About

Tacos and beer El Viejon delivers an authentic Mexican culinary experience centered on traditional street-style preparation methods. The menu features an extensive selection of tacos adorned with marinated meats, fresh cilantro, onions, and house-made salsas that balance heat with deep savory notes. A curated rotation of craft and international beers complements the charred, smoky flavors emerging from the grill. Patrons encounter a focused environment where the preparation of corn tortillas and flame-grilled proteins takes center stage. This establishment prioritizes ingredient quality and the consistent execution of classic regional recipes. The straightforward approach ensures that each dish maintains its integrity while providing a robust exploration of bold, spice-forward profiles. Every plate serves as a testament to the fundamental elements of Mexican grilling traditions and the vibrant beverage culture that accompanies them.

Très belle expérience! La nourriture est toujours aussi bonne & le personnel est vraiment accueillant & sympathique. Le resto était occupé, mais malgré ça, le serveur était toujours attentifs & disponibles. Nous sommes arrivés vers la fin de la soirée & ils nous ont tout de suite avisés que la cuisine allait bientôt fermer, en nous laissant le temps de commander ce qu'on voulait, incluant nos consommations. Un excellent service du début à la fin. J'y retournerai sans hésiter avec des amis & je recommande vraiment cet endroit!

Ce n'est pas recommandé.

Option Buffet c'est 2$ extra si tu veux que les tacos soit servi avec une tortilla & no double.

Service client a améliorer.
Le serveur oublie de m'amener ma boisson, des citrons & oublie de m'aviser que la cuisine ferme & quand je lui demande je voulais commander mon dernier round il me dit la cuisine est fermer a 21:03.
Faudrai refromer le personnel dans ce restaurant.

Je ne retournerai pas

By far the best tacos I've had in my life!! Found this by chance urgently searching for food & its an absolute gem. Cute atmosphere, good music, kind waitress. My boyfriend didnt like mexican food, but he took literally one bite here & said it was the best food he ever tasted. Highly highly reccomend the horchata & the cabeza! Will be telling everyone I know about this place

Super restaurant mexicain ! Nous y sommes allés pour leur formule « à volonté » & nous n'avons pas été déçus. Les portions étaient généreuses & le goût au rendez-vous. Fernando nous a bien accueilli ! Nous reviendrons certainement 😋
