Found this restaurant on Trip Advisor while traveling through Murfreesboro. I had the bang bang chicken, with red charro beans, hubby had the burger and fries after reading the reviews and taking the serverâs recommendation. The chef/owner came out to see how everything was and thanked us for coming. Server was very helpful, too.

Stopped for lunch with my wife, a friend and his family. Service was spot on, and the food was great. What brought us to Chuyâs was someone mentioned wanting a Chimachanga. The first place that came to mind was Chuyâs. Atmosphere is lively with nice outside seating. By the way, the âChuychangaâ did not disappoint. You will get bowl fulls of the fresh chips and salsa.

I have dined at Freebirds World Burrito a number of times, but I never knew they had TACOâS!!! Decided to sample the taco options and went with Carnitas and Steak. What I love about Freebirds is how fresh everything is from the vegetables, meats, sauces, and individually warmed soft taco shells. Added some queso and chips with a beer and had a wonderful meal. As usual, the service provided was exceptionalâ¦a really nice place to enjoy a meal.

My favorite thing is the chicken fajitas. You get a ice portion and they are delicious. They have some good menu options and I do like the burgers as well, but not gravitating towards the fajitas. Have also tried the beef and like the chicken better.
