Customer Reviews
This was one the best restaurant experiences I have had in years. The food was delicious and the cocktails were so creative. Our server was fantastic. A new favorite in Philly, will definitely coming back. We paid about 100$ pP for a few shared mains, a shared dessert and two cocktails each.
La Jefa Cafe is AMAZING & one of Philly’s best kept gems! We treated ourselves to a Valentine’s Day brunch and the food, service & ambiance were each 5 stars! The Mexican (Guadalajaran) based cuisine “with a twist” was showcased by vegetarian huevos verdes, which was vibrant, and packed with flavor, along with a flavorful zucchini sandwich that was both hearty and light. To finish, with a deliciously creamy, cinnamon chocolate mocha, we shared a pistachio concha (doughnut) and marzipan danish both beautifully crafted, melt-in-your-mouth tasty without being overly sweet. The fresh ingredients experienced in every bite along with great service, creative menu, and outstanding execution makes this a premier restaurant without a premium price tag ! Can’t wait to try dinner-
Been going there to get my usual tascalate (it's so damn good!), but their brunch is absolutely fantastic! The Chicano might be one of the best sandwiches I ever had (to be fair I don't eat sandwiches often) and the concha was delicious. I can't wait to try the rest of the menu!
La Jefa is vibe! We stopped by for brunch and they were able to get us in without a reservation pretty easily. The bartender was really friendly, gave us great suggestions (the danish is 🔥), and even let us try a specialty mezcal we asked about. We’ll definitely be back for dinner!
We went here to celebrate some good news and it did not disappoint! The quesadilla and short rib dishes are out of this world - we plan to go back. Very friendly service and nice vibe as well. Looking forward to checking out the cafe. We noticed a good amount of people that seemed to be on first dates. It seems like a good spot for that. The drinks were also very good and they had a wide variety of options.
