About El Vez

As bright and boisterous as a joy ride in a Tijuana taxi, El Vez exudes fun at every conceivable turn. The flashy, frenetic Latin decor, featuring high-backed velvet Hollywood booths and an eye-popping low-rider bike elevated above the dining room, creates the perfect conditions for memorable food and drink. Unexpected interpretations of Mexican classics join traditional cooking on the expansive menu, complemented by a bar that boasts one of the biggest tequila selections β€” and the best margaritas β€” in the city. Striking the ideal balance between a south-of-the-border celebration and a hot and flashy Las Vegas blowout, El Vez is the embodiment of Mex-Eclectic spirit.

The food at El Vez Philadelphia was absolutely delicious! Everything was fresh, flavorful, and beautifully presented, with a great variety of Mexican-inspired dishes. The flavors were rich and well balanced, and every bite was enjoyable. Definitely a great place to visit if you’re looking for delicious food in Philadelphia!

Excellent place in the heart of the city. Went here off a recommendation from a friend and it did not disappoint. A very vibrant and unique atmosphere, which was loud but not enough to not be able to hear my counterparts. The staff were very friendly, and enjoyed a bit of banter that my friend had. We all got various margaritas. The highlights were the frozen spicy pineapple and the golden gloves. They all had amazing flavor! I got the taco sampler with 5 different tacos on it. They were all very good and flavorful. It was great having different variations to pick and choose from. The mahi mahi and the carnitas ended up being my favorites.

Some places are old ye faithfuls for a reason and that can be said about El Vez. I’ve been coming here now for the better part of two decades ever since I was living in Philly as an undergrad. I was lookin for solid options for my quick 36 hours back in my old hometown and this could not have been a more clutch pick. Centrally located right downtown, open and sizable space including a seemingly always bumping bar, and the best food, drinks and service you could ask for. The servers made nothing of a cranky toddler who was with us at the table for as long as the kid and dad could put up with it. The area has changed a lot since I started going here and has only gotten nicer with all of Philadelphia buzzing around.

Recommended by the hotel, easy walk from city center. Felt welcomed, seated quickly Excellent service, kind and professional. Drinks came quickly and felt no pressure to order. Guacamole - many types , had originall, very good. Chunky but watch out - very filling. Corn empanadas were really good - great sauce too. Shared taco platter - really nice presentation and tasted great too. Extensive tequila menu also. Would definitely return
