Dream about this place

I visited San Antonio almost a year ago and I still think about these tacos. Everything (including the salsa) was made on the spot— so fresh, so spicy, so delicious! Visit San Antonio just to eat here!

Pros: High quality and wide variety of food, Everything can be vegan, Nice owners

Cons: Not in my home city!

Dreamy vegan tacos

Truly amazing vegan tacos, always made with care, you won't be disappointed. The burritos are also really good and toasted to perfection. To top it off, the avocado has never not been perfectly, perfectly ripe😄 The salsas I've had are *picante* so be careful before pouring all over your food. New location outside Sanitary Tortilla is a little bit off the beaten track (but still close to downtown and the river), but well worth the trip.

Pros: Perfect tacos, Friendly staff, Good value

Cons: New location slightly out the way

So delicious!

Some of the best vegan Mexican food I’ve ever had. We had 2 kinds of tacos and they were both delicious. The gorditas were so fresh and tasty, too. I would eat here all the time if I lived in SA.

Hidden Gem

Really great food in a historic district a short walk from the river walk. I tried the tacos al pastor and gorditas asada. Both were delicious. There is a bike shop next to the food truck that has a lot of drink options too (coffees, sodas, beer, etc). I saw previous reviews saying the street tacos were 3 for $8. Now, they are 4 for $10. Worth it in my opinion. Definitely going back!

Pros: Walking and biking friendly area, Delicious food

Cons: Limited outdoor seating

my favorite vegan food in SA

ALWAYS delicious. every time I try something new I am amazed. try the sopes! they’re not on the paper menu but are available!! great limeade with just a hint of sweetness. BEST vegan cheese i’ve ever had at a restaurant, made with coconut. the chef is so sweet, my wife and I go so often we secretly call him Tío...

ALSO TIP: if you take to go bring your pyrex!!!!! a justified up charge is applied for to go orders. seating is outdoors.

Pros: everything is good. literally

Tacos get a "B"

That's all I tried -- the street tacos -- four for $10. Solid flavors: lots of raw onions, cooked onions and cilantro on beans and a dry "meat." Add your own amount of their hot sauce, which was good. Chips really fresh tasting.

Pros: Fun vegan Mexican selections; ability to add spicy, (or not!).

Cons: A little spendy. I'm used to a juicier taco.

I walked 2 miles in the 90 degree heat

And it was worth every step and sweat bead to eat here. The quesadilla con Carne pastor style was so good. The street tacos were also delicious.

Pros: All vegan , Friendly staff

Cons: I don't live here so I can't come everyday

Tapatio Vegan Tacos

The tacos are excellent but be aware these are "mini" tacos and very pricey at 3 for $8! Convenient store parking lot, no table or chairs. Be aware when given a choice to eat there or to go, you are upcharged $1.25 for a to go container.

Pros: Food and hot sauce delicious!

Cons: Too expensive for what you get!

Authentic, Fresh, and Delicious!

One of our favorite joints in town!

Owners are from Guadalajara Mexico and the vegan cheese is made in-house (coconut based). Salsas and masa (corn dough) are also home-made.


I recommend the asada tacos and gorditas.

DANKEST VEGAN MEXICAN STREET FOOD IN TEXAS

The many times I’ve visited Tapatio Vegan Tacos I’ve received nothing but southern hospitality, I mean I feel like I’m going to see my grandma when I see this team and they feed me like my grandmother would too! 😂 I mean seriously carne asadas, quesadillas, our favorite was the torta adobado with every single one of their many in house made salads and garnishes, try the verde if you brave and every one loves the pickled onions 😇🤤👍🏼💚🌱

Pros: TONS OF CREATIVE VEGAN STREET FOOD OPTIONS, UNLIMITED SAUCES FOR YOUR MEAL?!?, TORTAS QUESADILLAS TACOS CHALLUPAS

Cons: Too Affordable 👌🏼, Too Nice 😇, Way Too Good To Just Have 1 Location 😎🔥🙏🏻

Very good taste!!!

This place was hard to find at first but once we found it, myself and my family were very impressed with the quality and taste of the food. Even my mom who is very skeptical and picky when it comes to vegan food was very impressed.

Pros: Decent price , Great authentic taste

Cons: Hard to find, Not much seating if any

Best Mexican food

Best real Mexican tasting food in San Antonio and it happens to be vegan, cruelty free, oil free, gluten free and guilt free.

Pros: It tastes like the real thing , It is well located up in the Northeast area , It has a lot of tasty options, all made to order

Cons: It is not open everyday and not many hours.

Are you sure the food is oil free? Just want to double check because I eat oil free, but I am pretty sure those chips are deep fried.

Gorditas and Torta Ahogada

I picked up my order of gordita's (al pastor) and torta ahogada on a Friday and it was very good! When you're eating the food you can tell that they love what they are doing. While I waited for my order, I was given mini tacos to eat which were delicious as well. The couple cooking was very friendly and enjoy what theyre doing. The prices are more than reasonable.

Pros: Good food, Prices, Friendly

Cons: I wish they were available more

Delicious!

This couple can veganize everything and anything! They have their own menu but have accepted custom requests. Their tortas ahogadas are amazing! Their tacos and sopes as well, they make the best salsas too. Their desserts are heavenly, the raw cheesecakes and brownies are my favorite. Definitely my favorite place to order vegan food from in SA.
