Dirty and flavorless - Edit
Easy to order vegan options, I got the burrito and it came with tortilla chips (stale and oily) a variety of salsas, beans, and guacamole. The serving size of the burritos was impressive but it had zero flavor and randomly came with French fries on top which were the best part of the whole dish. The tortillas completely crumbled after a few bites making the burrito impossible to eat sensibly, overall the food was unsatisfying but filled my stomach. The worst part was finding the most disgusting bathroom at the restaurant, dead and alive cockroaches and all plus no hand soap. I literally was sick to my stomach seeing this after eating food there and fled the restaurant immediately.

Sin más - Edit
Porciones enormes. Solo tienen tacos con algunos dips (el guacamole muy regular) y cualquier plato de la carta quitándole la carne, es decir, con verduras y algo de frijoles ( de bote)más la tortilla de pan que elijas. Para sacar de un apuro está bien, pero no lo recomiendo. Música altísima que dificulta hablar y un precio alto.

Tacopado - Edit
Can be made vegan and gf.
Read moreThey gave me the chicken one which was meant for my husband. I didn't eat it as I saw it was meat before it was too late she kept saying its a chip the chicken but did realise what happened with swapped meals.
Toilets have no soap. Place had wasps and plenty of flies even though we were inside.
Cute sombreros on the tables and nice decor. Took card.
Good setting. Friendly staff. Sugar free lemonade was good as well.

only vegan options that i found there - Edit
I went to Argentina as a „border hopping“ from Foz do Iguazu.
Read moreAnd this was the only restaurant that I found that had vegan options on the menu and were aware of veganism.
I can recommend the nacho plate with guacamole and beans.
Pros: aware of veganism

Fun spot with tasty food - Edit
This is one of those kitchy places in the best possible way. It's not a huge menu, but they told us all of it could be made vegan. We had burritos and tacos (both came with chips and salsa and black beans as well as fries) and they were both similar but really tasty.
Read morePros: Everything can be made vegan, Tasty food, Fun atmosphere
Cons: they serve meat, options are somewhat similar

Overall Not Great - Edit
Tacopado has a nice space and a pleasant and courteous staff, but was unfortunately a tremendous let down for food. The food was terrible. The fries were inedible and the salsas worse than anything I’ve ever bought in a jar.
Read moreWhile they advertise themselves as vegan-friendly, it’s definitely not the case. The vegan enchilada had chicken in it. The fries were also topped in a mayo that was definitely not vegan.
The vegan tacos were decent and given the difficulty in finding vegan options, the only thing I could recommend here.

Good food but has room for improvement - Edit
Read moreI can relate to some comments. If you are vegan make sure you get the nachos (which they bring as a starter which you do not order) without the mayo sauce. Sine we were a vegan and vegetarian it was no problem. The waiter did warn me that it is not vegan.
The burrito was good. Yes, some kind of (hot) salsa would fit very well but I did not think it was dry. The french fries were fine, no mayo on my plate.
The drinks were amazing.
It's not cheap, but ok.

Not a good experience at all - Edit
Nothing on the menu is vegan, so I explained to the waitress that I didn't eat eggs, milk, cheese etc and ordered burritos with black beans and veggies. The plate of nachos they brought came with one sauce which definitely wasn't vegan, and then the burritos came with fries which were covered in egg mayo and had some kind of mayo/salad cream in them. The nachos were also super greasy and the burritos were pretty much flavourless. Wouldn't recommend at all for vegans, might be passable for veggies

Solid choice - Edit
The vegan version of burrito and tacos is good, not the best, but good enough. It lacks a bit of flavour and salsa but honestly, it's alright. The staff is super nice and their drinks are amazing!

Be careful if vegan - Edit
We liked the ambience and the food, but the food was pretty basic. We had the degustacion menu twice, but the second time we ordered it, they said that the quesadilla can't be made vegan, even though the previous day they said that everything can be made vegan and didn't warn us about the quesadilla.

