Delicious vegan tacos

I had three different vegan tacos (they are clearly marked in the menu) as well as a roasted onion with salt and lime juice as an appetizer. Everything was fresh and delicious, and the place itself has a very no-nonsense, local vibe. I heartily recommend it!

Nice vegan Tacos!

There are three vegan variations, all of which are extremely tasty. Overall, the second best tacos I've had in Mexico so far. The variations were unusual and weren't just grilled vegetables pastor-style. My companion ate tacos with meat, none of which were convincing, so the vegan versions are also recommended for meat eaters!

The ambience is like a typical taqueria in Mexico. Plastic plates, music and wobbly chairs, so very authentic, which is what I was hoping for from a place like this.

Yum

The venue is a basic plastic chairs and tables authentic taqueria vibe, which was exactly what we were looking for. I had the mushroom and garlic tacos and the guacamole with corn tacos. I also had the lemonade which was very refreshing. The waitstaff were very friendly and you could see that the restaurant was a favorite among locals and tourists; vegans and non-vegans alike.

Pros: In the downtown core, Vegan options reflected authentic local cuisine, popular

3 Options!

There are 3 clearly labeled vegan options. I tried the corn/guac and the chaya tacos. Both were top notch. I also liked their horchata. Would love to try the vegan apps too! Watch out for the flirty waiter!!

So fun we ate here twice.

The first time, we ordered one of each vegan option. They were all delicious.

We decided to go back before we left (food hopping combined with the tamale guy on paseo de montejo) and got our favorite - the chaya tacos! So delicious.

They were fine

Nothing exciting, you need fo eat a few to feel full as very small. Have had much better vegan tacos elsewhere.

Perhaps the best no-nonsense tacos in Yucatan

Small, busy, no frills canteen style place with plastic chairs and plastic table cloth. 3 types of vegan tacos available: esquited, spinach pumpkinseed, and mushroom. They come with sauces and pickled onions in a tortilla that's beyond perfect. You're getting yourself into an earthy, juicy, well-seasoned mess crying tears of joy and chillies. Some locals came just after the kitchen closed and they loudly sighed and moaned in disappointment which should explain all.

Best tacos in Yucatan made with local ingredients

Found this place on lonely planet as a cheap option to eat. I was ready to ask for changes to the options available, as usual, but was surprised by a section of vegan tacos that turned out to be the best ones I had in yucatan - including the ones in vegan diners across the peninsula.
The place is far from fancy or quiet. It’s definitely worth it!!

Awesome tacos

Great little taco place with vegan options. Stumbled upon this place in Merida one night and ended up going back more than once. Delish vegan tacos and cheap beer. Awesome prices.
