Chili’s

I love coming here! Service never disappoints, which is great because it’s a huge part of the experience when dining out. Hostesses and servers are always nice, friendly, and super chill. Sometimes the manager will go around making sure customers are enjoying their meals. Food is pretty good too, can’t say it’s top notch but quality, flavor, and price is definitely reasonable for a chain restaurant.

I came here with my in laws and some family from out of town on a Tuesday afternoon for lunch. The wait staff was pretty cool! Everyone has personality here, I love that. It doesn’t feel so «corporate» when the staff is chill. The food was pretty good, if you love spicy, try their chipotle ribs! Appetizers were delicious and hot. Our food came out about 10 minutes later! Not bad for a table of 7! Since this was my first time, I’d like to say I’ll be back!

Seriously guys, I love Chili’s. Great appetizers, chips and salsa to go, cool lamps. Excellent.

I don’t know why people go here expecting 5 star food. It’s good food but not freaking Ruth Chris. Anyway, this location’s service is slower than average but it’s still good. Great for groups especially! The food is good. I haven’t had a problem with my orders at this location, but I will say sometimes the meat is dry. Also, I don’t like the fajitas here.

Today my me and my wife ordered from the 2 for $ 20 menu, although I did also order a house salad since that wasn’t an option on the 2 for 20. We chose the guacamole, salsa, and chips. I forgot how good the guacamole, salsa, and chips are, seriously as far as a restaurant goes I don’t know if Chilie’s or Rubio’s has better guacamole!(I may have to do a tie breaker between chilie’s and Rubio’s guac.) My wife said the guacamole that I make is better, but I think she was just trying to be nice.
As far as our entrees goes, I ordered the chili mango tilapia and my wife ordered the sirloin.
The mango chili sauce has a stronger kick than I was expecting my tongue was actually burning, and I LIKED IT! Very well evenly seasoned. My wife’s sirloin looked very much as excepted. She said it was really good. The only thing about the menu is you can’t change anything on each dish, but it does say that on the menu but the sides that they came with was a really good combination.
Over all it was a very good experience.
Side note: the Diet Coke was exceptionally good today for some reason.

Come back to the new chillies with high hopes. And once again disapointed. ordered a well done stake and it had a lot of pink. Not sure if they pumped my order out to get a to go order out of the way. But when I got home and saw the pink… Went straight to the trash.
When you order from here, be very specific

This is a favorite of ours. We love the South Western Egg rolls and their other appatizers.

Vary great service! Food was amazing and the service we got was even better. We had a waitress named Sarah that would make sure our drinks were full all the time with out any interruption and Took our order by memory and didn’t miss a thing. She never missed a beat. Are food was The perfect temperature and everything we asked for.

Wtf is the point of ordering takeout if I just have to wait for you to start cooking it once I get there? Poor form Chili’s.

I have, in the past, frequently made the mistake of putting Chili’s and Applebee’s in the same category: all-​around chain restaurants that serve the American spectrum from Tex-​Mex to steak and fries. And while their menus and their atmospheres bear out the comparison, there are some definite differences between them, which my wife and I discovered after receiving a gift card to Chili’s.
See, I hadn’t been to Chili’s in many years (perhaps never) before a few weeks ago. But in the interest of using our gift card before we forgot about it, we ate there twice within the course of a month.
Here’s the biggest difference: the food at Applebee’s is entirely what you’d expect. Some items are a disappointment, some are tasty, and all are slightly overpriced. The food at Chili’s, on the other hand, is consistently above par and reasonably priced. I was impressed both times we ate there.
On the first occasion, I got the bacon burger (because how can anyone ruin a bacon burger?). It came with an abundant helping of fries. It was miles ahead of fast food in every department: the bun was toasted, the bacon was thick, and the vegetables had a great presence. Even the pickles were a surprise: firm, garlic-​toned and crunchy, with a balance of cucumber and vinegar that I’ve only ever tasted in one other restaurant (and in the occasional homemade pickle). It was totally delicious. I should warn you, though, that like most burgers this one isn’t so great after a night in the fridge.
This most recent time around I got the honey chipotle chicken crispers. Frankly, I wasn’t expecting them to taste like real honey or chipotle peppers. I mean, when was the last time either of those flavors was fairly represented in a restaurant meal? I was shocked when the crispers tasted strongly of both. Apparently someone at Chili’s got the memo: «honey» and «chipotle» aren’t just buzzwords that sound good on a menu, they’re actual ingredients. The crispers were plentiful and yummy and paired well with ranch dressing.
Our only complaints had to do with the service. We ordered onion rings as an appetizer, and the waiter came back 10 minutes later to tell us they were out. I don’t know how you run out of onion rings at 6 PM. I understand that forecasting demand is difficult, but at the very least we should have been informed of the situation before we ordered.
Aside from that, there were three of us there and we all ordered items that qualified for the «2 for $ 20» deal. A skilled waiter would have billed the two most expensive items under the deal in order to give us the most favorable price on our check. Instead, our waiter billed the two cheapest items under the deal, leaving the third item at full price. I called her out on the mistake and, after some resistance, she fixed the check (saving us a little under $ 5). A small issue, but one that a more well-​trained waitstaff could have avoided.
Overall, I recommend coming here for the (excellent) food, and bringing a good attitude in case the service flounders, which it probably will.

