Customer Reviews
We recommend El Jefe's Grill for the excellent food and friendly service! I had the Steak Street Tacos and my wife had the Chicken Street Tacos. We shared a side of Rice and Beans. The tacos are large for street tacos, so four tacos is a good meal! The food is all made fresh daily an we could tell. The flavors of the pico and crema are fantastic! The beef was grilled to perfection and had the taste of authentic Mexican beef! The beans and rice were a nice addition (we will get chips next time) The restaurant was understaffed when we visited but the wait was made pleasant by the friendliness of the staff (even the cook served meals with an great attitude) The place is very clean, austere, and I found the seating to be uncomfortable! It's quiet inside so it's a nice place to visit with ot
Their steak and chicken cooked with tallow is melt-in-your-mouth tender and so flavorful. We’ve tried their bowls, Mexican sandwich, burritos, salads, and plates and none have disappointed. Their salsas and sauces are top notch and full of amazing flavor. Oh, and don’t forgot to try the churro fries! Don’t let the prices dissuade you, every single dish we’ve tried has easily been shareable. (Picture is the 1lb steak plate which was shared with 4 people)
Had an amazing night out at this new spot we found El Jefe's Grill Mexican BBQ... Food was crazy good, think elevated Mexican street food.. super high quality ingredients, we ordered a steak burrito, steak tacos and fish tacos. 10 out of 10. Not only did the owner Sam come over and converse, he comped a beer just because... and gave us secret menu items that aren't even available yet, he let us try some shredded beef that was amazing, and some chorizo tortilla soup that was out of this world. You can't keep me away from this place I will definitely be back! Thanks Sam!
The steak tacos are amazing! Melt in your mouth, bite-sized morsels… perfectly grilled. So juicy and flavorful! The CarneViche was fresh and delightful! We finished off our meal with churro fries. A yummy crispy treat, but not too sweet! We truly did not want this meal to end! Highly recommend!
Super turned off by our attempted visit tonight, sadly because the first time it was good. I guess businesses think they don't have to keep up the good service after being opened a while? No hello or greeting. The older lady working the front was snotty and had her nose down working on something. Finally said I'll be right with you and continued her conversation with the guy counting money behind her. If something starts off bad, I don't feel the need to give them my money, so after being ignored and greeted rudely we left. They still had an hour left open so not sure what the rush was to do closing tasks that should be done after you are done serving your customers. I'll gladly take my money elsewhere and I did. First review: New Mexican spot in town with healthy options. We had to try,
