" Such a delightful place! The atmosphere is alive during dinner service, making for a welcoming vibe. I had the pork tacos, which were nice but I do wish there was a bit more spice in them. The service was attentive, and our server always made sure we were taken care of. I would give this a go again, especially since the elote was highly recommended by others. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a lovely evening at Jefe! The outdoor seating was charming, and the atmosphere was festive. Our orders included the ceviche and corn on the cob, both of which were outstanding. However, my shrimp tacos were underwhelming, lacking seasoning. Our server was lovely and attentive, always checking in on us. Next time, I will try something else on the menu as the vibe was definitely worth returning for! " (*Curated Review*)

" A very fun dining experience! Jefe has a great ambiance that really sets the mood; perfect for a lively night out! I ordered the duck tostadas, which were intriguing and delicious! My friends had the steak fajitas, and they looked amazing as well. The margaritas were refreshing, but I felt they could have a bit more kick. Overall, I would definitely come back for the vibrant atmosphere and unique food! " (*Curated Review*)

" We were excited to try Jefe, and we ended up loving it! The ambiance is lively and cozy, perfect for a meet-up with friends. Each drink we ordered was excellent. The highlight for us was undoubtedly the shrimp ceviche—it was fresh and had a kick of lime that just hit the spot. The only gripe we had was with the portion sizes; they were on the smaller side, but quality was great. Would definitely return! " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited Jefe Urban Cocina after hearing great things about it. The atmosphere was inviting, and we promptly got seated outside. It wasn't particularly busy when we arrived. I ordered the carne asada tacos and was blown away by the flavor and juiciness. Unfortunately, my friend ordered the chicken tacos and found them pretty dry. Service was attentive, and I appreciate that they had a solid drink menu with some interesting cocktail options. Overall, I had a great experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a pleasant time at Jefe but did not walk away feeling wowed like others have mentioned. The chicken fajitas were decent but lacked seasoning for my taste. I felt the restaurant was a bit noisy, which made it hard to have conversations. On the plus side, our server was very kind and the margaritas were refreshing! I might consider coming back, but it might be for drinks rather than dinner next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" Love this restaurant! The food is always fantastic; I had the shrimp tacos which have just the right amount of kick to them. The atmosphere is vibrant and fun, making it ideal for a lunch out with friends or a dinner date. The service is prompt, and the wait staff is super friendly. I recommend trying the house margarita as well! " (*Curated Review*)