Vegan alternatives available - Edit
The interior and vibe of this place really made it for me! Staff were friendly and happy to make seemingly any option vegan and even gluten free which was lovely, (although it may be worth noting that they did not speak much english). The food portions were HUGE and seemed hearty and healthy, plus nachos were offered as a free starter and they were delicious, by far my favourite part of the meal. Recommend for easy and quick service and pretty nice filling meals.

Not great - Edit
It's got a fairly cool vibe. The starter nachos were ok. We ordered the vegetarian burrito which turned out to be 2 burritos each so a huge amount of food. But half way through the first one my girlfriend took a bite into it and ended up chewing into a chunk of beef which obviously then put her off . They offered no money back. But it did cost very little.
Read moreIt seemed as though they have a premix of meat filling and they just pulled the meat out of it for the veggies. Not great
Pros: A lot of food, and cheap
Cons: Not catered to veggies very well, No quality control

The best place in Puerto de Iguazu to get nice vegan food. - Edit
A pretty good place to go!
Read moreThey give you free nachos with Guacamole, beans, hot Sauce and alsa cruda plus a free shot of Tequila at the end.
Their vegan Options are basically just their normal meals with the meat cut out. I'd recommend to not get the vegan Tacos since they're just vegetables without a lot of taste but to get the burritos instead. They are stuffed with way more vegetables and beans and combined with the free sauces and toppings they make a good vegan meal. Also they come with fries which go very well with those topppings as well.
They decorated the Restaurant nicely and you get a bit of a mexican vibe there. Staff seemed to be nice too.
All in all id recommend this place to everyone, whos looking for a nice Restaurant with good but not vey Special / creative vegan Food.
Pros: Free nachos and tequila, Free sauces and toppings to spice up your food, Nicely decorated
Cons: Nothing special, The vegan meals are just normal meals without meat, Not a lot of vegan options

Great! - Edit
Lovely right from the start - it looks great from the outside, like a place you want to go in. The staff is awesome, super dedicated and helpful. One waiter in particular, Ale, was very aware of what a vegan is and recommended us the best dishes for us (he was right, they were great!). Everything was perfect, it's a place I highly recommend

The overall experience was pleasant. Nice that the waiters knew what they could offer vegan/ vegetarian. However the mains were not as tasty as could have been (also confirmed by meat eating friends).

Completely Disappointed - Edit
The food in Tacopado is good, and the staff is prepared to receive vegan customers. However, the place looks dirty (there are a lot of flies), and they charged us extra for not having pesos. They charged us 28 reais (the equivalent to 412 pesos at the moment) beyond the price, despite saying that they would accept reais anyway. The didn’t have change for the brazil’s currency, so we ended up paying 15 reais extra BEYOND THE CHARGED FOR THE RESTAURANT - since they did not agreed to charge a little bit less, even though it would still be beyond the correct price.

Excellent for Vegans in Meat eating Argentina - Edit
For Vegans there are tacos & burritos and they are tasty. The limonade natural with mint and ginger was superb.
Read moreAs a vegan you have a difficult time in Argentina, pasta and Mexican food are your best choices.
Pros: Waiters know what menu items are vegan., They know the difference between vegetarian & vega
Cons: None worth mentioning.

Just ok - Edit
Explained to the English speaking waiter that I was vegan and he confirmed this would not be an issue. Ordered the combo which was two tacos and a barrito. Unfortunately one of the taco's contained cheese. The waiter was apologetic and blamed the chef. As someone else has mentioned check your food carefully. Not the best Mexican I've had, but it was ok considering the lack of vegan option in the local area. Service was good and the pricing was reasonable.

Check food carefully - Edit
I went here a few times during my time at Iguazu as I read they have vegan and gluten-free options. The first time I was given a dish with a friend egg and the other time one of my burritos had tiny pieces of chicken in it. They fixed it and the wait staff were apologetic, but I'm not confident that the chef understands what vegan means.
