If I could give this place more stars, I would. I walked in on a Thursday night with no reservation and they did not bat an eye when I asked for a 25 person table for my birthday… and not for lack of business! They smiled, were so incredibly kind and delivered amazing service. They were quick and did not mess up a single order or bill when it was time to split meals & drinks 17 some odd different ways. I genuinely had the best time because they made the experience so seamless and fun, when they easily could have shown how overwhelmed they must have been, but it never showed. They took pictures for us, sang & invited us back for an event in February. Will be a lifelong customer at El Jefe! THANK YOU! This is the prototype for quality...

I drove past last night and decided to order lunch today, I ordered online and picked up the lunch special Burrito California, with chicken, it comes with chips & salsa to go. The burrito was excellent the chicken was perfectly cooked, the lettuce fresh and the sauce that comes topped over the burrito was delicious. I brought the meal back to work and was able to share with co workers. We are planning to come in after work to try out the adult beverages and eat in the near future. I am so glad I tried something new. Keep up the great...

For their “one year anniversary” it isn't all nacho appetizers like the flyers promotes. Our server told us it was all of them, but we ordered the fajita nachos and the manager refused to make them 50% off that these were excluded from the deal. Also, don't bother getting the 2 for 1 marg. It costed us $17.Should've just got the 1.99 16 oz instead. Plus check your statement at the end of the night, they added a $10 tip to our bill. I reached out via their website to talk to someone about all of this, no response. Save your trip, El...

gonna need a bigger parking lot, hopefully a restaurant other than a big chain can make it here. First of all, a great michelada at a decent price. Chips and salsa were pretty normal. The staff here is very friendly and interactive. I also ordered a tamale, the filling was beef, the dough was cooked perfectly and it was covered in a tasty sauce with more meat. I had the Toastaquac as well, a crispy tostada with beef, cheese, lettuce, guacamole, sour cream and tomatoes, it was tasty. I will be back and i will bring friends.

Get ready Lexington! This is better than any Mexican food you'll eat in town! Long- time customers of Casa Bonita in Lawrenceburg, we tried El Jefe finally today!! Great food and friendly staff! They talk to you and treat you like a real person unlike other Mexican restaurants in Lexington. Food, great as we expected. Highly recommend Quesabirria Tacos and of course it wouldn't be a trip there without a margarita! Ask for Mario, he's the best and we miss him in Lawrenceburg!

I wanted to put 5 to get more attention on it. But DO NOTTT EAT HERE. I got campylobacter and astrovirus after eating here…I spent 10 hours in the emergency room because of it. So please please do not put yourself through the chances of getting sick because it’s awful. Just search “el jefes health rating” and it’ll show exactly how and why…
