This is my third visit in since they opened. I ordered the *fresh* guac small. It's not fresh. Creamy baby food avocado is not fresh. The salsa is a bit salty but good. The chicken tortilla soup - again salty, with chicken and the barest bit of roasted corn, topped with WAY too many tortilla strips. Especially when half of the strips were stale or hard as a rock. Do the cooks smoke? That would account for the saltiness. Also ordered a chile relleno à la carte. The breading was too thick but the chile was good. The cheese was a bit odd but fine. I didn't care for the green sauce on the side. I pulled off the tortilla strips, chile breading and did my best with what I had ordered. Just another visit to remind me why I don't come here. ‍

Chela's is so much more than it appears at first. The front is humble. When you enter, everything…read moreappears casual...so casual that we weren't sure what to do at first. Take a seat anywhere you like; we chose to sit at the bar. This is a well-equipped bar for such a casual setting: Dos Equis, Modelo, Bell's, and Sierra Rose hard cider. Waaaaay better than Chi-Chis (and any real Mexican restaurant I can think of, too). And, my wife ordered a margarita, and she loved it. Best of all, the price was very reasonable: $17 after tip for the margarita and a large Dos Equis. Food orders are placed at a separate counter, and they are ready quickly. A single fish taco is a good size, and only costs $4.75. The daily special is $10.29, and includes two tacos, rice, and beans, with a small up charge for the fish tacos. I feel like I've traveled back in time to the last century with these prices. The fish tacos are outstanding. The fish is freshly prepared, and not fried. You will want to get more than one to make it a meal, and the rice and beans in the combo are a nice complement. The rice could have used more seasoning, but this is easily corrected by mixing in some salsa. This is truly a wonderful find.

The shrimp taco was fantastic, and the beef taco was just as good. The corn tortillas seemed to be lightly fried, giving them a wonderful texture and authentic flavor.

The dining area is small, with seating for around 20 people, but that's part of the charm. It's a casual, no-frills little spot where the food is clearly the star. Everything we tried was delicious. Nothing fancy--just fresh, flavorful, really good Mexican food. We will definitely be back!

I really did not have high expectations for a Midwest Mexican restaurant, but here I stand, mostly…read morecorrected. Miny's is an Ann Arbor staple. A small taco shop in a nondescript strip mall, Miny's is turning out some seriously impressive and authentic tacos on par with places I love in Southern California. My friends and I swung by around dinnertime and while it was not crowded, there was a steady flow of customers and take-out orders. There is no dining area, but there are tables outside where one can sit and eat. I ordered 3 tacos: al pastor, cabeza, and Cameron, with spicy salsas on the side. The total was about ~$13. The first thing that stood out to me was the size. These were some hefty tacos, lovingly double-wrapped in pliable, warm, corn tortillas and neatly packaged for takeout. Salsa can be hit or miss but the salsas here were SO GOOD. Made in-house, they add the perfect moisture and flavor to each bite. Their green salsa has a mild, tingling kick, and tastes very rich and refreshing. The orange creamy salsa, however, stole the show. It is spicier than the green, and has a super addicting smokiness that enhances, but doesn't overpower, every bite. I was bright red and sweating but could not put this salsa down. The al pastor taco was my favorite. Sweet, soft, smoky pork with the crunch and freshness of onions and cilantro, drenched in the above salsas, simply divine! I wish it had come with pineapple for a pop of sweetness, but it was still a super good taco. I was thrilled to see that Miny's offered cabeza and lengua, as they are cuts of meat less familiar to the average American diner. I opted for cabeza and was greeted with a pile of soft, collagen-rich meat, bursting with juice and oil. The meat by itself is definitely a bit bland so the salsas did the heavy lifting in terms of flavor. The gooey-soft texture though, that was all due to the perfectly cooked meat. This was a pricier taco than the Al pastor, and there was definitely a bit less meat than in the Al pastor, but still a very good taco. The shrimp taco impressed me the least. The shrimp were unseasoned and looked to be boiled. While bouncy and tender cooked in this way, I prefer the char and juiciness of grilled shrimp in my tacos. In addition, I tend to expect my seafood tacos to have a slaw on them, versus the standard onions and cilantro. With the salsas, this taco was fine, but I would not order it another time. A very healthy but uninspired taco. Overall, for where it's located and what it is, Miny's does some amazing tacos, though I will probably skip the seafood ones next time. I will be DREAMING of that orange salsa, and now understand why on their menu, they sell it by the carton.

If I could not sell you on the tacos alone, I hope my praise of their guacamole can seal the deal. It was real, fresh, and tasty.

The place looks like they got their uncle to design the interior. Just terrible construction and worse painting. It is clean enough, but the lack of tables make it look like the former tables might have broken and not been replaced. I can forgive the terrible interior and the broken rusty tractor outside and bizarre fake horses at the empty trough. I admit it is slightly endearing. But the food is god awful terrible. Maybe it is what someone in the 1980s thought good Mexican food is like. In fact, most of the other customers were elderly so they have probably been coming here for a while.
