We had an amazing experience at Cheles! We ate on a Monday night and our food was delicious and the staff was so kind! We were a little caught off guard by the Monday night DJ, whose tracks were great but did make it hard to have a conversation by the end of the night! We would definitely go back though!

Such satisfying food, it makes you feel cared for and relaxed. It was loud but in part because there was a large party of 20’s who were having a wonderful group dinner. We could talk at our table. But the food was terrific.
