El Vez
Mexican / Tex-Mex in Philadelphia
El Vez is a Stephen Starr restaurant on 13th Street in Center City built around a colorful, neon lit dining room and a menu the restaurant calls Mex-Eclectic, blending traditional Mexican dishes with its own inventive twists. A large tequila and mezcal program anchors the bar, and the kitchen serves much of its menu family style for sharing. The restaurant offers group dining for up to 75 guests in its main dining room, with the option to book the entire restaurant exclusively for events up to 250 guests across brunch, lunch and dinner. Private events are booked through the restaurant's events team and can be tailored around the family style format that defines the everyday menu. El Vez sits at 121 South 13th Street in Midtown Village, part of the Stephen Starr restaurant group that also includes Buddakan and Talula's Garden.
