Chili's Restaurant

I'm a big fan of Chili's. I have been to the one on Route 31 by Great Northern Mall and also the one on Erie Blvd. I LOVE the Black bean burger. They make the black bean burgers from scratch with rice, black beans and vegetables. The burger is then grilled and topped with lettuce, tomato, and low-fat ranch. A side of steamed broccoli comes with it as well. They also make their salsa from scratch. They chop all the vegetables almost to the point of puree so every bite has the perfect blend of ingredients. They also cook the tortilla chips as needed. The only down side to that is there is sometimes huge chunks of salt stuck to the chips, so you'll unexpectedly end up with a mouthful of salt. As far as other vegetarian items go, there is a lot of "can you hold the...". The items are as follows:

Black bean burger - $6.99+tax
Toasted chips and salsa (bottomless) - $2.99
Artichoke dip
cheese fries, hold the bacon
nachos, hold the queso
french fries
cinnamon apples
vegetable of the day
steamed broccoli
mashed potatoes, hold the gravy
side salad
There are also a number of salad entrees that you could ask to hold the meat (but I hate doing that)
