Gluten-Free at Chili's

We walk here often. Fajitas are safe with corn tortillas. Ribs are safe with certain sides. My belly is ultra sensitive & I’ve never had an issue eating here. Gluten free menu has wings & fries on it however no dedicated fryer so not safe.

I got the half rack of ribs with house bbq and loaded potato soup. It came with another side so I asked for the mac and cheese (to give to my sister) and requested that it not touch the other food. We got our meals and the mac and cheese was in a cup on its own (great!) but they also gave me fries which were all over my ribs. They do not have a dedicated fryer so there is a high chance of cross contamination. They screwed up my mom’s order too and she doesn’t have allergies, so I don’t think this is the place to go if you need your food done right. I didn’t get sick, but if you are sensitive, id probably go somewhere else. The potato soup was really good!

Went to their gluten free menu and got the baby back ribs, mashed potatoes, and sweet corn. Got sick within seconds of finishing the ribs unfortunately, their house barbecue sauce I’m guessing has flour in it.

So I had PJ (?) as a server. My dad wanted to come here for his birthday dinner. I am visiting. In general corpus doesn’t have a lot of options for GF. I asked if they had a physical allergen/gluten menu and PJ pretty aggressively said no and then acted very cold toward me the rest of the time my family ate. From what I can tell via Google they have a very limited allergen menu. When we went to pay on the tiny iPad it says they have a gluten/allergy menu. I don’t eat meat as well so it’s even more limited. You can eat sides. They probably share a fryer. Weird environment and attitude. Also my margarita was very very salty? Weird. Bad vibes limited choices. Probably don’t eat here.

Great food, great atmosphere, and they're willing to work with my Gluten intolerance. Unfortunately their gluten friendly menu is very small. There is about 5 dishes total in their "Guiltless Grill".

However they have no issues with me bringing in a Gluten Free burger bun and I just order one of their burgers without a bun. So if you're gluten intolerant like me and you don't mind assembling your burger a bit, it's a great place to eat at.

Or if you get in before 4 PM you can indulge in the Bottomless Soup, Salad, and Chips. Just be sure to get the baked potato soup as it's the only gluten free soup they got, and ask for no Croutons on your Salad.

Another option if you're doing the thee 3 for me deal, and you're not in the mood for burgers, is to order the Quesadilla plate and as to exchange the flour Tortillas with cornflour Tortilla chips. Heck I'd recommend that even if you're not gluten intolerant

Seriously try it!

Was apprehensive about going since it’s a large chain but they gave me two linked menus- a gluten free menu and an allergy list menu. Spent a lot of time cross referencing the two. Not many items can be made without cross contact and they don’t have gluten free buns but are upfront about what you can and can’t do. Have a gluten and dairy allergy ordered the half rack bbq ribs with broccoli and rice. Was okay and didn’t get sick. Would come back but probably have to get ribs again since it’s so limited

Can the menu truly be considered gluten free if everything is made together? QR code for gluten free items says almost none of the dishes are made separate from gluten containing ones. I had the loaded potato soup because it seemed like the only option. Was not feeling well later that day.

Gluten free items are NOT listed on the menu, but that being said the waitress was very knowledgeable about gluten friendly options and cross contamination risks. Burgers can be made without a bun, some salads are ok, they have corn tortillas so she said some quesadilla options can be made gluten free. No dedicated fryer. Not listed on the menu but they do carry Glutenberg beer!

Service was great! I told them I had a gluten allergy and they made sure the chef was aware. They have a gluten sensitive menu online. I had the baby back ribs with the house bbq. The sides that come with the ribs are NOT gluten free, so I got the loaded mashed potatoes and broccoli. It was mediocre. The ribs were dry and had little meat and the broccoli was dry as well. The mashed potatoes were great though! I did not react to this meal and I am very sensitive

They have a good gluten free menu All the burgers are considered gf IF they don't have a bun. I ordered French fries, which are not fried in a dedicated fryer, however, I'm just sensitive to gluten. I ordered a mushroom Swiss burger that was very good. They didn't have any gluten free alcohol, but that wasn't a deal breaker for me.

I'm a newly diagnosed celiac, and this was my first time eating out. I selected Chili's because it has a gluten free menu available online. I was pleasantly surprised at how much they offered. They also clearly indicated which items were cooked on surfaces where food could come into contact with gluten, and they even included which salad dressings were gluten free. We sat at the bar. When I asked the bar tender if their margaritas were gluten free, he knew what I was talking about. He didn't know for sure but thought the sweet and sour mix might have gluten. He was very patient as I figured out my order, and made a note for the cook to be careful. I felt safe eating the ribs, but it's so early in my diagnosis, I'm not sure if I would have symptoms if cross contaminated. The only reason I gave it a 4 is because they don't provide information on their drinks.

Update January 2022: I ordered take out steak with mashed potatoes and broccoli. No symptoms! And I have become extremely sensitive to gluten and know when I've been glutened. Also, heard back from corporate, and their presidente margaritas are gluten free! I'll be checking those out soon and will update if my experience says otherwise.

Update September 2022: I have eaten here at least 7-8 times now and have had a positive experience every time, including several times with takeout. I generally get the ribs or steak with mashed potatoes and broccoli or a salad. Still never been glutened.

So I have Lupus and I’ve developed a new problem… Gluten! I didn’t have time to cook yesterday so we tried Chili’s. I looked up the GF menu. Easy and printable! I ordered the Guiltless Margarita Chicken with a side salad, Citrus Balsamic Vinaigrette. So good! I did eat some chips (I couldn’t help myself) which probably explains why my skin is all itchy today. I give Chili’s a 👍🏻

Chili’s definitely impressed me with their extensive gluten free options. No gluten free buns, but can get bun less. But the best part is they have a dedicated fryer for French fries!!!! Some of the menus has places that shows the chips to be gluten free, however the Chili’s in Ennis’s they are not in a dedicated fryer but the French Fries have a dedicated fryer.

I was traveling for a family funeral & was not familiar with this particular area. After we attempted to eat at Reba’s but it was closed we were going to continue driving until we found a place who come accommodate my special dietary issues & restrictions. As we were driving we found a relatively new Chili’s. I spoke to your mgr on duty & she was more than knowledgeable and even made sure the cook staff were aware. Thank you SO much.
