El Jefe Birria NORTHERN QUARTER

El Jefes is an absolute gem inside Mala on Dame Street. If you’re craving some Mexican comfort food, this is the spot. The birria tacos are the star of the show - cheesy, flavour-packed and served with a rich consommé that takes them to the next level.

The burritos are stuffed with Mexican rice, creamy guac, pico de gallo and gooey melted cheese, and the rice bowls are a brilliant option if you’re skipping the tortilla - loaded with tender meat, rice and a smoky chipotle kick.

Every dish I tried was fresh, delicious and made with care. The team here really know what they’re doing. Highly recommend checking them out if you’re in Manchester, you won’t be disappointed!

We ordered 2 beef birria tacos and a chicken birria enchilada.
They tasted ok but not birria. Had more of an Italian / bolognese taste than it did Mexican.
Birria dip was more of an oily watery gravy rather than a thick, meaty sauce.
Salsa was nice.
Also, enchiladas had way too many onions which were rather unnecessary.

Always worth a try but Quite disappointing really.

I had to wait a long time for my food about 20 minutes.  Was very very very good.  I know I said a lot of times, but it was.  Great flavours, great textures well done.  I will be back as it may have actually been worth the weight.

Best tacos in town fresh tasty and full of flavour🌮

Good tasty food, little expensive but nevertheless fresh and flavourful.
