Chelino's Mexican Restaurant - i got the Chile Relleno Burrito with carne asada And it was the best burrito i've had EVER in Sonoma county - Mexican Near Me - Santa Rosa, California

Asked a coworker where he liked to get tortas from and he suggested Chelino's. I called in my order before driving over and they said 15 minutes. When I walked in, I was greeted and told them my name, order was ready and I drove home. They aren't kidding about the size of the torta and but the quality of the meat and vegetables weren't lacking. The telera was soft and fresh, soaking in the beans and meat juices. This was the perfect dinner after a long day and I'll want to return to eat in the restaurant to check out more of their menu. read more

Oh my! We've been looking for a go-to Mexican spot for a while now. Although we've found some good ones, nothing that hits it out of the park consistently, in an environment where you want to sit and eat at comfortably like Chelino's. This place is a cross between a taqueria and restaurant. They have all the taqueria goodies that you can get order dine-in or take-out at the register, but also restaurant quality... well, everything. We've gotten quite a few things here now. The highlights: -Wet Burritos are bomb. I generally prefer green sauce, and their green sauce is some of the best I've ever had. And they give you tons of it. Which is nice when you're paying extra. And if they say wet, you want that thing sopping. And it is! ...And yes, the burrito is huge. -Their chile verde - drooooool. I got it in the burrito, wet, so you've got that delicious green sauce inside and out. Pork is super tender enrobed in that sauce. Oh my god! So good. -Enchiladas... again, green sauce. Drool central! Their plates are huge, and comes classic Mexican style with rice, beans, salad, pico de gallo and guacamole. And lots of it. Sadly, it's hard to find generous portions like that. If you're craving Mexican, you're craving something hearty, so you want those big portions. -Chile Rellenos - it is exactly how I want it to taste. And they stuff lots of cheese in it. Great batter, great sauce, everything tastes homemade. Again, the plate has rice, beans, pico, guac. It is HUGE. -Bean and Cheese burrito - my husband loves bean and cheese burritos. I joke that he is 80% beans, and so this fills his necessary bean quotient by a lot by eating here. He gets the large and it is huge. It is all just bean and cheese, as advertised. He loves it... once again wet with the green sauce. We did try the mole, and it is good! Mole is one of those tastes I have to be in the mood for. But the time we tried it, it was dang good. Just about everything we've had here is good. And there's so much more to try. The pozole! I haven't tried their al pastor yet. And I think they have menudo... I'm so glad we found Chelino's. My husband heard about it from one of his hospice patients, a Mexican woman name Maria who loves it. She can't really eat her favorite meal from there, chicken enchiladas, but I'm glad she passed on the joy of Chelino's onto us. Service has always been friendly, and they come around to check on you and give you more chips if you ask for it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There's kind of a diner feel to it. It's clean and comfortable, unlike some of the more taqueria type places.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We love this place and will be back... very often. read more

Have been enjoyed the food since its start as Pepe's on Sebastopol Ave. The Adobada here is outstanding! read more

If you love amazing Mexican food, this place is a must. Huge portions and great service. I'll definitely be coming back.

It's my favorite restaurant. Best Mexican food for hundreds of miles. Totally authentic. Delicious. High quality. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Inside and outside seating. Some big booths, too.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Good service and casual environment. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Family friendly place.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] read more

Used to go all the time but its gotten so expensive to eat there. Went for my son's birthday. Really disappointed, no more salsa bar, no more free refills and when I asked for a new cup she said she would have to charge me a new cup. Wow! Food was mediocre for what they charge. read more

We still haven't found another Mexican restaurant in the area that we like more than Chelinos. Every time we try something new we comment about it not being as good as Chelinos as we are eating it! We love the green sauce chicken enchiladas , the asada chimichanga and horchata drink. Always hits the spot read more

Tucked in the corner of fourth and college sits Chelinos. I've been here once before many years ago. It wasn't until recently that a friend recommended this place that brought me back to eating here. Dare I say I've been here at least a dozen times in 2025! Usually here eating the taco salad but today had the wet super burrito with asada. Their asada is the best I've had so far in Santa Rosa. The service is genuine and impeccable. The restaurant is cleans and well maintained. I have never had a meal that was disappointing. Love their chips! Note they are closed on Tuesday's so they can have a day rest (learned that the hard way lol). read more

I don't live in Santa Rosa. Was visiting with family. We al went for lunch at Chelino's and all loved it! Food is fresh and tasty, large portions, good variety. [[HIGHLIGHT]]We made small talk with other friendly people in line.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] 10/10 would recommend. Would come again when I am in the area. read more

Food was very authentic and yummy. the service is great. Everyone is super friendly. Highly recommend.

