/Sounds like "deh ah-KEH-yahs"/
A Chicano and Mexican expression meaning something is top-tier, first-class, impressive. "De aquellas" is the ultimate compliment for a party, a concert, a girlfriend, a truck, or anything that turned out great. You don't say "de aquella" in singular: it's always feminine plural, even if the noun isn't. It's one of the most iconic phrases in Chicano caló.
"Esa fiesta estuvo de aquellas. → That party was top-tier."
"Mi jaina es de aquellas. → My girl is the best."
