Different sauces to put on and dip with. No break on the lack of healthy versions, but good salsa and chips to start. Fish tacos are a break from the usual chili gravy norm.

Visited this location on Cinco de Mayo and was lucky to find a space in the parking lot. This location is always busy, and with good reason. The food is good. The drinks are good. And the t-shirts are hilarious! Just go expecting to wait in the bar and enjoy a pre-meal cocktail. :-) The margaritas are quite good. Or... More

Had just driven down from Connecticut, and much Cajun eating in Louisiana had adversely affected the power to weight ratio of the car, which now sighed as it faced hills, but still I craved Tex Mex, the gorgeous melange that is a great fajita. Ate here , job done. Can now return home to the land of curries, i.e England.... More

Loved this restaurant. Good atmosphere. Really friendly and funny staff. Food was great! Especially the chips and salsa they serve as soon as you sit down. Stones throw from shopping or George Bush Intercontinental airport.

Amazing Tex Mex at very cheap prices. Only downside is it is usually quite crowded on weekend nights. Whole family loves it here and we can always count on a good meal at a great price with great service.

Dine here pretty often with my coworkers, we all like the food and they always manage separate checks very well. You need to get here early for weekday lunch, it fills up fast. Super chips and good sauces. My favorite item is Chicka-chicka-boom-boom. I am a beef quesdilla fantactic, but Chuys does not have the best beef. Shanelle our waitress... More

Great Mexican food. A little tough to get a Parking spot. The restaurant is huge inside. We had a great time, don't think you can get wrong with anything in here.

For a long time, this was my favorite Tex-Mex place in Houston, mostly because of the 911 enchiladas, rellenos, and margaritas. It has been supplanted by Lupe Tortilla in the last five years because 1) Lupe has a sandbox playground for the kids and 2) Lupe Tortilla's beef fajitas rock. We still visit Chuy's when we are in the area,... More

I love tasting real Mexican food, but this is not one of them. It is a good attempt though. I have been here 3 times, always at the request of a friend. I do not think I would be the one to suggest it. In fact I never have. I do enjoy their creamy jalapeno sauce. It is pretty tasty... More

Chuy's is my all time favorite place to eat. I could eat there every day and not bore of it (when I was working in Houston got close to every day!) Off the menu suggestion - beef burrito with boom boom sauce, but be aware it is spicy. And of course have to have the creamy jalapeno to start (not... More
