Bomb

Although not fully vegan when you open the menu the first page is all vegan and then you have to turn the page to see the meat options. Black bean burrito was gorgeous, little under seasoned but went down easy

Pros: Reasonably priced

Cons: Mild flavor

Didn't Warn Me that 1/2 C. Mushrooms is $9.50

I used to love this place. The server charged $9.50 to just have 1/2 cup of mushrooms added to my lettuce salad (but they did make it clear after the bill came out, that the 1/2 c mushrooms was super fancy and gourmet and told me it was a large portion--about 3 cups--ie, told me I was wrong about the amount of mushrooms I got). The server got a manager, who was even more unreasonable, inconsiderate, and just plain rude. They gave me no refund. They did not care that they would offend other vegans and seemed glad this would prevent vegans from coming in the future.

Pros: Has many Vegan Items on Menu, Clean, sanitary, Has employees

Cons: Charged $9.50 for 1/2 c mushrooms to add to salad., Vegan menu items not great. I did a substitution., Server and Manager would not fix issue, rude

Why? No. Please choose anything else.

Literally the worst place for vegan options in Ogden. I’ve been giving them the benefit of the doubt for nearly a decade but I just think they need to know the truth. Their vegan options are DISGUSTING. It's like a clove fairy vomited all over my taco salad. Please do better. You can do this. I believe in you, boo. It's not hard.

Pros: Umm the staff is nice , Cheap wine, Salsa options

Cons: Bruh. Why?, 🤢, 🤮

Nice spot in town

A fair number of vegan options. Server was friendly and helpful. Vegan options are marked but she suggested other modifications as well. Good food!

Ole!!!!

The vegan options were plentiful and on part of the menu.

The meals were very tasty and had fresh ingredients.

The atmosphere is lively and it has a big city feel.

Our only con is that the waitress seemed to be trying to turn our table over quickly. When we were only halfway through our meals, she asked us if we wanted to go boxes or desserts. It was very odd timing and then she kept hovering as if she wanted us to leave.

Pros: Lots of vegan and veg options. , Reasonable prices, Generous portions

Cons: Server rushed us

Oh, sad! I've had great experiences there. I'm sorry you had a server who rushed you. I hope you don't get one like that if you go again!

Dedicated Vegan Dishes

I love that they are one of the few restaurants that have a dedicated vegan menu. There are even more items in their website. I ordered avocado tacos, and I asked server to find out if they were vegan because they weren’t identified as vegan on the menu like other items. I don’t think she understood there was a difference between vegan and vegetarian. They had a breading in them so I still question whether they are truly vegan.

Update: They have updated their menu with the option of non-battered avocado to be vegan

Updated from previous review on 2018-03-30

Pros: Dedicated vegan options, delicious if simple food

Very nice place

A dedicated vegan/vegetarian page in the menu. Avocado Tacos were amazing (*note crispy avocado is not vegan).

Very happy with our meal there.

Great vegan options!

Great vegan options on the regular menu, didn't need to ask for a separate menu. There was a vegan/veg section and everything was clearly labeled. Food was high quality and tasty.

Pros: Lots of vegan options on the regular menu, Very reasonably priced

Great food, cute place!

We were driving from Ohio to Oregon and drove through Ogden looking for lunch. I found this restaurant online and was very pleased to see they had a huge vegan menu. My daughter and I were both torn between the vegan black bean burrito and the crispy avocado tacos, so we ordered both and split them. The black bean burrito was very good - huge and filling with a generous side of guac. The tacos were unique in a great way! Loved the sauce for them. We got an extra side of rice and beans (comes with tacos but not burrito). With two meals, a Coke, and the rice and beans our total was only $35. We also enjoyed the chips and salsa. Our food came out super quick! I don't imagine I'll be in Utah again but if I am, I'll happily stop here again. So happy we stopped by!

Awesome!

The food here was delicious! I have a dairy and gluten allergy. We told our server and he promised to make it clear to the kitchen. The appetizer of large chips, salsa, and fresh guac was awesome. We had the black bean tostada and vegan fajitas, they were wonderful and fresh. I also enjoyed a virgin pina colada. Felt great afterwards, experience was awesome!

Pros: Fresh, not greasy, Quick service even though busy

Fresh and delicious

Dedicated vegan/vegetarian section on menu with great selections. Had the avocado tacos which were amazing and my husband had the fajita burrito which was also excellent, nice big chunks of mushrooms.

Pros: Plenty of vegan options, Fun drinks, Great location

Vegan -I have to disagree

Although they say they are vegan options there is no way due to my daughter having an allergy to dairy and became sick after eating the Vegan Quesadilla. The rest of us felt ill as well but not like her. Very disappointed because it did have good flavor.

