Lupita's Mexican - Incline Village

This restaurant serves homemade chips and guacamole, with a whole section of the menu dedicated to vegetarian options. While it may not be as authentic as a Mexican restaurant in Reno, it's one of the most veggie-friendly places in the Tahoe area, serving delicious food made with real ingredients. A tip: order takeout and enjoy it on the beautiful deck at the wine bar located above the restaurant. (Reviewed on 2020-06-08)

I have ordered from this restaurant before and they accidentally added milk to my order. This time, I visited in person. I was told that they were vegetarian-friendly but could also make dishes vegan upon request. However, it didn't seem like they were very accommodating to vegans.

Black beans are suitable for vegans, but rice contains chicken stock and refried beans are made with lard.

I tried almost every vegetarian option on this menu. The best are the El Presidente Tacos and the Burrito Banado with mole sauce.

Homemade chips. Homemade Guac. A whole section on the menu for vegetarians. Sure, it's not House of Mexica in Reno, but this is from FAR the most veggie-friendly Mexican place up here in the Tahoe Mountains, and they make real food from genuine ingredients. Nom nom nom nom. Pro Tip: Order to go and enjoy it on the beautiful deck on the wine bar directly opposite. Updated by previous review on 2020-06-08
