The food was delicious and the service was great. We were the first guests to arrive that day at noon and the music was very loud given the restaurant was empty other than us. That was the only downside.

We came in tonight for my sister’s birthday. We actually came here for the first time a year ago for her last birthday and have been back so many times since! The food is on point and it is super consistent; Every visit it tastes exactly right. Guacamole, Arabic tacos, brisket tacos, fish tacos, birria, and the torta were the stars of the show! And always are. I know that’s a lot, but it’s true. They’re always delicious. Their special marg & every other drink was delicious too, never too sweet, always balanced. Thanks again, Chela! We’ll be back for sure.
