Taco Joes - BYRON BAY

Love this place! it is always on my list to visit when I am byron. my favorite is the vegan san chow arch!

We had the vegan Thai salad with extra tofu, the vegetarian plate (the vegan is) and the vegan option for the ingwer and garlic stir fry. many sweet in the stirrup and not badly handed over to the sauce. salat was hearty and also full of an energy-producing mixture of fresh vegetables. the plate was delicious and on the "mmm, deep fried" taste buds, without being fat or feeling unhealthy.

Wouldn't go back. Vegan options clearly labeled, however not many options. Vegan Nasi goreng was bland.

I really enjoyed my food it was so delicous! I was told there would be a wait on food (they seemed very popular and busy) and although it took a little long to come out it was so worth the wait they where friendly and my food was fresh with a large variety of seasonal veggies

We heard Byron Bay is a mecca of vegan food. This is true, but not for dinner options. We headed to Asia Joe's and was delighted to see lots of vegan options. We ordered the vegetarian platter, which says it can be made vegan on the menu, and some stir fries. The food came out fairly quickly, despite the place being super busy. The guy who took our order labelled everything vegan, with capital letters and highlighter, so I felt pretty good about seeing they're attentive. The meals were fantastic. Good sized portions, healthy and fresh, lots of flavour. But atmosphere is the number one pro of the whole place. Hidden away in a little alleyway in the heart of Byron Bay's main street, this place is beautifully lit up at night time, but be warned, it takes a while to get a seat. We came back two nights later for a take away meal. I tried ordering the vegetarian platter again, but the girl serving us said it couldn't be done vegan, despite it being written on the menu. I immediately froze, as we'd eaten this two nights before and the guy said nothing about it not being vegan, and it is clearly labelled that it can be vegan on the menu. I was doubtful about what she said, but didn't get it a second time just in case. She suggested some tofu pockets, which were fantastic. The meal took about 20 minutes to come out, but it was delicious, fresh and affordable like last time. The only downer was the doubt about the vegetarian platter.
