El Viejo Mexico

The Spis take

A neighborhood Mexican mainstay near the Marble Church that has run under the same ownership for close to 20 years, serving Latin American classics with a Danish accent alongside a big tequila-and-cocktail list. It has picked up consistent local recognition — years of TripAdvisor excellence and a nod as one of the city's best Mexicans — so expect a warm, well-run room rather than fireworks. A safe, cheerful choice for margaritas and fajitas in the center.
