Chili’s Grill & Bar

Great local chain that I can always count in for good food. Great curbside for on the go as well.

I love this restaurant. I have probably been here over 100 times since moving to Palm Bay in 2011– the best wait staff, no wait times, food is on point every single time– atmosphere is always great and the restaurant is always clean. Can’t complain

Sorry not a fan of Melbourne Chili’s. The wait staff was incompetent and very slow. The food was not worth the wait it was mediocre at best. I felt a little sick after having baby back ribs. This was not the first time going there. And it was not better then either. The table next to us was filthy and had dishes of food from customers before us and it was not cleared until we were getting ready to leave which was about three and a half hours later. If they cant keep the dinning area clean I hate to see what the kitchen must looked like.

I’m not a huge chain restaurant fan but I did try Chili’s for the first time today and just wanted to say that the Prime Rib tacos were amazing even though they missed the queso fresco. I didn’t say anything to the waitress but then again I’m scared of returning my food after watching «Waiting». The server could have been a bit more upbeat and asked us for refills on drinks.

Chili’s is perfect for grabbing a beer after a long day at work. Food is great and everyone’s super nice. Ask for Mark Wheeler! :)

I had dinner at Chili’s with my daughter tonight. We waited for 30 minutes for our order. Fajitas and a burger. The only time the waiter checked on us was when he asked if we were ok was while he was wiping off an adjacent table. The food was ok. It was looking like we were going to have another long wait to pay our bill, the bartender took our bill for us. It wasn’t even that busy. I used to be a fan of Chili’s but not any more.

Chili’s is a common chain restaurant in America. I expected decent quality and that’s what I got. Upon arriving, we were seated and then served chips and salsa, endlessly. Our waitress was nice but she seemed distracted by other tables the entire time, not focused on the task at hand. The new addition, table side guacamole, where you get to create your own personalized guacamole, was a unique add on and made up for the lacking service. My food however, was complimented by the jazzy music and sports on television around me. The sweet potato fries were very good, but probably oilier than that of McDonalds. I don’t know if it was me but they were just addictive. The broccoli side and the black beans side were mediocre, nothing special. A plus to Chili’s that I don’t often see is that they offer to convert any dish into a meatless one, which is nice. The meatless mushroom and Swiss burger was one of the biggest burgers I’ve ever eaten so you will get the bang for your buck. Overall I had a nice experience but it wasn’t particularly memorable. This Chili’s is a place to go if you’re looking for a fast but quality dinner and are low on cash but don’t care about carbs.

I used to love this place. Things have gone way down! The French fries tasted baked and had strange flavor. The burger was greasy and not seasoned well. Service was the only good thing.

I have to admit sometime my service and food as not been up to Par BUT !!! when this happens I get the managers involved and they will take care of you. I can tell you I go there on a regular basis and yes they are not perfect but the managers care and that is whet makes the difference and if the GM is not there and you walk out not happy call General Manager and let him know. Make sure you talk to the GM not the manager on duty. He really cares and wants to make sure you are happy.

The best, most consistent food and service in the industry. Great prices, always friendly service. I eat here two or three times a week, and I’ve never been disappointed. Ask for Crystal or David in the bar area — they’re both awesome!

I’m not a huge chain restaurant fan, but when I travel I tend to seek out the reliable chains and Chili’s is one that I seek out wherever I go.
I was there around 3:30p to have a quick meal before my flight out of the Melbourne airport. I sat in the bar and was immediately taken care of by my server, Kathy. She brought my food out quickly and took care of my check ahead of time so I could run out as soon as I was done.
Everything about my quick meal was great and I would definitely go back again on my way to the airport next time I am in town.

Typical Chili’s chain restaurant. However when I walked in on a Saturday night at 6:00, there was no wait and I found a seat right at the end of the bar. They had 2 for 1 drafts which the bartender pointed out to me when I ordered a bottle beer. So I went along with draft beer, I ordered a new sampler blackened chicken sliders, cheese steak sliders and southwest egg rolls. $ 10.99 for the meal. It was very filling and quite good. I will make every effort to return to this restaurant. I was also told that they have happy hours ½ price appetizers during the week.

I am not such a big on the chain restaurants such as this one, however usually they get a one up for their exceptional service, coupons and large menus. Well this one has the large menu and the Chili’s Corporate Deals, but the service was very poor. I have been here enough to comment now and 2 out of 3 times I have gone here the service has been a two on a ten point scale. Having once been a server myself, I also take a lot of variables into account, but when you have someone who introduces themselves as your server’s helper, the staff really need to get it together and work as a team to make sure your customers have what they are needing in a timely manner. That being said the food is typical Chili’s, which usually is not bad. It is too bad the service does not match what I have grown to know as typical Chili’s Service. It would quicker at this location to order your food with their Smartphone App and get a table to eat it. ;)

I’ve avoided Chilis for several years now as the quality of their food has gone down and they removed the spinach and artichoke quesadillas that were perfect for vegetarians. I was excited to see they now have a vegetarian options menu. So I went with a couple of friends and ordered the lunch break with the house salad and cobb salad with black beans. For $ 7 I got about a third of a head of iceberg lettuce (which no restaurant should still be using), avocado dressing (not bad) and not quite 2 tablespoons of black beans. Yeah, I won’t be going back again. And I’ll be steering all my friends away from your restaurant. Iceberg lettuce? Really? Don’t they realize it has no nutritional value? There was almost nothing else in the cobb salad — a couple of tiny pieces of avocado and red peppers. And black beans are CHEAP. Why would they be so stingy with them. Very, very disappointing.
On the plus side, our waitress was okay, even though she got 2 of the bills wrong and didn’t show up for a while after we got our meals. She did manage to get our somewhat unusual meal orders correct.

I’ve been a server, hell I practically ran the shit hole Italian place I worked at a few yrs back. So I understand the nightmare of running 8 tables while answering phones for delivery/​take out, writing up all the tickets and ringing out dine in and take outs. I feel your pain. I also tip no less than 40%.
Unless I’m seated in an area where every unoccupied table (8 out of 11) is DESTROYED. So gross. Disturbing the manager walked thru the section 7 times and never once blinked. It stayed that way thru out the entire meal.
Took almost 20 min from when we sat to when the girl took our order. Fine on a busy night — it wasn’t. She had 1 table already eating, one who already ordered and us. Really? When we can see you standing around talking to your co-​workers? Not cool.
I had nothing to drink the entire meal… yeah — I kinda finished the ice tea I had gotten 45 min before. Go figure. She stopped by the table when we both had our mouths full and said «Oh everthing’s ok. Cool» and walked away as I reached for my empty glass. Finally flagged down some other server who got us refills.
That’s fine. You want to give shitty service cuz you know the food’s that good? It’s not. It’s Chili’s and it’s not all that good. I wasn’t expecting 5 star food & service. Just some basic decent food and average service. When you find yourself in an establishment who can’t muster either, you know what you do?
Never go back.
