Chavela's is a delightful gem on Franklin Ave that truly nails the Mexican vibe! 🌮 I visited for a cozy dinner and was blown away by the chicken mole - rich, chocolatey, and so comforting. The homemade tortillas on the taco platter were a highlight, making each bite feel special.

The atmosphere is lively and colorful, reflecting the vibrancy of the food. Our server was friendly and attentive, making sure we felt welcomed.

Seating outside under the heat lamp was a treat, and the rapid service was impressive! Can't wait to return for more mole and maybe some of those famous homemade conchas! Highly recommend... 😊
