Mexico Viejo

Sorry I forgot to take any pictures. However the food was great. I had the street tacos off the appetizers menu. You get four tacos. I had the chicken. The service was outstanding. The restaurant is very nice. Very clean. I love the ambiance. I will come back. My only complaint is they don't have wine glasses. They served my wine in a glass for magiritas.

Prices for food and margaritas are very reasonable and the service is excellent. This restaurant is well managed and very popular.

Best chips and salsa in town.Staff was super friendly. Fun atmosphere. Great place.Gotta check out their quesadillas... they are FIRE.

This was my first time at this restaurant. There was a dead medium-sized roach on the floor next to our table that was overlooked by both the hostess and server. When we brought it to the attention of our server, he tried to sweep it under the door. I ordered a cheese enchilada and a chalupa from the lunch menu. The enchilada was a rolled up tortilla with unmelted cheese shreds inside. There was no red sauce. The soggy bean chalupa was buried under wilted lettuce and oxidized, brown guacamole. I was very disappointed.

Pros:The food is solid; if you've been to El Agave, Los Cocos, Playa Azul or any of the other larger, sit-down casual Mexican restaurants in town, you know what to expect--and you'll recognize the furniture. The complementary chips and salsa were fine, the menu was large but not overwhelming and we didn't have to wait too long for our food. This is a white queso-friendly establishment, which, while not considered overly "authentic" by some, is my jam. I got the chicken Chimichangas and the portion was large, flavorful and tastefully glazed in cheese sauce with standard rice/beans/salad sides. My husband got a Hawaiian-inspired chicken/shrimp dish with pineapple that came with beans with sausage (the names slip my mind) that he was very pleased with.There's a small but intentional vegetarian menu for those looking for more veg beyond the usual salad.Prices are great and still feel almost pre-pandemic, with quite a few meals under $10. Wait staff was friendly, though we had to wait a little bit longer to flag him down to get our check.Cons:We went on a Sunday night and it was surprisingly loud. There is no sound dampening in the building and with loud music and two large parties in the big room with us, we couldn't hear ourselves think. Luckily, I have earplugs in my purse, which helped, but after an exhausting week and weekend, this atmosphere was too much for us and we had to leave earlier than we wanted. People without noise sensitivities may find it fun and energizing, so take this review with a grain of salt. Overall, we enjoyed our food and would like to go back with our friends to try their table side guac, but I'm a little hesitant since I'm not sure what the noise level is at any given point. I guess we'll see!

My plate was pretty good what I ordered I got the enchiladas. Pretty tasty. Margaritas were not too bad for the price. However, the fajitas could've been better overall the atmosphere loved it service not bad.

We've been eating at Mexico Viejo for years. Always great food, great service, and very affordable. A few years ago we were getting sick after our meals. Stopped going for a few years (during the pandemic). Began going again last year 2023 and everything was back to normal. I adore the manager Saul, such a sweetheart. Our servers Jamie, Cesar, Lahlo, Olga...(I know I'm missing a few names) are wonderful people. If your meal or beverage isn't what you expected, tell your server and they'll make it right. If you like alcoholic drinks, theirs are very good and very reasonable $. We tend to eat there more often on the weekdays as "quiet" (birthdays, etc, can get pretty noisy). Overall, a great Mexican restaurant in Wichita.

Love the crew at Viejo!! Good people and GREAT food!! Get the Ranchero Special and you will NOT be disappointed!

I use to love this place.. like my favorite restaurant..then I kept having experiences where I had to speak up.. which felt intentional. My son ordered a side of guacamole for his meal and we were charged for a dip (4.50). In 2024 a few months after we started going there they changed the menu.. and increased the prices.. and portions got smaller.. now suddenly no limes (wtf) and no grenadine ie; cherry flavor.. the wait staff has always been good for the most part but I notice things that seem sketchy so I'm out.. it was fun while it lasted. Next.

Food was just fine. The service is what got us. We ordered the lunch burritos ( this was lunch time) and literally pointed at it while ordering. Got the bill and was questioning where an extra $8 was coming from. The server said, oh you got dinner not lunch plates. I said "that's not what we told you we wanted and we showed you on the menu what we wanted." Well he didn't want to make it right by changing the bill nor even apologize for getting it wrong. We were mad but didn't want to cause a scene while taking family out on a special occasion. I have never had a server force me to pay for something I clearly didn't ask for.
