Visited here for the first time Saturday after a family member recently moved into the area (Rancho District of Burbank, right next door to the Los Angeles Equestrian Center). This restaurant was fantastic! The decor is very traditional Mexican with heavy dark wood furniture, lots of colorful adornments on the walls, and a beautiful bar, but it is very casual and relaxed! We looked at the menu beforehand (as we always do!) and saw that the food is not necessarily what one might consider 'traditional' Mexican but is a bit more upscale and has distinct Yucatan influenced dishes among the favorites! We ordered a Taco Dorado de Papa (potato taco), Pollo (chicken) Asado tacos w/rice and beans (Frijoles Negros), Cochinita Pibil (slow roasted pork), Ceviche de Cameron (shrimp), Guacamole, and 3 drinks (2 mocktails: Mockgarita, Miche-Nada) and a traditional Margarita. THE FOOD WAS ALL WONDERFUL! And so beautifully presented! (Sadly, we were so blown away by the striking presentation that we forgot to take pictures and got right down to eating!) The potato tacos were super crispy and the corn tortillas for the chicken tacos and Pibil were fresh and thick! The Pibil was definitely a big hit, as it came in its own mini cast iron platter and was fall-apart tender! The sides of rice and beans were also a nice surprise, as the herbed rice had a nice cilantro flavor and the black refried beans were creamy and smooth - side note I have not seen black beans presented this way before as they are usually served as whole beans but definitely liked them served this way even better! Our meal/drinks for 4 came in at a very reasonable $130 with tax and a 3% credit card surcharge (We saw several reviews complaining about the surcharge: we didn't mind it as it is now the norm at some restaurants; they don't surcharge debit cards or cash). Overall, this was a great meal and we will definitely be returning!

Visited Celia's for the first time and it will not be the last! Because we were hungry we went for the Molcajete Azteca and it did not disappoint! Very good flavor. Our micheladas were 10/10, the Paloma cocktail however, did need some work :( Excited to try their Sunday brunch and excited for other opportunities to try other food on the menu (the Moles)!
