This restaurant offers a wide range of Mexican specialties, including breakfast, lunch, and dinner options. The food styles are all authentically Mexican, and the restaurant services include delivery, catering, groups, kids' menus, outdoor seating, reservations, takeout options, waitstaff service, and walk-ins.
One of the standout features of Chela Modern Mexican Cuisine and Tequila Bar is their handcrafted frozen margaritas. These drinks are made fresh by the bar team using only high-quality ingredients - no pre-made mixes here! Customers can even add flavors like passionfruit or coconut to their margaritas for an extra burst of flavor.
Chela also offers outdoor dining options during special events like the Fifth Avenue fair. Customers can enjoy churros and other tasty treats while soaking up the sun outside. And for those who prefer to dine at home or in their office, Chela offers seamless delivery with a 25% discount for Prime members.
But let's not forget about the food! One dish that has customers raving is the crispy Dorada - so good that they're considering making it a permanent menu item. And on Taco Tuesday (arguably the best day of the week), customers can indulge in their favorite tacos with friends and family.
Overall, Chela Modern Mexican Cuisine and Tequila Bar is a must-visit spot for anyone looking for authentic Mexican cuisine in Brooklyn. With its lively atmosphere, delicious food options, and top-notch service from Ronny Jaramillo (the general manager), it's no wonder this restaurant has become a local favorite.
