I worked as a server/bartender at Chili’s all through college. The strawberry lemonade has actual strawberry puree mixed in it instead of just syrup. Thats why it’s so yummy!😋
Sending my thoughts and prayers for a smooth surgery and recovery for Matt. Thanks for always brightening my day - been a long time watcher but just wanted to share my appreciation for your continued positivity and energy. There’s just something about your videos that bring a smile to my face!
I'm that broccoli lover that orders it as a side, or asparagus, green beans etc. I can't have anything breaded or anything like that, but even if I I could..I LOVE vegetables! Hope Matt has a speedy recovery!
Oh my gosh, Erin! 😂🤣 You and Matt are a riot. You can be a duo stand-up act. I am so glad you did not lose all the food out the back of your car. I adore your food commentary! Matt seemed so disappointed about the bean burger. 😕 What was his last big meal prior to the surgeries? Hope he is on the mend! 🙏🤞
We're like this alll the time...we're always nonsensical together and it's the best! They pushed his surgery until Thursday and the first one is the cyst, so he has a few weeks to decide what his last meal will be!!
I got confused for a sec there and thought Matt was the one doing the surgery and I was like, "Huh, cool, I didn't know he was a doctor." Hope all goes well! (p.s. this is the first food related vid I've been able to watch since coming down with a stomach bug Thursday morning, so thank you very much for the fab content, Erin!)
Oh Erin, my friend - I was the mom who forgot to buckle her newborn in her seat and didn’t click the seat in. She is a broccoli gworl!!! Lolololol!!! I feel you! 🌶️s chips and salsa are my #2 choice- #1 is Matteo’s and thin chips. Happy Summer ☀️
I think every mom has one of those moments! My mom put me on top of the car in a car seat and drove down the street with me on top of the car before realizing she forgot to put me in. I realize that is way worse, but I think moms have too much to juggle generally!
@@ErinRobinson and the funny thing is now, she’s 10 and I’ve made worse mom mistakes since then, like her needing 9 cavities filled after the pandemic became our excuse to over eat sugar - yet she’ll still mention that time “ I forgot to buckle her in the Christmas Tree Shoppes parking lot!” But see like your mom did, and so did I, we told our babies the mistake we made. You would’ve never known otherwise! Lol! Have a great week!
The chicken enchilada soup is my go-to at Chili's! I don't know if they still have the lunch menu where you get bottomless soup, salad and chips w salsa, but that's what I always got!
I love how at the start Matt was all about it and then went away for you to take center stage! 2 things about your comment about the B roll: (1) I haven't gone to Chili's in about 10 years because I always struggled to find stuff that I enjoyed on the menu - part of me thinks this could be the reason you're struggling to make it look appealing and (2) your talking footage seems to have a different feel than usual, like maybe it's a different frame rate or something? (lol idk, I'm still a camera novice!)
Oh yay, Erin is back!!! Loves it!! And so is the pterodactyl!! ❤❤ You are too funny, lmao 😂😂😂. But also, who is she?? Eating shrimp and a veggie pattie?? 🫡 This was so much fun, I can't wait for the next one!! Also, all the best to Matt. It's always so good to see him too, hope he's recuperating, okay!! 💖💖💖
LOL I am the person who orders the broccoli! Cheese sauce should be kept FAR AWAY from the broccoli. Cheese sauce is for chips and cheese only not on veggies
I'm a diabetic too, I just learned something new. I was definitely lukewarm on the chicken sandwich. Chili's to me is solid bar food so I knew what to expect. It wasn't too disappointed by what I got but I don't think I need to hop on it again. What I SHOULD have gotten was any of those burgers. I'm mad that I didn't. (By the way, food hack: if you want a big salad with your meal and you order out, get the salad as an appetizer and a side and combine it.)
Oh, 🌶’s, thank you for sustaining my high school self on Skillet Queso and TexMex Egg-rolls. You burn deep in my heart, and also caused the worst heartburn.
