Prices have risen but menu (the in house hard copy version) not updated so you don’t know that until you get your bill. Mentioned it to waitress and she just said “ya, the prices are different”. UM….that’s false advertising. 4 of us went in bc crowded and good reviews but the food was underwhelming. Just thought you all should know. However it’s a great location near the beach and we were seated right away despite it being a busy Friday night.

New to the neighborhood and walked by and saw it was taco Tuesday! Had a lovely time, will be back soon to try the rest of the menu!

We recently hosted an 80th birthday celebration here for my mother in law and everything was absolutely wonderful! The staff was incredibly friendly, professional, and attentive throughout the entire event — they really went above and beyond to make sure everything ran smoothly.
The food and drinks were excellent — we got so many compliments from our guests about how delicious everything was. The atmosphere was perfect for a special occasion, and the service made it feel effortless from start to finish.
We couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Thank you to the entire team for helping make this milestone celebration so memorable! We’d definitely book another event here again.

So the chilaquiles are fire. They serve them on weeekends and go hella dummy.
Now the street tacos are a no.

Celia's has always been good to us and the food is outstanding. And you need to know: 1. We are local, 2. We are native Californians, 3. With Mexican roots, 4. And we have high standards of service. And Celia's checks every box.
Our experience with Celia's is: If you don't like the food, you don't know what good Mexican food is; if you don't like the service, you didn't ask for help.

The wait at Outerlands next door was an hour long... So my wife and I popped into Celia's for brunch and immediately got a table. I was pleasantly surprised at the great food, warm service, and comfy booths.
I've walked by the place for years and never ventured in. It's definitely worth checking out. The giant frosted michilada glass was on point, the chips and salsa were quick and tasy, and the Giants game was on too!
An idea for the management: You might consider putting a framed review with pictures of the inside of your restaurant out front by the door. From the outside of the restaurant, you would never know how nice and relaxing it is inside.

You should try their street taco, which was amazing. Their margarita was also gorgeous. Try their mezcal directly from Mexico.

First time at this location and it was awesome the food was excellent very friendly staff. I would recommend.
Very dissatisfied for my first time. Sonia seems new and unknowledgeable of taking over the phone orders properly. And the manager wasn't trying to accommodate one of Sonia's mistake until I had to ask to speak to him about it .I ordered a super burrito over the phone And nowhere in my life have I been served a wet burrito when I ask for a burrito with everything. 30$ for something I didn't want . Very sad about my first visit. Without the wet I wouldn't be writing review. Hangry customer. Picture is after I tried to salvage the burrito.

The food is GOOD, but the place was really busy and they accidentally gave me the wrong thing. I hope whoever got my tacos likes them.

Super friendly and timely service, good Mexican food.

I was very disappointed in the tacos. Very little meat, very little cheese. Small amounts of beans. They seem to spread the beans to make it look like so much more on the plate. Not worth the almost $17.00 change. Server was amazing, she definitely got a good tip from our table.
