“Stopped in from out of town for lunch yesterday. I got the parrillada fajitas it was seasoned great and was delicious. Quite pleased with it. My buddy order the flautas and it looked good too. The garden salsa bought out with the chips was good, but our waiter brought us some chilli taqueria style salsa out as well. All 3 were tasty. If im near lufkin Hudson area again I'd go out of my way to stop in for lunch again.“

La Cocina de Chela Mexican •
919 Ellis Ave, Lufkin

“I’d been hearing great things about this spot for a while—how delicious their food is, how it tastes just like home. But working full-time made it tough to catch them during their open hours. Finally, I had a chance to stop by. When I walked in, I was the only customer at the time. The place was quiet, simple, and warm. I ordered the customer favorite—chilaquiles rojos—and waited with curiosity and high hopes. The moment that first bite hit my tongue, I was overwhelmed. A knot formed in my throat and my eyes filled with tears. It wasn’t just good—it was familiar. It tasted like love, like memory. It tasted like my Welita’s cooking. For a moment, time slowed down. I wasn’t just eating—I was remembering her, feeling her warmth and presence in that plate. That’s the power of food made with intention. This place isn’t just serving meals—they’re serving moments. I’ll definitely be back. If you’re looking for something real, something that reminds you of your roots, do yourself a favor and try the chilaquiles rojos.“

“My husband and I ate dinner on a Saturday night at Chick-fil-A. We went inside because we had been traveling in the car all day and wanted to stretch our legs. Everyone in the restaurant welcomed us and were very friendly. We ordered chicken strips and the cobb salad. They were delicious. Also, we wanted to try their peach shake and were so glad that we did. It was wonderful. We wanted to give a shout out to an employee named Melinda, who was very professional and answered all our questions. We certainly enjoyed our time spent talking to her. Thank you for hiring and training such hardworking respectful employees!“

The food is not worth what you pay for it. I wil be finding another place for my weekend breakfast burritos.“

“Delicious! The best chicken fajita taco salad I've ever had. Fresh grilled chicken, perfectly fried salad shell (flakey and tender). Others in my group loved their tacos, refried beans, rice, the French fries, burger. Perfect sweet tea. Salsa was hotter than I'm used to, but it was still a great heat. The only complaint was the straight from the can ball park cheese dip. Would definitely eat here again. The outside may not look like much, but the inside is clean and inviting, and the staff is kind and pleasant. Thanks for a great lunch!“

The meat is tender and delicious, and the salsa is great. If you like heat, definitely get the red sauce. Prices were budget friendly. Both employees (owners?) were very kind and friendly. We'll be stopping back on our next trip through.“

“Normally I don't rate chain restaurants 5 stars as a rule, unless I found some particularly good crawfish etouffee. But I'm trying to adhere to a vegan or very vegan-adjacent diet lately and it turns out that if you're in Lufkin Taco Bell is pretty much your only Vegetarian/Vegan-adjacent option. To that end, once you strip out the cheese, sour cream and meat it's actually pretty decent, dare I say, good, food. This location is convenient when shopping in the area there and is generally pretty clean. My service rating needs a grain of salt, I use the kiosk to order so good service has a pretty low bar.“

It was a 2 person big back order too! By far the fastest and best tasting Taco Bell I have ever had! Try this Taco Bell before these guys get promoted to CEO!“
