Good build your own tacos

The build your own tacos have multiple options for vegan and vegetarian in terms of protein, and were delicious. Service was quick and reasonably priced too, which was certainly a bonus!

Great Taco Franchise in Kalamazoo

Barrio has recently expanded into downtown Kalamazoo, and it is a welcome addition to a kooky downtown. Barrio is typically a franchise, but it still is a smaller midwest franchise that does not suffer in quality.

Iconically, the most eye-catching part of the restaurant is the painted wall murals of dancing skeletons that welcome you to come in, eat, and enjoy.

The vegan options are inclusive. There is a prebuilt vegan taco (El Vegano) but the build your own taco selection scantron offers a never ending selection of mix and match to suit your desires. - with staples like mushrooms, tofu, sweet potatoes, and black beans to select as a base.

The El Vegano is a solid choice with double shelled and guacamoled in between. The caramelized onions were a highlight. I recommend.

Barrio in Kalamazoo is a great spot to stop for lunch, or come as a group knowing that everyone will be able to build the meal they want.

Pros: Vegan options, Cool wall murals, Outdoor seating

Cons: Not entirely vegan
