    Our server was Esmeralda and she was the best. She did not rush us to order and when came to ordering she went over the menu nicely. She went along with our jokes and made sure that we were attended to in the best possible way. We have been to Cha Chas many times but this visit was extra special because we invited family. Esmeralda did not disappoint. Thank you

    Hidden gem for Mexican food. Walking in I thought this place was a typical bar; tv screens and loud music. It was a bar, plus more! When the Micheladas arrived in large cups I knew we were in for something special. Our appetizers arrived- empanadas and tacos enchilados, they weren’t skimping on the meat. Next the molcajete filled with ceviche and the camarones pacifico, I’ve never seen shrimp that large. If your a seafood lover you’ve got to try this place. The service was good and the food packed a punch of favor. We will be coming back!!!
