As we approach the El Vez 20th Anniversary, it’s time to reflect on a journey that has defined Philadelphia’s culinary landscape. Since its opening on November 7, 2003, El Vez has been captivating the hearts of Philadelphians with its vibrant spin on Mexican cuisine and an atmosphere that exudes the essence of a festive Tijuana escapade.
The landmark celebration kicks off on the very date El Vez first opened its doors. A mariachi band will weave through the restaurant, setting a jubilant tone for the festivities. As the anniversary unfolds, guests are invited to indulge in a trip down memory lane, with live entertainment and a revival of cherished menu classics.
On Friday,November 10th, enjoy world-renowned performers, El Vez + El Vettes, and meet the “Mexican Elvis” himself from 5-7 pm. On Saturday, November 11th, catch a live performance and savor returning menu favorites and the featured cocktail, Tangerine Dream.
El Vez’s homage to its history continues beyond mere festivity. The restaurant introduces a line of limited-edition merchandise, offering a tangible piece of this milestone to its patrons. From baseball tees to bottle opener keychains, these items are infused with the spirit of El Vez’s 20-year legacy.
Stephen Starr, the visionary behind El Vez, reminisces about the inception of this now-iconic spot: “When we first opened El Vez 20 years ago, we envisioned a place that melded the vibrant spirit of Mexico with a touch of eclectic Philly charm.” Two decades later, Starr’s vision thrives, offering a unique dining experience that transcends trends and times.
