We almost always try Unilocal to find a local place, so when we got a hankering for burgers, we tried three Unilocal-top-rated places but all were closed!(And it was 6pm on a Monday evening! What’s up with that?) We happened to drive by this Chilis, and we were pretty hungry by then, so we stopped. The service was a bit slow at the start, but after that was quite good and I have no gripes at all about our server. But too bad he couldn’t also cook, because the burgers we got were quite mediocre. I used to really enjoy a Terlingua Pride, from wa-a-a-a-y back in the day, but since then the burgers have gotten worse and worse over the years. After this experience, I may finally just write off Chili’s for burgers, forever. Red Robin is way superior, and I think even Burger King would be better. Let’s just say, they either don’t know what they are doing, or are provided inadequate training and materials to work with. Again, this isn’t a one-time thing; I’ve seen them go downhill for years, and at just about any Chili’s, in any state. Most of their other entrees are often good, but stay away from their burgers.

I have had both good and some crappy times at this chilis. Recently the past 5 – 6 visits have all gone as normal as can be expected with good service. Overall I think its pretty cool they are amping up there tex mex menu and adding some pretty cool authentic mexican plates in. We tried the table side hand made guac with bacon and chips and it was a pretty cool experience. Our waitress brought everything out and literally made the guac in front of us which is something we’ve seen at local mexican restaurants with the guac and salsa. So it was cool to see her do it. I went with the bbq ribs and shrimp combo with their loaded mash(which I love) and the corn on the cob. Everything came out pretty quick and was hot. Pretty much once we where done with the guac and chips the food was ready for us. Are waitress was very nice and got all our stuff right away. I have had some pretty shitty luck with getting waiters and waitress on their first day so it was relieving to get someone with knowledge of the menu! Only thing I hate about this chilis is its a dead spot for your AT&T cell phone. They also do not have wifi available so if someone is dying you wont know till after lunch or dinner lol. Overall decent spot for dinner that gets a lot of business in homestead(usually a wait of 20 – 30 after 7pm)

Short staffed. Dirty bathrooms. Yuk! Me and my friends sat at a tall table by the bar. Was not cleaned. Moved to another table. Waited 20 min to get service or a ‘hello well be right with you. After we out in drink orders, took another 29 to receive. I had to flag down manager for plates napkins silver wear and water. really, how about a simple strategy. If manager wants to play bus boy, follow up and put these items out after the order of your waiter is running around overwhelmed. Drinks and food good. Poor attentiveness and GROss bathrooms

The service was fine. The margaritas were watered down. The food was greasy. We were making our rounds and this was one of the places my coworkers always go to.

Food was just okay. Baked potato soup tasted like they used nacho cheese in it, very gritty. Ranch dressing is blah, runny and not much flavor. I was going to try a Watermelon Margarita but they wanted $ 10 for it. Way too much money!

Horrible food with horrible service. I’m the kind of person that likes to give a location a chance, I’ll make my decision based on 3 to 4 different visits. Well this location messed it up on each one of those visits. Food would have to be returned several times due to them messing up the order and then when they finally got it right it was freaking cold. Waiters take forever to acknowledge you and bring you your menus and drinks. Stay away from the Chili’s in Homestead.

Ate at the bar at Homestead Chilis. Bartenders here can NEVER do a good job. Bar is always a disaster with dirty plates waiting to be taken to dishwasher. Beer is always good and food is too… if not… I would never go back. Manager and food runners go to bar to drop off food or tell bartender something but don’t pick up plates or help bartender in any way. Clean a glass… pour a beer… do something! And barkeep… you will never do a good job if instead of looking at your guests… you look down at the floor all the time! Pick up your heads! Oh… and try to move fast. it isn’t deadly! Cell service is the worst here. No wifi and they don’t care what you think about it either.

