From the moment we stepped in, we had problems. We walked up to the host stand, said that it was just two of us. She got the headcount of the group behind us too (also 2 people). She decided to sit the group behind us first and tell us to wait on another table. So we sat down, a group of 4 came in and she sat them after like 2 minutes of waiting. Meanwhile, we are still waiting for someplace for two. We didn’t say we needed a booth or a table or a high top so I don’t understand why we were first to arrive and sat last. We should’ve just walked out then and there, but we decided to stay. I ordered a margarita that came 20 minutes later and melted. I waited another 10 minutes to get our servers attention to explain that I don’t want a melted drink. She said she’d have the bartender remake it, but it came back emptier. I think they just poured out the liquid and added more slush. After that, I received my chicken bacon ranch quesadillas at the same time my boyfriend received his salad. The server came and asked if everything was okay (5-10 minutes later) so I just asked for my soup and his food. Which she got. And we discovered mushrooms, lettuce and onions under his fries, and it was just chicken crispers and fries supposed to be on the plate. So I definitely don’t recommend if your allergic or don’t want your food mixed with other peoples orders. Then they tried to say that our free chips (that we get every time we visit by using my phone number) was gonna increase our bill since the server put it in wrong. And she also charged more money to upgrade the salad even though my boyfriend just asked for a house salad. Chilis is my go-to place but I don’t plan to ever go here again. At least not to this locations

Came in with my bestie, greeted immediately, and sat quickly. Browsed the menu while we waited for our server which didn’t take long at all. Andrea, was a super sweet and on top of it kinda gal. We both got a 3 for Me deal, I got a steak, salad, and a coke, my friend got a Deluxe chicken sandwich, a soup, and a tea. Andrea made sure we had refills, upselled us on a deluxe sandwich instead of the regular also made sure we got dessert which was AMAZING, it was a lot bigger than what we thought it was going to be and it was only 6 dollars because of the meal deal. Had a great time! Thanks so much. We will definitely come back. ❤️

Ordered To Go.
Disappointed on how heavily all the food was salted. The chips and salsa was a fail- we ordered X2. We mostly got broken chips and crumbs. The first bag of chips had several undercooked pieces, while the second bag was mostly broken pieces /crumbs. Both bags were heavily salted to the point of being inedible.
The buns on the burger were soggy both top and bottom bun. The veggies were mush.
As for the atmosphere, there was a girl sitting behind the register, I’m assuming waiting to clock in as she didn’t offer to help me pick up my order. She just ignored me as I waited for someone to assist me.
Sigh ..I’m saddened because our order was not cheap. It was a huge waste of money. We will not be ordering from here again.
I hope Chili’s will try and get it together. Or at the very least, quality check your food.

My husband and I ate here on Valentine’s Day, and we sat in the bar area. Our waitress, Susie, was absolutely wonderful. She was pleasant, attentive, and made sure our every need was met. She made us feel genuinely welcome—almost as if she had known us for years. It’s clear she truly cares about her customers.
I would give her 5 stars without hesitation. She was kind, professional, and definitely deserves a raise.

I am writing to share a concerning experience my family and I had at your Corpus Christi this past weekend on February 14, 2026. We were there to celebrate Valentine’s Day & sat in the bar area.
Our server, Susie, provided service that was far below the standard we expected. Throughout our visit, she was inattentive and rude. The situation escalated when another waitress, noticing our long wait, kindly brought us a refill of chips and salsa. Well rather than appreciating the teamwork, Susie became visibly & audibly upset. She said, ” I guess I am not giving you enough attention when I asked what you needed so the other team member had to cater to you”. Mind you she just walked quickly by us without giving us a chance to even talk and went straight to another table. She also asked my boyfriend, ” So have y’all been drinking before you got here”. When we got the check I asked for military discount, & she questioned how many years my dad served to his face. I was like wow this is actually ridiculous. The rudeness on the day we went to celebrate which was supposed to be very special. I just hope this doesn’t happen again because it was the worst service EVER.

My family and I recently gave this Chilli’s location another try and I am so glad we did! The entire experience could not have been better. Our server, Kendall was AMAZING!!!! From the moment we were seated, she was most attentive to our every want and need. Our drinks were never empty and our orders were perfect! She was kind, personable, thorough, and quite humorous.
The General Manager, Paulo stopped by our table and asked us how everything is. We explained to him our past experience from the last time we were here a couple of months ago/ years ago and I am so glad that we came back. So many other servers, manager, and other workers could benefit from his knowledge! Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!

First time at location,
Kendall was our server, we can say her professionalism and waitress skills are by far one of the best we have encountered lately and by that we mean in a long time! As a restaurant reviewer on the side, we recommend her for server of the month. The food was great but the service was what really caught our attention. We hope the owner and manager see this and give her something to recognize her dedication, absolutely outstanding, notes of attention on drinks not letting them be empty, taking care of extra plates, checking in more than once and her attention to each table in her section was spot on. Thank you again Kendall for a great experience hope you get recognition. Food is food but service like that is what makes it a great experience. Thank you again.

so i went into the to-go entrance to order. Melissa was so amazing. From the get-go she was so nice and gentle-spoken. i think she mirrored my energy because the vibe was so gentle and soft. im writing a review today because the customer service she provided was extraordinary. i hope a manager sees this because melissa treated me with real warmth.

This is single handedly one of the best places to eat, and in the many times I’ve visited, I haven’t met a worker who failed to make me feel welcome. This chain restaurant truly feels like a stand alone establishment compared to the local competition. The only reason for a 4-star atmosphere rating is that this location sometimes feels a bit small, though the service is fast so wait times are hardly ever bad. Continue the great job here; you can tell the local community really loves it.

Me and the wife came here for dinner. The wait time was 20 minutes. The wife and I decided what we wanted to eat before we sat down. The waitress was nice and respectful. The wife and I got chips and salsa as our appetizer. The chips and salsa were delicious and tasted homemade! 5 stars! The wife ordered a Veggie Santa Fe Burger with loaded queso fries. The wife was OK with the burger. It had too much mint greens in it, and the burger came with black beans, burger was also a little hard. She still liked it. But wasn’t too wild about it. Her queso fries had the queso too much on one side. She had to mix it all herself. 3 stars on the fries and 2 stars on the burger. I ordered a 6oz classic sirloin steak. Came with the loaded mashed potatoes, and corn on the cob. I asked for my steak to be medium rare. The steak came out perfect! A little bit on the tough side, but still came out like a medium rare steak. Four stars. The mashed potatoes were delicious. Five stars. The corn on the cob could have been cooked a little longer and had too much pepper. Three stars. By the way, they charge 50¢ extra if you want any side sauces. Be wary of that, my server didn’t say it would cost me extra. I got barbecue sauce for my steak. Overall, my visit was good. But it wasn’t great or perfect. I would probably return, but order something else. All in all, three stars. Sorry, Chili’s of Corpus Christi!
