Chevy's Fresh Mex in Glendale, Arizona

While in Glendale, Arizona my husband and I found ourselves in Arrowhead Mall. We decided to grab some food and found Chevy's Fresh Mex.

As we walked in the door, the waiter came up to us and asked, "Are you here for happy hour?" It was good timing on our part, as Chevy's happy hour offers $3.00 drinks and appetizers. We took a seat and ordered some Chili Con Queso and a couple of Margaritas.

While waiting on our appetizer, we ate some chips and fresh salsa. The salsa was made fresh with tomatoes, onions and jalapenos. It packed a bit of a punch, but it was tolerable.

I had a blended Strawberry Margarita, and my husband had a Prickly Pear Margarita. I wasn't a fan of the Prickly Pear Margarita, but my husband had to give it a try since it is something that we do not get a chance to have in Iowa. He loved it though. In fact, we both enjoyed our drinks so much that we had to have a couple more.

Chevy's Fresh Mex menu was full of classic Mexican food choices. You can find a menu at www.chevys.com. One thing that we were impressed with was watching the waiter make fresh guacamole at the table.

We had the Chile Con Queso as an appetizer. It was very good. Had we not been running out of time, we would have ordered actual meals.

Prices were fair. It is what you would expect in a mall environment. Happy hour is really a good deal when it comes to appetizer and drink specials.

The service was exceptional. There were two men taking care of drink and food orders. It was busy, but the waiters took care of everyone with competence and ease.

Dress is casual, and no reservations are needed. It is a walk-in, friendly atmosphere. You can even opt for a table outside.

Chevy's Fresh Mex is ideal for most occasions. It would be great for a casual date or a group get together. It is also family friendly. There are heart-healthy dishes, a full bar, food kids would enjoy, and plenty of parking.
