Date night at Chela & Garnacha! Ordered the chicken burrito and the gf got the mole enchiladas and it was delicious! Margaritas were good! Staff was friendly and attentive ensuring we had our drinks replenished and was clearing out our table with the finished dishes. The restaurant was cozy with dim lights and felt intimate. Definitely a first date spot and will come back for sure! Highly recommend it! Will try the quesadillas next!

This restaurant has a really nice, mellow vibe. \nThe food was delicious, great value for money.\n\nOne in our party was not really a big taco fan and loved the food so much he ordered an extra taco! \n\nThe house special shrimp taco and the fried fish taco were both great but the standout was the veggie taco. The mushroom taco was good, but very mushroomy. Definitely splurge that extra dollar for grilled jalapenos on the side, it's worth it!\n\nStaff was really very friendly...

My partner has been coming here for atleast a decade and it remains his favorite taco spot. He brought me here and I am equally in love! The service is top tier and the chef is always up for a challenge! I have had multiple experiences with ordering something off the menu and the chef has always come through with something delicious! Highly recommend this spot and the shrimp tacos are the best I have ever had.
