| - My family and I were quite disappointed with our meal at this Chili's, located in the Charlotte airport. We were starving and had a lengthy lay-over here, so in we came. Despite half the tables being unoccupied when we arrived, the hostess still sat us at the rear of the restaurant, by the bar. The table was tall, with high bar stools and a ceiling vent right overhead, blowing out freezing cold air. We were shivering. And although the table looked clean, there was a sticky, tacky clear syrup all over the table. I only discovered this when I picked up my napkin and my hand became sticky. We called the waiter over, who then sent someone else to wipe down the entire table.
And the food was really sub-par. I ordered a breakfast dish with hash browns, but no spicy spices in the potatoes (the waiter said no problem, they could do this). When our orders all came out later (after a fairly long wait), my hash browns did have the spices on it. Something wasn't right with my hubby's order (although I forget what the issue was). And the prices were really high, for breakfast dishes. In retrospect, we definitely would have gotten our breakfast at the bagel shop further down in the terminal. And I have to mention the coffee: it was horrible. Neither my husband or my teen kids would have it. We all thought it was really bad (and my kids LOVE coffee, especially because we rarely let them drink it). Even they passed on the coffee, after sampling a sip. That alone speaks volumes.
It took a while to get our check, too, despite the place being half empty.
A disappointment, all around. But at least the place was clean.
