Great food however extremely slow service and mediocre pricing schemes

Oct 6, 2018
I had been wanting to try this place for awhile now. It was a good experience, the complimentary chips and salsa were a nice touch. I had the enchiladas (with both green and red sauce) they were very very tasty and not too spicy. (Green sauce was preferred!) My dining partner had steak fajitias which were well cooked and flavourful. They also have a drink menu, we had a margarita and a beer. Service was great, the atmosphere/decor/furniture could use some work. All in all I will definitely be back! Great to have some authentic Mexican cuisine in the Cape!

We stumbled on El Jefe by accident making a wrong turn in Sydney and we are glad we did. Great little spot serving amazing traditional Mexican food, like the sign says "Mexican food so authentic Donald Trump would build a wall around it" and the food didn't disappoint, happy hour meant $5 margaritas and ice cold bottles of Sol, amazing mix of flavors in the enchiladas, you can tell everything was made to order, nothing processed, with a decent amount of heat in the food. The ambiance was perfect for a Mexican restaurant, well decorated, only reason it didn't get 5 stars is because the service was a bit slow with only 1 server handling 6-8 tables, other than that a fantastic hidden gem.
