Not bad but poor service

1 Posted on 02 / 20 / 2012

The food was okay, not a favorite of mine. New Orleans offered much better vegan good. The service was terrible! The manager was drunk, yelled at us because we were still sitting at our table (waiting for our check). She was upset about something after talking to us and threw some dishes in the trash can (close to our table) and missed and threw food on one of our friends. She didn't say sorry or take anything off our bill. She gave us a towel to chean it up.

Pros: Food wasn't bad
Cons: Needs more vegan choices, Services was terrible

We were starving and I remember seeing this restaurant on happy cow. The previous reviewer gave it a good review. We don't quite agree. We ordered vegetarian fajitas which were much better than the mexican combo plate which had at least 1/2 pound of cheese. couldn't eat most of it. it was nice that it has veggie options on the menu, but the food is just mediocre.

Pros: Friendly staff, Veg options
Cons: Not the greatest quality, A LOT of cheese

Authentic Mexican Vegan Options

4 Posted on 12 / 13 / 2011

When you step off the street it is like stepping into another country. This is like a typical Mexican cantina with homey service, fresh food, and latin atmosphere. There are very few vegan or vegetarian options on the menu, but try the platano fajitas. As well, the staff will customize almost anything on the menu to suit your requests. I have found this to be quite common in Latin countries, especially South America, but not so much here, where they prefer just to remove items as opposed to substitutions. As well, vegan food is hard to find in the French Quarter, so this is definitely a place to try. We ate here several times and were never disappointed.

Pros: Fresh cooking, Excellent food, Very flexible kitchen staff
Cons: Few vegan options