I haven't been to Chili's in years. I use to love there mushroom swiss burger and the bone in buffalo wings. For happy hour they use to give free chips/salsa and buffalo wings. Their margurita was also very good!! They now have smash burger that is suppose to be like a big mac. Maybe give that a try. They were known for their baby back ribs ( they had a commercial promoting it with a catchy tune). Maybe give that a try!!🌶 I hope Matt's surgery went well.😊
My husband's little trick with ordering steaks at most places is to order them medium rare that way he knows he'll either get that or a medium steak. Either way, he'll be happy with it, (:
I order broccoli but it’s also like my favorite vegetable (ik im weird it’s fine). I loooove broccoli with either rice or mashed potatoes as a side for salmon and I order salmon at sit down restaurants a lot!
Im not a chicken tender/strips person but them honey chipotle crispers are my favorite ...!!!!!!!! But i live 40 mins from chilis so when i go i eat there lol
I choked on my sandwich when you said your Chili's was hanging out. I don't like chicken tenders on a sandwich either. Too much breading. 😂 Sending Matt healing vibes! 💝
Matt hovering in the background at the beginning made me laugh. My Matt loves Chili’s and that’s totally what he would be doing. 😆 But now we both want Chili’s.
I haven't had Chili's in about a decade. There's only one that I am aware of in about a 100 mile radius of me. I'm not even positive that one is still open. I remember there used to be two options for the tenders. Once battered (which I preferred) or double battered. All the ones I saw you eat were the latter. Maybe the first option isn't even a thing anymore? Edit: I just googled and there are only six Chili's in Iowa, the nearest to me being 84 miles. So definitely not worth the trip 😅
Sillies for chilis! Haha. So the chicken sandwich used to (like a few months ago) have a chick fila sauce dupe instead of mayo and it had lettuce on it I think. Idk why they changed it.
Erin, I’ve been watching for a while (since your old RUclips job). Really love your videos and follow on Instagram. Rooting for you and Matt in your fertility journey. Good luck and forever subscriber
So glad you confirmed for me that their chicken tenders have a weird, tendony texture. It’s especially sad since you get the most side options when you choose chicken tenders as your main. But it’s never worth it. Every year or so I try them again to see if the recipe has changed, but no 😕
Not to gross you out but I know why all of the chicken strips texture was off. If I'm not mistaken they make their strips from scratch and I don't believe they remove the white piece of tendon that runs down the length of the tenderloin. It will be chewy or rubbery like gristle on a steak. I prefer my chicken strips to be made using the breast meat instead just cut smaller like the tenderloin. I've found most restaurants will almost always overcook my steak so I order mine rare in the hopes that it will be between medium rare and medium.
lol broccoli person here 🙋🏻♀️ I could eat it like every day! And yes I have ordered it as a side instead of fries before … I know I know 🥴 😂 I was always a typical picky youngest child except with broccoli lol it’s weird 🤷🏻♀️
Any time I order corn on the cob at Chilis it's always rubbery and weird. I almost always order steamed brocolli. My kid always tries to get away with mashed potatoes and fries, but she is only allowed 1 of the 2 and her 2nd is almost always brocolli too! (She's 10)
Becoming a vegetarian has only made me bitter that there's not many options for me at Chili's because girl I freaking LOVE Chili's. Their honey chipotle crispers remain iconic for me, lol. New veggie burgers pls :')
@@ErinRobinson I used to say “it’s like the lil trees are on fire” and I apparently wanted to eat a flaming tree 😂 I still always get it as a side when I can!
I worked as a server/bartender at Chili’s all through college. The strawberry lemonade has actual strawberry puree mixed in it instead of just syrup. Thats why it’s so yummy!😋
This makes so much sense and makes me love it even more!
Sending my thoughts and prayers for a smooth surgery and recovery for Matt. Thanks for always brightening my day - been a long time watcher but just wanted to share my appreciation for your continued positivity and energy. There’s just something about your videos that bring a smile to my face!
