Established in 1982 in Austin, Texas, our founders had a vision for a fun and funky Tex-Mex restaurant that served authentic and fresh food in an atmosphere that appealed to everyone. From these humble beginnings Chuy's was born!

Tex what? While we refer to our food as “Tex-Mex”, our menu offers a combination of flavors, with recipes and ingredients from across New Mexico, the Rio Grande Valley, deep South Texas, Mexico, our hometown of Austin and beyond. We are committed to providing authentic Tex-Mex using only the freshest ingredients. Our menu includes hand-rolled tortillas cooked all day on a traditional comal, our famous hand-squeezed lime juice margaritas and salsa fresca made in small batches throughout the day. We serve ten homemade Signature Sauces, ranging from the mild Tomatillo Sauce to the spicy Hatch Green Chile Sauce. A must-try is our fan favorite Creamy Jalapeño Sauce that’s so good you could drink it – trust us, we’ve seen it done.
