Bad experience!

I ordered from the ‘vegan/vegetarian’ menu the vegan meat dish - obviously from the vegan menu and even said to the waitress - ‘vegan beef’ - but was given a plate of real beef/ sour cream/cheese. When I asked why, she told me they didn’t have the vegan beef available. I ended up reordering something else (which was super mediocre/way overpriced).
When I asked what they would do with the meat meal she said they would throw it away. Overall worst experience I’ve had ordering food as a vegan.

Mexican food made Vegan!

Montezumas has delicious Mexican food which can be made vegan! Offers vegan cheese and refried vegan beans. Family orientated and friendly staff. Nachos are my fave so I was very pleased they offered a vegan option.

Pros: Vegan cheese

Cons: Charges extra for vegan options, Guacamole could not be veganised

Vegan Menu!

Great to see a good size vegan menu. Vegan sour cream and cheese with mock meats available. I don’t eat mock meats, beans do the job for me.
Would order the burrito again but they put too much sour cream inside, so wouldn’t bother with the sour cream next time as it would be more enjoyable without. Cheese was nice. All the food has always been fresh and enjoyable.

Pros: Lots of options for everyone

So so bad

They have a 'vegan menu's that's not available. The food was horrible. Bland slop. Don't even bother.

Pros: Tequila

Cons: Horrible food, half the menu not available.

Just get the nachos

This Mexican restaurant has vegan cheese, vegan sour cream and vegan meat alternatives! ***ATMOSPHERE: It’s best to get there early because it does get busy. The tables are very close together and it’s pretty loud. The wait staff are very friendly but not very experienced and the service is slow, they also forgot things and we had to remind them. ***FOOD: We started with the nachos and added all the extras like jalapeños, guacamole, vegan sour cream etc and they were amazing!! Then I ordered an enchilada and it tasted exactly the same as the nachos except rolled in a soft tortilla... Not worth it at all. I wish I’d just stuck with the nachos and made it a big portion. We also asked for hot sauce and when we asked where it was, we were told the chefs make it from scratch... Nice idea but they should have it ready to go or offer a bottle of Tapatio. ***DESSERT: I didn’t have room for a churro but they looked good. We had margaritas to drink, not a fan of the blended style but the shaken was ok... Just expensive!

Pros: Delicious nachos, Vegan Cheese & Vegan Sour Cream, Full Vegan Menu (see pics)

Cons: Service is slow , Expensive food & drink, Loud

Delicious

They have a separate vegetarian and vegan menu with the vegan items clearly labelled. The staff are friendly and knowledgeable about the vegan options. I had the tacos with vegan cheese, vegan sour cream and guacamole. The meal tasted delicious and I'd recommend it.

Pros: Vegan menu, vegan cheese, friendly staff
