For the first time ever my family had the privilege of visiting Chili’s and having dinner. Chili’s sent us a gift card so my family and I could enjoy what they have to offer. I wanted to write this review last month but unfortunately I don’t live anywhere that is near a Chili’s so for me I have to make a trip out of it. I am going to tell you right up front that is the only complaint you read in this entire post, that Chili’s really needs to put up more locations. Specifically on Saginaw St. in Lansing, MI!
Ok now on to the actual review. We found the place and parking was actually great for 5 PM on a Sunday!
Alyssa ordered first from the kids menu, us older peeps needed more time – She got the grilled chicken and fries which in her words was DEE-licious. I tasted it and so did Aiden. As a matter of fact he wanted more from her plate!
Greg ordered the Chicken Quesadilla Salad. In his words, the best salad he ever had and he wants to have it at home!
I ordered the Western Burger. I wanted a big burger but didn’t think it would be the size of my toddlers head! I am dead serious, this is THE BEST BURGER I HAVE EVER EATEN!!
Colton ordered another burger that I can’t remember the name of but it was BIG, and he couldn’t finish it, which is rare for a 13 year old! And let me take a minute here to say the FRIES are the BEST! That is mostly what Aiden munched on.

We ordered the endless chips and salsa which was supposed to get refilled but didn’t..maybe that is a good thing because our food literally came right after we finished the basket of chips.
So we ordered 2 pops, 2 waters, 1 appetizer, 1 kids meal, and 3 adult meals and the total? Only $38!! For a family of FIVE! We had the $50 gift card to pay but knew we couldn’t come back there because we live really far away so we made the waitresses day and gave the remaining $12 to her for a tip, because she was a great waitress and because there was no point in wasting the balance.
Serendipity Mommy and family DEFINITELY gives Chili’s 2 thumbs up!
