    Bigger place and better than the previous location (just a few meters away from old location and i think double the size) , i liked everything, decorations, location, service, well trained and welcoming staff, taste , and music. Prices are fine , a bit high but it's justified regarding to quality of food and service.

    A legendary place that you shouldn't miss when you are in town. An OG outlet that has the top rated places to go and enjoy your food, company and atmosphere. Food is always good, staff are always smiley and the prices are relatively bit higher than the rest of it's peers. That day we had the famous Honey Chicken Chipotle along with the amazing Chicken and Cheese Quesadillas.

    It used to be better. Portions were huge, I guess the waiter should have told us this while ordering since most of the food was thrown away. The food was good, especially the tortilla we ordered at first (check photo) highly recommended. Seatings were not so comfortable

    It’s an American restaurant with a Mexican taste. The only branch in Lebanon located in Achrafieh, Beirut. The ambiance is nice It’s a great place to go out with friends also on a date. Prices are a bit high, We ordered chicken quesadillas ( could be better it needs more seasoning and spices) The fries were delicious with some tasty seasoning. The ham tacos wasn’t too good ( the meat was too thick and not supple enough) The buffalo chicken burger I give it 2/5 didn’t like it.

    This place is simply amazing. Everytime we visit it we get the same experience. The staff are so professional and the portions are big. I ordered the honey chipotle crispers and they were amazing. The nachos were so good too. Keep up the good work.

    The food was good but nothing out of the ordinary. The drinks were a little better, with some creative margaritas. It was very busy even though it was a Tuesday. Booking in advance looks like it is required.

    The renovation is nice. The place has some nice decorations especially the big sculptures hanging from the ceiling. The food was good and the portion is pretty big, which makes a good value for the money. I especially liked the drink in the picture which i highly recommend.

    Yes, Chili’s is an american based restaurant and it’s been in beirut since my parents were young. So perhaps I’ve been there couple of times but unfortunately every time I go there I feel that it’s been getting worse because the service and taste isn’t the same from every time I last visit Chili’s. So there’s this downfall they’re experiencing and aren’t doing anything about it. It is really overrated and overpriced where much more local diners are delivering an amazing taste with a cheaper price. So basically, Chili’s is just a name that got the reputation of the nominal diner in the past and people still go there believing that it’s still the same. I order simple chicken burger and still it’s cooked recklessly and even the ingredients mentioned in the menu are missing in the meal or some of them are found in the meal but not mentioned in the menu! Honestly, only Chili’s lebanese brach is deteriorating however that in USA is committed to the reputation they’ve earned.. I hope the management of the central branch does something about this matter to keep Chili’s the best restaurant since ever in all countries delivering the same taste and service and accuracy..

    This is an amazing place for family or friends’ gatherings, but the food is not like it used to be. The Fajita was especially disappointing, I guess the quality of the meat is substandard. The service on the other had is exceptionally excellent!

    This place never changes and that's a good thing. Cheers to better days. One of the oldest running American dinners in Lebanon. Service and food is lovely busy place in the heart of ashrafieh. Definitely recommend the baby back ribs and the crispers.

    (Translated by Google) I'm not used to putting bad marks on Google ... If I have come to put one it is that it was really despicable. On delivery, the fries arrived soft and warm, the burger bread ... Sweet and soft like a low-end fast food. Not to mention the poor quality of the meat. To flee ! (Original) Je n'ai pas l'habitude de mettre des mauvaises notes sur Google... Si j'en suis venu à en mettre une c'est que vraiment c'était ignoble. En livraison, les frites sont arrivées molles et tièdes, le pain a burger... Sucré et mou tel un fast-food de bas de gamme. Sans parler de la mauvaise qualité de la viande. A fuir !

  • 1/5 Moumen S. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) Unfortunately, with the third experience, which was failing from the first and the second time ... The Chili's branch in Lebanon is the worst in the Arab world, and it is also certain globally ... Most of the items we ordered are cut off, starting with chicken mushroom soup, molten cake, and Egg Rolls ... The most important thing is the cherry cook, it has cherries that we cut, the nachos are colder than the dough and surrounded by guacamole and sour cream have the ant. And they fed Shwait ... the rice was fine, but cold ... the pico de gallo surrounded it as a mint paper, which means a quarter of a teaspoon of sugar ... what we have to think is that this branch is a shame on Chilis after I tried Chili's in all the countries that I visited and in all the branches .. It is not worth a quarter of a star for sure, and the star who landed is Karmal, the receptionist who was friendly, even though I told her frankly ... (Original) للاسف مع ثالث تجربه و اللي كانت افشل من اول و ثاني مره...فرع شيليز لبنان هو اسوء الفروع عربيا و اجزم ايضا عالميا ... معظم الاصناف اللي طلبناها مقطوعه ابتداءا من شيكن ماشروم سوب، مولتن كيك، و ايغ رولز ... المهم الشيري كوك ما فيها كرز قطعناها ، الناتشوز ابرد من التلج و حاطين غواكامولي و ساور كريم قد النمله، الفرايز مقليين من يومين، المعروف انه شيليز بيقدم حصه اكل بتشبع الفيل...طبعا مقدمين المارغريتا تشكن ب عشره غرام دجاج و كمان محروقه و ناشفه وطعمتا شويط ... الرز لا باس بس بارد... البيكو دي غالو حاطينو كانه ورقه نعنع يعني ربع ملعقه سكر... ما علينا بعتقد انه هالفرع هو عار ع شيليز من بعد ما جربت شيليز بكل البلاد اللي زرتها و بكل الافرع... ما بيستاهل ربع نجمه اكيد و النجمه اللي حطيتا هو كرمال موظفه الاستقبال اللي كانت فريندلي رغم انه قلتلها بالصريح...وععععع وعععععع وعععع اقرف ما اكلت بهالسنه

