    I was Shook at how great this place was! the was a raging fire pit going while we were there and the food was absolutely spot on! I could put that Chimichuri on a used shoe and I'd eat it! Bravo to all involved!

    The food is amazing and all gluten free. Everything tastes rich and fresh. I love it! At the food truck there is some parking and outdoor seating. There was a fire going since it was chilly. The wood burning was the first thing you smell getting out of the car - perfect way to spend a fall afternoon!

    This is a cute little spot with great food. My husband and I showed up here around 8pm and they were probably ready to clean up and close shop. They made our food on the spot and it was so delish that we cant wait to try something else off the menu now

    The food was absolutely delicious. The wife loved the #5 and my daughter and I love the vegetarian bowl. The people are super friendly and service is very prompt.

    When my wife and I need comfort food after a really hard time or difficult day, we both just want Chella’s! One Pernil Arepa and everything in life feels better. Some yuca fries with Llama and Aioli just make it all the better!
