Chili’s Grill & Bar is a US Tex-Mex casual-dining chain with around 1,100 locations, founded in 1975 in Dallas Texas and now part of Brinker International (which also owns Maggiano’s Little Italy), known for the 3 for Me menu, the Triple Dipper appetizer, the Margarita of the Month, and the Baby Back Ribs cultural staple.

The questions readers actually ask: what time does Chili’s open today, when does the kitchen close, is the restaurant open on Thanksgiving, Christmas, or Easter, and what is the 3 for Me menu price.

One thing to know: most Chili’s locations close at 11:00 PM Sunday through Thursday and at midnight Friday and Saturday, with the kitchen taking last orders 30 to 60 minutes before close. Christmas Day and Thanksgiving Day are the two chain-wide closures (matching sibling brand Applebee’s on Christmas, and matching Darden Restaurants peer Olive Garden on both holidays), while Easter Sunday runs regular 11:00 AM to 11:00 PM hours.
