My partner and I went right when El Jefe opened around 5 PM. We were greeted and seated quickly. Our server was also quick. He was friendly and attentive to our requests.

We decided to eat at El Jefe’s Cantina at Circus Circus at the Row in Reno. I ended eating the Quesabirria (Braised Beef Shortribs, Asadero Cheese, Chopped White Onions, Cilantro And a Delicious Consommé). My wife opted for the Chicken Fajita which came on a Sizzling Platter and Flour Tortillas. Ohhh Boy…Both Plates were DELICIOUS!!! Also, our Server, “Mitchell C.” Was OUTSTANDING!!! Highly Recommended!!!
Excellent food but expect long waits for both seats and service. This restaurant is located inside one of the large casinos in Reno and is easy to access. It’s located in the second floor and has spread out seating as well as a centrally located bar. No outdoor seating due to it being inside a casino. Food here was excellent! They have a limited but delicious offering of various Mexican dishes and cocktails. The food was well prepared and delicious. The cocktails were well prepared and had enough liquor to justify the cost.... read more
They accommodated our large group of 11 with only a short wait. We received good service from our waiter. We were a little bummed that we had to pay for chips and salsa, as most local places provide them for free. Dinner and drinks were good. Good ambiance.
