" Had an overall nice experience at Chela’s the other night! My friends and I dove into a variety of dishes including tacos and quesadillas. The flavors were good, but we felt a little more seasoning could elevate the overall experience. The ambiance was casual and welcoming, making it a nice spot for hangouts. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to say, Chela's is one of my new favorites! I order here every couple of weeks, and while I sometimes have issues with the service, the food usually never disappoints. The birria tacos are a must-try! So flavorful and filling. I’ve also had their tamales and they're top-notch. Even decent vegetarian options! " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely love Chela’s! It is my regular go-to when I’m in the mood for good tacos. The atmosphere is so welcoming, making it a fantastic place for meals with friends or family. I specifically recommend the veggie tacos—they're refreshing and packed with flavor! " (*Curated Review*)

" Every time I come here, I get the same thing—the tamales and elote! They are always delicious! The staff are welcoming, and the pace of service is spot on. I love that there’s outdoor seating too! Overall, just a fantastic dining experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Chela's last weekend and was thoroughly impressed! The tacos I ordered were fresh, bursting with flavor, and the homemade salsas took everything to another level. The ambiance was fun, and the staff was incredibly helpful. I can’t wait to go back and try their breakfast burritos! " (*Curated Review*)

" Really cute little spot! The tacos were good, a little on the small side but still packed with flavor. I was pleasantly surprised by the variety of salsas available for self-served. The atmosphere is friendly, which makes this place feel welcoming. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a rough experience ordering takeout. They mixed up my order completely, which was disappointing. When I finally received the right food, I enjoyed the flavors of the tamales but felt the tacos were lacking. I might try dining in next time since I've heard good things! " (*Curated Review*)