Very poor way of handling a day like Mother’s Day. Was told the wait was 45 minutes. Waited outside on the benches by the front door as the inside waiting area was full. Was told I will be texted when I am called. Checked in periodically after the first thirty minutes. After about 45 – 50 minutes, I was told my name had been called a text sent which was a lie. Never received a text to date. The employees didn’t even attempt to walk outside to see if we were outside. Management needs to more on top of the business practices especially on a day like today. Ended up at Pizza Hut where we got a hell of a lot better service. Great job Chili’s at providing a great Mother’s Day I would post without a star if it would let me.

Hit or miss. Uncharged on nachos and didn’t know it. Drinks without ice come out half full. No thanks!

Went for lunch on a Tuesday. No problem finding a parking right in front and finding a booth. Restaurant is clean and looks modern, server was very attentive and the best part and why I gave it 2 stars. I ordered the Classic Sirloin with grilled avocado which is part of their lighter choices menu at 410 calories. My son ordered a plain Craft burger with cheese and fries. Hubby ordered the fresh mex pairings with 3 sides. No appetizer and just 3 sodas. The food came out in a fair amounf of time but the food was just not very good. My son’s burger was the best of the 3 meals and it’s a burger. My food was just blah and after I finished I got a slight queez feeling and I think the combination of garlic and tomato was too much. Hubby said his food was flavorless and just not very good. I tasted the beans and rice and agreed. The rest tasted like bad tex mex and just no love in the food. Unfortanely we won’t be back anytime soon. We did have a gift card so that was a plus since the meal was essentially free but I would avoid this unless you want appetizers and drinks since it seemed they had a lot of buy 1 get 1 free. Otherwise very disappointing. Next time we’ll go to Longhorn which doesn’t disappoint or even Olive Garden or Ruby Tuesday but for the price which our ticket was $ 42 not worth it at all.

Food was great. I love the Texas cheese fries, margarita grilled chicken and my favorite dessert in the world«molten cake». Service was not so great… Too slow to get to us but food was fast.

This location is hit or miss. When i get takeout from here, the order has been wrong the food undercooked, but i have dined in a few times and gotten pretty good food and service. Hit or miss, so if you like to gamble, good luck, you may need it.

Showed up at 430 pm before the usual busy times. Was told 10 to 15 minute wait. Wow, really with 30 to 40% seating empty. The hostess said we’re waiting on servers to come in.

Sat at bar and was ignored for 15 minutes. I asked hostess for help and she obliged with quick courteous service. Female Bartender has lost her drive. and needs to be replaced or trained again.

After not visiting Chilis over a year I thought I just might be pleasantly surprised… NOT the case!!! Horrible food. Greasy potato skins, main course tasted like microwaved reheated food. I’m sure any mom & pop shoppe would have been so much better. Chain restaurants just might not be my preference.

I was here on Thursday after a local high hook football game and was pretty disappointed. The food was average for a chilis no major complaints there, but the service was horrible. We sat down in the bar area and waited almost 10 mins for our drink order to be placed, then it was probably another 10 mins or so for drinks(2 beers) to come out. Also I made a rookie mistake and didn’t ask for him to wait to bring out the second beer and since they were 2 for 1, the second one sat there getting hot. After drinks we ordered the new table side guacamole and it was lacking. The server put probably 7 ingredients in but when you tasted it you could only taste mashed up avocado. Once we finally got our food it was room temp at best. The chicken tenders tasted like they had been fried much early and were kind of tough. Will I be back … Maybe. Unfortunately it’s one of the few places open after 9 and the drinks are cheap.

I went a couple of days ago with my man. We decided to come here for some cheap 2−4−1 draft beer and watch the game. We started off with some draft beers and as we were through our second one we saw the bartender making awesome drinks. We were so intrigued, we had to get a drink each! My boyfriend ordered a golden margarita and I ordered a Mai tai(which I did not know it was 2−4−1 also…) and if it’s not, then… I don’t need any forward explanation. Everything came out to an extremely fair price. Definitely changed my boyfriend’s mind about chili’s … And I’m just glad this one is right in the neighborhood.
