About El Jefe

El Jefe, a lively restaurant located in Port Credit, offers a vibrant atmosphere with heated patios and Taco Tuesday specials. The 3 taco special for $15 remains a popular choice, with options including shrimp, chicken, and pork. Customers have enjoyed the fish tacos, describing them as "slapped," while the shrimp is considered just okay. The pork duo tacos, however, have received negative feedback for being dry and lacking flavor. The ceviche has been said to be good but could be improved with chopped shrimp and fresher homemade tortilla chips. The restaurant's take on an old fashioned drink was different from the traditional one but still enjoyable. Some reviews mention that the music is played at a low volume, which can affect the ambiance, and the interior can feel quite dark and cool. Service has sometimes been slow, with issues like long wait times and difficulties scanning QR codes on tables. The staff, including the server praised for going above and beyond, are generally polite and attentive. However, some customers noted that the food, including the cuisine, can be lacking in flavor and freshness, and portions could be larger. The washrooms are kept clean, but overall, the food is considered average, leading some visitors to explore other Mexican options in the area before returning.
