" Disappointing meals at Taqueria El Viejon have made me question my choice to return. I had high hopes based on previous visits, but the carne asada tacos I ordered were dry and bland. While the service was nice, I can't ignore the lack of flavor in the dishes. Maybe I just caught them on an off day, but I'm hesitant to try again. On a positive note, their fresh salsa was pretty good. " (*Curated Review*)

" I visited Taqueria El Viejon last week, and my experience was a mixed bag. Found the meal decent but not spectacular. I tried the carne asada, which was okay but could have been marinated longer for better flavor. However, the service was attentive, and the ambiance was cozy. I might come back to explore other menu items. " (*Curated Review*)

" I stumbled across Taqueria El Viejon on my way home and I'm so glad I did! The carne asada tacos were perfectly seasoned and the tortillas were so fresh. The staff was incredibly friendly, welcoming me like family. I honestly can't wait to return, especially for their horchata, which was refreshing and not overly sweet. This is definitely my new go-to taco spot in the area! " (*Curated Review*)

" Fantastic tacos! Tried beef and chicken and each was bursting with flavor! The staff were attentive and super nice; they really made my dining experience enjoyable. Clean as well – loved the atmosphere! I can’t remember the last time I enjoyed tacos so much. Highly recommend Taqueria El Viejon for a quick bite! " (*Curated Review*)

" I absolutely loved my experience at Taqueria El Viejon! The atmosphere is friendly, and it's a no-frills taco shop which I appreciate. I ordered the tripas tacos, and they were the best I've had in a long time – crunchy and flavorful. The staff treated us like family, making it an all-around wonderful experience. I can’t recommend this place enough for anyone looking for real Mexican street food! " (*Curated Review*)

" If you want a taco that reminds you of those found in Mexico, Taqueria El Viejon is the right place. The tortillas are handmade and have the fresh taste I’ve been searching for. The team behind the counter were professional and made our meal that much more gratifying. I’ll certainly be recommending this place to my friends! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family decided to check out Taqueria El Viejon after hearing great things, and we were not disappointed! The carne asada burrito was gigantic – perfect for sharing. The flavor was spot on; you could taste the quality of the meat and seasonings. The only downside was the wait time, but the welcoming staff made it worth it. Can't wait to try their tacos next time.
