Chuy’s: Mexican Food At Its Best

Dilworth Now News was invited to South Park’s newest Mexican food restaurant and we were wined and dined to perfection. Sharon Balas, the manager and gracious hostess, made sure our experience was not only delightful but that we left there complete.

Chili Relleno plate

The food was really special. I had the enchiladas, burritos, quesadillas, tried all the sauces, tortilla soup and the very special margueritas. Oh, the chili relleno was so good and authentic Mexican. Having lived in the west for many years I have become accustomed to certain spices and tastes of the old west and truly authentic Mexican home cooking. I have to say this is as close to that as I have tasted in Charlotte.

The sauces are the specialty of course; if they are right then you have true Mexican taste. There is Tex Mex, Ranchero, Green Chili (my favorite), Tomatillo and Hatch Green Chili. All the sauces are made from fresh ingredients. No processed or frozen products are used at the restaurant promising freshness and authenticity.

Desserts

 Now for the desert. Flan, a smooth custard with just enough sauce, but oh, the Flan! If you love Flan you really want to taste this. Of course the traditional Tres Leches cake is melt in your mouth delicious made with very light white cake, moist with white cream and its own special sauce. Don’t miss this on your way to Christmas shop or on your way home from South Park. If you live in Raleigh it is worth the drive.

We were impressed with the décor and the round dining room displaying beautiful art, the lighting and the color gives you the feeling of dining in an art gallery. Chuy’s own in house artist has hand painted the entire restaurant in authentic Mexican and western style that fills up the senses for the total experience.
