El Hefe

OK if you’re looking for your typical Mexican restaurant, this is not it. If you are looking for Mexican food with a twist, then this is it. Everything was delicious and the service was great! We will go back.

Creative twist on authentic Mexican cuisine. The artwork is absolutely breathtaking and was done by a muralist from Mexico City. The cocktails are delicious and reasonably priced. I’ve eaten here twice in the last two weeks! The chef and owner are so friendly and kind. The servers and bartenders are very friendly and checked in regularly. I was also there for live music from a wonderful local artist named Tyler Jenkins.

It so sad to see negative feedback for a wonderful restaurant because people expected their version of Mexican food..

We all know when a restaurant is new its a little bumpy to start. That can Def be said about this place. My boyfriend and I stopped in on a Friday night (being new and Friday) I expected a little wait. We sat at the bar and just ended up ordering food there. We ordered the salsa trio, and the cheese dip to start. The salsa trio came out first and pretty quick. I can't say I liked it at all..as you can see in my picture the one "salsa" was more like a Chilli oil rub, it tasted liked dried peppers, it was chalky in texture..I think it would of made a great marinade or add to the cheese dip. The verda was like water it did not stick to the chip so really was not a salsa just a sauce. The third one was Def more of a salsa but nothing remarkable. As for the cheese dip could not say..it never came, even though we asked about it twice. It was removed from the bill. I ordered the three taco meal. Three two bite tacos, 1/4 cup or rice and beans for 18.99. Super pricey. The rice and beans had no flavor! The shrimp taco was battered but was to thick and came off chewy. The pastor taco wasn't bad but I miss the traditional onion and cilantro..the pineapple made it soggy causing the shell to become gummy. Barbacco basic no real flavor. My boyfriend got the burrito it was pretty full and even though it has both the beans and rice in it, they still gave some on the side. His was the best bang for the buck at 12.99. Over all two people chips and salsa (which you get free every where else) 3 tacos one burrito 3 beers and it was 78 with the tip...way way to much!!!

The food is AMAZING! The margaritas are FANTASTIC! The service is EXCEPTIONAL! The atmosphere is new, hip and comfortable.

I just found my new favorite restaurant.

Bravo to team El Hefe!!!!
