Run here, to eat ASAP, you won’t be disappointed.
We went here for my friend’s birthday and coincidentally it was restaurant week. We initially thought of ordering from the regular menu, and we did order a couple things from there but then we decided to give the restaurant week menu a try – we didn’t regret it!
Our waitress was wonderful, the manager was so attentive and the atmosphere was great, it was one of the coldest nights in NYC so it was a little nippy, whenever the door opened (a nice thick curtain by the door might really help with that). That is literally the only complaint that we had, which wasn’t even their fault really because we haven’t had such cold winters in years.
The margaritas were perfect!!
The corn on the cob is truly the best that I’ve had. I used to love getting a pick up order of corn on the cob from Cafe Habana, that will not be happening again. Chela is my go to spot for the Elote from now on!!!
The New shrimp tacos with grilled shrimp were the bomb, all the ingredients complemented each other perfectly.
The meat tacos from the restaurant week menu (not sure what they are on the regular menu) were finger licking good!
The octopus appetizer from restaurant week had a nice kick to it, it refreshed your palette nicely.
The Chela ribs need to be in my belly on a monthly basis!
The Suiza enchiladas were so yummy and sauce was so creamy and on point!
Tres leches is my jam and so happy they had it on the restaurant week menu!
The tamarind Flan was delicious.
All the portions were very generous. We left completely stuffed and extremely satisfied. We plan to go back here to try everything on the menu and then keep on coming back to enjoy all the things that we loved best.
I highly recommend this restaurant for any occasion, big or small, or no reason at all. Come here if you want good food.
They have gluten free and vegetarian options and a kids menu!

Had Chela for lunch today (it was a company lunch) and it was really good. I got the enchiladas mole poblano with brisket and everything was super flavorful.
The mole sauce was rich and had a lot of depth without being too sweet or too heavy. The brisket was tender and paired really well with the sauce. The portion was filling and it definitely tasted like a solid, well-made meal (not just “okay takeout”).
Even though it was packed up for lunch, it still held up really well and tasted great. I’d definitely order this again and I want to come back to try more things on the menu.

Carnitas are a must on Sunday, amazing food every-time. I lost count how many times we’ve been to Chela, always superb service. It’s a gem, the flavors are thoughtfully crafted.

Such a great meal. The staff were wonderful. Brett, the manager went above and beyond to help us make sure we ordered all the right things. I will definitely be coming back to dine here, the next time I’m in Lancaster.

Held a surprise congratulations brunch for my best friend, and the staff at Chela were FANTASTIC. Every person was super cheery, helpful, excited for us, and accommodating. We all got different drinks and we ended up passing our drinks around the table because everyone kept saying “This is so good, you have to try this!” Our dishes were phenomenal and really generously portioned.
Staff brought us complimentary sparkling wine to toast my friend, which was so kind and so fun. (They also brought complimentary triceratops to the kids at a nearby table, so this type of attentive generosity applies to all types of customers!)
Perhaps most importantly: they let us just hang out for a while, sipping our drinks and catching up and laughing, which for Saturday brunch in Brooklyn feels like the height of generosity.
11/10 for Chela, and immense gratitude from me.

I came here for a quick bite and was hesitant since it’s tough to find good Mexican food in NYC. Chela is pretty good! Great service, great decor (they went all out for Christmas lol), and overall decent prices as well. I definitely recommend them.

Hidden gem of Park Slope for authentic Mexican cuisine, not to mention the best margaritas in the neighborhood. Carlos / Esteban are awesome bartenders. Love the open kitchen; these chefs know what they are doing. The vibe is great whether you are with a group for dinner, or at the bar for happy hour. Definitely check this place out if you haven’t been!

This review is about a month delayed, but I had brunch here at the bar with a couple of girlfriends and was truly blown away by the attentiveness of the staff. The third member of our party arrived much later — after my friend and I had already begun eating our meals (possibly even after we’d already finished, or were near finished…) We ordered for her at the same time we ordered our food, though, and without even having to ask or say anything, the staff carefully waited and watched for her to arrive so that they could promptly serve her her meal once she was seated. They had clearly been keeping it warm for her in the kitchen. I ordered the vegan version of their Gorditas De Hongos, which was phenomenal. (FYI this is only an appetizer; Chela does currently offer one vegan brunch entree option, though: the Vegetarian Enchiladas, sans dairy.) My non-vegan friends, both of whom are Mexican, loved their dishes as well. We stayed for a couple of drinks after our meal, so ended up being there for a good while — at least a couple of hours. Every single one of the bartenders and waitstaff who served us and who we otherwise interacted with were abundantly kind/warm, friendly, and professional. I’d been here just once before this, earlier this year, that time just for drinks, but had a great experience then, too. The margaritas are super tasty, and there’s lots of flavors to choose from. 10/10 recommend Chela for any occasion and any time of day! Can just about guarantee you will be well taken care of and have a great time. Salud 🙂
