Birrieria El Jefe - Food Trucks Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

I was craving some tacos and this popped up on my search. It's a very small establishment with counter ordering. My order was taken immediately upon arrival and received within 5 minutes or so. I ordered the quesatacos which come with 4 tacos and consome. All were freshly made and overall really good! read more

I ordered 6 quesa birria tacos. The red sauce that was on the corn tortilla was not the correct sauce. It was only have dipped in the red sauce . Taco was cold and therefore the cheese did not melt read more

Delicious, delicious, delicious!!!! Quesabirrias tacos, birria ramen, and birria torta of love!!! Wow, these meals were delicious. Perfect seasoning, perfect meat, and perfect cheese. And I can't forget the star of the show: consumme!!! It was packed full of flavor. This place is a gem and local. It's a real diamond, and the service was impeccable! It's small inside, but it has a big personality when it comes to all things birria. The husband enjoyed the ramen. It had tapatio flavoring. My quesabirrias came four in a pack. It was just enough to fill me up with lime, cilantro, and onions on the side! It cans with two sensational salsas. I have a torta, and I can't wait to dig in! Thank you read more

Place was decently clean, no napkins on any tables, and found hair in the birria torta but other than that the salsas were good.

El Jefe is a must try for birria. Teenager approved. Good portions and flavor at a good price. Small dining room but good enough to enjoy your tacos. Just know that the menu is Birria-centric and there is nothing wrong with that. Support your local restaurant read more

Small place with about 6 little tables but the food is BOMB! I was craving Barria ramen and this place did not disappoint! I got the regular (not the spicy) ramen and the flavor was EVERYTHING , cilantro, purple onion, lime and the best flavors. The rest of the family got the quesatacos and the tacos were full, they load these things up, and the consome perfect! All drinks are in cans or bottles, everything is priced basic and fair, average of about $11 per item which again is very fair given the quality. Great food! We will definitely be back. read more

For the first time since this spot has been opened I was not satisfied the communication between the restaurant location and food truck is poor I placed an order and it was all wrong... food truck people said "the restaurant women did not tell me that" pretty expensive order to get wrong... unacceptable... read more

So the bad reviews are all old and go back to their food truck days. Current location isn't fancy but the people are super nice and the birria tacos are awesome. Servings are super generous. My wife and I split the quesabirria which was four tacos with broth. The salsas are delicious. Considering the serving size I think it's a great value. All in and including tip we spent $20 with drinks. Did I mention how nice they are? Looks like a family operation. Going after the American Dream. I hope they are successful! BTW their liquor permit is still pending but there is a liquor store next door that will sell you a cerveza if you like! read more

First and foremost, the young lady working the front of the restaurant was very kind and patient because of a language barrier...but we got it figured out and she guided me to the best birria queso tacos I've had in a very long time. It's close to base so my to all of my Battle Buddies out there, give this place a try...you won't be disappointed. read more

The best tacos in town ,the salsa was so good we tried the birria quesadilla and the quesatacos are the best and the consomé is the perfect touch for them, and the service excellent,definitely we recommend this place read more

The birria ramen was so flavorful and filling. It had enough meat to allow some in every bite. I also loved that they serve the Birria Quesatacos with the cilantro and onions on the side so that you can customize it to your preference. For dessert, we had the Agua de Sandia watermelon drink that is perfect for any summer day!! read more

Amazing place! The food is so delicious and mouthwatering! And the agua frescas are amazing! They're a good size and totally worth it.

The torta was out of the world!!! Soooo good and she service was on point! I also had the Clamato we amazing and fresh!

The place was clean and easy to locate, there is parking. The service was good and the tacos were good as well.

I believe this place is new so I decided to give them a try. The tacos were solid. it was a bit crispy like what you would expect but overall it wasn't the most flavorful. The salsas were solid as well. If it weren't for the price of one single order being $12 then it would've definitely been 4 star. read more

The food is amazing and I was extremely suprised by all the flavor. And you have to try the agua Fresca both de fresa y piña tambien. This place is a San Antonio staple for me and my friends. read more

The food was so delicious me and my boyfriend absolutely loved how flavorful the birria was. And the customer service was impeccable, very friendly and welcoming. Surprisingly very empty and only 6 tables inside but the service was quick. We will definitely be back. read more

This place is wack. Bring a bag of cheese. They ask you if you want cheese when you get the birria taco, if you say yes, they'll charge $3, call it quesatacos and use mozzarella. Why mozzarella? Idk read more

I thought the third time would be a charm, instead it was the complete opposite. I found this place by accident on Instagram and honestly if i could give them no stars i would have. It literally took them 45 minutes to get my food out which quite honestly had no taste. The two previous times i came to try to check it out they were sold out from the quesibirria and birria in general, that should have been my first clue to walk away. However, I insisted on giving this place a try! I got an agua fresca de piña and my cup was only HALF FULL AND IT WAS AWFUL!!! Will not be returning read more

They do not make Birria tacos right. No sauce, no flavor, no seasoning, the meat doesn't even have the juice or broth from meat and the sauce they do give you on the side is not good at all. You can tell they just batch make this and it is not fresh. They used to be good but have really slacked. read more

YO I THOUGHT YALLS TACOS WERE ABSOLUTELY AMAZING!!! I do wish y'all were open more late night like maybe till 11 or 1030 or something but still super awesome tacos P.S...let the haters hate and keep doing yalls thing read more

We've been wanting to try this out since siempre sanantonio posted it in TikTok. We went yesterday and the Parking lot was full, the wait was over an hour which I thought was ridiculous but understandable as they had so many ahead of. The young lady at the window took our phone number and order and she texted us 15 min before our order was ready. We were able to run some errands and came back to our warm food being ready. The wait was totally worth it, the Birria ramen was on point and the flavor just right. The salsa verde was my favorite mixed in the consome. Don't forget to try their agua de fresa, it reminds me of the ones they sell in Mexico. Over all my family and I had a great experience. Staff was friendly, food was delicious and the agua de fresa was my favorite part of the meal. 9.5/10 Will definitely be back soon. read more

Birrieria El Jefe - Order of the quesitacos - Food Trucks Near Me - San Antonio, Texas

So my girl found this place on Instagram, and the place looked absolutely good. But looks can be deceiving. Anyways we came a couple of times before and they were sold out of the main thing they sell, the Birria. How do you close at 8, but run out of your main dish by 5? But anyways we came once again, with low expectations of getting the dish, and we finally got it. Yes!!! Well almost an hour later, the food came out. Yes you read that right, an hour for a food truck. Anyways I tried one of their fresh juices, because they looked super good online, but they were horrible. No flavor, it's only about half full, and the fruit on top wasn't good either. The food was ok but not good enough for an hour long wait. The quesadilla was ok, I think it was mostly the cheese that made it taste good to be honest. My girl who is a fan of birria, said it isn't the best she's had, but not the worst either. So I'm gonna go out and say this place is all social media hype, but no delivery. I won't be coming back here anytime soon, if I ever come back it will be for the orange taco truck besides they who had delicious tacos with savory flavor and a great staff, unlike the ones at this place. read more

Idk what these other reviews are but this was good! Liked it WAY better than el remedio. Plus they aren't stingy with the meat! Everything was fresh and salsas were fire read more

Love the briia tacos! The hot sauce is fire. I'm obsessed with this place. I wish they would open before 12:30 on weekdays so I can take some to work read more

Love this food truck . They just happened to be right there as I was looking for some place to eat. Fortunately everything was closed, so I randomly found their truck on the side of the road. Everyone was super nice, especially the nice Lady owner! Their street tacos are by far the best I've ever had! Will be going back every chance I get. read more
