El Jefe Cafe - San Clemente

Went here because it looked like a chill spot. Totally impressed. The food was delicious and the family and staff here are so nice like literally the most welcoming and happy people around. For reals. Definitely recommend and will be back for another Cubano for sure.

First time here. Won't be the last. This place is a gem. I'm a vegetarian so it can be hit and miss with Mexican food for me. But this place has the best tasting tostada I ever had! With cooked mushroom, potatoes, onions...and their pico de gallo is delicious! Genuine authentic Mexican food. Staff is extremely nice and attentive. If I close my eyes, almost feels like I'm in Mexico!! 10 out of 10. Would recommend to anyone. Boyfriends tacos were amazing as well, if you like meat ?

Great local Mexican restaurant!!! Love the fish and chips ?.. comes with fries , coleslaw and tarter sauce , limón.. Great place to sit and eat , beer on tap and the micheladas are good.. Also love the chicken torta shredded chicken ?.. All in all nothing but good things to say about El Jefe .. 5 star on my book .. Only thing that I would change would be playing some Mexican music at a reasonable volume to hype up the place .. just a suggestion ?

Very rude! Wasn’t even parked in the parking lot and was going somewhere else, just happened to walk through it, some cook comes out from there yelling…I mean yelling at my husband and I that we can’t park there unless we were going there. We explained that we aren’t even parked in this parking lot he was talking about, and he was still yelling at us. Thought about maybe trying it out sometime but definitely won’t now.

We ordered two breakfast burritos. They were good and I've had better. The price was right and the service was fast.
