When your on the road a lot, and it's getting late the Chili's sign is a is a sight for soar eyes. I love there new 2.99 Pabst draft specials, it comes in a glass that looks like a can, it's the little things.
Despite waaaay too much salt they still are the raining champs of chips and salsa land.
Love Chilis, but yesterday went with the fam & a GF with her son... Was seated immediately and that was good... Ordered some chips & Guac & I dont know if they changed the Guac but it was filled with Corn & wasnt good..So it ruined the day...
Our waitress was clearly young, which isnt a problem... Unless you arent parent minded & EVERY TIME you place somthing down on the table (whether it be sizziling or not), the spot to put it wouldnt be in front of the 18th month old who is reaching for everything... That really set me off... She put a plate down which she commented was very hot.. But never once hesitated to not put it in front of him... She would put drinks there, Im pretty on top of things but I couldnt stop her in time EVERY time she did it..
Im a bad orderer in that I usually get the same thing - If I like somthing, I go with it... Well I ordered the Honey somthing Chicken Crispers.. they were SOOO HOT (I have had them before), but this time they were sooo hot (SPICY) that they ruined my taste buds for anything - I was unable to continue and I LOVE Hot.. I dont know what it is... But it jsut wasnt the best experience...
I do Love Chilis so we will return, Ill just order different next time... and make sure to mention not to put things in front of a child!
HORRIBLE!! Â I've been to many Chili's and have never had so many problems as I have at this Chili's in Leominster. Â They have made mistakes EVERY time I've been there. Â My husband and I have tried this place a dozen times since they opened about 3 years ago... They have screwed up our food so much at times that we have gotten free dinner's for two, usually everything comp'd...Once for us AND our two kids... Â How about just cook the meal correctly. Â Not fancy stuff, shouldn't be that difficult!!! Â Management and waitstaff are fine, but who the hell do they have in the kitchen. Â They would be a ton better if they'd just hire a competent cooking staff!!!!
Review Source:This Chili's location in Leominster is a good one. It's conveniently located, relatively new and nice inside, has plenty of tables, a big bar area, and good prices/portions. Usually I just choose the first-come-first-server bar area seating, which also comes with free chips and salsa that are very good. The food tastes just as good as any other Chili's, there's nothing overly special about this location's. The wait times are usually reasonable. They have good happy hour deals as well. Even the $2.99 margaritas are decent. I have noticed that they have changed their portion sizes in the past year or so, decreasing the amount of food that comes in certain dishes (instead of 3 taco's, you get 2 with an option for a third for a buck more, etc). Chicken Club Taco's are always good here.
Review Source:Hooray to the Leominster area for finally getting a few decent chain restaurants.
I love the unlimited salsa and chips for $3 (the salsa has NO CHUNKS which is awesome, but can get runny and watery depending on the day), but that's pretty much the only reason why I go to Chilis. The rest of their food is eh for the most part. I do like their chicken tenders, depending on how I feel that day. They're really filling, they have this stuffing wrapped around the chicken itself.
One other plus to Chilis is that they serve the most amazing corn on the cob.
In general, I'd really have to be craving chips & salsa to choose Chilis over Olive Garden in the same plaza.
Conveniently located in Leominster's Orchard Hill Park plaza, Chili's is decently-sized, clean, and has ample parking.
The food is on par with other Chili's locations. Â Highlights include their signature fajitas, baby back ribs, and burgers. Â Tip: Â Try their Country-Fried Steak (available at most locations) - it's very good and a difficult dish to find in this part of the country.
As with most chain restaurants, service is hit or miss. Â Generally, service has been acceptable, with the occasional "slow" server who disappears before taking orders or when drinks need refilling. Â However, I can't say we've had any serious service complaints here.
