Restaurant Review: Chevy’s in Mountain View
By Robert | October 20, 2006
My only reason for ever going to Chevy’s is that they have decent accomodations for a large lunch group from work. Margarita pitchers also don’t hurt. At best the food has its moments, and I like the sweet corn mush that is served with nearly every entree. Unfortunately the food in general is underwhelming. Even with the bar set low, the Chevy’s in Mountain View was a dissapointment.
As expected, a bunch of us at work were planning to have lunch together with an ex-coworker the locale immediately defaulted to Chevy’s. Though the final lunch party turned out to be smaller we still went (reluctantly).
I ordered a “Chipotle Chicken Enchilada.” It was served tepid and I’m not even sure there was Chipotle in the sauce, because it tasted more like a sweet roasted pepper sauce. The rice was too dry. The beans were so-so and I ate too many chips beforehand. The salsa was left over from the day before.
My top shelf margarita spilled when it was delivered, and so the stem got sticky. I hate sticky drinkware.
I don’t recommend the Chevy’s in Mountain View, unless of course you’re desperate to accomodate a larger lunch group on short notice.
