Reviews for El Jefe's Cantina Tahoe in Stateline, NV
I choose 0 star if I could. The quality of the taco was horrible.the beef was burnt, the beans and rice was cold.I complained to... the manager and he was rude, he didn’t apologize and had bad attitude. He deducted the cost of 2 tacos that we ate, horribleexperience with this restaurant. Read more
Went there on a Thursday evening. Hardly anyone in the place which did not give me a warm and fuzzy feeling. Long story... short.......we walked out. They do not offer any combination plates. No hard shell tacos. $17 + for margarita\'s. In 40+ yearswe\'ve never been to a Mexican restaurant that does not offer combo plates. Hard pass for us. There are some great Mexicanrestaurants in S. Lake Tahoe....which is where we went and spent out money. UPDATE 10/20/2022. I see the owner responded and Irespect that. I do not like giving negative reviews, ever. But.....as a business owner you should know how customes feel. Yourcurrent menu is unlike ANY Mexican restaurant we have ever been to in 60 years. Not having \"combination\" plates makes no senseto most people I imagine. Hopefully you might modify the menu to be a little more \"typical\" as many people expect combinationplates at a Mexican restaurant. Cheers! Read more
Food was amazing and service the best. I don’t know why it has bad reviews. We were debating on going because of the reviews... but let me tell you it was bomb im Mexican and so picky with my meat, but it was fire. People complain on the prices and let metell you now days nothing is cheap and this food was not expensive for what you get. Hands down ???????? Read more
Party of 7. Sept 30th. Here\'s the experience. Us: \"How is the so and so dish.\" Waitress: \"Good if you like so and so.\" ... Us: \"how about the Crispy Taco Bowl?\" Waitress: \"Good if you like taco bowls.\" As our party got up to leave she waspassively aggressively charming for the first time when said - \"have a lovely evening.\" She just had to get that final jabin. And to think servers and wait staff demand we support a minimum wage increase. Serving is easy folks. You bring stuff fromover there to over here - attitude free. You accept a low wage from the owner and have an expectation that the customers willchip in where ownership fails. That\'s the job description. That is not hard. Read more

Went here for dinner with the family. To start off the service was subpar throughout the night with it taking over 20 minutes... from seating us just to get our drink orders. Next up we ordered some chips and salsa which ended up being nearly inedible withhow overly stale they were. The only reason this is even getting two stars at this point is because the main dish itself endedup being pretty tasty if I were to ignore the underwhelming sides it was served with. Read more
Cool place, food super good (I am mexican ) the portions are huge. The street corn my fav, the Birria plate was delicious as... well as the pork belly tacos. The diferent types of beans was a nice touch , rice is not the typical rice you eat in a regularMexican restaurant here in USA. The two things to improve is tortillas, bc they were cold and they break so I couldn\'t make mea taco from the Birria and the music , come on ! It\'s a Mexican restaurant put mariachi no Dua Lipa. I will try it at nightwhen they transform the place into a club. Read more
Terrible bar service. Strawberry & mint “infused” tequila margarita tasted like simple lime mix and they served me a bottle... beer with an old expiration date on it! Fish tacos “a La plancha” were breaded instead of grilled. Read more
