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!

El Jefe joined us for an event, and the service was fantastic! Despite having a line for almost three hours, they were quick and friendly. I was grateful for vegetarian and gluten free options. I heard great reviews from all around!Vegetarian options: Staff were very clear and helpful regarding what was or could be made vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: As a gluten free vegetarian, I was still able to order multiple items!
