" I had the Pick any 2 Fajitas meal: grilled chicken, steak. flour tortillas, Mexican rice, black beans, grilled peppers & onions, sour cream, pico de gallo and shredded cheese. The food was DELICIOUS. My only suggestion is that there should be more than a tablespoon each of pico de gallo & sour cream. The very small amount provided is not sufficient for the amount of chicken, steak, & tortillas provided. This is my second time ordering from Chili's Grill & Bar & there will be more orders in the future. "
"Chicken was juicy and grilled perfectly with light seasoning. The steak was of choice quality, tender and well done. I liked the Mexican Rice and of course the black beans. There was steamed wrapped tortillas and also plenty of garnish. This meal was flavorful. The protein was the main event, it was plentiful on its' own platter. Well done."

"The steak was not cooked as rare per request. Was closer to medium rare than rare. Steak was so thin 1/4" that was dry and not worth price of $31.99. Not even $10. Have ordered in past with no problem but this is the lowest quality of meat I have had since fast food steak sandwich. Salad also did not have requested cucumbers. "

"The chicken was super chewy and unseasoned, it didn't really taste fresh at all. They advertise this giant sandwich and give you two pinky sized tenders, a single miniature slice of tomato, a teaspoon of mayo and one singular ring of onion. Definitely would not order from here again it was a waste of my money."

"Only items we would have again from Bucket Treat C is the chicken (regular), and the Peach Mango Pie. Both were incredible. The Side Jolly Spaghetti was pretty tasty too but $7 for a side of it is steep for the amount. We are highly disappointed that this was considered a family meal but the three sides were tiny! Adobo rice was bland, French fries tasted bland and were soft and were cold. Not worth the $75."

"Ordered The Manager's Favorite with meat sauce and mushrooms. It hit the spot perfectly! It came with fresh salad and dressing (or minestrone soup), Spumoni ice cream and a rather large roll of bread (toasty on the outside, so soft and melt in your mouth on the inside). Highly recommend it!"
"I was craving OSF since I'm pregnant. I've seen recently how many restaurants I've ordered at tend to treat DoorDash orders with lowest standards. But we also go to those places in person. Simple requests are ignored such as providing silverware or napkins. I called the restaurant to ask for a side of garlic butter with my bread. It just sounded amazing. The lady I talked to was so sweet. She said she'd make sure it got in the bag. I received everything with the upmost care. Containers were clean & organized. The food tasted great. I received full portions & a heaping container of garlic butter. Everything came perfectly!"

"The eggwich was as expected but the crispy hashbrowns were the star. Imagine hashbrowns crossed with potato sticks.  Crunchy is a rarity with DoorDash just because it's food being delivered so when something stands up to extended delivery times and still remains crunchy, it's worth mentioning. The latte cup was half filled. My friend poured into a measuring cup and she said it was only 6 ounces. Not sure if that is standard or a restaurant blip.  Always like to give the benefit of the doubt to the restaurant . Mistakes happen. The egg witch and the hashbrowns are definitely something we would order again."
