There was only five of us, because of coronavirus. It was a Monday, so we did not need a reservation. We were seated at a round table, near the tortilla station. All staff were wearing masks and you have to wear a mask to get inside. Once seated, you can remove it. Our server was around to check on us, but I honestly had to call him over a couple times. It wasn't even a busy night. I had two happy hour drinks- the House Rita followed by The Original Texas Tini. I wish they would've given us separate chips and salsa so we didn't have to share with the entire group. For that reason, I did not indulge. The menu is limited during coronavirus. I opted for the healthiest entree - the fajitas. One of the other gals ordered the same. When our meals came out, we were definitely into them. It was awhile before I had to ask about the freshly made tortillas - where are they? Why were they not served with my dinner??? When we asked for our checks, he went around and asked what we had. I reminded him I had the mixed fajitas and two happy hour drinks. When my check came- he did not honor the happy hour price. So I flagged him and asked him to change it. Honestly, it's a simple mistake but come on. It's your job to get it right and it's a Monday. You have two tables. Very disappointed with the service. I can't imagine how terrible the service would be on a busy night. The food is mediocre at best. The drinks are the best thing. Parking is in the garage behind. Bathrooms are clean. read more
Great tex mex restaurant. They serve you so much food! It's enough to share with someone, depending on what entree you get, or good for some left overs. The steak tacos al carbon were super scrumptious. I loaded my tacos with the guac, sour cream, cheese, rice and beans that came on the plate. The burrito is a plate I recommend to share. There was a bit of heat in the burrito. I would call it like natural heat from the spices they use in the meat that was inside. Overall good experience. I loved the wacky decor they had. So many photos of dogs! read more
Not being able to make up my mind, I ordered the relleno and enchilada combo. I chose the shrimp and cheese relleno, which was filled with substantially sized whole shrimp not baby pop-corn shrimp or shrimp pieces and some cheese not a lot. The roasted Anaheim pepper was battered, fried and topped with deluxe tomatillo sauce and drizzled with sour cream. The batter was light, moist, and crunchy all at the same time - just perfect! The deluxe tomatillo sauce which mixes sour cream with in with the standard tomatillo sauce is delicious creamy, mild, and tangy. I chose the stacked pulled chicken enchilada, which usually comes deconstructed (unwrapped). I didn't realize this typically wasn't available in the combo so Chuy's nicely made an exception and made me a wrapped version in the combo. I went with the recommended tomatillo sauce. It was delicious. (Pro-tip) This location switch the Chuy's sauce listed on the entree with a different sauce, permitting you to customize dishes to your liking. The chips and salsa are good. The salsa is hotter than many places, definitely a medium not a mild. You can definitely taste the jalapeños and it leaves a slight tingle or burn on the lips and tongue. This location is very busy at lunch. As I first-timer, I was slower ordering than others, having to peruse the entire menu first. The waitress was definitely friendly but a bit impatient obviously wanting to turnover customers and tables. There is plenty of parking in the parking garage behind the restaurant or in the lot behind on the back right. read more

Is the chicken in the enchiladas shredded?
Usually you can get shredded or grilled.
Are the enchiladas good?
I personally think they're awesome! I always get the deluxe chicken with queso all over it! And if you like spicy, they currently have the enchiladas Ricas that's a special