    The fresh, crisp lettuce makes the Quesadillas Explosion salad 🥙a refreshing dish that keeps you coming to Chili’s! 🌶️ the mixture of cheese with the balsamic dressing add to its flavor. After the salad, the grilled chicken sandwich is a yummy burger that you’ll enjoy. If that’s not enough for one person, the big mouth burger bites are the solution as they are varied and can be shared 😋🍔🍔🍔🍔

    Nice place In achrafie Expensive prices as all the restaurants now specially because all the Lebanese expats visiting Lebanon Cheken and meat fajitas are delicious . but i don't know if it deserve that price

  • 5/5 Marita 7 months ago on Google • 69 reviews
    The place is very nice and cozy! I really recommend it for a date or groups gathering . The chicken quesadillas and the crispy chicken tacos are really amazing 👌🏻delicious taste and fresh food . I didn’t try the fajita because i find out that the slices are a little bit thicker than the original fajitas. The burger was average here i only recommend you to try mexican food . The crispy honey chipotle is amazing!

  • 2/5 Marc S. 2 years ago on Google
    Very unprofessional staff! We had to wait for about 10 minutes for us to receive the QR code for the menu. No staff was available near our table. The food tastes good but the price are very expensive! At the end one waitress was very friendly with us despite before we had different staff member who weren't that helpful or attentive.

  • 4/5 AE 2 years ago on Google
    I have always been a chili's fan and considered it my favorite place in Lebanon. The new location is fine but somewhat lacks the coziness of the old location. Something about the old wooden bar and the small couches felt homey. The food and service however are the same quality.

  • 5/5 Maroun R. 2 years ago on Google

  • 4/5 joseph f. 2 years ago on Google
    the new location is just on the other side of the street not far from the old . the place is well.designed with the same old spirit parking also available next to it the place is crowded as usual not so noisy despit all the people inside the staff welcome us and they made sure we get a good comfortable table although there was mistake related to the booking date we had a seat revised the menu and ordered a mix of their best dishes we ordered Monteray Chicken, mushroom burger , honey crisps , tacos , quesadillas . the mexican food was impecablen the monteray chicken was also good and the portion is indeed satisfying the mushroom burger was ok. all the dishes came with mountains of skin on fries the food was served in an acceptable time but not fast since the place was full. Chillis is the place for tacos quesadillas and fajitas **** to be repeated

  • 5/5 Marwan M. 2 years ago on Google
    Love the vibe, and the staff where very friendly, it just has the same quality and service as other chilis worldwide, would definitely come back. The chips was on another level, as well as the salsa, so good, the guacamole dip was missing a little bit of flavor but was okay, and the chipotle chicken was extremely sweet, maybe not my taste and the honey mustard was so sweet as well. If you are going to a cheap place, this is not your place to go to, but worth a try for sure.

  • 3/5 Chrystel H. 1 year ago on Google
    Went there on a fifa football night. The service was amazing - staff was smiley and fast although it was crowded. However, was very disappointed at the food. Portions were small. Presentation was very bad (exp: the fries were thrown on the tomatoes and sour cream of the quesedillas) the fries very super oily, we even got a piece of quesedilla completely empty - and the chicken tasted "old" and dry Nachos were the only good dish We had at the end their iconic chocolate cake which was also very good and much recommended

  • 4/5 Adib D. 4 years ago on Google
    This's the only branch in Lebanon for Chili's, and I think they are maintaining their international standards in there. Food is awesome as usual specially their boneless wings and Texas fries with their signature delicious burger. However waiting time is more than other branches and some staff need more training for time management. They need to know what tasks to postpone to after closing. The service is good and prices are considerably high.

  • 1/5 walid b. 1 year ago on Google
    Extremely low quality food at a super expensive price. One of my worst experiences in a long time! Service was good though

  • 4/5 Ehab M. 5 years ago on Google
    It’s an American diner with a Mexican twist that’s a bit fancier than your typical burger joint. Expect to pay a premium for your burger and wings. You will enjoy them though. My burger was juice and the beef patty was thick and tasty. The ambience is nice with TV’s all around showing sporting events, mostly football. It’s a great place to go out on a date. I dropped a star for the prices which seemed a bit higher than justified.

  • 3/5 Marc F. 6 years ago on Google
    It was around 9:30 we went and ordered for take away there famous salad (explosion salad). Happy to have paid 26000 (not expensive in my opinion cause it's good for two) once home we opened the box to discover that our salad was put on cheap alaminimum paper which is not very safe (what if a small piece tear off and we eat it by mistake?) for a diner like chillis you expect better packaging. The taste though is good

    A nice place in ashrafie. Service is good and food is great!! 😋 I visit mainly with my husband, we always take the bottomless chips (as you guessed, it comes with a free refill), and the presidente margharita (which is one of my favorites), in addition to something else on the menu (we loved the pork carnitas but they were discontinued unfortunately - plz bring them back!!). Still, the quesadillas are good, the other fajitas are great, nothing on the menu really disappointed us.
