Cold Chili’s

That’s not a typo up there, it’s just a play on words. Last night Liz and I met at Chili’s to grab some food and totally received the cold shoulder. It was only 9:00. We even looked around for posted hours and couldn’t find any anywhere. So we stood there. We made eye contact with a waitress and the bartender and I’m pretty sure one other person saw us, yet we stood there. Nobody said anything to us like, “Be with you in a minute”, “Be right with you”, “I’ll go get somebody”, “Sorry we’re closed”, etc. Nothing, zip, zilch and nada. So we walked out and drove down to Applebees. They took care of us.

Then, an hour later we came back to Chili’s to pick up Liz’s car and there were even more cars there than before. So I found their web site and left a Comment/Concern about my latest experience. Maybe I’ll get something free out of this.

    Chalupa,
    Did you happen to go to the one in Muncie? We have had so many bad experiences there. I finally wrote comment to them on their website like you did- we got $10 in gift certificates. Eh.

    Yep, most definitely Muncie. I should have Liz complain to them too.

    Good idea! Get double the amount of coupons! :)

    Hey, I went to the Muncie Chili’s and waited about 20 minutes and no waitperson came — ever. I left and vowed never to return. I was there at lunch time — slightly before noon — in the middle of the week. They acted as if I were invisible. Guess it’s not just me. Linda

    You should go to their website and complain like I did. You’ll probably get some gift certificates like we did.

    Sorry buddy. We ended up getting $20 in certificates - $10/person. It was a worthwhile endeavor.
