La Doña — Restaurant in Chehalis

Stayed overnight in Chehalis as part of a guided fishing trip on the Cowlitz River for Steelhead. After using Google Maps to explore all of the different options (quality, location, cost, atmosphere, etc.) my buddy and I kept coming back to La Dona's as the correct option.

BINGO......the right choice. The restaurant clearly shows pride of local ownership, the staff were very polite, timely and helpful and the food was spectacular. Nice portions, high quality ingredients, choices of homemade sauces, excellent homemade salsa, and very fairly priced. Many of the Mexican restaurants in the greater Seattle area are all so similar, that it seems like it doesn't matter which one you go to. La Dona's is different. The quality is higher, it feels like it's truly home made, which makes the overall experience ideal and leaving us very happy.

WIthout a doubt, next time we are in Chehalis we will be stopping again...

It feels kind of wrong but I held at three stars because of the lack of cerveza. I was told their working on the license... hopefully they get it. Now, I had the burrito with chicken. It was good and plenty filling. They served chips and salsa. The salsa was very flavorful but a bit thin for my taste. The chips were unlike any I've had in other restaurants. They are very substantial and that would be super helpful with a thicker salsa (chips wouldn't break easy). I'll give La Dona another go and try something else...

This place has the BEST chips!! They are a thicker type of tortilla chip and the best we’ve had locally. The salsa and an avocado sauce they have are fantastic!! The Heurracha entree and the Carne Asada are both filling and delicious. But the soft tacos (with radishes!) are where it is at - so good on the handmade tortillas.

Super easy call-in/pickup, I noticed they have a pickup window on the side of the building. It has always been clean and great service every time we...
