"When I order from Chilis, I enjoy their burger selection. I especially enjoy the mushroom burger. Tip: order the burger with no pink this way it comes medium well. If you order it well done they send it burnt. Lol However, the amount of French fries given on my DoorDash order was very disappointing this time around. They gave an u usual minimum amount of French fries on my two orders. (Pic to prove) Other than that, burgers are great! "

"Meat needed better packaging like an actual container instead of just paper but the flavor was amazing at least and the potato salad wasn't as solid as expected from photo with big chunks of potato it was basically minced but tasty"
