Editorial Review for Chevy's Fresh Mex – by Citysearch Staff
In Short
With friendly servers and goofy gimmicks, Chevys is a big draw for families and groups looking for a fun, affordable night out. A full bar and a dozen different margaritas attract a happy hour crowd, and a tortilla machine is often surrounded by children watching the dough-to-tortilla transformation. Fajitas, a house specialty, are available with nearly a dozen different fillings, from mesquite-grilled chicken to portobello mushrooms and asparagus. Desserts include flan and sopaipillas.

Food was good but what I was most impressed with was how clean this place was. We've been out to eat often but when we had a baby and started using high chairs we found ourselves very dissapointed. If you really want to know how clean a restaurant is, check out the highchairs the kids have to sit in. We figured it was just a given that you had to bring something to clean the highchair with before allowing your child to get in it. Other places appear to NEVER clean the highchairs. They have food and dirt all over them from top to bottom not to mention they are often times falling apart with chunks out of the wood frame?? We walked into Chevy's and they grabbed a highchair from a stack of others that all had saran wrap over the top of them. They bring it to your table this way, remove the wrap and underneath is a very clean place for your child to sit and eat. So many other places need to get a clue with this. I think from now on I won't be embarassed to ask someone to come and clean a highchair when were handed a filthy chair for my child. Then I just may ask to speak to a manager as well and suggest that they do as Chevy's does. I guess there are to many places out there that consider kids second class and think nothing of them having to sit and eat in filth. Thanks Chevy's for being a leader in this area. We will be back just because of this even though we could eat for better prices elsewhere.
Pros: Very clean
Cons: Priced a little on the high side

The Chevy's chain has been scraping the bottom for a few years but this location was always solid for me, and I think a lot of other folks liked it too. Judging by the crowds. But after my meal there tonite I won't be back. Nothing against the service. My waitress was top notch but what came out on my plate was dogmeat. I ordered the super cinco which is supposed to be five meat dishes. On my first bite, the port tamale tasted off then "off" began to taste r a n c i d. Only bad pork has that really nasty pungent taste. I moved on to the carne asada taco because I was hungry, The big chucks of steak were so flabby that my teeth couldnt possibly cut through them. i gave up and told the waitress who apologized profusely and brought me out a flauta. (a little better but the chicken still tasted canned) The manager came out later and comped my entree which is good but what I really wanted was the old flavor of the place. That Chevyy's used to be really good. Even the salsa had no flavor. Chevy's is gone.
Pros: Nice servers
Cons: Low quality food, meats are terrible, salsa has no flavor. Chips are stale
