“La Zacatecana LLC serves some of the most flavorful tacos I’ve ever had. The tortillas taste fresh and homemade, and the meats are perfectly seasoned and tender. Each bite is full of authentic flavor, and the salsas give just the right amount of heat. The service is fast and friendly, making it a great spot for a quick bite or a casual meal. Definitely a place I’ll keep coming back to.“

“Very friendly service. Food is seasoned very well. Have been to other taco places in Indiana such as Hammond East Chicago. Gary Hobart this treats still rates number one. And the meat in the tacos Is more than enough. In fact, you can split one taco and take the other tortilla and make another taco in a tacos we will definitely keep going to them“

“Always friendly and food and drinks made fresh. Enjoy that owner came to ask how our meal was. Surprised that they offered a free taco lunch on my birthday.

“Excellent quality, authentic Mexican food. BUT… BRING BACK THE OLD SALSA 😭 Plenty of my friends and I agree the old salsa was 100% better.“

“Not sure if they're affiliated, but we had eaten at the Schererville location and liked it so we' thought we'd try the Merrillville location this time around. Really love the decor inside and out, as well as the atmosphere. We were greeted warmly by a gentleman who may have been a manager? Seated right away. This was at 5:30 on a Saturday and not very crowded so that was nice. Our waiter took a bit of time to greet us, but once we ordered our drinks they came fairly quickly. Not so much with the food. Mexican restaurants are notoriously quick when it comes to delivering your food right away so I was actually okay with having a bit of extra time before eating. That said everything was slow thereafter. I was out of water and never got a refill. Took a minute for the waiter check in after we finished our food. Needed boxes and again, after delivering therm, he was MIA. Finally got the check.

All of the employees were friendly and professional, I just felt like the waiter could have been a bit more attentive.

Food was good (nacho fajitas and tacos) and i would definitely consider returning.“

“I LOVE her beef soup, the broth is amazing. Dine-in, or carry out you're getting authentic Mexican food. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐“

“Amazing food! Biggest burritos I have ever seen!“

“I recently ordered pork & steak tacos for a party of 20, with rice beans and all the dressings ( onions, cilantro, tomatoe, lettuce) the family & friends raved & raved how delicious authentic Mexican food was! I've known Elios family ( my extended family) for years, they are the best tacos in NWI???“

“Tacos were delicious. Did carryout and was quick! Will be back!“

“Todo esta bueno y servicio rapido“

“Cuando entre no pense que me encantaria la comida. Pero es una de las mejores enchiladas de asada que eh comido, que hasta el plato limpie. No caen pesadas a tu estomago . Muy buena comida 🍲 Me encantaron!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️“

“I ordered the steak torta on my first visit and it was incredible fresh bread, tender steak, and a really balanced flavor all the way through. I went back the next week for the steak tacos, and they were just as impressive. The corn tortillas were cooked perfectly with that light crisp you want, and the steak was seasoned just right.

The red sauce has a good kick, so if you’re sensitive to heat you’ll feel it, but the flavor makes it totally worth it. Service was quick, prices were fair, and the food has been consistently excellent. I’ll definitely be going back to try more of the menu.“

“I've eaten her for a few years. The food is ALWAYS consistently good. Fresh toppings, perfectly seasoned meat , just an overall great experience as a customer. The employees greet you with a smile and are very courteous. I'll be returning as always.“

“Service and food were both fabulous.“

“Best Mexican food I've had in years“

“We found this place on our way to Raleigh, NC from Chicago. Stopped here after reading reviews online. TRUST THE REVIEWS that say this place is good...IT IS GOOD! We just moved to the Chicago area from South Texas, so we know good Mexican food and this place does not disappoint! If you are anywhere near Gary Indiana, you have to stop in to Chela's. It's not fancy at all, but is very clean and the prices are good. We had the Birria Tacos, chips and salsa and several different meat tacos. Then, on our way back from North Carolina, we stopped in again! My fiance thinks this is the best Mexican food outside of Texas. THAT'S saying something! We can't wait to go back!“

“Places like this will be over looked if you not from the area. This food is great and service is ok, but the hole in the wall spot will have people like me not returning because how are you investing into your business. Why not fix up the place when you are making good money. I don't like investing in places like this.. it looks a mess inside and out.“

“Went in for the first time last Sunday. Was pleasantly surprised with it all! Great food-they give you a lot for the money too! The prices were awesome. My mom was visiting from out of state and she absolutely loved it! We’ll definitely be returning very soon! ♥️“

“Olga and her team are amazing. Service is very quick and the team is super nice. The drinks are amazing as well as the food.“

“Great customer service and the food is amazing!“

“Por favor que está pasando aquí al parecer una chica nueva con un pantalón a media nacha por supuesto que se ve mal por los niños 👦 que traemos jamás había pasado esto aquí y mucho menos la atención pésima este es un restaurante familiar la comida exquisita no es Mexicana ojalá traigan al personal con calidad parece de otro país“

“Good Mexican food served fast. My go-to for Tortas and Tacos.“

“Food is always fantastic, hot and fast! The Karla tacos and Karla quesadilla are my favorite menu items. Have never been disappointed! Keep up the good work.“

“Great Service and food that is satisfying as well!“
