About El Jefe's Taqueria
El Jefe's Taqueria is a taqueria, so expect a short, meat-forward menu, corn tortillas, and salsas made in house rather than a broad sit-down Mexican menu. It sits in Boston (02116), MA, independently run.
There is no star rating on file for El Jefe's Taqueria yet, so it is ranked here on how taco-focused it is (a taqueria scores above a general restaurant) and how complete its public listing is, not on reviews.
If a trompo is turning, order al pastor. Otherwise asada or carnitas is the safe read. Ask for everything con todo and work the salsa bar.
It runs late, which makes it a solid after-hours option when the sit-down places have closed.
It is on Boylston Street in Boston. Use the Directions button for turn-by-turn.
From its public listing: takeout, delivery, wheelchair accessible, vegetarian options and air conditioning.
Call ahead or check the map listing before a special trip. Small taquerias change hours often, and our data refreshes on a schedule, not live.
In our Boston taco guide, El Jefe's Taqueria is ranked #3 of 50, by taco specialisation and listing completeness. How we rank.
