Friday April 26th, 2024 Stopped in to Celia's to grab a to go order after work, approximately 4pm. I ordered 3 carne asada burritos with guacamole and chips with salsa. I unwrapped a burrito, it was very small, mostly all tortilla, very little meat and the guacamole was next to nonexistent! I opened the bag of chips and they were stale. Celia's food has been on the decline for many years now. I don't eat there often as such; I thought I would give it another try, that was a mistake. Sadly, I will never return there again.

Passing through El Centro on way to San Diego craving a good breakfast. Celia's hit the spot. Nice selection of breakfast entrees. Hubby had the huevos rancheros, which he said was come back good. I had one chile relleno with a side of rice. Nicely breaded with just right amount of cheese and sauce. Definitely will come back for the food, attentive service and cute atmosphere.

One of my favorites. Their Sopes are amazing and the service is great.
Hubby and I had a wonderful breakfast here. We have odd food intolerances (gf, night shade free and vegetarian) and easily found options on the menu. We love supporting family businesses and quirky places and Cecilia's ticks those boxes.Cecilia, who started the business with her husband in 1994 is still running the restaurant, and her, along with her twin sister and cousin gave us great service and conversation.
