They introduced new Taco articles for the 2023 Vegan Chef Challenge and they remain on the menu. Oyster mushrooms and cauliflower tacos are delicious. Coconut Tofu is delicious. There are burritos and salads that I still have to try, so I know I'm going back. Staff know to know the nutritional preferences. Owner is very pro vegan and does it best to see, everyone has something good to eat. Great little place with beautiful atmosphere.

Mexican food is always tricky for vegans, as Lard and chicken broth can often be used in rice and beans and sometimes even tortilla chips. I was pleasantly surprised to learn that they already had many additional vegan items on the menu. The coconut Crunchy Tofu was crispy on the outside and very light and fluffy on the inside and the diving sauce was really delicious. I also enjoyed the Baja Cauli Taco and found it really delicious, also my daughter, who normally does not like cauliflowers like this dish. I have heard that all these new items remain on the menu permanently, so I plan to go back and try some different vegan options next time I am in this part of the city.

There weren't very complex spices and flavors here, basically the components were cooked and baked, and that's that while I prefer to have more spices in my food. The Spanish rice had a sweet aftertaste, which I had not yet met in Spanish rice and was kind of lump. It is not the Spanish rice you usually get from an authentic Mexican place. I'll give them another shot, but I wouldn't reorder the enchiladas, maybe I would try what the other reviews recommend. So in summary: a bit bland and not what I hoped, but still a decent vegan meal I didn't have to cook myself and we all know how beautiful this can be.

We like it. Simple. Clean. Fresh. Not the typical Mexican food most places serve. Nice people own and work here. read more We like it. Simple. Clean. Fresh. Not the typical Mexican food most places serve. Nice people own and work here.
