This is a great spot to enjoy Mexican fusion cuisine during lunch time. On weekdays, they offer an amazing lunch special for $14. You can select two dish from their lunch special menu: -1 chicken OR cheese enchilada -1 chicken flautas topped with mango salsa (very mild) -salad -1 taco (chicken, steak, carnita or wild mushroom) This will come with a side of beans and rice. I ordered their chicken flautas and chicken enchilada. I honestly couldn't finish it so I had to take it home to finish. The value is amazing, especially during these inflated times. The staff is very attentive and welcoming. We were taken care from the moment we walked in, to the moment we left the door. Lively decor and a beautiful bar right in the center. Great to start a lovely date night read more

Updating my review since it's been a while. I love Cha Chas! They excel at everything, from food, to drinks to service, you name it and it's 5 stars. At our most recent visit, we tried the queso fundido appetizer and it was absolutely delicious. I also tried their limited time hibiscus margarita and it tasted so good. Our server was excellent and provided great service, and excellent recommendations, including the new margarita. Needless to say, we will be back here in the future. read more

So I decided to give this place a shot with my group of friends today 4/5/26 Easter Sunday. You may ask why such a low score. Well for starters it had nothing to with the staff. They did an exceptional job. 5 stars for them being able to accommodate a party of 6. The low score was strictly for the food. I personally was able to take advantage of the brunch special with the unlimited mimosas. My starter, I chose the green pozole which honestly wasn't bad but it wasn't good either. It honestly looked like a single pour from a large spoon in a big bowl. In all honestly, it was bland but still I ate it cuz I was hungry. My main entrée I chose the carnitas plate which came with rice and beans. Those carnitas were dryer than the Mojave desert. They also lacked any type of seasoning. Very disappointing. The rice and beans I mean were nothing special. The flour tortillas were good tho. At least I wasn't the only one experiencing this in my group. We all agreed the food was terrible. Even the margarita my friend had was terrible. The best way I can describe the food here, is like eating Taco Bell and paying triple the price. Awful! Save yourself the money and go elsewhere. read more

My wife and I split the 6 tacos for $34 and it was great! The short rib ones were my favorite. The service was fast and it was a super clean and fun environment. Beware of the margaritas because they are huge. read more

Came here for the first time on Wednesday and had their happy hour menu at the bar, it was good and they offer chips with 2 salsas! I'll be sure to stop by more to experience their dining/dinner service, as i loved the enchiladas. I will say, my flautas were not crispy so I didn't enjoy them as much, but still really excited to come here again! A lot of people were there, clean and tidy, kind staff. read more

Had such a great experience the last week, so we decided to go back again. We definitely were not disappointed as the both the service and food were great. Both our servers and even the managers were very attentive checking on us through out the night. Decided to try some other dishes like the chicken mole and seafood enchiladas that were great. We were able to try the other deserts but I still feel the tres leche cake is still the best. Hint: on the weekends the restaurants here get pretty busy so I highly recommend making reservations. read more

Came here to try the OC Restaurant Week special and loved it! The vibe is upbeat, but not chaotic. The service was great from the time we walked in until we left. Everyone was very attentive and friendly. My friend and I tried the potato taquitos to start - they were perfectly crunchy and flavorful. For mains we had the carnitas which were good and not dry, as well as the crab and shrimp enchilas. Those were my favorite! Took the desserts to go, but I did enjoy the flan when I finally got around to it! Oh, we also ordered drinks from the regular menu and enjoyed those as well. I would definitely come back and recommend this place. read more

Cha Cha's is a favorite when choosing a fancier restaurant for happy hour or dinner. The decor adds energy and was thoughtfully selected. The service is excellent and each person we encountered was friendly and welcoming. They truly care about the customer experience and welcome feedback. It feels like they have the right amount of menu options and everything we ordered was well made and delicious! I've been here a few times and each time has been a great time. read more

This is our second visit to Cha Cha's Latin Kitchen and I must say I was happy we came back. The ambiance is happy and vibrant. The service is outstanding, from check-in to our server, plus I did see the manager doing rounds greeting patrons. The food is fantastic, the guacamole was fresh with a delightful twist because it had cheese, I think the cheese added a wonderful taste. For lunch I had the fresh fish with zucchini it was DELICIOUS. We will definitely return! read more

First time here and it was awesome. Definitely returning here. The drinks the food the service the atmosphere were all outstanding.

