This spot is honestly so underrated! The food here is SO good. My absolute favorite dish is the red steak enchiladas with a side of rice and beans (sadly I forgot to take a picture ). The flavor is on point and it's always satisfying. The only dish I wasn't too big on was the posole. It wasn't bad at all, but it didn't taste like traditional Mexican posole -- it leaned more toward a Tex-Mex flavor. Again, not bad, just not what I personally look for when I'm craving authentic posole. I also love that it's not overly popular to the point where you're waiting forever to be seated. It has a nice, relaxed vibe. That said, I really hope they get more clientele because they deserve it -- I'd love to see them expand and grow. Definitely a hidden gem! read more

First time here and I stopped in on a Friday around 3pm and the entire restaurant was empty. The interior was clean and we were immediately greeted and sat down. Our server was very friendly and took our drinks and food order in a timely manner. I ordered the shrimp Cocktail and I personally feel it was bland in flavor. It had a lot of shrimp but the quality of the shrimp wasn't the best and it just seemed to be shrimp in Clamato juice. We also ordered the 3 tacos combo plate. The beans and rice had flavor and seemed to be freshly made. The carnitas tacos were flavorful and had a nice crunch, but the asada was subpar. I also ordered a michelada with draft beer and it was under poured. All in all, it was a decent meal but I likely won't return. read more

Delicious authentic Mexican food in Henderson. Service was outstanding and food was of high quality. My wife is really about Mexican cuisine and she fell in love with this little gem.

First off, best food I've ever had. If you live in the area and you havent visited, you've done yourself a massive disservice. The only thing better than their food is the service; Raul is the best server in town... no one is even close. As a clueless white dude, they gave me an amazing education on soccer and I was able to enjoy the world cup. Best food in town and an amazing family. read more

Great food great atmosphere we traveling to las Vegas and found this in Henderson Nv and looked at reviews and glad we picked this restaurant it was gem and delicious food read more

I've been driving by Chavelo's for years and today i decided to stop in for a lite bite and drink. I should have stopped here years ago! Ambiance is inviting, bright with cultural design and traditional Hispanic music. Staff promptly greeted me and directed me to a table. I started with a house Michelada, as I looked over the menu I was brought complimentary chips, salsa and pinto refried beans. All tasted fresh and flavorful. I followed with the cocktail de camarones. (shrimp cocktail) Portion was a good size, flavor was lite. Which was nice since I could then add more citrus or spice as I see fit. Michelada was on point so I had another! Overall, throughly enjoyed my experience here. Highly recommend checking it out. Great job to the team at Chavelo's. read more

The servicing was bad. The food was worse and the drinks are horrible. We ordered margaritas with a certain tequila and of course it was extra money. But on top of that it was all sweet and sour . So we ordered 2 shots of the tequila and they g8ve us the really rock gut shit not the ones that we ordered for we originally ordered for the margaritas. But of course they charged us for the higher end tequila. Will not nor haven't been back. read more

Raul was our server!!! Great service and delicious food!!! We had the taco salads and an order of fundido w/ chorizo... highly recommend! So delicious! We live on the other side of town from this restaurant, but we enjoyed it so much... we'll be back!! read more

Happened upon this place after purchasing a car at the auto mall. Was in the mood for Mexican and we were on this side of town. Moljacete was probably the best Moljacete I have ever had in my life. My husband and I shared and it was plenty of food for the both of us . read more

Came here about 7pm but the food was SO bomb!! We live down the street and every time we've passed it we say how bad we wanna try it... last night was the night and oh man. Chips and salsa are bomb! The chips are so fresh that they're literally still hot when put on the table! All the food was so good! Sopa was awesome before our food. We had a cheese crisp with chicken, wet fajita burrito, fajita quesadilla and a kids meal and everything was BOMB! We'll be back for sure! read more

It was a packed Saturday night and as expected took a little while for food to come out. It came out hot and spicy--just the way it should! read more

This is a good Mexican place. Went with my friends on a Saturday afternoon. It is not busy. We had a good time. Unfortunately, it is not Happy Hour. Happy hour is from Monday to Friday from 3pm until 6pm. During Happy Hour, their draft beers are 4$, and classic margarita is $6.95. Some appetizers are $8.95, i.e., mini street tacos quesadillas, mini taquitos dorados, nachos, and tacos. I had a chimichanga a parilla. The meat was tasty and tender. I had mine with the green sauce. My meal came in with beans and rice. I had left over. My other friend enchilada. My other friend also had a chimichanga, but his was shredded meat with the red sauce. For Yelpers, if you check in, you get a free Bunuelo. read more

I LOVE this place! I've always had great quality food and the service is always stellar! I used to go to another Mexican restaurant spot but was never happy with how my tummy felt the next day. This place is delicious and never crowded but should be! It's a cute spot with excellent food. Do check them out read more

