Printed vegan menu, always appreciated!

Better than average Mexican restaurant (authentic-ish street tacos, house-made chips and salsa, homey decor) with a separate vegan menu! Usually with Mexican, you're just taking things off and hoping for beans without pork but they had yummy elote (street corn), a range of vegan salsas including mole poblano, and build your own tacos with a choice of 3 vegan fillings, as well as quite a few other small and large plates. Vegan mozzarella they used was better than most. Friendly service.

Pros: Elote, Chips & salsa, Open out of season

Cons: None really!

Best in OC!

I always get the vegan tacos with beyond meat, but they have an extensive vegan menu! Favorite new place in OC.

Delicious

We got the vegetarian, smashed black bean and beyond meat tacos, all “vegan style” and they were all delicious. Will definitely make this a regular place to eat when in town. We came right at the start of the off season and it was ready for pick up in 10 minutes.

Pros: Good variety for vegans, Vegan style option so easy to order

At least 20 items on the ALL Vegan menu, got the quesadilla (with beyond crumble), delicious. Also tried the vegan steak taco’s. Really great food and nice place!

Fantastic

This restaurant has a whole vegan menu, and the food is delicious. I got the burrito, which I ate half of at the restaurant and saved the other half for later because the meal (including the chips and salsa) was so filling. The only downside is that there are no vegan desserts.

Pros: Vegan menu , Delicious food, Attentive waitstaff

Cons: No vegan dessert

Vegan Tacos need I say more!

There aren’t a ton of vegan options in Ocean City, but Papi’s Tacos has a full vegan menu and offers vegan meat substitutes on their regular menu. Portions were large, and the food was delicious! Definitely worth it!

Pros: Vegan menu, Vegan meat substitutes , Outdoor seating

Cons: Service was a little slow

Went with the wimpy option… still delicious!!

I was so impressed with my tacos! Delicious beyond meat crumbles on warm flour tortillas, with veggies and cheese too. I had the vegan gringo street tacos and I would have them again and again.

Pros: Entirely vegan menu available!, Also have a gluten free menu, Lots of options (not just substitutes)

Cons: Can only order street tacos in 2’s

Had a permanent separate VEGAN MENU!

I was so excited to try out Papi's. When we arrived I told the waitress that I was vegan and my husband vegetarian. She said she would be happy to retrieve the vegan menu for me. Both my husband and I had the vegan burrito with Beyond meat and vegan cheese. It was fantastic! Unlike many vegan cheeses the cheese they use did not stick to my teeth. It was flavorful and hearty. I had mine with the mole sauce and my husband had it with the salsa verde.
Went back the next day to order more and forgot to order our burrito with beyond meat and it was filled with extra veggies ( like green beans). I wasn't as keen on this but was still excited.

Pros: full vegan menu available upon request, clean and healthy looking ( not dripping in oil), delicious

Cons: forgetting to order our 2nd order with beyond meat, takeout counter automatically takes tip w/o inform

Service wasn't great but food was really good

Ask for vegan menu, it's separate.

Got complementary chips & salsa and then waited 10 mins for our server to come over with water. Other than that, they have lots of options and our food was excellent.

Pros: Separate vegan menu , Great food, Large portions

Cons: Slow service

Full Vegan Menu! GF as well

They have a menu just for vegans and the food was amazing. I did the vegan tostada and nachos from the "little cravings" and the vegan platano's for dessert. The platano is not listed as dessert, it's on the little cravings menu but it was sweet and seriously delicious! I'm vegan and GF, had no trouble with the menu! The whole experience was just wonderful!

Pros: Whole page of vegan options!, Vegan dessert: platano drizzled with Agave , Excellent food, service and price

Cons: None!

Nice surprise at Ocean City

It’s great they have a full vegan menu!

We were pleased with the selection, staff, service and food.

Obviously, it’s not “real” Mexican food, but it was pretty good.

We sat on the screened in porch, but the restaurant itself is massive with all types of booths and tables and outdoor seating

Pros: Service , Food, Price

Cons: Cheese could have been melted more.

Great vegan nachos

Loved the vegan nachos with extra veggies from this location was super satisfying and hearty! The guac & salsa chips were also wonderful. Was glad to find a decent vegan option in OC while there is plenty of non-veg options for others in your party. The street tacos were also a pleasant surprise as well as the rice although, I must say the beans were lacking in texture and flavor. The vegan elote was certainly lacking though as I saw what the elote looked like from the regular menu. The vegan elote did not have a vegan sub for the traditional creamy sauce on the cob instead it was simply unmelted vegan shredded cheese on top with virtually no seasoning. While I was grateful to have the pleasure of eating here do not expect too much authentic cuisine especially for the vegan options. Overall it was a good choice.

Pros: Separate vegan menu is convenient , Vegan nachos and apps were great

Cons: Loss of quality in some vegan options
