Review by Okey Willms

September 12, 2024

El Vez is a vibrant gem in Philadelphia that never fails to impress! 🌟 The atmosphere is buzzing, filled with quirky decor and a lively crowd. I absolutely loved the guacamole - it was fresh and flavorful, and the tangy salsas just hit the spot. The nachos were also a winner!

We had a generous portion of the Snapper Veracruzana, which was deliciously cooked. Our server, Crystal, was attentive, though it took a while to get our drink orders filled. Despite that, it's truly a perfect spot for a fun brunch or dinner. Can't wait to return! 🌮🍹
