Excellent Healthy Mexican Food! - Edit
This is one of our family’s favorite restaurant! My daughter feels safe eating here as there is no risk of gluten cross contamination as with other restaurants that claim to have gluten free dining. She can relax and order ANYTHING on the menu. The nachos are unique and habit forming…🙄 The pinto beans are perfect and the Spanish rice is moist and better than any Mexican rice I’ve had in this city.
Read moreYes, it’s a bit pricey, but good food, cooked with care, isn’t dollar menu priced! It also is full of nutrition, versus that dollar menu….which is just junk and chemicals.

Can’t go wrong - Edit
I’ve been here multiple times and the food is always delicious. There is a wide variety of vegan options, TexMex, takes on traditional Mexican, and dessert. My dad, a non vegan, was blown away and commented he’s never been somewhere and liked everything but here he did.

Delicious TexMex - Edit
So so good! This was one of our favorite food stops in San Antonio. The food was so tasty and colorful too. We didn’t realize how big the full plate of nachos would be, they were literally towering over our other plates! Not a bad problem to have if you want leftovers, but maybe go for a half plate if you’re not super hungry lol. They have a nice outdoor eating area in back.

So good! - Edit
The food here is great! The beans and rice were delicious and frankly they are the thing we remember most about this restaurant. The tacos were good too. We left very full and satisfied. It's located off a fairly busy street which made it somewhat challenging to get to, but if you're a local and know the roads well, I'm sure it's a breeze.

5 Stars - Quality and Affordable - Edit
Great dining experience overall. The portion sizes are very generous and great quality as well! Also, the food has great taste profiles which makes it feel like a unique eating experience. We got the fried mushroom tacos, vegan nachos, and kale/spinach enchiladas. Our plates came with Mexican rice, beans, and a small salad. The rice and beans were out of this world. Staff was also very friendly. Cant say enough good things about this place.

The food here is amazing. First vegan chile relleno I have encountered, and it was a thing of beauty (not to mention incredible flavor!) My friend had the portobello chicharrones, also delicious! We split the nopales mini tacos. I want to order 10 of everything from this menu! We will be back often!

What a delicious, delicious restaurant. - Edit
The vibe, the food, the waitstaff and the ambiance of this place is awesome. I was traveling through San Antonio and was so elated to find a not only vegan restaurant, but a authentic Mexican restaurant. Everything was delicious. I had fried avocado tacos and the beet salad plus a cinnamon cupcake. Will come again next time I come through.

AMAZING -Do Not Miss! - Edit
Enjoyed THE BEST vegan Mexican food here! The “chicken” enchiladas were mind blowingly good. We also loved the nachos, smoky carrot dog flautas, and tamales. I eat whole food, plant-based but my husband and son will eat anything and they also loved the food. Don’t miss the vegan, gluten-free cupcakes.

A good experience - Edit
The food here was pretty good, but it unfortunately did lack flavor in some dishes. (hence the 4 stars) Our waitress was friendly, and overall we had a good dinner.

Vegan Tex-Mex done right! - Edit
We’ve been here a handful of times and loved everything we tried. A large menu to choose from, but we loved the nachos, flautas (ask for sour cream🤤), tacos al pastor, and tamales!!! We will even be ordering a few dozen tamales for Christmas!!! This place is a must try for vegan Tex mex!!
