“Took my family here in an effort to try something new. Great atmosphere and great service. We are from Dallas and love Tex-Mex. Though it’s not the best I’ve ever had, it was still very good. The live music was great too. My husband loved it. We will be back. Nothing fancy but still clean and no wait on a Saturday night.” Stephanie J. – Yelp Review

“I’ve got to say, I’m a sucker for local family owned places. Walking in Hello Taco, I was impressed. Freshly made tortillas, only put into the maker once I order them? Yes! If you only get 1 item, CARNE ASADA. That’s all you really have to know. Everything is fresh, made to order, and the staff is super friendly. Love this place!” – Thomas S. – Yelp Review

Chuy’s Mexican Restaurant – 3.80/5 Stars (125 Reviews) $$
Chuy’s Mexican Restaurant Website | Directions | Link to Yelp Profile
Tex what? While we refer to our food as “Tex-Mex”, our menu is made up of a combination of flavors, with recipes and ingredients from across New Mexico, Mexican border towns, the Rio Grande Valley, deep South Texas, Austin and beyond. Our Green Chile sauce recipe was “borrowed” from a little hole-in-the-wall in Española, New Mexico, and our fajita marinade is an old South Texas family recipe (used at some “infamous” South Padre Island beach parties.) Mike and John wanted to bring FRESH to Tex-Mex, and that commitment to food is still the core of everything Chuy’s does today.
“I dream about this place – Jalepeno ranch dressing is truly what good dreams are made of. Whenever I am in Texas I make it a priority to visit Chuy’s for some tacos and jalepeno ranch dressing. This place is a no frills Tex-Mex chain that can be found in Houston and Austin, and I am just truly in love with it.” Linsey M. – Yelp Review