I got super lit here on cinco de Mayo. I believe I spent like $200 on alcohol alone that night . I came back here for the lunch special and it did not disappoint. Honestly one of the best bangs for your buck around this area. The chicken flauntas were one of the best I've had in a long time. The service and overall ambiance of this place is also very fun as I see people day drinking here. Would definitely come back if I'm around the area. read more

Came back for HH on a Sunday. We sat at the bar & service was friendly & attentive. This time, I tried their chicken & white fish taco. Both tasted homemade & healthy. Husband ordered the quesadillas & shrimp ceviche. Shrimp ceviche was fresh & flavorful. I always enjoy the complimentary tortilla chips which is a nice addition to the meal. Their menu is extensive & I'll be back again to try other items on the menu. HH price was great! read more

Service: 5/5. Shoutout to our amazing server Jazy who was attentive, friendly, and on it from start to finish. MANILA CLAMS: 5/5. Insane. Fresh. Addictive. Get it. CARNITAS: 5/5. So good. Like, "I see how they survived Covid" levels of good. We literally got a second order of carnitas to go for someone who couldn't make it to dinner. MUSHROOM TACOS: 5/5. The mushroom were packed full of umami flavor. CARNE ASADA TACOS: 4/5. Good flavor but the texture was a little tough. Drinks were solid all around. Good energy, good food, and service that made the night. read more

Chacha's Mexican Restaurant is so good. I got the salmon plate and it was amazing cooked perfectly and full of flavor. Just a heads up though, it does have a slight sweetness to it, so if you're not into sweet-ish flavors it might surprise you. Personally, I loved it because it was different from the usual and really well done. Definitely coming back to try more items on the menu. The customer service is good too. FYI parking is accross the street towards the very end make a right before the stop sign and park on the parking structure. It's free. read more

My friend and I ended up stopping for dinner here on our way home from LA. We really didn't expect much, but to our surprise it was pretty good. The service was excellent. The drinks are freaking delicious. I got the cucumber margarita and my friend got the watermelon, they were refreshing and mixed well. I had the enchiladas trio and she had the carne asada tacos. Both plates were yummy, except I didn't care for the chicken enchilada. Just wasn't for me. The crab and cheese one though, omg. Plus the price point is surprisingly decent which is always a win especially in this economy. Cha Cha's is going to be in my regular rotation of restaurants now. Thank you! read more

Cha Cha's Latin Kitchen - Lemon drops with sugar rim - Bars Near Me - Brea, California

It's okay, I mean that's the easiest way to sum it up. The food is nothing special or unique, the flavors are pretty basic and standard, there wasn't anything mind blowing about it. The portion sizes for the tacos are good, which was the biggest bonus. My girlfriend didn't enjoy how strong her drink was and noted that it was a bit much. And for 25$ I think she was expecting more The inside is pretty dated as far as looks go, it's a big place with plenty of seating both indoor and out. The service was average, again nothing special or anything. If you want basic overpriced "latin" food then you'll love it. If you're looking for GOOD food, might as well skip it and look for something else especially for the price and how the quality was below average. read more

We came on a Thursday afternoon during lunch and it wasn't crowded. Ordered the chicken tostada salad, torta with steak, shrimp ceviche salad, and the shrimp with calamari. My husband had the spicy guava margarita which he seemed to enjoy. I had a few sips and it was definitely flavorful. The shrimp and calamari were cooked nicely and came with two sauces. The crema is what I reached for the most. The shrimp ceviche salad was a little overwhelming as it was super acidic (which is funny because ceviche, lol) but it was originally my husbands order and he couldn't finish it. The chicken tostada was good but it could be better. The dressing was a little bland. The "tostada" is basically a fried tortilla hidden underneath the salad. It was just basic. The torta was also just okay. Nothing too memorable. Enjoyed the chips and salsa though. The restaurant itself is aesthetically pleasing and clean. The service was decent. The waitress would check on us but I would've appreciated a smile or friendliness. read more

