CHECK OTHER REVIEWS FOR THIS PLACE:
With some friends, we decided to visit Chili's, the famous Chili's. The place that introduced the meaning of a diner to the Lebanese a long time ago. We reached the restaurant and in front of the door, a pile of cigarette buds welcomes you: A first impression you don't want to really see, especially if you want your appetite to stay intact. Inside, a very well lit space decorated by the famous red Chili pending from the ceiling. A new menu triggered my curiosity. I wanted to try new items and not the burger I usually order.

Food tonight was below average!
- Upon our arrival we ordered a bottle of water which took forever to come
- Shared appetisers served without individual plates until we asked for them
- Strawberry margarita came too sweet the first time and after we asked for it to be changed it was too sour. Frozen margarita is what made Chili's famous and now...
- The nachos with cheese platter didn't feel fresh
- The wings were warm and not hot enough
- The mozzarella sticks look and taste too commercial
- The fajita meat and chicken are dry and over cooked
- Bread served with the fajitas is thick, chewy and bale. We were four persons and served a plate of three pieces of bread until we asked for more
- The fries are under cooked and soggy
- The chicken crispers taste like a reheated old batch of KFC's chicken
- The famous Molten chocolate cake that brought me here today doesn't taste the same like it did a long time ago. It is still one of my favourite desserts in Lebanon but I expected better
- Samer, the man in charge of training the waiters is just great: He came to our table several times asking us if everything was fine. We told him our margaritas are too sweet, so he changed the pitcher for free bringing us another recipe
- Ashtrays available on all tables are reversed, reminding us that no smoking is allowed
- The ambiance of this place is nice
- The menu is rich and diversified
