Joel's Mexican Food - Sandpoint

Joel's is consistently a fantastic value with friendly staff and delicious food! The service is quick and the owner, who is a beloved figure in the community, is a wonderful person.

We tried the VG Potato Taco and VG Potato Burrito from this restaurant. The taco had a crispy shell and was filled with potato, cabbage, and pico de gallo, with a fresh cilantro flavor. The burrito was large and perfect for sharing, filled with rice, potato, avocado, and pico de gallo. We both enjoyed the taco more. The vegetarian menu made it easy to find vegan options, with clear markings. The restaurant was busy on a Saturday, with great people-watching. The crowd started to gather around 12:45pm (likely due to the nearby farmers market ending at 1pm). There was even a small band playing near the patio. Be prepared for a long wait, as we were told the potato hash takes longer to prepare.

I ordered the tofu abodaba burrito with no dairy and substituted the sauce for a dairy-free option. It was the most delicious vegan burrito I have ever tasted.

Tofu burrito w/ non dairy vegan sauce is a great option

Great veg-friendly foods! The blackened, tofu burrito with the dairy-free sauce is AWESOME! The potato burrito is a pleasantly delicious discovery too! Fun folks!
