Chili’s

This Chili’s, located on the Southeast corner at Metcalf and 119^th Street, has been the go-​to place for my girls and I over the past four years.
Overall, we’ve had many great experiences especially when balloon man comes on Saturday nights.
Unfortunately, our last visit was possibly one of our worst visits, there were many service delays– finally, I had to get up and ask for a server to come to the table, the problem was corrected, but then 20 minutes later still no service!!! The food, when it arrived, was fine but we are certainly hoping for a better experience next time!

This is the Chili’s I remember from my childhood– solid, classic, American food, lots of choices, good prices. They still have some of the best fries on the planet. Wish they still had the Frisco Chicken salad. They haven’t had it in probably at least a decade, but I still miss it! And margaritas are $ 3.50 all the time– love that. We had a particularly good server today, Matt. Pleasure to be in his section.

Talk about Help Needed. More specifically in the area of training the greeter to have the minimum social skills (including conversational English and eye contact) and the ability of handling that daunting task of writing down your name, the number in your party, estimating your waiting time and calling your name when it is time to be seated.
Ah the ebbs and flows of our local Chili’s. I’ll give it about 3 or 4 months before we take that trip again — it’s got to get better than this.

Went there for my son’s birthday, service was great the food was so so, my steak was not hot at all it was cooked on a flat top grill then a regular grill, I went there after a while and will not go there again if I want a steak. Its a good place for Taco and and pizza.
Manager never came to my table to see why and what was wrong with my meal.
I was at the 119^th and Metcalf location.

Went here on a Thursday evening with my family. Not a crowded evening and we didn’t have to wait for a table.
The restaurant was hot when we arrived and the manager told us he was taking care of it, and sure enough, before our food arrived it was much cooler. We shared chips and salsa for the appetizer, and for six people our waiter brought out 3 salsas! Yay! Our food came out quickly and correct and everyone was satisfied.
The only odd thing was that toward the end of our meal was our waiter said that his shift was ending and that he needed us to pay otherwise it would be overtime. So our meals unfinished we paid and started to finish our meals, but our waiter remained and cleaned off tables. Of course that meant no refills or anything. Just. Odd.

Pretty bad service. Never saw the waiter again after bringing our food. food was good but service was just plain bad.

Lunch with a friend on a weekday, we came solely because she got an email announcing Chili’s was running a special for their Old Tymer burger & fries. OK, Why not?
The presentation of the food has been bumped up a notch and the burger was good quality. Big thick patty, green leaf lettuce, tomato, and their new house made pickles on a brioche bun. Actually a bit impressed with it!
The fries were very very salted with coarse salt, but at least they were hot and crispy.
The downside to this meal? We arrived at 11:45 and waited 40 minutes from the time we sat down until our food arrived. Our section was about half full, and our server kept apologizing for the wait saying the kitchen was backed up. When our food finally did arrive we had to rush to get back to work on time. Not a stellar experience, but the food was better than last time I visited.

Food was pretty decent what made this place great was our server best service I’ve had in a while

It has been awhile since I have been at Chili’s. However I can say without a doubt that the food and service was wonderful. My servers worked in a pair of 2 and never failed to deliver great service on a busy Friday night. Molly and bonnie deserve a raise for the server experience we received it was above and beyond. me and my girlfriend will be back.

Chilis. If you have eaten at one Chilis, then pretty much you have eaten at all of them. I have been to Chilis in 6 states and at 2 airports. This particular Chilis at 119^th and Metcalf is right on par. They aren’t amazing, but they rarely suck.
You probably already know what to expect from a Chilis, so I will just tell some stories about my experiences.
My wife and I raised 5 kids. Because of the massively busy schedule, there was not time to cook, and the Chilis that used to stand at 91^st and Metcalf was our family dinner location. Sometimes we would eat there 2 or 3 times in a week. For many years, Chilis was the family dinner table. We were sad to see it close.
When it did close, we were pretty much past that phase, but we did start eating at the 119^th street location. Our first experience here was not good. It was overcrowded, and half our food arrived undercooked. We did come back, and never had that bad experience again, but to this day, my daughter remembers her kids corn dog being hot on the outside and frozen in the middle.
That 95^th St Chilis is where I hung out as far back as high school in the 80s. Lots of fond memories of that place where the decorations that remained the same until they got close to closing.
What do I eat there? I’m most likely. To get the 6oz sirloin with broccoli and loaded mashed potatoes.
Also, the skillet queso is a great starter :-)
Eat well.

5 stars because I’ve loved every Chili’s meal I’ve ever had, anywhere. It’s one of my favorite restaurants because the food and drinks are yummy and cheap, and the atmosphere is comfortable and casual. Our waitress was great! Page, I believe. Very attentive servers and wait staff. The ONLY gripe I have (not really enough to take away a star so I didn’t) but MY GOD! The «chili»… CHILI’S CHILI ! It’s horrible! I realized at lunch today i hadn’t ever tried and so I ordered it, assuming it would be amazing. Oh my God– the absolute WORST CHILI EVER. Worse than Hormel from a can? Yep. I took one bite and my heart sank. I’m not even certain there’s actual meat used in it. It’s the texture of wet dog food and, sadly, tastes a lot like what I would assume dog food does. Please, PLEASE don’t serve this crap! Just take it off the menu and replace it with fire roasted chilis or something (so as not to contradict the name, of course). Otherwise, fajitas were great as well as the rest of our meals.

Went there for the first time yesterday for lunch. Really impressed by cleanliness and large portions of food. Husband and I shared a Queso and chips and had lunch special. Loaded potato soup and chili along with Turkey sandwich and South western BLT on toasted Pretzel roll was fantastic
Manager was extremely nice and accommodating.
Will definitely be back.

Wow! Some of the best service I have ever received at a restaurant. The server Josh and the Manager Pete are first class.

A group of us, four to be exact, ate at the chili’s in shawnee and the food and service was a 1 star — SO the next NIGHT, we decided to go to another chili’s on 119^th and old metcalf, ordered the same meals, same drinks and everything was excellent. My wife and I had the 2 for 20, chips/​salsa, with the 6 oz steaks, mashed potatoes and salads. It was like night and day. Give em a try, you will be glad you did

Chilis is a great place to eat for bang for your buck.

It’s your average chain Chili’s. The food is good, prices are right. I’m a fan of their $ 2.99 classic margaritas. We usually go with an appetizer like queso or spinach dip. We haven’t been disappointed with the burgers /​sandwiches /​entrees we’ve ordered, but 99% of time I go with the Margarita Chicken. If you’re not stuffed after all that, I love the molten lava cake; it’s easily shareable for two, though I try not to think about the thousands of calories I’m eating.
The 2-​for-​$ 20 special is nice, which includes a two entrees and an appetizer off a special list. Sign up for their e-​list to get coupons — I get them about every week, usually for a free queso, appetizer, or dessert.

I don’t know what it is, but I always forget this restaurant is here. Enchalida soup is amazing and enough cannot be said for the Chocolate Molten Lava cake, it’s amazing.

Have been to this location multiple times and have never had any issues. In fact, staff usually seems really nice and drinks are ice cold. Good place to go for a quick bite or social time with the friends.

Tasty!

We had a great lunch at Chili’s today. Nate was our server and he rocked. I was surprised to see an offering that competes with Olive Garden. Chilis now offers an all you can soup and salad. This comes with bottomless chips and salsa as well. All for around 7 bucks. I had that and it was great.
Chilis has new menus and they removed one of Trista’s favorite sandwiches, the Cajun Chicken Sandwich. They were still willing and able to make it though when we asked. Great lunch, service and music. All of 5 stars for me!
