Solid local spot, not very vegetarian - Edit
This has moved to one block to Miguel Hidalgo, a block south of the main square between the expensive touristy restaurants with patios. It's a tiny local restaurant that specializes in Pozole, a pre-Colombian dish of maize and meat (even pork rinds), with a basket of spices and radish & onion sides.
My two vegan friends didn't have much to choose from.

Diamond in the rough - Edit
I was so glad to find this place... just happened to be walking and saw the "vegetarian" part of their sign prominently displayed. It's run by an owner/chef with a lot of personality. Unfortunately it's tucked away and not very easy to run across; go and support it! She makes a wicked all-veg (vegan or not) pozole with fresh ingredients and traditional accompaniments.
May not always be open; either ring the bell or call before to make sure she's ready for you. Seriously, go give this place a try... it's in a neat area bordering the fascinating market and is perfect for a walk around the Cerillo neighborhood.
Pros: Scrumptious, Friendly, Cheap
Cons: Hard to find, Limited selection, Not always open
