How to Order at Chili's and Get the Most Out of It
Start with the 3 For Me
If you are dining alone or watching what you spend, the 3 For Me at $10.99 is the answer. A bottomless drink, a starter, and a full entree is the best value in casual dining in 2026. Go premium tier at $16.99 for Cajun Pasta or Sirloin. It is still excellent value for a sit-down meal.
Know what the Skillet Queso actually costs calorie-wise
The full Skillet Queso order is 1,580 cal per the official nutrition data. Most tables order it as a light starter without realizing. If you want queso, share it between four people. Or order the White Spinach Queso at 480 cal for a much lighter option.
Get the Triple Dipper for two or more people
At $15.99, the Triple Dipper is the best multi-item appetizer value at Chili's. Pick Southwestern Eggrolls (580 cal), Loaded Potato Skins (690 cal), and Boneless Buffalo Wings (620 cal) for variety. Three different flavor profiles, three sauces, one price.
Order the Margarita of the Month
At $5, the rotating monthly margarita is consistently the best drink deal at Chili's and one of the best in casual dining period. It changes every month and has never had a bad offering.
Pick steamed broccoli or black beans as your side
If you want to offset a heavier entree, Steamed Broccoli is 40 cal and Black Beans are 110 cal with 6g fiber and 7g protein. Both are much better nutritionally than the Homestyle Fries at 390 cal or Sweet Potato Fries at 430 cal.
End with the Skillet Cookie, split between two
The Skillet Cookie is 1,200 cal for the full order. Split between two people that is 600 cal each for one of the best desserts in casual dining. It arrives warm in a cast iron skillet with ice cream melting on top.

About Chili's Grill and Bar — 2026 Overview
Chili's Grill and Bar has been serving Tex-Mex inspired casual dining since 1975. The chain operates over 1,200 locations across the United States under Brinker International. What started as a Dallas burger joint built its reputation on fajitas, baby back ribs, and a bar program that made the Margarita of the Month a cultural fixture.
The menu changed significantly in 2026 with the launch of the Big Crispy sandwich line, directly targeting fast food chicken sandwich pricing. This followed the viral success of the 3 For Me deal, which drove significant customer traffic by being one of the only sit-down restaurant deals that competes on price with a fast food combo meal.
The official Chili's nutrition data shows a wide range of calorie counts, from 40 cal for Steamed Broccoli to 1,750 cal for the Honey Chipotle Crispers. The Cajun Chicken Pasta at 1,270 cal and 71g protein is one of the best protein-per-calorie entrees at any casual dining chain in the country.
Beyond the deals, the Chili's menu in 2026 spans over 92 items across 15 categories including appetizers, burgers, chicken, fajitas, ribs, pasta, steaks, salads, soups, sides, a full kids menu, desserts, and a bar program. The Cajun Chicken Pasta remains the single most searched dish, and the Skillet Chocolate Chip Cookie drives some of the highest dessert reorder rates in casual dining.
