I have been to three different Chuy's; two in Houston and one in Austin; and I have never has a really good meal at any of them. At best, it was passable Tex-Mex. My main complaint was the heaviness of their tortillas. There seemed to be more than a pinch of cement as an ingredient. The sauces were, at best, fair. I realize from experience that sometimes you have to try a place a few times to discover better entrees. But, there are way too many quality Mexican joints around with a proven track record for me to waste any more money on Chuy's. I gave 'em a fair chance, but they didn't come through. ADDENDUM! I wanted to add that I am completely baffled by and suspicious of the ratings system on this site. This restaurant had 86 reviews: 42 HR, 13 R, 13 A, 8 BA and 10 NR. For the life of me, I fail to see how that translates into a 9.7 average no matter WHAT scale you grade on.
Pros: I always enjoyed the company of the people I went there with.
Cons: Everything other than the good compamy!
