I ordered 1 pastor, 1 chicken and 1 barbacoa taco... wow!

My wife ordered a pastor quesadilla that was also stuffed with meat and great cheese, came with the onions and a side of rice, the beans. It smelled so good we didn't even wait to get home... will be back there soon.

Amazing food. Very glad we tried it. Price is high, so can't have it often- but still a great meal.read more

The corn tortillas are very crispy and greasy, as expected, and the meat was very tender and cheesy. I enjoy the array of sauces and toppings that are brought out with the tacos.

It's Pearland so parking won't be a problem. After perusing the menu, I couldn't say no to the pizzadilla. I'll be back to that in the moment. Service (4.5/5): Pretty much what you hope for. A seamless ordering experience, the food was ready when promised, and no issues arose. One thing I like is that they go above and beyond in providing you with extra limes, and a generous heap of onions, cilantro, and veggies. Ambiance (3/5): Pretty much a standard small Mexican taco joint. Nothing to write home about. Drinks (4.5/5): I love agua frescas and they have them here with 3-4 flavors to choose from. I went with a large pepino (cucumber) agua fresca. Delicious and refreshing. Food (3/5): This is interesting. The pizzadilla sounded amazing. Think of it as a huge quesadilla of sorts, served in a pizza box You can choose your meat. Naturally, I went with the birria which is served with a generous portion of consome. All sounds good, right? Here's where things fell apart. The quesadilla had an overwhelming amount of cheese and an underwhelming amount of birria meat. This is coming from a guy who absolutely loves cheese and feels like it makes anything better. I think this is the first time in my life I'm saying otherwise. There was so much cheese that it overpowered the dish and you could barely taste the birria. Which shouldn't be the case as the meat is the star of the show. Maybe the kitchen made a mistake. Or maybe their ratio is highly off on this dish. Either way, disappointing as I thought this spot would crush it.

This review has great energy--you just need it tightened and cleaned 1000 dé cinco estrellas!…read more We visited El Jefe Pollo Asados (620 Nassau Rd in Webster) after a long day of touristy activities, exhausted, with a group of seven--including picky kids. We had so many restaurant options but chose this place because of the high ratings... and I'm so glad we did. I'll be honest--when we first arrived, I wasn't impressed with the outside or the area. I was a little hesitant going in. But the moment we walked through the doors, everything changed. The place felt welcoming, the staff was friendly and attentive, and the atmosphere--yes, a little loud--but in a good way. It's that lively Mexican vibe: music, micheladas, carne asada... all of it. We were just tired, so I think I noticed it more. Now let's talk about the food... I ordered the Maestro Plate but swapped the meat for short rib costillas--and OH. MY. GOSH. These were hands down some of the best costillas I've ever had. Juicy, tender, packed with flavor. I cleaned those bones completely--every single bite. The dish was served with perfectly grilled "nopales" and queso panela, que ricura! Ahhh, and of course the charro beans and rice that I barely made a dent in. The portions? HUGE. Two of us shared one plate and still had leftovers--and we can eat! Now this part says everything: my grandson, who is on the spectrum and very picky, ordered pollo asado... and he tore into it. No complaints, no hesitation--he finished his entire plate. That alone speaks volumes. My daughter had the birria (and she's a birria critic), and even she couldn't finish her plate because of how generous the portion was--but she said it was full of flavor and really good. My older grandson (big growing boy with an equally big appetite) had a birria quesadilla--again, huge portion--and even he couldn't finish it, which never happens. To top it all off, the owner surprised us with a complimentary dessert--warm, soft, pillowy sopapillas with whipped cream and chocolate drizzle. The kids were FULL... and still devoured every last bite. Not a crumb left. And let's talk about pricing... honey. Compared to Austin? This was a steal. I was honestly shocked at how affordable it was for the quality and portion sizes. Amazing food, generous portions, great service, and a place that turned my hesitation into loyalty. They've earned our business--100%. We will absolutely be back next time we're in town.

They also offer a 'Say What combo' where you can choose 2 tacos, a side and a drink for around $15 I believe.

Highly recommend others try out this little gem. The service time is reasonable and the ambiance is a chill taco vibe inside, great for a casual meal. Try it! You'll love it!

The man who took my order knew that y'all did not have any, but didn't mention it, and then when I got my order and brought it up to the counter to point that out, he said "oh we just sold out". I said, it's on the menu that it comes with the taco. It's one of the flavor points of the taco. That's the only reason I ordered those particular tacos. And it happens every single time that they're out. The associate said "we're not gonna buy five boxes of them and then not use them" which is a crappy response to not having something that is on the menu, and not telling someone until after you hand them the order, that you don't have part of the ingredients for the items you ordered. It's pretty uncool giving a super negative energy response to someone who is pointing out that you didn't give them a correct order, because for the fifth time of visiting this location, they do not have ingredients for the items on the menu.

The chips and sauces are mediocre at best, and nothing stood out to me. Overall, I wouldn't come here again. I ordered the brisket tacos with flour tortillas, and they were alright. The taco was only filled with brisket, red onions, and one slice of avocado. It also didn't have any lettuce like the dish description said it did. In addition, it was supposed to come with rice and beans, no beans spotted here. The brisket was dry, and the BBQ sauce (I was supposed to choose between habanero or BBQ sauce, didn't have a choice...) did not make a difference. The taco was flat and didn't have a lot of flavor. I don't think I'll be returning.