I ALWAYS appreciate posts like this! I am so glad you're here and that we can all have fun here together!
Not even finished with the video but sending healing vibes Matt's way! And ugh Erin, you are just so adorable 😊😂
Thank you so much! They pushed his surgery a few days, so he's still in good shape but the big day is Thursday! We will take all the prayers!!
I'm that broccoli lover that orders it as a side, or asparagus, green beans etc. I can't have anything breaded or anything like that, but even if I I could..I LOVE vegetables!
Hope Matt has a speedy recovery!
Same, I get veggies as a side most of the time so I’m in the broccoli crew 🎉
Okay, what is a veggie that you don't like!!!?? I love that you're a greens girl!
Recovery vibes sent to Matt!!!
Erin, you just make my day!!!
Thank you! I will relay the message to him!!
You two are adorable. Sending prayers for a quick recovery.
Thank you! It's going to be a wild couple of weeks
Oh my gosh, Erin! 😂🤣 You and Matt are a riot. You can be a duo stand-up act. I am so glad you did not lose all the food out the back of your car. I adore your food commentary! Matt seemed so disappointed about the bean burger. 😕 What was his last big meal prior to the surgeries? Hope he is on the mend! 🙏🤞
Also, I am with you; corn on the cob and corn in general is an excellent, underrated side dish! 🌽🌽🌽🌽😋😋😋😋💚💚💚💚
We're like this alll the time...we're always nonsensical together and it's the best! They pushed his surgery until Thursday and the first one is the cyst, so he has a few weeks to decide what his last meal will be!!
@@MelissaMarini Agreed!!!!
Oh my, @@ErinRobinson! Well, sending well wishes his way and great caregiver wishes to you. 🙏🤞🥰

(p.s. this is the first food related vid I've been able to watch since coming down with a stomach bug Thursday morning, so thank you very much for the fab content, Erin!)
This made me chuckle! He actually was pre-med but decided it wasn't for him. I hope you're feeling better!!!!! Stomach bugs are the worst!!

Broccoli ✋️ Lol favorite veggie, cooked or raw.
Okay, I have wanted to be a raw broccoli eater SO BAD but it never tastes good to me....even covered in ranch! But cooked...I can get behind it
Brocolli ordered here.. love it and it balances the other stuff❤
The chicken enchilada soup is my go-to at Chili's! I don't know if they still have the lunch menu where you get bottomless soup, salad and chips w salsa, but that's what I always got!
Great work, iniciative,practícal...wow, I write all, all restaurants...God bless You.

Sending healing vibes to Matt. Also love and blessings to you both. And I am a broccoli side dish girl 😁🥰
Thank you so so much! Praying everything goes smoothly!!
i loveeee broccoli as a side dish!! i also 100% get the chicken tender texture thing. i felt the same way when i tried them
I love how at the start Matt was all about it and then went away for you to take center stage!

3 for Me or 3 for the Highway, lol 😸 Thank you for sharing, Erin! 💕
Wait wait wait… no top 10? Or top 5?
Oh yay, Erin is back!!! Loves it!! And so is the pterodactyl!! ❤❤ You are too funny, lmao 😂😂😂. But also, who is she?? Eating shrimp and a veggie pattie?? 🫡
This was so much fun, I can't wait for the next one!!
Also, all the best to Matt. It's always so good to see him too, hope he's recuperating, okay!! 💖💖💖
I'm back! Had to take a week off to deal with life stuff but we're back!!!!
Hiii Erin, Ok, I've been wanting to go back to Chili's, It's been a minute...needed this! Also, Healing vibes to Matt❤
LOL I am the person who orders the broccoli! Cheese sauce should be kept FAR AWAY from the broccoli. Cheese sauce is for chips and cheese only not on veggies
Boiled broccoli with sea salt is everything 🤤🥦🥦🥦😍
I'm a diabetic too, I just learned something new.
I was definitely lukewarm on the chicken sandwich. Chili's to me is solid bar food so I knew what to expect. It wasn't too disappointed by what I got but I don't think I need to hop on it again.