It was a long day. I needed chips and beans and a marg STAT! So instead of going to our normal place, we decided to give Chavelos a try, given it's about 10 min closer to our house than our normal place. Rolling up at around 515pm, I was a little worried because it's never a good sign when the parking lot is empty. The place was pretty empty too except for one other couple eating. Now, I won't lie, I know 515 is early bird time but Happy Hour and there were people who came in a few minutes after us and it started to get busy as we were leaving. The place is decorated cute and is fairly clean. The furniture is a little worn but as long as it's clean, I don't judge too hard. The service we got was ok. There was always someone different coming to our table so I don't know if they share duties or if there was some confusion. I try really hard to not be offended when people who sit after us are served first but maybe that was an oversight by the restaurant? Who knows? I will say that everyone was friendly, even if not the most attentive. I ordered a grapefruit fruit margarita but they were out of grapefruit so I switched to strawberry. No big deal but make sure when you order, you specify HH so you don't get charged full price if you are within HH time. It was a bit watered down/lacked flavor and had a sugar rim (disgusting) so I doubt I'd order it again but it was ok. The free chips/beans/salsa was really good. I have ZERO complaints about the food here. Everything tasted fresh and delicious. I wanted to try the Yelp check-in dessert but I was very full at the end of the meal (and it wasn't on the menu so I felt a little apprehensive) but I saved it for next time! read more

Food: enchiladas verdes, bbq ribs They give you free refried beans dip and fresh salsa with chips. Both were delicious and I could have made a meal from that! The enchiladas were just ok. I prefer shredded chicken but theirs were grilled bits. Also the green sauce was just ok. The serving was large and I could only finish half. I would come back again to try some appetizers. read more

My dad requested a CHILE RELLENO on his 78th birthday. I tried Chavelos with my fingers crossed. Let me first say that this dish is NOT traditionally breaded, then fried. Unfortunately, most places bread their chiles. Chavelos makes them the right way!! DELICIOUS. He was so happy! read more

Eating at Chavelo's again with friends. The service is excellent as usual and the ambiance the same, very Mexican and extremely clean and well decorated. I ordered the Taco salad with shredded beef, steak fajitas, ceviche, carneasada burrito and steak street tacos for the 5 of us. The food was superb as always. My guests really enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. The prices as very reasonable and within anyone's budget. I'd give this fine restaurant 10 stars if I could. I'll be back again and again. read more

I have never had a bad experience here, great people and great food. I recommend the Tierra y Mar, it's always very good.

We decided to give this place a try since we are always driving by it, we got there at around 3:30pm and they had just opened at 3pm so, we were the 1st ones there for the evening (this was a Tuesday night) Mon thru Thurs they don't open until 3pm & earlier hours are Fri, Sat and Sun. We were greeted quickly and our server was friendly and personable, we were brought chips and salsa and bean dip (that was not tasty at all) the chips and salsa were fresh and good, we started with a draft beer (Pacifico I think is what my boyfriend had) and I ordered a margarita on the rocks (easy ice) and it was delicious and pretty strong because I was feeling a bit giddy but, I hadn't eaten anything all day, looking at other pictures though with the restaurant I'm a bit disappointed in my glass size since all the others are twice the size of the one I was served??? We ordered the chicken fajitas minus the tomatoes and we also ordered a chimichanga with red sauce and rice and beans and it was A lot of food because I took 1/2 my fajitas home and had them for lunch the next day and I also got a free dessert at the end (it was free from Yelp for checking it) it was fried tortillas with cinnamon and sugar with chocolate sauce drizzled on top and a little whip cream and I thought it was delicious. We look forward to coming back and trying something new next time, thank you for the great service and I wish many years of success to you and your establishment. read more

This is definitely a hidden gem - DO NOT miss out. Find your way here and do it often. Exceptional service, delicious margs, delicious food, Carne Asada cooked to order (& perfection), great prices, world series already playing before we walked in, and my teenage son loved every course from the fideo soup on down. If I lived here we would hang out here at least once a week. The perfect blend of great food, reasonable prices, and a warm, welcoming, fun atmosphere. read more

Absolutely incredible experience. The food was delicious, fresh, and full of flavor, and the service was truly amazing.

We live in the area and this is our 1st time here and I really recommend this place! Everything is on point: the ambiance, the food and the service. I kinda judge a Mexican Restaurant by how good the beans are; good beans equates good food and vice versa. And the beans are delicious, as was the rest of our meals. Raul was very helpful during our visit. read more

My fiancé and I came here for dinner at 6pm on a Friday and loved it. They had no wait, so we were seated instantly which was nice because we didn't make a reservation. They brought us chips and salsa immediately, then we ordered guacamole and drinks which they also brought out really quick. Our server was very friendly too. As for the food, the guac was heavier/chunkier than most other Tex Mex places I've been to. My fiancé loved it. I got the chicken quesadilla which was solid, and my fiancé got the barbacoa entree and loved it. I usually am not a fan of barbacoa but very much liked this entree. Last, prices are really reasonable here. Definitely recommend this spot, and I heard their breakfast is solid too. read more

If you are looking for some pretty darn good Mexican cuisine. Look no further. Chavelos is the place to go. Service was great, quick and super friendly. They went above and beyond during our entire dining experience. We came with a larger party and they kept all our drinks topped off and plates cleared out. The food, was flavorful, portions were great and by far some of the best Mexican food I've found out here. Their Sopes were to DIE for and the Sope was crispy and yum. The only reason I didn't give this place 5 stars is because the ambiance. It was laid back and casual. Nothing special or memorable. Seats were comfy however. This is a definite must try! The food doesn't disappoint. The drinks looked really yummy too. I will definitely go back. read more
