Chili's Grill & Bar

The red neon light from the restaurant's iconic sign falls on the street. My 2 friends Heather and Josh stand outside admiring the bold architecture high ceilings and bar of endless bud light and margaritas. We stepped into the doorway, a barrier between the outside world and the marvelous wonderland of middle-class fancy . Our host was kind yet somehow indifferent to your existence. It's a marvel they get them to do anything on the wage they are paid. The space unfolds like a visual symphony, with deep earthy tones serving as the backdrop to a captivating melange of textures and patterns. The walls, adorned with weathered wooden panels and accents of exposed brick, convey a rustic charm that harkens to the cozy corners of Southwestern hideaways. Suspended from the ceiling, clusters of pendant lights cast a warm, amber glow, infusing the space with a sense of intimacy and depth.

Fast casual chain with a Tex-AmEx theme located in the Manhattan Beach Mall. Came here with a group of 9 and we waited about 20 minutes on a Saturday evening around 5:30pm prior to getting a table. Indoor dining only. They have bar seating and that’s where happy hour all day on the weekends is valid. Credit cards accepted. It’s a family friendly spot. We only ordered drinks and apps here, and we had an order of the Texas fries, hand battered chicken crispers with honey mustard, and the triple dipper (where you choose any three). We chose the BBQ chicken crispers, the mozzarella sticks, and Southwestern egg rolls. It’s standard American food and it’s all quite salty, but the prices are cheap so it makes sense. We did need to ask for water/extra utensils and plates multiple times. They do have beer on tap and they have hard seltzers/cocktails too.

I came here and had to wait 20 min for drinks after asking 3 times. Also the waiter was rude and said the soup was cold because that’s the way they make it. I also think the food was carelessly made and lacked any flavor. In general it was a lackluster dinner. Do not go!
