Omg have I died & gone to heaven?? Authentic. I got the Tijuana taco salad & a melon margarita. My bf got a chili Colorado burrito. Both phenomenal. Our server was Sergio who is regularly the bartender. He was amazing & even gave me an extra shell.

I have my birthday here every year. It's my fav restaurant. They have the best chips and salsa in Marin. The staff is goes above and beyond in every way and always accommodates large parties even on short notice. New York Steak with their sautéed onions with cheese enchiladas is the best pairing on earth. Drink the night away with the dancing ladies in fiesta paintings because the decorations bring me life. It's a whole vibe.

Our usual bunch of hooligans came here for lunch, and we had a great time as always! I could repeat earlier reviews, as the service, food and beverages were as expected, and we left a few hours later (yes . . . hours!) having eaten and drunken our fill. Needless to say, we shall be back. Hope you try them as well!

Celia's was the first place I went to sit inside and eat since the beginning of the pandemic. All staff wore masks, they had hand sanitizer and were so gracious and kind. The food was excellent and the service was 20 stars!!! It's been a while since I was there, maybe two months. I had the steak fajitas, with both corn and flour tortillas and a side of cheese. The steak was perfectly seasoned and tender! I'm ready to go back soon.
