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.

Came here for lunch after an afternoon in Ann Arbor…read more We walked in and noticed it was set up similarly to a Chipotle/Qdoba with toppings, proteins etc. --I will note all food is cooked to order (our fries were dropped in to cook as we placed our order). The food was good, fresh and flavorful. The portions were large and the prices are reasonable. There is plenty of indoor and outdoor seating in the restaurant.

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 chips were delicious, the pico de gallo was fresh and flavorful, and both the green and red sauces were excellent. 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 would have liked more heat, but my companoon said the red was too spicy and the verde was just right. they have el yucateco on hand if you want to kick it up a notch. 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. Almost exactly what I make for myself at home (I add a bit more black pepper). Give this joint a try, I doubt you will be disappointed.

Service was fine, but this place is so bad, it deserves negative stars…read more The burrito was like rubber. Literally tasted like a tire. There was nothing actually in it, just dry meat. 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. Don't ever take anyone you love to this place.
