Mahi mahi was good. Short rib capa and as good. Quesadillas good but lots of salt and butter. Good service

Great cocktails and food. Guacamole and ceviche were truly enjoyed. Enchiladas were were the special of the day and were delicious. We will return. Love that each day there is a different special.

Wasn't expecting it, but everything was wonderful. My wife and I talked about our dinner later, and we both were so pleasantly surprised- especially with the service. Recommend highly, we will be back.

Chips and salsa are excellent - and free. Food was pretty good - enchilada special on Weds is a great deal. Solid cocktials. Will enjoy the patio when the weather warms up and the screens are raised.

Cha Cha's is always a great time. My family chooses Cha Cha's for akmost every special occasion AND frequently for no occasion at all. The food is fantastic and the weekday specials are such a grwat deal. Miguel, or server was super friendly and attentive. We had another great experience last night.

Been here a few times with friends. Smiles from staff as so as you walk in. We have always sat in patio area summer and winter patio near the heater lamps.Our servers have always been friendly and patient while we decide that we always want to order but we always end up getting the salmon. OH MY GOOSH the salmon is the best with some kind sauce that goes great with the fish and potatoes. . I highly recommend to order the salmon. Maybe next time I will try another dish but I highly doubt it cause it's that delicious. Special every night of the week so check it out. We usually go on Monday nights. Enjoy

Good food. Fast service but a bit too “pushy” when trying to clear the table while we were obviously still eating, multiple interruptions for the same thing while we were obviously engaged in an emotional discussion and came to the table 3 times to ask for the payment, interrupting over and over again instead of providing a little space.

My bf and I got the ceviche sampler ($16), queso fundido with chorizo ($14), and caldo ($25). Our friend got the salmon. The chips came out first with 3 different salsas. Nothing super unique about the chips. The ceviche was solid. It had a strong flavor. The queso fundido was ok (not as good as the one I had in Mexico obviously). It had too many potatoes, and I didn’t taste any chorizo. It comes with 5 tortillas, so it was surprisingly filling. The caldo had great flavor, and the seafood was tender. Ambiance was nice, and service was good

We went to Cha Cha's Latin Kitchen during the OC Restaurant Week. We really liked the green salsa with the chips. The Sopes were flavorful but a little messy and I wish they had a meat option. The Posole had a milder flavor than what i'm use to but was still tasty. We got the Crab and Shrimp Enchiladas and the Salmon. While they were both good, we probably wouldn't get them again. The Flan dessert was super sweet and extra creamy, which I enjoyed.The atmosphere is lively and the outdoor seating was cozy since they have heaters.And there's plenty of parking in the plaza.

The food was great, loved the margaritas, our server was very attentive. The hostess was amazing, she saw we had a stroller with us so she accommodated us by sitting us at a different table where the stroller would fit more comfortably.

My husband and I had a wonderful experience. Loved the food and our server Jack was phenomenal. Enjoyed Sopes & Pazoles for apps. Carnitas and Salmon for the main course and flan & tres leche cake for dessert. Also had a jalapeño margarita. Would definitely recommend this restaurant to friends & plan on returning.

Came to try for OC Restaurant Week. Ordered the set dinner special that offered an app, entree and dessert. The service was very slow, took a long time to get drinks, chips and salsa. Then they dropped the entrees before they brought the appetizers. Very, very loud. Good was good but the entire experience was pretty lousy.
