Same owners as Cha Cha Cha!, this taqueria is more upscale. Locally grown/organic food is featured. Tortillas are made onsite. I had one meal there that was quite good. Cocktails are mostly tequila based, and they also offer tequlia flights

Just experienced my first Cha Taqueria visit, which unfortunately will be my last. I had to wait 25 mins. for two drinks, and we only got them after asking the bus staff. We requested chips and salsa 4X before it arrived. Once our food arrived we learned that the order was all wrong and had to be taken back = another 45+ mins of waiting. It seemed others were not having as bad of a visit as us - maybe we were just in the "invisible section" (even though the people 1.5 feet away from us were being served by 3 different staff members. Sorry Cha Taqueria, but TWO THUMB'S DOWN!

Ouch! Sounds terrible. I had really mixed up service (at least 3 or 4 different waiters) but my meal was OK, so I assumed it was just opening week struggles. Sounds like they are still having a tough time. Welcome to Public Press Wenzilla!

Well I don't know about you, but I didn't learn to ride a bike the first time. I needed some training wheels. I like to give a new restaurant at least a couple months before they can jump on their bike and do wheelies!!! I have been there a few times and each time I go back it gets better and better, food, service, and atmosphere. Love the Pastor Tacos!!! Oh and did I mention the staff are hot!!!

Went there last night for dinner with a group of friends. Interesting, fairly affordable drinks. Service was impeccable. Our waiter was friendly, checked in frequently, and the entire staff was attentive. The ceviche flight was impressive. Several of us got the tacos and found them to be a little bland. Others ordered the seafood stew and the pork entree and were quite pleased with their dishes. Cute location, fairly reasonable prices.

After waiting for more than 25 MINUTES for chips and drinks my family and I had to wait more than a half hour longer for our entrees to be served. They brought the food out at different increments of time; this meant that half our table's food came out while the other half had to wait. I thought it was standard practice for a restaurant to bring EVERYONES orders out at the same time, right? To top of the night I found a CHEWED TOOTHPICK in my burrito! When I was SO fed up that I asked for the check, I noticed that the manager actually CHARGED ME FOR THE TOOTHPICK-BURRI  TO!?? In my opinion, this was the worst service, most-expensive terrible mexican food I have EVER eaten in my life. Beware of what they might put in your burrito.....
