We don’t eat out often but, when my husband and I want a quick date night or to grab some Mexican food to eat at home, we ALWAYS choose El Jefe! I usually order a veggie burrito and a cucumber drink with chamoy on the inside of the cup so it doesn’t leak on the long drive home. Their tortillas are huge and the burritos are incredibly filling!

Had to microwave my food at home because the cheese wasn’t even melted and meat was cold so there was just solid grease in my food. Not a good experience. I was also the only one there so I didn’t see why they rushed me my food so fast but now I know why…

Best taco truck spot in Vancouver!! I always get the birria tacos which are so delicious, and it comes with radish, carrot, and you can ask for free sauces on the side. It’s super affordable, and they even have Taco Tuesdays where the tacos are $2!! There’s also seating with umbrellas. 10/10 would recommend, I’ll come back here next time I’m in Vancouver!! love this place

This spot brings it with the Birria! It’s a food cart that implements birria into almost everything. Do they have your traditional fare? Of course. But, who wouldn’t want a Wet Birria burrito. It’s a trip to flavor town with every bite! If youre in the Vancouver area and looking for a quick bite of some boss food, El Jefe is where it’s at.

I got 2 different kinds of tacos and nachos from there and they were delicious. They have a good assortment of options. Ill definitely go back again and try more of their options. Staff was also very nice.

Had went and someone training messed up on my order, it ended up being better than what I had actually ordered so I went back the next night and asked for two of whatever it was she had accidentally given me the night before and ended up spending more than 30$ on two messy burritos that were nothing like the night before my son and I had to get a plate to eat over juice was pouring outta it and beans were all on the ends of the burritos outside tortilla. Worst experience prob won’t go back.

I absolutely love this taco truck! Every time I stop by, the food is fresh, flavorful, and made with so much care. Their tacos are some of the best I’ve ever had—perfectly seasoned, authentic, and always delicious. On top of that, the people who run the truck are incredibly kind and welcoming. They treat every customer like family, and it makes the whole experience even better. Highly recommend this spot to anyone looking for amazing food and genuinely good people!

El Jefe Birria & Tacos is an absolute must-visit if you love authentic Mexican food and bold, rich flavors. From the first bite, you can tell that the food is made with care and real passion. The aroma alone pulls you in, and the experience only gets better from there.
The birria tacos are the star of the menu — perfectly crispy on the outside, tender and juicy on the inside, and packed with deep, savory flavor. Dipping them into the rich, flavorful consommé takes everything to the next level. The meat is slow-cooked to perfection, well-seasoned, and incredibly satisfying. Every bite feels comforting and authentic.
The menu offers great variety, with tacos, quesabirria, and other options that are all consistently delicious. Portions are generous, prices are fair, and the food always comes out hot and fresh. Their salsas add the perfect amount of spice and freshness to balance the richness of the birria.
Service is friendly, welcoming, and efficient. The staff is happy to answer questions and make recommendations, which makes the experience even better. The atmosphere is relaxed and inviting, making it a great spot for a casual meal with friends or family.
Overall, El Jefe Birria & Tacos delivers amazing food, authentic flavors, and great service every time. Highly recommended for anyone craving real birria and some of the best tacos around — I’ll definitely be back!

Just ordered a chicken quesadilla and I’m sure I chose the protein of chicken on the screen. Got home, it’s cheese. Called, they said I ordered a cheese with extra cheese quesadilla and wouldn’t correct it. I definitely chose a protein. The taco and the rice and beans were good but $20 lesson learned to not go back there. Not really because of their error but because of poor customer service.

So good! I’ve ordered through DoorDash but eating it fresh was an experience! I ordered the quesabirria— this is a quesadilla with loads of steak, cilantro, and onions. I ordered the consome as well, it 1.99 for 6 oz. I also had the horchata and my boyfriend had the quesatacos, he had 4 and they were 3.99 each. I would recommend this to everyone