Pros: Good flavor, Amber is a great server

Cons: Made us sick

Solid Mexican-ish food

Refreshing to see a dedicated vegan menu, though I found it necessary to clarify and confirm no cheese on things. The kids menu was easy to veganize, too, my daughter loved her bean burrito with side of rice. The guacamole was divine, though they use a lot of cilantro on everything so make sure to specify if that's a problem for you!

Pros: Dedicated vegan menu

Our go-to place in Ogden

We have has a great experience every time we have been here. The avocado tacos with the little bit of pineapple sweetness are probably my favorite item on the menu. The service is always great and the environment is calm, beautiful and clean.

Pros: Separate vegan menu, Delicious vegan items, Great environment

Great place to go with family or friends.

Sonora is maybe the first place in Ogden to have a full vegan menu. This is important to me because it tells me that they understand what vegan is and that I don't have to rely on confused servers and cooks to figure it out. The restaurant is nice. The food is good but I sometimes feel like it's lacking a bit of spice or something. And I'm not one of those dudes who loves spicy.

Pros: Great place to bring non-veg friends or family, Full veg menu

Cons: The food is mildly bland to me.

5 100% Vegan Main Dish Items on the Menu!

Check out their menu! It has 5 vegan main dish menu items! It also has non-alcoholic margaritas that they say are vegan. The food is very, very good! The prices are high but it is worth the price.

Pros: 5 vegan main dish menu items that are delicious, free chips and salsa, great srvice

Cons: about $12-$14 a plate before the tip, extra chips and salsa past the first, cost money, they also serve meat

Favorite Mexican in Ogden!

I love this place. My family spends a lot of birthdays and special occasions here. My favorite is their Pineapple Tacos with a side of the coconut rice. Excellent margaritas as well! Beautiful building. Ask for their Habanero salsa if you like it super spicy!

Pros: Great vegan menu, Vegan refried beans, Margaritas

Cons: No vegan cheese, No vegan desserts

I love this place!

I love going to Sonora Grill because they're one of the only restaurants that has a separate vegan menu. I always get their Vegan Black Bean Burrito because it's hands down the best thing on the menu. My only problem is that I probably go there too much.. anytime anyone needs a restaurant suggestion I always suggest Sonora Grill. Their food is delicious and I don't have to worry about non-vegan foods coming anywhere near my vegan burrito. Would definitely recommend this place to anyone.

Pros: vegan menu, delicious food, affordable

Fantastic!

One of our favorite restaurants. Have a dedicated vegan menu (you can add cheese for vegetarian dishes) and all the options are excellent. Fairly upscale, really nice decor and atmosphere (although at times the music is loud). The food is outstanding. Your flesh-eating companions will love it also. Highly recommend!

Pros: Tasty!, Vegan menu, Open Sunday

Cons: At times music is loud, At times there is a wait

Sonora's Vegan Menu options

I have been going to Sonora for quite a while. The Vegan Menu is great. I have tried all of the 8 Vegan offerings. One favorite, The Vegan Fajita Burrito is, as it sounds, a burrito stuffed with Fajita veggies and is huge, From the Menu: Vegan Fajita Burrito large handmade flour tortilla filled with sautéed portobello mushrooms,anaheim peppers and white onions. smothered in red enchilada sauce and topped with crushed almonds, sesame seeds and our dairy-free avocado cream drizzle. served with pico de gallo and guacamole." Another favorite is the Vegan Fajitas, From their menu: Vegan Alambres (Vegan Fajitas) portobello
mushrooms, anaheim peppers and white onions sautéed in red enchilada sauce. topped with crushed almonds and sesame seeds. served with guacamole, pico de gallo and your choice of flour or corn tortillas. A recent discovery is the Tuesday special is offered with a Vegan Fajita burrito and includes: Tuesday Special: Burrito and a Beverage for only $8.99 Choose any one of our classic burritos: xxxxxxxx xxxxxxx, xxxxxxxx xxxx, xxxx [censored] xxxxxx, or our vegetarian burrito. Then choose from our sodas, homemade Agua Frescas, 20oz Dos Equis, or a house margarita. Yes you read correct, a special that includes a Margarita (spend the buck and add 1/2 an OZ) I am soo excited about this upscale restaurant with Vegan Options i've said little about the beautiful interior, well it's, beautiful. Enough about that, they seat you quickly and bring warm chips and salsa while you decide on your meal, we have never got the dear in the headlight look regarding our meal choices, and the 1 time (out of 40-50) they actually messed up our meals, they brought the Vegan Black Bean Burritto rather than the Vegan Fajita Burritto, no harm-no foul. It is a family friendly location and environment.

Pros: Upscale Environment, Excellent Food, Great Location

Cons: They do serve dead things
