" What can I say? Tacos El Viejon is simply awesome! The variety of tacos available is impressive, and I love that they make their tortillas on-site. The atmosphere is fun and vibrant. It feels like a slice of Mexico! I’ll definitely recommend Tacos El Viejon to my friends and family. " (*Curated Review*)

" Visited for dinner and while the ambience was cozy, the noise level was a bit higher than expected. The tacos were good, but I believe they could pick up on the authenticity aspect for some of the recipes. Nevertheless, the service was friendly and fast which made up for it a bit. " (*Curated Review*)

" I have to say, Tacos El Viejon is a gem for taco lovers. The employees are welcoming and eager to help with menu recommendations. The tacos were bursting with flavor - I especially enjoyed their spicy salsa options! The atmosphere is casual but could use more decor to make it feel cozier. Overall, I left satisfied. " (*Curated Review*)

" Had a great experience overall but also faced some issues. The service was friendly and attentive, but I waited a bit longer for my tacos than expected. When they arrived, I loved the tortillas, but the amount of filling was not as generous as I imagined. I'd still recommend them for their authenticity but think they need to work on the speed of service. " (*Curated Review*)

" As someone who loves Mexican food, I truly appreciate the authenticity of what Tacos El Viejon offers. From the moment you walk in, you can smell the fresh tortillas being made. I had their huevos rancheros for breakfast and it was the best I’ve had! The service was quick, and the atmosphere is cozy. One thing I would suggest is to improve on the cleanliness of the restrooms, as that left a slightly negative impression. I will definitely return to try their lunch menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" The experience at Tacos El Viejon was mostly great! The service was top-notch; our server was friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. I ordered the birria tacos, which were flavorful but not as authentic as I had hoped. I think they've catered some of the flavors to a more general audience. Still, the handmade tortillas and fresh ingredients were a nice touch! I’ll go back but may explore other options on the menu next time. " (*Curated Review*)

" I feel that Tacos El Viejon has become one of my favorite taco joints! Their variety of tacos is fantastic, and the ingredients taste fresh. The ambiance is laid back and comfortable. It’s perfect for a casual dinner with friends or family. My personal favorite is the carne asada taco. On my last visit, the service was quick and friendly, and I appreciated the generous portions for the price. Highly recommend if you’re in the area! " (*Curated Review*)
