Chili's - A Popular Casual Dining Restaurant with a Tex-Mex Style

Chili's publishes their menu on their website.

There is a section for Allergen Menus, where Chili's gives links to each of these:

  • Chili's Egg Allergen Information
  • Chili's Fish Allergen Information
  • Chili's Dairy Allergen Information
  • Chili's Peanut Allergen Information
  • Chili's Shellfish Allergen Information
  • Chili's Soy Allergen Information
  • Chili's Tree Nut Allergen Information
  • Chili's Wheat and Gluten Allergen Information.

These menus change every month so Chili's advise you to check back regularly.

If you have a food allergy, you know that cross-contamination is always a risk. You have to take all the regular safeguards for your own particular allergy, and always alert the manager before you order.

These allergen menus are not separate from Chili's regular menu. The special menus are lists of suggested foods from the regular Chili's menus.

An example: Tree Nut Allergen Menu

For example, if you have a tree nut allergy, there are 13 categories of menu items with selections without nuts (tree nuts):

  • soups
  • salads
  • salad dressings
  • sides
  • fajitas and favourites
  • desserts
  • bigmouth burgers
  • sizzle & spice
  • guiltless grill & grilled entrees
  • steaks
  • sandwiches
  • pepper pals
  • extras.

If you look at any category of food on the tree nut allergy meal, for example, soups, you find a list of all the regular menu items which are suitable for people with tree nut allergies:

  • baked potato soup
  • black bean soup
  • broccoli cheese soup
  • chicken noodle soup
  • chili terlingua soup
  • clam chowder.

The allergen menu is not a guarantee that any menu item is free of allergens. Everyone has to be aware of their own sensitivity and use appropriate caution.
