Chili's Grill & Bar

Never again... NEVER again... I used to LOVE this Chili's. They were SO nice there, so attentive, and went out of their WAY for you. Now? We were lucky to see the waitress 3 times in our entire visit. Someone ELSE brought out meals out, which were wrong. Let me go into details.



First we ask the Waitress, how much the Soda's are, because Chili's can't be bothered to put down prices for said soda's. She gives us this far away look and goes "...yeah, hold on..." and gets us the price.



Second, we ask how much the fried cheese is, an appetizer, which is NOT on the menu but SHOULD be, same annoyed look that we DARE ask for pricing. When we GET our fried cheese sticks, the dipping sauce is easily HALF what it SHOULD be.



Finally, after 28 minutes we get our burgers.. yep. .28 for burgers... OH by the way! They were NOT busy the evening we went. My burger was supposed to come with a Sweet and Smokey, Mango infused BBQ Sauce. It had NO flavor at all, and they revealed they make it early in the morning for the entire day. But the side of this sauce I was supposed to get with my burger NEVER came, when I asked for it, I got it, and it TOO was bland as anything.



The Chili's Signature sauce, supposed to come on the bottom? Never did, and when I got it? It tasted of nothing. Trust me friends I have an amazingly good sense of taste. The Two LARGE Onion rings that were supposed to be on this burger? was one half falling apart one, and the universes tiniest one.



Finally? The burgers. NO FRICKEN TASTE! It's like they added NO spice, NO seasoning and hell no SALT. I'm not the type of person, that needs to put salt on his salt so I can eat salt while I'm eating salt. But there was NO flavor! The only good thing was the Bacon. Cause you can't MESS UP BACON! That was it.



The food was horrible, the service was horrible. a year or two ago this place was amazing. It's not now, it's sad. I was really upset by this. I'm not one to go out of my way to complain. When I get good service and food? I make it known. I review WELL for those. I thank the waitress, I thank the chefs! I even thank the manager on duty when something is good. But Chili's? Yeah.... never again. This is depressing for me, as this was my anniversary dinner.

Good Selection of Entrees, Reasonable Priced and Family Friendly. Highly Recommended!

The food here is Chili's usual. But it's got a huge menu, and it's always dependably good. There's plenty of parking and seldom a wait for seating.

My family frequents Chili's in Holmdel and all of our experiences have been positive. The food is great and reasonably priced. They offer a great kids meal with many choices, including some healthier ones like grilled chicken and broccoli.
