Chelly's Cafe — Restaurant in Palmdale

Gave it a try after 2 years. Heard people suggest it lately by invitation. So what was good? The bacon. A side is $7.35 because my order had no meat,to my surprise. My daughter's and I ordered eggs Benedict traditional, sausage, and i went for the so-called California, browned oxidized avocado, on reg English muffin and a poorly executed over cooked poached eggs on all 3 orders. Sauce, nothing to cheer for.

My waitress was very nice but seemed overwhelmed. Got my order, correct. Final bill w coffee n 1 oj ($6.25) total 73.32 To finish it off when I was informed by the cashier who came to my table, possibly the owners daughter, she was a smart... I raised my opinion on overpriced bacon, and she stated I could go to ihop. Funny. As if their quality was as good as ihop or better. You looked at the menu right, she stated. BE AWARE 3% surcharge + 2.19 for credit card, visa doesn't charge them that much. I wasn't going to chance my debit card being compromised. Well, I won't be back, to say the least. Maybe their lease is too high? Walmart shopping center. A lot of fellow hard-working Hispanics support this business on a Friday. The place was busy. But you are getting robbed. Remember, to the owner, it's your people who make this up who you pay to service your customers. I could have paid and went home with a "valuable" lesson, and said nothing. 30 years in the restaurant business, including the magic castle, frank and musso, etc. And regular diners. Small business operators.

However, you're rude, "smart" young girl could have had a mature response to my opinion and said.... how can we improve? How can we make sure you come back and give us another chance? Etc. But again, it takes a mature person to react appropriately. I hope no time soon is this, the person, running your business with so many other choices. Including a big name next door like Black Bear. We come here to get the small business mom n pop service. And support you as a fellow businessman. I was upset. Because of the reaction. As a adult ive earned my right to be respected by a mocosa, respectively. It's not your prices. For what i get, that leaves a bad taste, that's your right. And mind to have a opinion and make a choice. I also waited 15 minutes between my first coffee and second for $5.00. Understand this is typical today. No worries. The price, not the service. I do apologize for my angry mess I left, for i wish the young person to clean, but unfortunately you're very nice, busboy who was who greeted us and served us our beverages. I wish I'd left him a...

Horrible service 😑 wife's food had a hair in it coming out of the kitchen. When it was brought to our waitresses attention, she responded with "OK, what would you like me done?" We also ordered a salad with no avocados and ofcourse there was avocados in it when it came out. When asked to fix it, they jist removed the avocados and brought back out the same salad. Luckily my kid didn't have an allergy to avocados otherwise this would have been a major problem. Then when ALL of this was brought to the owners attention, she just said "We're short staff, the pandemic is making it hard at times." Never once did she offer to comp us a meal or even a discount for these problems. She just went to the back to make her staff aware, which should have been the BASIC of things. Never coming back her nor will I suggest my family who just moved up there to go here either. Sadly, IHop or Dennys would have been better....that's a horrible...

Heard from a friend recommend this place so thought i would give it a try. Was pretty busy and had to wait about 25 minutes to be seated but not bad. They have a ton of choices and i wanted to try the chillaquilles with green spicy salsa. Chillaquilles are one of my favorite foods and I've eaten them all over Mexico and the U.S. Food came out pretty quick and looked great. The chips were just right, crispy but soaked in salsa, over easy eggs on top and a side of refried beans covered in cheese. The beans were a bit disappointing, average at best but not bad. The spicy salsa wasnt spicy at all but then again i like really spicy foods. Service was gold but not great, i had to ask for sweetener about 5 times before i got it and i forgot to mention i was sat at a conjoined table with another party which was a bit awkward. Overall i give this place 4 stars. Good overall...