(By the way, food hack: if you want a big salad with your meal and you order out, get the salad as an appetizer and a side and combine it.)
Their burgers were really yummy! I usually just eat appetizers when I am there so I feel like this is one of the first burgers I've had there!!
Praying for Matt's quick recovery!
Thanks Cindy!
Try Popeyes or White Castles next please, maybe Whataburger if you have one you guys. :)
I love watching you, Erin!
This makes my day! I have the best time making videos for you all!!!
Sillies for Chilis! Wishing Matt a fast recovery!
A SILLIES SUBSCRIBER!!!!! Love it!!!
Happy Sunday speedy recovery and support for Grant always love your content I'll try Chilli's soon have a blessed Sunday
Hope Matt is doing well. A lot of those foods look good. I'm surprised there was no top 10 in this video.
Feel better soon Matt!❤
I love Chili’s! Can’t wait to watch this.
I do too. I wish I had a Chili's closer to me in LA. I'd be there alllllll the timeeeee
Good advice for greens👍 and yes much love for Matt ☺️ Chili’s was great and yummy 😋😘🥰
Oh, 🌶’s, thank you for sustaining my high school self on Skillet Queso and TexMex Egg-rolls. You burn deep in my heart, and also caused the worst heartburn.
I can taste those egg rolls overtime I think about them. They're so iconic
I haven't been to Chili's in years. I use to love there mushroom swiss burger and the bone in buffalo wings. For happy hour they use to give free chips/salsa and buffalo wings. Their margurita was also very good!!
They now have smash burger that is suppose to be like a big mac. Maybe give that a try. They were known for their baby back ribs ( they had a commercial promoting it with a catchy tune). Maybe give that a try!!🌶
I hope Matt's surgery went well.😊
I hope Matt feels better soon!!
I’m a broccoli people! Lol but I try to get a green veg and salad as my sides 🤪
My husband's little trick with ordering steaks at most places is to order them medium rare that way he knows he'll either get that or a medium steak. Either way, he'll be happy with it, (:
He's a pro!!! I should start doing that!
I’m team broccoli. And I’d probably like the blackberry tea. But I’m with you on the chicken tender texture.
The potato soup is my favorite!
I order broccoli but it’s also like my favorite vegetable (ik im weird it’s fine). I loooove broccoli with either rice or mashed potatoes as a side for salmon and I order salmon at sit down restaurants a lot!
Home girl 🥦 is my favourite, and corn!
Sillies for Chili’s ❤😂
Their salsa will always be my number 1
Im not a chicken tender/strips person but them honey chipotle crispers are my favorite ...!!!!!!!! But i live 40 mins from chilis so when i go i eat there lol
Omg I didn't know you could sub black bean burger! I'm not veg but I love them and love that option!
I choked on my sandwich when you said your Chili's was hanging out. I don't like chicken tenders on a sandwich either. Too much breading. 😂 Sending Matt healing vibes! 💝
Sillies for Chili's! Love your personality!
Matt isn’t wrong Chili’s original chicken crispers were tempura battered and not like the newer ones.Also, sending healing vibes to Matt.
Yes!! I feel like I remember those!!!! I love tempura battered foods!
I order broccoli on the side at restaurants, I literally love broccoli!!!
🙋♀🙋♀Broccoli person here. Love it.
Wishing Matt a speedy recovery! I don’t like the chicken crispers from Chilis either. The batter is weird and the chicken is chewy
Matt hovering in the background at the beginning made me laugh. My Matt loves Chili’s and that’s totally what he would be doing. 😆 But now we both want Chili’s.
I can tell how much he likes a video concept by whether or not he's hanging around! lol!
sipping on angels lol 🤣
Thinking of Matt and sending him healing vibes. Also, my 16 year old son loves broccoli. Weird, I know!
Wish it was in store so fresh!
I haven't had Chili's in about a decade. There's only one that I am aware of in about a 100 mile radius of me. I'm not even positive that one is still open.

