So Many Options! - Edit
Eating my first meal from there now - the 3 Taco dish. Filling, tasty, definitely get your money's worth! Salsa has a weird fruity taste, but other than that, the meal is delicious. TONS of clearly marked vegan items on the menu.
Pros: Vegan options
Cons: Fairly priced, Large portions

Fun Vegan Dining Experience! - Edit
My son and I went here for lunch today. The many Vegan options were clearly marked on the menu. Our server was knowledgeable about what items were/weren't vegan. We had the burrito & empanada plates and are looking forward to trying more dishes next time we're here. Prices are affordable, servings were generous and the service was excellent!
Pros: Awesome Customer Service, VERY vegan friendly, Many tasty options

Lots of vegan options! - Edit
Tons of delicious vegan options that are all clearly marked as being able to be made vegan. Everything we have tried (which is most of the vegan items) are all good. Recommend the tofu scramble, veggie empanada, veggie carne adovado tacos, enchiladas & the guacamole. Just mention you are vegan & they will ensure to put no dairy in your food. Only 4 stars b/c not completely vegan.
Pros: Lots of vegan options, Small family run business with friendly owner, Very affordable
Cons: Lots of non-vegan options, Not open on Saturday. , No vegan cheese options.

Yum! - Edit
Went here with my boyfriend, and we tried the veg empanada as well as a potato dish who's name is escaping me right now. All the vegan items (or ones that could easily be made vegan) were very clearly marked, and there were a LOT. The food was all good. Not mind blowingly amazing, but good with nice portion sizes and a fair price. I think this is a great downtown lunch option for vegans.
Pros: Good value, Good food, Tons of options
Cons: Not all veg
