Gross - Edit
I visited Matador hoping it'd end up being a great option where I could actually enjoy the guac (shakes fist as Big City Burrito), but it was just...gross. The burrito was alright, and there are tons of sauces, and I always enjoy a bean + potato burrito, but we had to wait like 15 minutes for them to make more fajita veggies, and once we sat down to eat, I got halfway through my burrito, got up to refill my drink, and noticed a bunch of bugs wandering around next to the soda machine. The place was generally dirty, but the bugs really did it for me.

Awesome and locally owned - Edit
Would give it 5 stars if HC would let me. Plenty of options and if you don't know if its vegan... ask! Massive burritos and a great breakfast. Too many sauces to list and they are made in house. Owners and staff are great. They are better than any franchise hands down.

Solid Cheap Burritos with MANY Sauces To Try - Edit
While there are not many vegan options to try at Matador, their base choices are pretty good and there are so so many sauces to try. I especially love going for breakfast since they have fried potatoes which I get with both whole beans (not the refried), grilled veggies, shredded cabbage, pico, and whatever sauce sounds good that day. If they have the fried sweet potatoes I'll often get them with just the black beans and rice during lunch.

Cons: Few vegan options

It was okay - Edit
I was incredibly excited about vegan options here. However, 4 out of the 5 visits I had to here, I was told that the potatoes were vegan. On the 5th visit I was told that they cook them in with fish. Even though, without potatoes, you could still create a vegan meal, they lost my trust.

Best vegan burrito place in town - Edit
Matador is set apart from other burrito places in town for a few reasons. One, the staff is knowledgeable about what is and isn't vegan, and the vegan options are really good--flavored tortillas, rice, beans, sauteed veggies, white and sweet potatoes, guac, and AMAZING salsas/hot sauces. The vegan options are even labeled on the menu. Two, they have a great rotating selection of craft beer on tap (including Grimm Brothers and PCBC) AND in the bottle--and all bottles of beer are under $2, even the microbrews. Three, it's locally owned and operated with a dedication to using local produce and ingredients. It's on the south side of town, but a good place to grab dinner before or after seeing a movie at the nearby Cinemark (I've even brought their burritos into the theater with me before!).

Beware, I just learned the potatoes are not actually vegan even though they advertise it as so. I had a staff member be honest with me about this. :(

Best burritos EVER! - Edit
All of the tortillas (except the cheddar one), both rices, fried sweet or russet potatoes and all three beans (whole black, pinto and refried) are VEGAN! Plus, the owner is super nice to vegans: you get free guacamole on your meal. Plus, you can get chips + beans or salsa or both. Don't forget to get your freshly-grilled veggies. Yes, they grill them after you order -- and they're also no extra charge! Fresh, home made salsas vary with the season. Try their fruit salsas.. they're the best you will ever taste. I recommend the strawberry salsa. But their cranberry is a close second! Don't forget their sweet potato soups (when they have them) and pumpkin salsas, usually in the fall. A.M.A.Z.I.N.G.
Read moreOh, they give huge portions so you may want to split your meal with a friend.
Enjoy it! And be sure the owner knows you appreciate all of his yummy vegan options.
Pros: Many options., Knowledgeable staff., Generous owner.
Cons: Also serve flesh.
