Chili's – My wife and I ordered the fajita trio at your Ankeny Iowa store on 11/18/2023. Everything was very good for the exception of the rice. When I say it was disgusting, I mean it was VERY bad. It literally smelled and tasted like cigarettes. Like someone literally ashed their cigarette in the rice.
