Tex-Mex food lovers in the Leander and Georgetown area may soon rejoice as a project registration with the Texas Department of Licensing and Regulation shows a new Chuy's location slated for the area.

What we know

The new location is slated to come to land near the Bar W Marketplace shopping center, per the filing. Construction on the building is expected to begin in December and last until July.

On the menu

The Chuy's menu features a mix of enchiladas, tacos and burritos as well as appetizers, specialty sauces and margaritas.

What else?

Founded in Austin in 1982, Chuy’s restaurants were acquired by Orlando-based Darden Restaurants in the summer of 2024. Darden’s portfolio includes brands such as Olive Garden and LongHorn Steakhouse.

There are 10 existing Austin-area Chuy's locations, including ones in Round Rock and Cedar Park.
