Celias Restaurant - El Centro (CA)

5 /5 Gayle Krufal: A friend recommended Celias. The Special Quesadilla was really good and the shredded beef taco was delicious. Will definitely stop again when in town.

1 /5 Aileen Martinez: This food is disgusting. I don’t like saying that because food is food but this is the worst fake Mexican food I’ve ever had. I ordered a shrimp plate & it literally had 2 pieces of shrimp. They’re very stingy, small portions even with the beans. They also gave us a Chile relleno & it tasted like it was frozen & it was so mushy. Honestly a waste of money, I feel like the good reviews are from people that don’t know real Mexican food & they think it’s the best. I’d be embarrassed to serve these type of plates.

5 /5 Leesa Hinsch: Hubby and I had a wonderful breakfast here. We have odd food intolerances (gf, night shade free and vegetarian) and easily found options on the menu. We love supporting family businesses and quirky places and Cecilias ticks those boxes. Cecilia, who started the business with her husband in 1994 is still running the restaurant, and her, along with her twin sister and cousin gave us great service and conversation.

5 /5 Nadia Lozano: We ordered to-go from this little Mexican spot and were really impressed. The staff was incredibly kind and made sure we had everything we needed—plates, napkins, and plenty of salsa. The flautas were noticeably larger than usual and packed with flavor. The salsa was a nice surprise: chunky and blended just right—not too watery. Great service and Good food!

5 /5 Andrew McMahon: I had the chili relleno dinner. Everything was quite good. The salsa was a bit more spicy than the average in AZ but it had good flavor so I didnt mind the sniffles. Even the beans and flour tortilla were good. I initially put 4 stars but changed it to 5 when I realized the only negative I could find was that the rice was just average. Service was good. I never even asked for a refill of my iced tea it just magically happened :-)
