★★★★★ 5.0 Tami Donner · Mar 2024

We love eating at Tacos El Viejon. It is a Spanish language imersion experience, full of Mexican culture. Spanish on the TV, Spanish spoken at the tables, and at the counter, if you wish. We especially love the cheese and shrimp tacos, the carnitas, and the al pastor. The crispy tacos are a treat. They are deep fried shells, not the store bought box style. Everything is very good. The green sauce is tasty, flavorful, without too much heat. The food is on the salty side, and I like it, it goes great with cold beer. This is a fun experience with a sweet and friendly crew. Parking is on the street and in the back. Very convenient. Plenty of indoor only seating. Tami says try 'em brah!

Every time we go to a Mexican restaurant I have to try the chilaquiles. These by far are the best I’ve had! The beans are the best beans you can ever have. The tacos are also very delicious. Definitely a place to come back to eat to when coming back to Moro Bay in the future.

★★★★★ 5.0 Ale E. · May 2021

This is a small restaurant away from the city center. We decided to get out of the embarcadero & check out the other places around. The girl working the register was friendly. We ordered red chilaquiles, came asada taco w/ cheese, & an asada burrito. The portions were really good & the flavor was good. The chilaquiles were a bit spicy, but fine for those who don't mind that. The taco was my favorite because they are not stingy with their servings at all!!

This small taco shop boasts a solid salsa bar and shrimp tostadas done properly, Baja-style.

★★★★★ 5.0 Mary Sendall · Oct 2022

The place seemed small but held plenty of seating. We ordered and sat down. It didn't seem like they offered fountain drinks but there plenty of can and bottle choices. I had two chicken tacos and my husband had burrito pastor. The burrito was large and there were plenty of sauce choices. My tacos were very good and the Pico de Gallo made them perfect. The food is very authentic and it all looked and smelled great.
