Jose's Cantina - St Ignace

The chips and salsa were friendly. the salsa was casual, and the chips had very little taste. we have the portabello enchiladas, and they were in order. we also wanted to get the fajitas, but they didn't let us add mushrooms.

Most items can be made vegan. They have a vegetarian section on the menu and you can just get no cheese. All of the food was delicious.

My husband and I are high risk so we don’t eat inside restaurants. When we arrived, super hungry, excited to have found a vegan option in the area (which is hard to find), the outdoor seating area was full. I said “okay, we can do takeout”, only to have the hostess tell me they don’t do takeout?!?!? I’ve never heard such a thing, especially during Covid. How insane. Guess we’re eating granola bars for dinner.

Visiting Mackinaw City which has very limited veg options, but found this place through HappyCow and not disappointed. It’s a 15-20min drive across the Mackinaw Bridge. Excellent Mexican food and they claim the “best taco in Michigan”. We also learned the owner is vegetarian which is a cool plus

I had ordered the combination platter and specified that I was vegan, my server had acknowledged it and I felt pretty safe. Food was delicious and filling, but the morning after I felt pretty confident it had some sort of dairy. I have an allergy and it gave me the sort of feeling that only dairy gives me. Don’t write them off completely, just double check there’s no butter or anything
