A Good Meal - Edit
El Loco is very good about catering to vegans. I found that their staff was knowledgeable about what was vegan and how to 'veganize' other options.
Try the tofu mole if you're looking for something interesting!
Pros: staff, food

Good food but watch out - Edit
I've been here three or four times in the past and the food was pretty good. I like that they have vegan items! However, two times I've been here there was meat in my vegan entree, including a large hunk of pork (or something) in a vegan soup. I might give it another try next time I'm downtown.

great for vegans - Edit
I'm a regular here. There are not a ton of vegan options but what they do have is really delicious and the staff is well-informed on what is and can be made vegan. The veggie chili and tostada grande are great. House-made cilantro salad dressing is vegan. I would love it if this place would add tofu sour cream and vegan soy cheese to the menu, but I don' t think the menu has changed in 20 years so I doubt it will happen.
Pros: great staff, strong margaritas, fresh food
Cons: no soy alternatives
