    Dinner & house margarita
    PJ W.

    I'm from California where there's no end to the magnitude of Mexican food; let me say this restaurant is by far the most delicious food I've ever eaten & I've been eating it for 65 years!...from the creamy delicious refried beans, delicioso Salvadoran style rice like I've never eaten, a roasted poblano chile stuffed with, cheese & a cheese enchilada topped with a spicy tomatillo sauce- authentically prepared lime margaritas were hand shaken with the perfect combination of sweet & sour & a finish of tequila warming the throat as it passed down my gullet. Yum!!! I can't say enough about the food & margaritas...yes, more than one Don't let the exterior of this little gem keep you away, you'll miss the best food you'll ever eat!

    This is a great restaurant that specializes in South American cuisine to include Mexican, Peruvian, and Nicaraguan cuisines. The service was good and food was excellent. I really enjoyed the Plantains and Cerdo Adobado (marinated pork). I highly recommend this restaurant.

    So happy to have found a place with delicious & authentic Mexican food! Everything we've order has been great! I recommend the papusas! Jalapeño & cheese papusas are the best!

    Don't let the exterior fool you! We almost didn't go in but we're really glad we did. Our meal was a fiesta of bold flavors and interesting textures including homemade queso (really good). We also had a dynamite mango margarita. The waitstaff will get a well deserved generous tip thanks to their kind attentiveness. We felt like we actually experienced their culture right here in Arkansas!

    First time here in Wednesday. Very good and different food experience compared to your generic Tex…read moremex. Will definitely try this place again and will try their breakfast as it looks just like the healthy tasty plates we had in Costa Rica on vaca. Good place you should try for sure!

    La Chele 2. Interesting name for a restaurant. For me, it is…read morehard to accurately evaluate ethnic foods if you don't know what the authentic taste, composition or presentation should be. Most of the Central American food that I have had is very lightly seasoned. The foods rely almost solely on the flavors of the vegetables, fruits and meats in the dish with very limited strong spices such as the chili peppers and other spices that stand out in Mexican food. As for La Chele 2. The food is made with fresh ingredients, prepared when you order it. The Arroz con Pollo was as expected, unseasoned or very lightly seasoned. It was simply the flavors of the chicken, mushrooms, onions and cheese. The menu says the chicken was cooked in a special salsa. It may have been, if so, it was very mild. After a couple of bites, my wife who seldom eats hot sauce, was reaching for the bottle to flavor up her plate. The portions were large, the food hot and fresh! A few minutes after my wife was served, my Pollo Guisado (Salvadorean style chicken pot roast) arrived at the table. I immediately asked for the house made salsa picante. This dish (recommended by the owner) had chicken thighs and all the vegetables you would expect in a pot roast and a few more: carrots, onion, bell pepper, tomatoes, and potatoes. The house salsa picante really helped. The black beans were excellent! The sauce with the Pollo Guisado was very rich. Made that way from the fat rendered from the stewed chicken during cooking or possibly added oil or butter. The broth had a distinct yellow color with the noticeable taste of chicken flavoring added. A delicious, rich meal. Both meals were served with thick house made corn tortillas. I could have made a meal of the tortillas, black beans and the house salsa picante. La Chele 2 is located in a modest, repurposed suite in a declining strip mall just north of Hwy 412 on Mt Olive St. Order and pay at the counter. A mom-and-pop operation with limited service. They do a lot of take-out business. They have a fair-sized menu. If you are not a Salvadorian food expert, check the menu here before you go. It will save you some time! The Salvadorian cuisine will unlikely be my favorite As for La Chele 2, the freshness of the food and the large portions made it worth trying. I liked it.
