For all of the hype this place got, I thought it was just OK. They do have a chips and salsa bar, but I thought the salsas were uninteresting. The food was ok, but one member of our party got sick that evening, possibly from the food. I don't think I'll go back.

Chu's is a great restaurant, especially for tourists. The atmosphere is great fun, with bright and silly decorations throughout. Staff is friendly and they sell funny T-shirts there. The food is also great Tex-Mex (love their chimichanga's) and they have an Elvis shrine. Warning...they are so popular there will probably be a wait (up to an hour) so go early.

What happens when tackiness, Tex-Mex and Elvis worship collide? You get Chuy's, one of the standouts in a town that is far from bereft of great Mexican food. Nowhere this side of Graceland is the image of Elvis so ubiquitous, and nowhere are the burritos so huge and mouthwateringly delicious. As you dine beneath the hundreds of hubcaps that line the ceiling, go for the blue corn enchiladas with green sauce, crowned with, yes, a fried egg. Tex-Mex Nirvana. And the margaritas. Sheer delight. This is a fun, sometimes noisy place that captures Austin's essence perfectly.
