House Salad vs. Quesadilla Explosion Salad
The Side House Salad is Chili’s smallest, simplest salad option — a basic mixed-greens side, priced at $5.89–$6.89 across the three restaurants checked. It’s also sold bundled with a cup of soup as the Soup & House Salad combo, at $10.89–$11.49 depending on restaurant, which is the better value if you want both.
The Quesadilla Explosion Salad is the opposite end of the category — a full entrée-sized salad topped with grilled or Crispers® chicken, cheese, crispy tortilla strips and dressing, running $16.29–$18.39 depending on chicken style and restaurant. It’s one of the two items this Chili’s Salads Menu Prices guide spotlights because it consistently shows up among the higher-demand salad searches for this menu, alongside the standalone House Salad at the opposite price point.
Between the two, the Santa Fe Salad and its Crispers® version sit in between on price ($16.29–$18.39) and swap the tortilla-strip/quesadilla build for a Southwestern-style topping instead — worth considering if you want something entrée-sized but different from the Quesadilla Explosion build.

Our Methodology
Prices and calories in this Chili’s Salads Menu Prices guide were captured directly from each restaurant’s live official online-ordering menu at chilis.com on 26 Aug 2026, with every category fully expanded, at the same three anchor restaurants used across this cluster: Chili’s Fossil Creek (Fort Worth, TX), Chili’s I Drive (Orlando, FL) and Chili’s Hamilton Quarters (Columbus, OH).
Exact store-level prices were retained rather than averaged. Where an item wasn’t captured at a given store, that cell is marked “Not offered at this store” and excluded from the item’s price range.
