Plenty of options 🌱🌯 - Edit
More than enough options - most of the burritos could be made vegan, as well as some other choices throughout the menu. Not the best burrito I’ve had, but I did enjoy it. Good Happy Hour deals. Overall would go again if I was in the area.

Pelon's is a must visit - Edit
I discovered Pelon's years ago, and I've been in love ever since. They can basically make most of their menu Vegan, and it tastes so good! No Gardein, actual food they make fresh. Don't sleep on Pelon's!

A lot of options - Edit
I love that almost everything they have can be made vegan and the menu is labled so it makes it super easy to see what can be made vegan, and they have beverages and even desserts available too.

Excellent, so many options - Edit
Everything (with the exception of kids chicken nuggets) can be ordered vegan. The kids menu even specifies that the items can be made vegan. Makes it very easy for kiddos to order. One of the best texmex restaurants I’ve eaten at.

Not too many choices near my hotel, but luckily I found this place. They can make almost everything vegan and have fake steak, chicken, tofu, etc. Friendly and good beer too.

Nothing was listed as vegan on the menu. I asked and he said they could make anything on menu vegan. Had vegan fish tacos which were really good!

Lots of Options - Edit
There were a ton of vegan options here. Aside from being way too expensive, the vegan chicken tacos were bland and honestly disgusting. I got 2 vegan chicken tacos, took one bite, and threw out the rest. I really did not enjoy them at all. The vegan carne asada fries, however, were incredible. If I had only had the fries it would be a 4 star review, if I only had the tacos it would have been a 1.

Favorite place - Edit
I’ve been coming here for many years. It’s a real shame they no longer offer breakfast, because the vegan pancakes and breakfast burritos were the best! The vegan fish tacos are great and the taco salad is amazing. You can sub grilled veggies for any of the vegan meats, but they sometimes accidentally upcharge for this instead of substituting the veggies. Anything on the menu with a flower indicates that it can be make vegan. The watermelon margaritas are also awesome.

Very busy but so many options - Edit
When you are waiting in line you pick up a paper menu and see noted on the bottom right corner they have vegan chicken, soyrizo, vegan cheese and sour cream that can be replaced on any dish. So most of the menu can be vegan. It was pretty awesome. My daughter and I shared nachos. Husband got a fat burrito. The place was so crowded and busy but we were able to get a table after we ordered. There is another location which may not be as busy.

Awesome place with so many vegan options! - Edit
Almost everything on the menu could be made vegan! I had the nachos and they were delicious! They also offered vegan brownies and Whoopi pies. The food came out super quickly and the staff was nice. Only downside was plastic forks/straws/cups and disposable salsa cup.

This restaurant has a lot of vegetarian and vegan options! They even offer vegan cheese, sour cream and veggie "meat" substitutes. Our veggie family of 5 was happy with everything we ordered. You won't be disappointed if you dine here!

enjoyed it - Edit
it was hectic due to current pandemic, many customers were not wearing masks, so I was uncomfortable. we ordered our food at the counter, then sat outside. my Vegan "steak" was an impressive mock meat; I'm thinking it was seitan. would have liked to see some Tofu / Tempeh as a protein option.

Vegan options for everything! - Edit
Such a shame this app won't let you rate 5 for not fully vegan restaurants because this was amazing! They offered plant based options for everything and even had vegan treats at the front of the store.
Read moreI only wish that they offered more healthier drinks. The food was delicious and service was super fast! We were in and out in 30mins; had our food in less than 10!
Pros: Vegan options galore
Cons: Lack of healthy drinks

Love hate relationship - Edit
We love the fact that you can get vegan carne asada! It gives us so many options that are so good like the carne asada fries or tacos , but the shorter cook ALWAYs burns the vegan meat and hides it under everything else , too expensive for mistakes like that. Love that they have My Vegan Sweet Tooth brownies available. Also should use Just egg for breakfast burritos and make a vegan queso
Read morePros: Lots of vegan options, Vegan brownies
Cons: Expensive, Short cook always burns vegan meat, Needs more vegan breakfast options

Best Vegan Mexican Food - Edit
Almost everything on the menu can be made vegan, marked by a groovy little flower. I love their “dude” burrito and their vegan carnitas are charred and so delicious! They offer vegan cheese as well and had desserts from the local bakery “My Vegan Sweet Tooth” which did not disappoint! they also have a really good guac and salsa with endless chips! Definitely a must try if you’re craving that mexican food is vegans never get!
