It’s Good! - Edit
My boyfriend and I had the vegan chile relleno & vegan shrimp quesadilla. We both liked our food, but agreed it was not anything out of this world. I do appreciate the vegan mexican options, and would still eat here again.

Amazing Vegan Menu! - Edit
This is by far the best vegan menu for Mexican food that I’ve ever seen! It was so delicious I can’t wait to go back! I got the 3 enchiladas: vegan beef, vegan chicken, vegan cheese. So delicious!!! I had tons of leftovers for tomorrow!

Amazing vegan find - Edit
This place is amazing. I will start by saying I have lived in San Diego for a year and have been on the hunt for a Mexican place with a decent sized vegan menu that didn’t just include one sad little mushroom taco and chips and guac. Ordering online was seamless, I felt like I was scrolling forever through the vegan options. We Decided on burritos (surf & turf, as well as the works with carne asada) also got a side of chips and guac/salsa/pico, as well as a V shrimp taco. Amazing. I have been eating leftovers for days because the portion sizes were gigantic. The service was great, my order was ready for pickup quicker than the online ordering said. Their covid precautions in place were comforting when I walked in to pick up. Very nice staff and amazing food. Will definitely be trying more on the menu!

Not our favorite - Edit
Read all the good reviews and dined for dinner with our family. We each ordered a different vegan enchilada: roasted veggies with no cheese, the vegan avocado and trio of different mock meats. All were bland and didn’t have a lot of flavor. Maybe this restaurant is better when eating the real meat and cheese dishes. The staff was super friendly and nice and there were a few small tables outside to eat at.

Plenty of options! - Edit
The vegan menu is extensive. I haven't ordered something I did not like. Only negative points is that it's cramped and the salsa is subpar.

The best vegan Mexican food - Edit
This beautiful cozy Mexican restaurant offers a plethora of vegan and vegetarian options: soy chorizo to shiitake machaca for breakfast, from vegan chile rellenos to tofu rolled tacos, and more creative dishes like eggplant fries. FYI—the vegan chocolate cake is to die for.

Numerous vegan options - Edit
This place basically has its own vegan menu with an array of options. The carne asada tastes like actual meat. I had to ask the waiter to confirm it wasn’t meat. Although it’s probably not the most healthy food, it does seem most ingredients are solid.. But, it’s tasty, fairly priced, and free chips and salsa. This, not a bad place to try if you are looking for some vegan Mexican comfort food.

So freaking good - Edit
I LOVED my meal here- it reminds me of the Mexican food I used to eat before I went vegan. The vegan enchiladas were superb and I loved the avocado filling in some of them. The rice and beans are flavorful and good, too. This is going to be my new spot!

Impressed - Edit
Unlike other reviews this is a true 4 star review - not 5. I was extremely excited to see that their "The Works" burrito could be made vegan. As most of us know it's rare to find a vegan burrito that has cheese and sour cream. So I rushed over to the restaurant to try it out, only to realize midway through my meal that there was indeed no sour cream in the burrito. The 'meat' and 'cheese' were great, however, if you're going to advertise that something can be ordered vegan, you should either notate that that means excluding something in the ingredients or make sure everything that's listed is going to be in the vegan version. So that disappointed me. Other than that the amount of times I said "I'm impressed" really shows how great this place is. I wish I had discovered it sooner.
Read morePros: Delicious food, Great atmosphere, Vegan CAKE! :)
Cons: Not upfront about excluded ingredients, Margarita was not the best, Service took awhile, but it was a Friday night

Amazing Vegan Mexican Food - Edit
Food*****
Read moreWe ordered chips and guacamole to start and two Strawberry Margaritas. They were very accommodating, and added strawberry’s to the regular margarita. The margs were some of our favorite: sweet but not too sweet and made with agave wine instead of tequila. I’m not sure the alcohol content but for $5 a glass, it didn’t really matter! The guacamole was well seasoned and came with salsa. Beware the salsa if you aren’t in for a spicy kick! For our dinner selection, we order the Chipoltle seitan burrito and the soy chorizo quesadilla. The restaurant had run out of the seitan, but the waiter suggested the fake chicken substitute and it did not disappoint. So delicious we were yearning for more! They hit it out of the park with this one. The quesadilla was to die for. We’ve had a lot of different vegan cheeses and this one was particularly gooey and scrumptious.
Atmosphere***
The atmosphere is quaint with some Mexican decor peppered throughout.
Service**
When we got to the restaurant, there was a line out the door and no one seating patrons. I am not sure if they were short staffed but we waited almost 15 minutes without anyone even coming to the door to let us know what the wait was. Meanwhile, there were many open tables but just no hostess to seat. When we finally got seated, service was great. They were relatively quick and attentive.
Price (use dollar signs to signify cheap or expensive ex. $ = cheap, $$$$ = VERY expensive )
$$ great price for absolutely delicious food! Would go back there in a second, if only the service getting seated was better. Again, I am unsure if this was due to short staffing or a fault of the restaurant.
Pros: Lots of vegan meat options

Amazing! - Edit
I can highly recommend this place
Read moreWithin the first 2 min we sat down we got some ice cold water, nachos and salsa (even though the restaurant was quite busy and we were sitting outside).
Prices are affordable and super fair concerning the big portions.
The staff was constantly asking about our well being and we had a little chat, too with the manager. Super nice!
There are meat, vegetarian and vegan dishes/options.
In the end we got a soy milkshake for free.
So happy I found his restaurant via this app!
Pros: Many vegan options Super nice stuff

Would not go back - Edit
There is a variety of options for vegans. I ordered the banana strawberry mango smoothie with soy milk, the 3 vegan enchiladas, and tortilla soup. However, I did not love or even like any of the 3 different things I ordered so I would not take a chance on going back to try something different. My husband (non vegan) did not enjoy his meal either. We also have a baby, there were no Highchairs and he had to sit on my lap which is fine but the tables are SO small that it was very uncomfortable.

The vegan menu is extensive and hard to choose from. I got a plate of refried beans, Mexican rice, and fried tempeh tacos. Also ordered a side of guacamole. Tasty and cheap. Cost less and tasted way better than inferior tacos from Veggie Grill.
