Cha Cha Mexican Grill - it's not Taco Bell but it will do for now in Doha! (not that Taco Bell is the best Mexican Food but it's a favorite!) It's been such a long time that we were craving for same tacos and chimichangas and oh my oh my was our craving satisfied.
We did exert a bit lot of effort going to Cha Cha Mexican Grill. It is located in WOQOD Al Rayyan Petrol Station which is in just after a very busy round about. We went there on a Wednesday and it is already so congested.
Luckily, the restaurant has no customers at all. We had it all to ourselves. Of course, the service was really fast and the ambiance so relaxed. We interviewed the crew and they said that it's never really that crowded in the place. I think it makes sense since the restaurant is located in the petrol station - I wouldn't really fancy dining close to the petrol station, but that is just us.
The food tasted Mexican to us - but don't count on us - we are not Mexican! Duh! But the husband was pretty satisfied with his burrito - and he happily said pretty much the same as what he was used to have back in US.
Food prices are not bad for a fast food! It's more expensive than what we would normally pay in
McDonalds but way cheaper compared to a semi-Mexican dish in
Chili's or
Applebees. And they have refillable drinks so it's a pretty much a great place to hang out for some.
We just wished it was nearer to us so everytime we craved tacos or burritos, we could easily go. Let's hope they expand to different branches in Doha!

ReplyDeleteDO YOU THINK THAT I SHOULD TRY THIS KIND OF FOOD
I've tried it and was an enjoyable experience eating delicious and the atmosphere is great very nice
ReplyDeleteAha! I was looking for someone else's opinion on this place. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
ReplyDeleteI tried it last night. Like you said, the place was relaxed and clean, but in my opinion the food was just okay. Restaurant food in Qatar is very salty, and this place was no different. But I did appreciate them making my meal as spicy as requested.
To be honest I could make a more authentic, flavorful taco at home for far less money — and I'm neither Mexican nor an expert cook — but sometimes we're just too tired to deal with dirty dishes in the sink, so I'm not complaining. :)
This restaurant has a new owner now, and it's a Lebanese restaurant serving shawermas instead of tacos and borritos. Sigh. And we're back to having zero Mexican restaurants in the country.
