Awesome place, great tasting food, generous portions. Good attentive service. And the chips and salsa!!! Also, I love the atmosphere. I just went there for lunch 6-25-25, and realized I need to eat here more often. This place is a gem. Please try this place out and support a quality local business.

Happy Hours are rare these days and Celia’s still offers one 3-6pm weekdays. The Guava margarita was delicious not too sweet or strong. I will be back for the drinks the food was good just very carb heavy so you will get full on chips etc. the restaurant is quiet and chill but needs a facelift or some music playing.

Great food. Almost like a Mexican Dennys. Parking was good. Service was excellent. Friend said the place brought him comfort but proceeded to complain about the seats lol. Food was served very hot. I wonder if there's a back story. I enjoyed the special burrito.
Salsa was on point.
