Good for the price - Edit
We have had better vegan Mexican, but this wasn’t bad at all. For the price and how fast it came out, it’s worth going to.

Expected good, got great! - Edit
Birrio and flautas! Portions are ample and so very delicious. Even the rice that came with the flautas was flavored with perfection. A must do for any vegan who loves (and has missed great Mexican food).

Decent Tacos - Edit
Food was fine, carne asada was kinda dry w/raw onions on it, bland beans and rice, but tortillas were really good. I think you’re supposed to bring you own water bottle if you want water? Service was quick and no-nonsense, and its awesome to have a 100% vegan family owned place, so upped it to 4.

Best Tacos - Edit
One of my favorite restaurants in Austin. We've been eating here since their food truck days. Everything is consistently flavorful and yummy. Flautas and biria are some of our favorites.

Wow - I missed mexican food - Edit
The taco plate was PHENOMENAL! I loved rice and refried beans growing up and mexican places always love to add animal fat to their food😒Finally, I was able to have rice and beans again and it was soooo good. All proteins are super great, im just obsessed. One thing I also miss about mexican places is free chips and salsa, but i also don’t mind supporting vegan restaurants SO there’s the one downside.
Read morePros: All vegan, so tasty, Plenty of seating, Quick to get food
Cons: Queso is expensive and it’s not very much

Hit the spot! - Edit
I am so happy to have an all vegan place up north! I got the nachos and my bf ordered the flautas - both were a bit expensive but completely delicious. Queso was an interesting texture (almost like mashed potatoes or applesauce) flavor was great. I would definitely recommend this place.

Loved it so much I can’t stop talking about it! - Edit
So being that I am Mexican, I don’t enjoy going out to eat at Mexican restaurants because I haven’t found one I like. But I tried the birria tacos & the flautas here and I was in love! Those tacos were amazing!! I would make the long drive just for that but the menu has so many options that I am looking forward to trying them all!
