Chili’s Grill and Bar

Chili’s - Big Dishes and Bottomless Drinks

When I first visited the restaurant in year 2007, I ordered Firecracker Fish Fillet (RM28.95++). I was informed that the dishes there are usually big. Unfortunately, this is not the case for the fish fillet I ordered. Kind of unfortunate for the first visit.

Another uniqueness in Chili’s is that you can enjoy “bottomless” soft drink, fruit juice, and potato chips. Just call for waitress and they will help you refill the glass.

Time flies by and I had entered Chili’s 4 times. During my 2nd visit (Jan 2008), I ordered “Fajita Quesadillas” (RM 24.95++). I was asked to whether or not to add rice + black bean. Chinese man like me sure say “yes”. I regretted later as I underestimated their dish size. It consists of 8 slices of “kebab ayam” a-like fajitas (and rice! and bean!) and I had to take away some as my dinner that day.

For 3rd visit, I ordered “Tequila-Lime Fish Steak” (RM26.95++) and again is a small dish (taste okay anyway). I ordered Chicken Crisper on my latest visit in August.

Overall, all the food mentioned tastes good even though it is at expensive side. You should visit Chili’s if you have big stomach and look for big dishes. In fact, their burgers are quite big as well. Many foreign visitors like to visit the place due to “bottomless” drinks and big dishes. I heard that their reservation system is kind of weird as they don’t entertain non-full party and you are not allowed to bring in food from outside.

Sadly, the official website does not have local menu, which is a minus for cheap slave class like me to prepare enough coins for the meal.

    NIce review on Chili's Grill Bar. But i recommend you to have the Flame Grill Ribeye and the burgers over there. It so delicious and big that after you ate it you can spend the whole day without eating anything.

    Nice review. I've never really enjoyed Chilli's honestly. I group them in the same category and quality because I'm neither impressed with their quality nor service.

    However, the most fun-est thing to do in Chilli's is to get a group of you...say around 6. Order bottoms stuff for everything, including the Fajita chips. Adding insult to injury, try ordering stuff from the kids menu. You'd be surprised how decent it can taste, especially if you choose the right stuff from the K. Menu, particularly the burger.

    Divided by 6, the cost of the meal for each person didn't really come up to much. Not tooo shabby, and wayyy filling tooo.

    PS: It might actually help if you bring some one that actually looks like a kid =)

    Is diagonally opposite Jogoya. Supposedly the quality is better than Jogoya. Price wise, if we convert currency, then Malaysia is cheaper. If we do not convert currency, then Singapore is cheaper. Generally, a japanese buffet in Siingapore is around SGD30+ range.

    I'm not sure exactly where the original Leong Kee moved to, but I believe the one at Sultan Gate is still there. I also saw one at junction of Jln Besar and Hindoo road. Just at the junction before beancurd city

    CyberTron commented..
    hi! The bak kut teh at this place is Klang style. If you refering to the peppery style Bak Kut Teh you typically find in Singapore, then this is not the place for you. For the peppery style one, the famous ones are probably ones are Balestier Road or the one at Tanjong Pagar complex. For me, I usually just go to Song Fa at Rochor which is decent for me, and more convenient as well.

    I don't remember if i'd ever come across cheap and nice seafood in KL...I suggest you to plan a trip to Sabah, that's really what I call heaven for seafood lovers. ;-)
