About Chili’s Grill and Bar

Chili’s founder Larry Lavine had a dream when he opened the first Chili’s location in Dallas, Texas, in 1975. His dream was to “create a place you’d want to go to hang out with good friends over a burger and a beer” and to “offer a genuine Southwest spirit filled with positive energy”. Lavine converted an old post office into a fully functioning funky little restaurant.

The original menu was actually minuscule compared to today’s menu. From 1975-1978, Chili’s only offered a couple of styles of chili, chili tacos, a handful of different hamburgers, and three drink options. The original Chili’s location has since been torn down; however, if you order a bowl of Terlingua Chili, you’ll be enjoying the original recipe that was crafted by Larry Levine in the 1970’s.

Over the years, Chili’s restaurant quickly gained popularity and began expanding. By 1983, 23 different locations had popped up in six different states. Twenty years ago, Chili’s opened in Mexico, and in 2004 the chain opened their first location in Europe. Today there are over 1,600 locations in 32 different countries.

A fun, not-so-well-known fact about Chili’s is that every Chili’s location has a red and green painted picture hanging upside down somewhere in the restaurant. If you’re dining in, have fun with your group by making it a competition to see who can find it first.
