Chuy's

My friend picked out this Chuy's location for lunch one busy Sunday afternoon, and I had not fallen in love with the Raleigh location but was willing to try this one. So glad we did! We were greeted & seated immediately, and when one friend wanted a booth instead of a table the hostess checked and then made it possible. Our drinks came out quickly and another friend had never eaten here and asked about a gluten free menu which I hadn't even done and our waiter produced one! So of course I had to look at it after she was done, and now I know I can order the enchiladas because they are made with a corn shell which I did not know. We all enjoyed our meal, our waiter was very helpful and when asked questions he was happy to serve. We had a very nice time and I'd come back here for sure, especially since so many places are closed in the area on Sunday afternoon!

We’ve been told by about 4 people that this place isn’t great. But that was a couple years ago. My man and I read the reviews and wanted to try it. He got a burrito “the size of your head” and I got the Tribute to Elvis Presley. Neither of us were disappointed. I also got a Violet Rita and we ordered queso. LOVE them both! IF you go here, bring a FRAMED picture of your dog for a free appetizer! We didn’t know that, nor do we have a dog. If you get the appetizer, make sure it’s queso!

I love the food here! They make their tortillas in house and you can tell because they’re so good. I always get the tacos carbon with steak and chicken but I recently tried the Baja shrimp tacos and they were delicious too! (Pictured) The classic Chuy’s margarita on the rocks is my go-to but the swirl is also good. Get the creamy jalapeño sauce with your chips. Their salsa is fresh and has a good kick. Great value, big portions, quality food. My husband got the salad with chicken and it was huge!

I love Chuy’s. Don’t get to come here enough. I have never had a bad meal here. Last time I was here I had the flautas which were wonderful. The frozen margarita was not too sweet nor did it taste too strongly of tequilla. I dream of their jalapeño ranch. The salsa is fresh and spicy. If you have not been here check it out. Not only is their food fantastic, I’ve always had above par service.

Had takeout from here for the first time tonight. It was done exactly when they said it would be, perfectly packaged and handed over by a super pleasant hostess. When we got home the portions were super generous, hot, and delicious. Also decently spicy which was a nice surprise. We'll be going back on the regular. Thanks for dinner Chuy's!

The wait was about 50 min at 7:15. We were willing to wait for the good food and were not disappointed. We were served by the manager himself because they have been short-staffed because of the pandemic. Still the wait staff was attentive and cheerful. I would recommend getting a reservation if you can, because although it's a big place they have closed off parts of it because of the shortage of staff.
