This was my first trip to a Chili's.  It wasn't my first choice, but it was Saturday night and the line was out the door at TGIF, so we searched until we found a place that wasn't as busy...Chili's was it, and now I know why...

There were two people in my party. We ordered off of their special...an appetizer, two mixed drinks, two entrees, and a dessert for $40, but with upcharges, our bill came to about $60...with a tip, we blew about $70 for two people and had a shite meal.

First, our appetizer was fried cheese.  These were typical cheese sticks that you could find at any fast food restaurant...minimal flavor, maximum breading.

I ordered a raspberry margarita on the rocks. I'm not sure if the bartender knew what that meant, or if their mix is just that horrific. I actually choked every time I took a drink of my margarita. It was pure syrup mixer and tasted awful. I could taste the tequila, but just barely...then, every time I thought I'd re-taste it to see if perhaps I wouldn't choke again, I choked. Grossest margarita- ever. 

Our entrees came up pretty quickly. Despite that, they were cold!!!  Well, my broccoli was warm, but my potatoes and my steak-- cold! The steak was so thin and had no juicy goodness to it that one wants in a steak. The potatoes were scooped out of a steamer bin with a round scoop and plopped onto my plate just like that...so disappointing.  

My Texas toast looked burnt and unappealing, so I only tried it to prove that I was right-- yep, it tasted like shite!

I didn't even bother sharing the cheesecake. The rest of the food was so bad, that my friend ate it and said it was okay.  Also of note, my friend also ordered the Chipolte Garlic Butter Steak and mashed potatoes which were also cold.  They said their broccoli was cold, although mine was warm.

Chili's-- never again...

One star because we didn't have to wait in line (now I know why).