What a find this place was in Santa Rosa. Dying for a snack and Michelada we stopped here. Order when you walk in at the counter with an expansive menu I had no idea what to hope for. Watching the drink being prepared must have been like watching DaVinci work, it was out of this world. The green spicy sauce was delish on the enchiladas and the burrito was enormous. The service was fast and attentive. The restaurant was clean, hospitable and well lit. There is even outdoor seating. I highly recommended this one. read more

Let's just cut to the Chase. Is this taqueria more expensive than most others in Santa Rosa? Absolutely. Is it worth it? Absolutely. The food is by far better than any other taqueria in Santa Rosa. It easily competes with the best sitdown Mexican restaurants of the area, probably even clips them on various dishes. I've tried most of the stuff from the menu, it always delivers. The quality of the ingredients, preparation, flavor, always a win. I dare you to go there and prove me wrong. read more

My family LOVES this place. When I went to visit my family, they had dinner and then breakfast here. Their super burritos are delicious, but I decided to deviate to see what else is good. Their Camarones al mojo de ajo was ok. I was expecting it to taste as delicious as this place in Santa barbara, which makes their sauce creamy and garlicy. When my family went for breakfast, I decided to copy my sister in law and get the taco salad. Their Taco salad is delicious. The taco shell gives you get a nice crisp texture and they have a good amount of toppings, and I posted a picture so you could see how much they put. It's a good ratio of meat, sour cream, and guacamole. Next time I come back, I'll probably stick to super burritos or taco salad. read more

It took 2 girls at the registers to figure out our order. They couldnt figure out how to charge for Camarones de diabla. We always get them. Finally a 3rd girl had to come over. And were told that the prices that are listed on the wall or not the same price's. That's not ok and the board should be changed. I have never had a horrible experience, till today. We always tell people about this place, with the wrong prices being displayed is not ok. I even know Fernando and I wish he was here. read more

Not sure how I never knew of this Mexican restaurant. Decided to stop by for 2 tacos to go and WOW, these are MASSIVE and soooo delicious! Will definitely return and dine in next time! read more

Are you looking for king size portions that taste good? If the answer is yes then this is the place for you. Good food with huge portions, how can you go wrong. Chelinos has been a go to spot for breakfast, lunch and dinner for us for many years. We highly recommend this spot. It is a little more on the expensive side so don't be shocked when you see the price. But just know it will probably be two meals in one. read more

Después de un minuto, levanta la vista y dice: ¡Lo siento, pero continúa en su telefono, y ya que la moleste toma mi orden como que me hiso un favor! read more

Great food great service the food is made with love. The chili verde is very delicious

What I love the most at Chelino's is their crispy chicken taco! It's the best, and I search hi and low for my favorite crispy chicken taco! Hubby has ordered other items, last time he had the chicken mole. It came with large chicken leg and thigh, smothered in mole sauce. He loves mole, me not so much, so I can't comment on how good that mole was. The service is quick, the restaurant seems clean every time I am there. The salsa bar is just so-so. And I don't really care for their chips, I have had better in other places. But I will continue to go for the crispy chicken taco! read more

No coman el menudo de aquí me enfermo bien feo llevó 2 días enfermo no creo que el menudo esté fresco del día.

I just moved across the street from here so I was hopeful when I enjoyed their breakfast burrito the first time. However on my second visit after calling in the order it took 45 minutes for one burrito. I won't be back. read more

Super good, highly recommend. My friend ordered the Chile Colorado and i ordered the Super Nachos w/ carne asada. Both were great.

With plenty of Mexican eateries around the area one could really get spoiled by the quality of dishes that is put out by these places. Chelino's Mexican Restaurant in Santa Rosa certainly belongs in that distinguised list of delicious Mexican eateries. I was able to try this place for breakfast with a friend after a long hike. Famished and requiring something warm and nourishing, I was hoping that a hearty breakfast was the cure-all. I was right to expect it from Chelino's. I ordered their Machaca con huevos--minced steak with eggs, green peppers, tomatoes, and onions. It was served with beans and a side of tortillas. They also serve tortilla chips to munch on while waiting for the order. Overall, I was very satisfied with the dish. It was flavorful, cooked perfectly, and the steak was not rubbery at all, which does happen when mixed together in scrambled or omelette style dishes. Sitting outdoors, enjoying the meal, and unwinding after a great workout was the best feeling and I had Chelino's to thank for that! read more

Stopped by this place for lunch after not visiting for a year. I ordered 3 street tacos and a small fountain drink total was $26.01. I asked about the taco pricing and they currently are charging $6.72 per taco. Save yourself from some pricey mediocre Mexican food and go somewhere else. read more

Been eating her for the last 20 years. I always stop here for takeout when visiting SR. I really think it's the best Mexican food in Santa Rosa. Chelino is affiliated with Pepe's. If you like Pepe's you'll love Chelino's. read more

I Love coming to Chelino's. You can't go wrong with whatever you order here, but It is my #1 place for tacos when I am in Santa Rosa town, especially with their amazing salsa. Service is always nice and friendly. read more

Very good quality meat. Pleasant staff. Decent prices. Good salsa for the chips. Not crazy about the refried beans.

Very disappointed been coming here since a kid and we came today and we waited 1 hour before saying something because it was very busy and we where being considerate and patient. finally went to ask for our food, and the staff had not even started our food and they had already closed at that point. The second star is for the fact that they apologized and refunded us and gave us half made food. I don't know if I'll go back. read more

Older Lady at the front counter was EXTREMELY rude and had attitude as soon as I walked in the door! Will NEVER be back! There are PLENTY of Mexican restaurants in Sonoma County that appreciates my business. Chelino's needs to train their employees how to respect customers! Lost a customer today! Sad. read more
