If there's an option to leave no stars I would have done that. Honestly do not waste your money I hate to say that their food was disgusting and a waste of money.I thought this place was going to be good especially when my dad was visiting from out of state. I've never visited this restaurant before and heard it was good but this was a few years ago. We paid more than $100 and the food that we got was so disgusting couldn't even call it Mexican food.I would have been better off just going to Taco Bell as the foodthere is better than the food that they served at Celia's.The chile relleno was disgusting and it wasn't even a chile pasilla, the cheese was just as disgusting overall my father and I were very disappointed. I ended up just cooking for my father and family and that's what I should have done in the first place because my Mexican food is way better than this restaurant.
A little disappointed. On the good side: service was great, the place was very clean, and the staff was very professional. BUT.... the food was just average with a very limited menu. The setting was very casual café style, not restaurant with no ambiance. And the margaritas were terrible....just pre-bottled semi-alcoholic drinks labeled "margarita." They were more just Fresca soda pops with a little agave flavoring (5% alcohol).
Love Celias.... best special quesidillas, tacos and beans
Best Mexican food restaurant in the Imperial Valley, in my opinion. Hard working staff and very attentive. Try the special quesidilla. Only in the imperial valley does it exist. Don't forget to tip, they deserve it.
I've been coming here for years. Great food, service and always a delicious.
Staff was courteous.Appeared clean.I've eaten alot of Mexican food, sadly I felt the food had no flavor at all..very bland...not too expensive though.
Machaca burritos is definitely a repeat. The staff was really friendly and attentive.
Delicious spot for lunch on the way home from San Diego. Cecelia (Chica) our waitress was so friendly, attentive & helpful. The special Quesadilla was an amazing fried dough pocket filled with cheese, just heavenly! I ordered the chiles rellenos, my hubby ordered the machaca with tortilla. Both were extremely flavorful. We ended the meal with Bunuelos, deep fried dough with honey, cinnamon and ice cream on top. Wow!!! Amazing lunch and there were no leftovers, we ate it all. The staff was quick to clear dishes and then clean the tables and vacuum after each customer left. Bathrooms clean & tidy also. Can't wait to go back again. Try Celia's Restaurant, you won't be disappointed.
Every time I go home to the valley. Celia is an absolute must!!! Nowhere compares to the food and the friendliness of the staff
Delicious taco plate! Love the chips and salsa.
