El jefe is definitely not the Boss of Mexican food.
Overall the ambiance was very nice, the staff was nice, the Margarita was NOT good and the food was below average.
The $12.00 Top Shelf Margarita was no where near as good as the mix you buy at Wal Mart. It seemed as if they had a pitcher in the fridge that had sat too long and was watered down.
At El Jefe, they seemed to use every trick in the book to give the impression of robust amounts of food without actually providing much of the expensive stuff. The guacamole is served in a metal Martini glass. An inch above the top of the glass is Guacamole, everything from the rim under is shredded ICEBERG LETTUCE!
They ran out of steak so I ordered the shrimp tacos. They put 3 small pieces of shrimp in each taco. They did put a piece at the front and back of the taco to make it look full. It was not. Tacos were below average. My sister in law ordered Fish tacos. Each taco had TWO tiny pieces of fish in them. Taste also below average.
The Taco salad was a plate of shredded Iceberg Lettuce and was well below average.
This was not good mexican food. I do not recommend El Jefe.