Chili’s food is mediocre, at best. The kitchen, at the Orem location, has a problem with speed and timing, when the restaurant gets busy — we have been served cold food… and also had only half of our table served while we waited for the kitchen to complete the remainder of our order. But… what really sets this chain restaurant apart from other local dining establishments is their incredibly HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE! We had a party of 11, and they refused to try to accommodate a table of that size at 9:00 PM on a Tuesday evening. (There were plenty of open tables, but they insisted on splitting us.) The server was blunt about being annoyed by the fact that she got stuck with a table of «kids.» (The table seated 2 adults, and four 15 – 16 year-​olds.) I have been a server — in my experience, even teenagers are aware of how to tip… and, especially when they are accompanied by adults! It is completely inappropriate to vocalize that you are annoyed that you have to take care of your guests WHEN THAT IS YOUR JOB! The management was equally as rude when the issue was addressed. A gentleman approached our table, and… when he got defensive, he literally commented «if you don’t like my tone, you can just leave.» Well played, Manager-​sir — we did leave, and will not be returning to Chili’s in Orem. I recommend finding a different casual restaurant, in the area — DO NOT EAT AT CHILI’S! The staff is rude & does not appreciate your business!

We really enjoy Chili’s. This location seems to always be friendly and the food is always good. We love getting the different dips for chips with salsa. Tonight we tried the white spinach queso and it was good, nothing extremely special, though. Their skillet mashed potatoes are amazing. The sweet and smoky was delicious. The tex mex pairing is alright. Wouldn’t recommend the soft taco. The tostada and chicken quesadilla are pretty good. I switched the rice for the potatoes– which was a great choice. The black beans are pretty good too. We were planning on getting dessert but we were way to full. I wish they would bring back the cinnamon molten cake because I have never had a better dessert.

Terrible service. Stood waiting for several minutes while the hostesses chatted before they finally asked how many in our party. We were told the wait was 15 minutes. 30 minutes later, a party of the same size that came in after us got seated. Told the hostesses, waited 5 more minutes, and just gave up.

Chili’s is our go to place after softball! We love the service and the food. They have almost the greatest chips and salsa and guacamole. The rest of the food is good as well. If you are up for a fun atmosphere where you can get some good quick food, I would HIGHLY recommend this place.

We came here after my Mom’s graduation at BYU. After sitting and watching a line slowly progress I was ready to eat. The place we planned on going to was sold out, so we ended up at Chili’s.
I’ve been ordering the triple dipper here since the beginning of time. You get to pick 3 appetizers for around the price of any other entrée. The southwest egg rolls are fantastic, the boneless wings are okay, and the cheese curds I got were awful. You can pick from other things as well, but definitely get the egg rolls as one of your 3.
I had a watermelon lemonade with the meal that was okay as well. Skillet queso makes an excellent appetizer.
All in all, nothing that I will go back for anytime soon, but if you find yourself forced to go to Chili’s, maybe this will help you.

I had a great experience. Overall the food was good and filling. The waiter was wonderfully attentive, the desert was to die for. My only regret was paying an extra dollar for the beans and rice. Not great, but since it was only a dollar, 5 stars for the whole experience!

Great place for date night. This location is right in between two colleges making the 2 for $ 20 menu affordable. The food is average for a chain and the service is hit or miss. Love that it is open till late though!

Alright so there are some good things about Chili’s that I do have to note:
1) The 2 for $ 20 deal is a pretty good deal. You get to choose two different entrees AND you get one appetizer. My wife and I got the Chicken Fajitas and the 6 oz. steak with broccoli and mash potatoes. With an appetizer and two meals our total was $ 21.57. And we left completely full. So Chili’s is good bane for your buck.
The Chicken Fajitas were pretty good. Some of the onions were a little overcooked, but what can you do.
2) The bottomless chips and are pretty good. Fresh baked chips, yum. Seriously, this was my favorite part of our meal. These chips are freshly baked, thin, and crispy. I liked how salty they were as well.
Entrees:
The food is good, but nothing to write home about.
Service:
Our waitress was nice and attentive. I like lemons with my water and our lady made sure that we always had a bowl full on our table (+1 for her)

Same as any Appleby’s – awful. This is overpriced, soulless, corporate food at its best. It’s like some little Ashton Kutcher wannabes playing chef are sitting in a kitchen somewhere trying to figure out how to punk every potential patron that crosses their path. And punk us they do. After we leave, we wonder why we paid so much for TV dinners. I’ve been here more than 6 times (once on my own; the other times because my group insisted), and every time I wonder if food can get any less fresh.
Answer? It can – it’s called Appleby’s. But this place, to me, is a close second.

It’s a Chili’s. They’re typically 3-​star establishments and this one is no different. They serve up GIGANTIC portions of pre-​made, never fresh, food that’s loaded with salt and tastes great! I always feel bloated and a little sick after a meal here, but that might be because of the two giant beers and the bottomless chips and salsa, which make me almost too full before my meal even arrives.
They have a full bar, which is fantastic considering that it’s in Utah County.
