Tacos Wuey Detroit

From the moment you walk into Taco Wuey, you can tell this isn’t your average taqueria. The space has a modern, beautiful decor colorful yet classy, with a warm glow and attention to detail that perfectly blends traditional Mexican roots with a contemporary Detroit edge. It feels like a place designed with pride, ideal for a date night, family outing, or just to unwind over good food and creative drinks. The agua frescas are incredible fresh, vibrant, and perfectly balanced in sweetness.I ordered the Camarones Yucatecos, and it completely exceeded expectations. The shrimp were perfectly seared, tender, and packed with flavor from the guajillo achiote sauce, resting beautifully on banana leaf with onions, rice, and plantains. Every component complemented the next smoky, sweet, and savory all in one dish. You can tell Chef Eddie Vargas really understands how to balance flavors while keeping things authentic and soulful. The salsas and sauces here deserve their own spotlight each one adds a unique punch. The fact that they offer multiple types of flavorful sauces on the side makes it easy to customize every bite to your taste. The Dubai Churro was a masterpiece. A creative, modern twist that’s as fun to look at as it is to eat. Crispy outside, soft inside, with layers of sweetness and texture a truly innovative and wellexecuted dessert that sums up the entire experience here.Overall, Taco Wuey is a gem in Southwest Detroit Definitely one of the most creative and delicious Mexican dining experiences in the city.

Chef Eddie Vargas' restaurant is a home run! The food is amazing with his family Birria recipe front and center. I had the Birria Ramen which was amazing, so flavorful! Of course I had to add a Birria Taco because, you just have to. For desert, we had the Paleta de Jicama and what a refreshing summer dessert! Cannot recommend Tacos Wuey enough!!

Chef Eddie continues to make delicious food. I was dreaming of this ceviche and so happy to have it again. This time I made myself take a picture before diving in! The flan was also surprisingly tasty. Looking forward to trying everything on the menu in time!

The food is absolutely delicious—bursting with flavor and beautifully presented. It's an elevated Mexican fusion style, made with high-quality ingredients that truly shine. Everything was perfect: the dishes looked elegant and appetizing, and the atmosphere was warm and welcoming. A special shout-out to Tina, who was incredibly kind, lovely, and always smiling. We felt genuinely cared for here, with amazing food and an outstanding team.

We ordered the guacamole 🥑 to start and it might be the best I've had in the area! Followed it with a couple different tacos that were all amazing, but really need to highlight the fish taco... BTW, the salsa is to die for!

Tacos Wuey is a GREAT new place in Mexican village. I had the quesobirria and a pig ear taco, my wife got a torta, and we split some guac. Pro tip: they do not have a liquor license but you can bring you own wine or beer! Everything was delicious, and we will definitely be coming back!

Presentation was colorful and the flavors were just as beautiful! Even the homemade agua fresca was delicious. I’d recommend everyone to try it! You can tell the chef has so much passion into what he creates. I’m definitely coming back, the menu is so expansive, and there’s always something different to try.

Chef Eddie Vargas adds a colorful take on traditional Mexican food. If you’ve have everything in Mexican town you have to try this! We had the molcajete ribeye that was delicious and tender!! The zucchini blossoms stuffed with with Huitlacoche and cheese are out of this world! Matcha wings are 10/10!! This will be our 3rd visit!
