Chuy’s: Tasty Mexican Fare in Katy, Texas

Obviously Texas has no shortage of Mexican cuisine, so a restaurant has to do something special to earn as much love as Chuy’s. Tex-Mex fare is the order of the day here, and the plates are full of flavor. Portion sizes are also proudly enormous, so you’re guaranteed to walk away feeling full.

The first Chuy’s was opened in 1982 in a former barbecue shop in Austin. Over the next three decades, they grew into a powerhouse chain. The décor is as funky as the menu – the walls are festooned with kitschy velvet paintings, hubcaps hang from the ceiling, and each location has a shrine to Elvis Presley. When the time comes to browse the menu, go for the epic burritos (proudly advertised as being “as big as your face”) – they’re hearty and delicious. Other favorites include the stuffed chile rellenos and the tortilla soup. Don’t leave without getting one of their famous margaritas as well!
