Good quick option for Old San Juan

Be sure to specify no Mayo/no cheese but the veggie Philly was tasty and filling! A couple options for vegan “meats” if you ask

Decent place for a quick bite in old San Juan

First off the soy meat options are quite good. Just make sure you're very clear about cheese if you're vegan. My wife ordered no cheese on her sandwich, it had cheese then they had charged us almost 5 dollars for a Swiss cheese thing

Pros: Soy meat was good , Service was pretty fast

Pleasantly surprised

It's rare to find veg options in a fast food establishment, but that's why you go to El Mesón! There are 4 vegetarian sandwiches on the menu, which you can request to be made vegan. I got the Philly cheese steak sandwich, made with vegan chicken pieces, and simply ordered with the cheese. Their fries are also tasty!

Really good fries! There are multiple vegetarian options on the menu

Vegetarian options were plenty. I asked for the omelette sandwich without meat and they were easily about to do that.

good sandwich option

Surfer sandwich without mayo was vegan. Staff was friendly and explained how I could ensure that sandwich would be vegan. Fries were good, too!

Messy.

El Meson...PLEASE LEAVE ONE SIDE OF THE BREAD UNCUT WHEN YOU SERVE THE VEGAN OPTIONS! I think the cheese and sauces (not vegan) are supposed to hold it all together. Without the extra stuff, the crumbles fall out of the sand which EVERYWHERE. That being said: THANK YOU FOR HAVING VEGAN STUFF!

No Vegan Options

There were no actual vegan options, and it was not open when we tried to go on a Saturday afternoon.

Cons: No vegan options, Confusing hours

Great fast food

Super convenient, 3 veg options. Was a little bland with taking off mayo and cheese but added mustard and that helped.

Pros: Convenient, Fast

Never Had Vegan Salami - Good

The veggie salami was good without the cheese and mayo, but it would be nice if they had substitutes. Still a good place of you like sandwiches and are trying to please meat eaters too. Side note, supposedly you can get any sandwich on a baked potato, neat!

Pros: Unique vegan meats

Cons: Need to ask for no cheese and no mayo.
