Literally tried so hard to find this place and asked so many people but Nothing. It's like it doesn't exist lol. So we just went to the bar across the street and had an amazing dinner/time. Probably don't waste your time trying to come to EL JEFE COCINA & BAR because you won't find it!

Highly recommend El Jefe! We had their food truck and bar staff come to our annual Summer Party in August and they were amazing! All of the staff was friendly, professional and worked hard. Special shout out to Miguel, the owner, who helped in assisting anywhere he needed to be even changing out our garbage's! The food was amazing, as well as the margaritas! Huge success this year, and a month later people are still raving about those margaritas!

Not authentic tacos, barbacoa tastes like shredded meat with Valentina sauce. Pastor meat tasted horrible. Definitely not a place that’s worth paying 9$ for 2 tacos that are smaller than my palm.

El Jefe... we have now used the food truck for two outdoor events for 100+ attendees and been extremely pleased! The staff is friendly and helpful and the food is tremendous. Huge hit with all of the party goers. We added the bar service this time and really made life easy for everyone. The team at El Jefe delivers a top quality product and we will do it again for sure!!

It's not a bad spot for some tacos and other options, but it's pretty overpriced. The food was tasty and the service was good, but nothing spectacular. Calling this spot "okay" really sums up everything perfectly.

Vegetarian options: The vegetable tacos were good.

This is a ghost kitchen inside the VFW. We went on a Friday night, it was super busy and packed. We ordered the asada tacos. They were horrible. No seasoning at all. Tasted like they just boiled the meat and threw it on a shell. I would not recommend to anyone for food. Maybe for drinks.

We had El Jefe come to a company event with their food truck. The food and staff were both great! Would definitely recommend!

We had to make some last minute changes and reach out to El Jefe to see if they could assist us with our grooms dinner. Everyone was amazing through the whole process and very accommodating. The food was incredible and served fast. Even with the 100 degree weather Miguel made sure we had a great time. Thank you El Jefe!

We had El jefe food truck for our wedding and they were excellent. Easy to work with before hand and accommodating. The day of, service was quick and everyone loved the food. The biggest hit was the beef nachos. Would hire them again for future events in a heartbeat.
