Chili’s has declared war on fast food with the latest addition to its 3ForMe dining deal.

The combo offers customers a choice of entrée, bottomless appetizer and endless soda refills for $10.99.

On Monday, Chili’s upped the ante by adding a new burger.

Customers can now enjoy a Big Smasher and fries as part of the $10.99 deal.

The new burger contains twice the meat of a McDonald’s Big Mac and is topped with Thousand Island sauce, chopped red onion, lettuce, pickles and American cheese.

As for the bottomless appetizer, diners can choose from unlimited chips and salsa, soup or house/Caesar salad.

Chili’s reckons the $10.99 deal offers better value for money than fast food.

“Do you think Chili’s is better than fast food?” wrote in the X along with the ad.

“Chili’s is much tastier and more fun!” wrote one fan.

“It actually costs less to eat at Chili’s than at most fast food restaurants, and I get to see and talk to a real human being.”

Another agreed: “Chilis is better than fast food because the quality of the food is tastier!”

“Absolutely!” a third joined the conversation.

“Best food, best portion size, best price.”

A big difference between Chili’s and fast food is that Chili’s serves alcoholic beverages.

In fact, customers can upgrade their soda to a margarita for just $3.49 with the 3ForMe deal.