Edit: I just googled and there are only six Chili's in Iowa, the nearest to me being 84 miles. So definitely not worth the trip 😅
I think the same thing about the chicken crisper and my boyfriend never knows what I’m talking about!
I loved Chilli's! They closed ours down. That was an awesome deal!
I love some broccoli as a side to steak or ribs specifically as well as mashed potatoes 😋🤤🥦
Chili's chips and salsa are the BEST!
My local Chili's closed down and I am so sad.
Get better soon, Matt!
Sillies for chilis all day baby!! 👏
I love steamed broccoli. Its so good for you!
When you order steak to take home, order it more rare, it'll carry over cook in that container!
Also, get well soon, Matt!
I need to do this next time! I love these pro tips!!!! He says THANK YOU!
Thank you for making this video. Hope you are doing well. ❤
OH! 😗 Hope Matt is doing well 🙏🏻 Great video as always Queen 👑 Erin!! 🥰 👏🏻👏🏻 That did look like a bit much bacon (never thought Id say that😆).
Great video, have a nice weekend :)
Love the chillies content, sillies for chillies
I, as well, order broccoli, too, and I also had to have broccoli smeared with cheese where I could see them
Burger looked amazing!
Sillies for chilis! Haha. So the chicken sandwich used to (like a few months ago) have a chick fila sauce dupe instead of mayo and it had lettuce on it I think. Idk why they changed it.
Erin, I’ve been watching for a while (since your old RUclips job). Really love your videos and follow on Instagram. Rooting for you and Matt in your fertility journey. Good luck and forever subscriber
Love broccoli as a side dish! If its an option, i get it
We are broccoli people! Everyone in our family of 4 get it as our second side at most places.
So glad you confirmed for me that their chicken tenders have a weird, tendony texture. It’s especially sad since you get the most side options when you choose chicken tenders as your main. But it’s never worth it. Every year or so I try them again to see if the recipe has changed, but no 😕
Okay, I feel seen!!! Sometimes I wonder if I am the only one!!!
I went to chillis on Wednesday and I ordered broccoli lol I LOVE IT
Not to gross you out but I know why all of the chicken strips texture was off. If I'm not mistaken they make their strips from scratch and I don't believe they remove the white piece of tendon that runs down the length of the tenderloin.

Get well soon Matt sorry Erin but I love Broccoli
Hoping Matt is doing ok! ✨

I eat broccoli (with lemon or Asian seasonings) at home, but not so much for a fun restaurant meal, lol.
Broccoli lover here! 😅
Another great video! Silly’s for Chilis. :D
Becoming a vegetarian has only made me bitter that there's not many options for me at Chili's because girl I freaking LOVE Chili's. Their honey chipotle crispers remain iconic for me, lol. New veggie burgers pls :')
UM, I order steamed broccoli as a side whenever it is available! 🥦🥦🥦🥦🥦🥦
I order broccoli on the side I cannot lie!
I am a side of broccoli person!! I love steamed broccoli dipped in ketchup, I have since I was a small child 😭 🥦
DIPPED IN KETCHUP!!!!!!!????? This is truly a first!!
@@ErinRobinson I used to say “it’s like the lil trees are on fire” and I apparently wanted to eat a flaming tree 😂 I still always get it as a side when I can!
Double veggie patty was a CHOICE (love, a vegetarian) lol
Chilis has the best corn on the cob.
Also, if I order steak I get I get broccoli as one of my sides
This!!! It is SO DELICIOUS!!!
I love Chili’s! Sillies for Chili’s! 😂
Overall a good review. (Very distracting when you keep turning your back to the camera though). First time watcher.
Hi! and Welcome!!!! Glad to see you here and I always appreciate feedback!!!
Agreed.
Sillies for Chili's 😂
Poor husband just lurking, starving, 😂
10:12 🥦✋🏾💜
lol I always order broccoli or a veggie side😂🤦🏼♀️
