About this business

Get ready to embark on a culinary journey to Mexico at the El Vez restaurant.

This is seriously the best Mexican restaurant I've EVER been to! We had the nacho mamma, bazooka limon guacamole, queso fundido de hongas (truffled mushrooms & cheese), and roasted brussels sprouts (1st time I've ever liked Brussels sprouts). Every single dish was absolutely, amazingly delicious! I also loved the soft, red velvet tufted circular booths which really added to the ambience - very comfortable too. I am not from Philadelphia, and I really wish El Vez would open a location in the DC suburbs in MD!!!

My mahi tacos were fantastic and i ordered the Brussel spouts that were a perfect compliment. The El Vez margaritas were so refreshing for the 87 degrees evening ! Such a tasty spot with a fun city vibe
