  We stopped into Chili's on our way to a New Year's Eve party. All of the local non-chain joints closed early or did not open at all for the day. While it is a chain you can usually get a decent meal.
  
  It was not too busy. We walked in and sat down right away at a table in the bar area. The service from then on was extremely slow. It took far too long for our waitress to come up to us at all, and there was far too much time between visits.
  
  I ordered a smokehouse burger medium. What came to the table was a bacon cheeseburger well done. I pointed this out to the waitress. She apologized and took it away. Within a few minutes she came back with the "correct" burger.
  
  This was the same burger, now with the correct toppings. At this point i gave up and ate.
  
  My biggest complaint is that i never received a drink refill. This is a huge pet peeve for me. My drink should never go dry for any amount of time.

  During college this place was always packed and for good reasons. It is right in front of Meridian Mall and near Meijer. What place can you go to for inexpensive lunch or dinner with just one person or a large group? It's got a large variety of things to choose from and lots in the drink department.
  
  It's not stellar but it's not horrible, that's why it gets 3 stars from me. I never had bad service here and was seated within 15-30 minutes at most. Now of course if you come during prime eating hours then yes, you will wait. It's in a college town near lots of shopping and has a wide variety of food to satisfy many different appetites.
  
  My fiance loves Chilis and he always got the chili here and loved it. The hamburgers were always yummy and the strawberry lemonade was my favorite. They have great appetizers and other dishes as well.

  Are U kidding? I am the frist to review friggin Chili's? I know ya'll have been there. Here is the lowdown: They score high on atmosphere, cold beer, the best, best chips & queso dip and mostly good appetizers. They falter with their main dishes. The whole southwest thing can just go too far. Chipotle Grouper Fingers..anyone? Black Bean and Corn Jumbo Dog with Mango Salsa? No takers? Well, I just go there to sit in the bar (duh) and drink the cold beer, good chips and watch their large TV's. If that is what you seek (and you would be wise to seek it) than this is your place.

  2.5- this place really is average
  
  Chilli's- you and I have had a love hate relationship.  How I loved your:
  
  - mombo combo (or triple play, whatever the heck you call it)
  - country fried steak (not the best, but certainly filling)
  - free meals after you gave us such bad service
  - countless meals with friends spent here
  - your mugs that I stole 6 of and used all throughout college
  - 1 lb of fajitas on Mondays for $15
  - proximity to the mall
  - restaurant before I moved to a city that actually had choices
  
  With the good came the bad-
  
  -crappy service because I was "just" a teenager
  -underwhelming quality of food at times
  -45 minute waits (you're chilli's, C'MON!)
  -sticky tables not properly wiped down
  -you were considered "fine dining" back in High school
  -running out of certain foods
  
  I have been to this Chilli's far more than I can count.  I haven't been back since 2000, and doubt I ever will.  But for the hometown people, this isn't the worst in the area, but it's certainly not the best.
