" Pueblo Viejo has become a staple for our family dinners. The ambiance is inviting, with vibrant decorations that really set the mood for enjoying authentic Mexican fare. I particularly love their pollo loco—perfectly seasoned and served with a generous helping of rice and beans. Every visit has been enjoyable thanks to the attentive servers who go out of their way to ensure a pleasant dining experience. Highly recommended for anyone looking to indulge in delicious Mexican cuisine! " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Pueblo Viejo last week and it was everything I had hoped for and more. The chicken enchiladas were bursting with flavor and the side of refried beans was the best I've ever had. The atmosphere was lively yet cozy, and I was impressed with the friendly staff who made sure we felt welcome. This is definitely my new favorite spot for Mexican food! " (*Curated Review*)

" This place has become a family favorite! We love the huevos rancheros for brunch and the margaritas are always refreshing. The staff’s service continues to be excellent, and we leave feeling like we got our money's worth every time we visit. " (*Curated Review*)

" My experience at Pueblo Viejo was less than stellar. The food was alright, but everything felt very bland and repetitive. The sopapillas were nice, but I was hoping for more of a kick in flavor. The service was fine, but it felt like we were left unattended for too long. I'm not sure if I'd come back, as I'm searching for more exciting flavors elsewhere. " (*Curated Review*)