My boyfriend and I both got the carne asada entree. We came on a monday and we didn't know they had Date Night monday's with buy one get one 50% off entrees so we thought that was perfect. The steak was cooked to the perfect temperature. I'm huge on steaks so I love when it's cooked perfectly to the tee. I tend to like mine more rare. The chimichurri was bursting with flavor and the potatoes were amazing. Service was also really quick. Definitely would come back here to try everything else. read more

Hot inside. Was the air conditioning even on? I saw fans blowing hot air around......... The heat gave me a headache. It was so warm inside the restaurant. I feel really bad for the people drinking alcohol. Very unpleasant. The food was alright. I like the fresh guacamole and chips. The guacamole had good flavor. I ordered the cheese enchiladas with green sauce. It was super hot when she brought it to the table. The cheese enchiladas were stuffed with cheese. That was good. It tasted like Oaxaca cheese though, not my favorite. I prefer mozzarella or cheddar. Rice and beans were good. My husband ordered the empanadas. He said they were just "okay." He wouldn't order those again. He also got the brunch special for $30. It came with pozole Verde and asada with an egg. He didn't care for the pozole but liked the carne asada. Overall, just alright. Not enough to make me come back anytime soon. read more

Large and spacious restaurant. We arrived at 1 pm on a Thursday. We were given a choice of patio or inside seating. We were told that if we sat inside, we can choose from the Happy Hour menu. If we choose to sit outside, we could not do so. Naturally, we chose to sit inside. We were immediately served fried tortillas and two kinds of salsa. The tortillas were fresh and crispy and the salsas (green and red) paired it perfectly. I ordered the shrimp and crab enchilada plate and my friend ordered three tacos (carnitas, shrimp and beef) from the Happy Hour menu. For some reason, the server misheard me and thought I ordered a shrimp taco and one crab enchilada. So, when my order arrived, I told him that I was supposed to get two pieces of shrimp and crab enchilada instead of one. Unfortunately, my friend already ate the shrimp taco, thinking it was her order. In any case, they brought her three tacos and my extra crab enchilada. They took out the shrimp taco from the bill. The enchilada was packed with crab. It was delicious! My friend really liked her tacos. We were both happy campers. I was so looking forward to this meal and it did not disappoint. Will definitely be back. read more

Had a great Friday night dinner at Cha Cha -Brea with friends. The place is pretty busy and loud but the service was fast. We were seated in less than 10 mins with a reservation for a party of 6. Our server is so nice. She gave recommendations and check on us regularly. Ordered carne asada, shrimp/crab enchiladas and it taste really good. The watermelon mocktail drink is so refreshing. For dessert we tried the Tres Leches cake with coconut and their Cha Cha flan. Love that the desserts are not to sweet and still hit the spot. Overall it was a great dining experience. Will definitely be back to try the rest of the menu. read more

Eh. It's LOUD at night. I was yelling at my mom across the table during our entire meal. Servers were nice. Parking was easy. Food was weird and not great. I love goat cheese and a short rib taco with goat cheese sounded like a great idea-it wasn't. Too messy. Everything was too spicy for my mom. She didn't eat much of her meal. The only thing I liked was the table guac. It was just fine. Won't be back. read more

Returned for Friday night happy hour and loved it! The bar has a great patio where happy hour pricing applies. We ordered flautas, queso fundido with chorizo, tacos, and of course, margaritas. The flautas were my favorite--crispy outside, soft inside, and packed with flavor. The queso fundido was a little greasy from the chorizo but still tasty. Tacos were just okay. Margaritas were spot-on--we had two rounds! For dessert, we shared churros with raspberry sauce, the perfect sweet ending. Fun Friday night vibes and super-friendly staff! read more

Met up friend a friend for dinner and drinks on a Wednesday night at Cha Cha's. When we arrived for our 7:30pm reservation, we were promptly seated in the outdoor patio. Our server came to introduce herself shortly after. After looking at the menu, we put our drink orders in. Word of caution, drinks have a generous pour! It was a one and done kind of night. Chips and salsa were brought out, and it took all the power I have to not go through the entire basket before ordering my dinner! Food: I ordered the chicken enchiladas (50% off!) with a side of sour cream (additional $3.50!!). Chicken was plentiful and everything was really good. We decided to end the night with a tres leches dessert. It was ok. Overall, a positive experience at Cha Cha's and I would definitely visit again! read more
