vegan empanadas🥟 - Edit
you have to try the empanadas!!! they have soyrizo and vegan cheese so it doesn’t feel like they’re lacking at all. so so delicious and filling. you get a huge portion for a fair price too. most things can be made vegan which is an absolute dream. love this place and would definitely recommend

Excellent authentic Mexican - Edit
Food is fresh and well-prepared, seasoned just right. They are vegan friendly so just ask and they'll nix the animal products. Only downside is they are often out of the mock meats. Other than that, highly recommended. Nice view, too.

Exceeded Expectations! - Edit
Ordered through DoorDash and was blown away, even after reading all the rave reviews here. Not common to find a vegan friendly place on the coast, even less common is one that's actually GOOD at turning something vegan, and not just throwing something together that you're super unsure of (think "do these beans have lard in them...?")
Read moreWe called in to double check the order notes to veganize the taco/burrito, and they were super helpful, kind, and made us feel really confident that they knew what vegan meant. Even threw something up on the menu for us to order!
The food is great even through delivery, the service is amazing, what more could you ask for? Try it!
Pros: Great food, Great service, Knowledgeable staff (about veganism)
Cons: None, will be coming back often!!

Vegan chorizo and vegan cheese!!! Tons of options - Edit
This place offers vegan cheese and chorizo. Their menu doesn't list vegan cheese, but does state almost anything can be made vegan! Just FYI! The flavors are fantastic and so is the view. I got the French fry burrito made vegan and had it covered in enchilada sauce. It's huge I had to get the second half to go. The vegan chorizo platter was also fantastic! They also offer tacos, tortas, enchiladas, taquitos, nachos, and nacho fries.

Maybe next time - Edit
I really wanted to love this place. I appreciate that they’re willing to veganize their dishes…. But, the empanada came with different fillings than the server offered, and the vegan cheese tasted strange (spoiled?). If I lived in the area, I’d give it another chance though and see if something else would be tasty to me.

Hidden vegan gem - Edit
Right on the water!
Read moreSmall little place that will make everything but chili rellenos vegan. And! The best part! When I said I was vegan they were genuinely thrilled to share their optiins.
Is this place a vegan place full of lots of greens, no, it is a while in the wall Mexican place. Which is sometimes harder to find them the latter.
If you're vegan do your best to head in over and support them.

First, everyone was so welcoming and nice. They know how to spoil us vegans for sure.
Read moreThe vegan burrito was delicious and there was so much yummy stuffing! The soy chorizo was good. Did not have the vegan cheese, but it is available.

The non vegan had the special, tamales, and said they were super good.

Would rate 5 stars if I could! - Edit
A bit of a hidden gem in Astoria. I already had high hopes for this place based on reviews but the food and service exceeded expectations. The host seated us on the patio (gorgeous view) and brought water to us, our pup, and offered to fill my water bottle.
Read moreWe ordered pico & chips, a mangonada, and two wet vegan burritos with soy chorizo, covered in enchilada sauce. THE BURRITOS? YOURE KIDDING. SO. GOOD. Oh! And very reasonably priced! Seriously, I cannot wait to go back. Most items on the menu can be made vegan by request so I’ll have lot’s to look forward to trying in the future.
If you’re in the area and looking for a place to eat, please consider giving this place enough. I couldn’t recommend it more!
Pros: Affordable , Lots of delicious vegan options, Beautiful view

No vegan cheese, but no problemo - Edit
Vegan burritos smothered in sauce, and so much flavor. I had mole, spouse had enchilada, both loved it. Also tried a Sope and was good, but the burrito was perfect. Was a good portion of food with beans, rice, veggies, and even avocado inside. Asked about vegan cheese and didn't have on a Wednesday in april 2021.
Read morePros: Flavor, Horchata, Burrito size
Cons: Chips were a bit meh., Guac was lacking seasoning and on the smaller side

I ate here with my family as vegan eats are hard to find in Astoria. I was pleasantly surprised when I saw that the menu stated they could modify many items to be vegan so I asked the waitress for a recommendation and was not disappointed.
