Serves meat, vegan options available. Mexican-fusion restaurant offers two different types of vegetarian burritos and tacos: rice and beans and grilled tofu (easily made vegan with no cheese or sour cream). Other vegetarian items are salads, quesadillas, a black bean quinoa burger, and a grilled tofu wrap (all of which could be easily made vegan). Fun, low-key atmosphere and great specials throughout the week.

Delicious!

Our server was a vegetarian and was well educated about the vegan options! The guacamole was fresh, chips were hot and fresh, and our burritos were so good. The tofu is very well marinated, seasoned, and grilled. It is not like your usual second thought bland tofu option at all! The serving sizes were generous and I left very satisfied with my meal.

The non-vegans in the family were also very happy with their meals too.

Pros: Great Service , So Fresh!, Big portions

Cons: No labeled vegan options, No vegan cheese

Fresh and delicious!

There were several vegan/GF options on the menu, and they were easy to find and order. Tasty beans, rice, tofu, grilled peppers/onions, guac, and several house made salsa. Wished I could have had the house made black bean/quinoa burger, but it has cheese in the recipe and is therefore not vegan.

Pros: Several yummy vegan/GF options, Tasty beans, rice, tofu, grilled peppers/onions , Fun atmosphere

Cons: Pricey (but worth it), Have to pay a la carte for everything

Vegan Dream

This was a great place for both me and my husband. I had the Callie wrap w/o cheese and cilantro garlic fries. Everything was delicious and so many other options for vegetarians or vegans. The salsa Verde was spectacular! Great service!!!Please check it out if you can!

Pros: Vegan options

Cons: Very satisfied

Tofu Fun in the Outer Banks!

My extended family and I enjoyed a wonderful lunch at the Bad Bean Baja Grill! I think they were expecting some "weird vegan place," when I suggested the grill, but all were pleasantly surprised by the menu. I ordered a grilled tofu burrito, and it was delicious! I think the others ate shrimp or something.

5 Star Veggie options not 4

OK... Walk in and the menu offerings are almost veggie by default. It was veggie and optionally add meat. A nice way to go. And... The food was the best we had on OBX north of Avon. Highly recommended.

Pros: Lots of veggie options, not an afterthought

Cons: None

A generic Mexican restaurant on a really busy road

A run of the mill Mexican restaurant. They will accommodate vegans, several veggie options on menu. Indifferent food

Pros: Several soy or rice with bean options for vegans

Cons: Nothing special, cheap fast food

A great find in Outer Banks

Saw this restaurant listed on HappyCow but no reviews. Decided to go in with my 16-year-old non-vegan nonvegetarian son. We were on vacation from Orlando and I really wanted to find someplace with vegan options for lunch. I was pleasantly surprised to find a menu had quite the array of vegan and vegetarian optionsand items that could become vegan. I spoke to what I believe was the owner manager and he said he is a carnivore but most of his family are vegan and you can see it reflected in the menu. I took pictures of both sides of the menu I recommend if you're vegan in the Outer Banks to go check this place out.
