A quick review of the new Chili's Restaurant in Bella Vista, Santo Domingo.
I must say upfront that I normally try to avoid any franchise restaurants, except Outback and Tony Romas, which are just always outstanding.
I never visited a Chili's before, but I am a big Chili fan and therefore thought, how bad could it be.....
The wait for a seat was three times as long as predicted by the Hostess. The waiter was sweat dripping and had a hard time concentrating to take the order. The food took a very long time to arrive, about 45 minutes. To get a beer from the waiter was a challenge. Do not even think about an extra napkin or condiments; Tabasco and Mayo arrived when we were almost done eating.
-The Chili I had was of no taste and had nothing to with Chili I had in Texas for example.
-The boneless Buffalo Wings were dry and the only taste was spicy.
-French Fries were acceptable.
-The Pizza was below the quality of frozen pizza.
-Eventhough the Burger was ordered medium well, it came rare and bloody in the center.
Meanwhile everyone seemed to be very upset as far as customers are concerned. People were yelling for their food....
Not a great experience at all!
