Chelas Mexican Kitchen

Thrilled to have Chelas in Laguna beach. Not pretentious, just very good quality and great atmosphere. My destination for Taco Tuesday.

Discovered this little gem right down the street from our condo. We've now gone back three times and have not been disappointed. The carnitas are to die for - perfectly crispy and flavorful. The breakfast burrito is incredible as well. They have a really nice upstairs deck to eat and watch PCH roll by.

Update to original post.....5 months later, it's time to repost.....nothing has changed, food quality, excellent, friendly service, love the second floor seating....keep up the good work!

Always skeptical of new places, no reason to be here, food, outstanding, service, outstanding......it's definitely going into one of my go to locations....fresh, delicious, great presentations, very, very good...had taquitos, La Gringa tacos with carnitas, and fried chicken tacos, salsas are excellent, can't say enough.

We ordered Chilaquilas $17.99 and Fajita Bowl $14.99. The menu clearly states they each come with a Side of Chips and Salsa. Later, when we asked for the chips, we were told they don't come with it. That the Chilaquilas is made with chips.

Update: Karla V., I greatly appreciate the apology and offer to make it right. Unfortunately, we don't live in the area, but I've amended my overall rating.

Definitely recommend this place. The upstairs seating was very nice. I can definitely recommend the chicken fajita bowl, but ever enjoyed their meal. The serving sizes are plentiful!

Really delicious fish tacos, freshly prepared. The upstairs area has such a wonderful view of the ocean as well. This is the perfect Southern California setting. A Corona paired with these fish tacos makes for the perfect meal on the beach.

Found it by accident one day, came to LAGUNA for Concert in the park 2 months ago.

I’ve been three different times now and it’s never disappointed. It’s excellent the quality of food the portions the price excellent flavors!

Service is fabulous Art. I believe he’s the manager. He’s amazing. I brought one of my clients this visit. the last two was with friends. This third visit has been an amazing experience I tried different things on the menu this time delicious!!

Chicken, fajita salad, and ribeye burrito wow!!

Beautiful ocean view seating upstairs if you’re visiting Laguna Beach, you do not want to miss this Gem of a Mexican restaurant. They do have other locations family on though to Moore and San Clemente however, again if you’re visiting Laguna, do not miss this one.

Breakfast at Chelas Mexican Kitchen across the beach. My wife and I tried the Chelas MVP Burrito and the Chorizo Burrito both were delicious! Great service, tasty sauces, and a cool vibe with upstairs and downstairs seating. Highly recommend!

Food was delicious. Atmosphere was great on the top 2nd story seating area which had a nice view of the skyline and city hustles. Service was top notch. If you want delicious food with a great view and relaxing atmosphere - go here
