worth the haul to the mall

It’s fun to get to go to the mall and actually have options!! Psst—this place is actually sandwiched (no pun intended) b/w two other vegan places.

Pros: All vegan menu, Tasty vegan cheese and sour cream

Cons: Lil’ pricy, but happy to support vegan.

Finally great vegan Mexican food!!

I got the California burrito and it was HUGE. Could definitely feed 2 people and it was a little pricey at $15 after I added guac but it was so good. You wouldn't be able to tell this was vegan. Even the soy protein tasted charred/grilled and the sauces were on point.

Pros: Very good, authentic taste with a vegan twist

Cons: Expensive

Killer food court/taco shop Mex

I hate Food courts but imagine this is as good as it gets for this style Mex. Not cheapest but burrito was big and dense. If you aren’t known for an appetite and hungrier, I don’t think you’ll finish it! I’m actually a bit afraid of the large size loaded fries..

Cons: Could be more eco friendly , Food court vibes

Best vegan California burritos

I wish I lived in San Diego so I could try their entire menu. I’ve been looking forward to coming here for months and finally made it to California. It did not disappoint. The California burrito was massive and I didn’t have room to try anything else.

There are three other vegan options in the courtyard too. Grab your sleeping bags and find a spot under the deck: it’s gonna take some time to try it all

Ah-may-zing!

I've been eating at this place for 3 years now. I love it so much. All their menu items have great taste, and there is something for everyone. The beefast burrito is huge and you will love every bite. They are constantly throwing in different limited time authentic Mexican dishes and they are always a hit.

Happy cow images are old, check out their Instagram for current photos of the food

Pros: All vegan, Delicious, Variety

Cons: Above average price, Only available on market days

Delight

Too bad that they are the only 100% vegan establishment in Escondido. Fortunately, we have not been disappointed with any of their offerings.

Pros: Everything they serve.

Cons: Limited days (only on Tuesdays)

Great tasting selection

I've tried many of the items on the menu when I have visited the Escondido farmers market. I particularly like the vegan Reuben sandwich. The owner and staff are always very friendly. I'm happy to give them my business.

Delicious, authentic mexican food.

So delicious! We got the potato tacos, Rueben sandwich, breakfast burrito, horchata & jamaica. The hot sauce was delicious too. We are going to come back as often as possible. Next time, the carnitas tacos.

Pros: Vegan...everything is vegan.

AWESOME FOOD

The whole menu is vegan, which is one of my favorite things ever. I got the "Sandwich de Jack", which was a Chipotle BBQ Jackfruit Sandwich with some vegan mayo, pickled onions, some sort of slaw...just amazing. And it came with these tasty potatoes on the side which just fall apart in your mouth. I also got the Potato Tacos, which were like rolled, deep fried tortillas filled with potato and topped with some lettuce and stuff. Very good. They had two salsas they make themselves (both awesome, but I went for the green cause the dude cooking up all this great food said it was the spicier one) and some pickled red onion. Super friendly duo working the booth when we went (At the Oceanside Sunset Market). All around great experience.

Pros: Good Prices, Awesome Food, All Vegan Everything

Cons: I wish I could've eaten more, I have nothing bad to say, Only good things
