   Steak is definitely not to order. Order was over cooked even for the second time around. Dry and chewy meat. Best is their chips and dip and enchiladas and taco- Mexican food of cos- Just jot their steak

   Maybe it was because our reservation was for 8 people at 2:00 pm and the poor server was the only one for the entire section of the restaurant, but no table had been prepared for us, we were given drink menus but had to ultimately find someone to get the food menus, given the chips and dip with no utensils or napkins, were seated in a cold draft but denied sitting in another area because 'we have no wait staff there.' The server did offer to close the doors and she tried her best. Three of us had tortilla soup which had no tortilla strips in it and had red pepper flakes so spicy we couldn't drink it. Menu said choice of dressing on my lunch salad but there was no dressing on it. One of us received her entree 10 minutes after the rest. Everyone liked their enchilada, fajita and chile relleno dishes. We did give the server an extremely generous tip because of the challenges she had.

   It was my birthday and I made a somewhat last minute reservation. Everyone was very kind and they allowed us to bring our own cake and gave us plates and cutlery to use

   Glad to see there are still a few Chevy's restaurants. Tried this one for the first time. Our waiter was attentive. The food was what we've come to expect from Chevy's. Overall, great experience.

   We waited at the entrance for 5 minutes while the hostess and 2 other employees discussed where to seat people. We were seated at a table in the bar area. We ordered our food and when it was delivered there were no tortillas to eat the fajatias. We tried 3 time yo flag our waitress down and she did not acknowledge us Then we stopped another employee walking by and he said the tortillas were on the way. To make a long story short my husband finished his mediocre combo plate before the tortillas arrived. We were big fans of Chevy's but it seems their food and service have gone down hill.

   We were there during happy hour where drinks were half off. When we confirmed this with the server, she said drinks are only half off if we sat at another area. If this were so, why was there menus advertising the half off on drinks on both ends of our table with 10 people? When we asked to move to the area they said where the drinks were half off, they came back with it will take one hour to move us. That is the most ridiculous thing we've ever heard. The restaurant was not that busy where we have to wait one hour after we made the reservation online and also called the restaurant to confirm the time of the reservation. The server apologizes for having menus advertising happy hour on our table and they can not honor their mistake. We will not be returning to this Chevy's. When the check came there was a surcharge added to our bill. What is that for???

    Typically had better service here but they were pretty busy and service wasn’t up to par. Food is fine. Don’t know when they stopped the complimentary tortillas. They’re now an additional charge, unless you get fajitas. Please allow at least one tortilla per meal.
