Hyped, but for a reason - Edit
I came to this place after a not so good experience at Gracias Madre the other night, hoping to be happier here. The first impression was: Even smaller, also very crowded, waiting for a free table.
Read moreThe lady in charge though was super nice, made sure to hand me a menu so I can check out their dishes while waiting and took her time to exchange a few nice words, although she was really busy. I am grateful she also allowed me to use their restroom, although it is obviously not really made for customers.
The food arrived rather quick and what shall I say: They managed to make the fillings taste great without the overuse of soy protein you experience in some other places. The tacos were fresh and tasty and the salsas also amazing.
It was definitely worth the wait and I am hoping to have a chance for a revisit.
Pros: Very friendly owner/staff, Great food
Cons: Very crowded

It's fine - Edit
Keep an eye out when looking for it. It's small. I had a few tacos and two beers. Great place to sit and watch people walk by. I have nothing negative to say. Tacos were good. Not amazing but good. The server was nice.

Great for late night! - Edit
After a long day, we stopped here for some tamales and esquites. The agua de jamaica cocktail was perfect too. Small place, look for the orange awning and tables.
Read moreThe tamales were decent. I’m not a fan of mushrooms, but they were the only vegan tamales we could find so I had to try them and they were good!

Taquitos con tortilla a mano y bebidas! - Edit
Los tacos son pequeños y el precio es el de cualquier lugar de uno de tamaño normal, pero el plus es que vienen en tortillas hechas a mano. Los más ricos fueron el de yaca pibil que está dulce y el de pastor negro de setas. El pastor regular y el Baja no me encantaron.
Read moreTambién tienen tostadas de atún y estaba muy buena.
Me gustó que tienen también bebidas como micheladas con "clamato" y cantaritos tamaño grande (cazuela) entre otros. Sus mesitas también está a gusto aunque están en la banqueta.
El servicio es bueno y los precios están de acuerdo a la zona que es de extranjeros.

Dont pay attention to their closing times - Edit
I would leave a 1 star review but the app wont allow it's litteraly 8:50pm more than 1 hr of their closing time and they just said no! Just delivery or eat on the street!!!!
Read moreI would not recomend to anyone as a vegan traveler.
The staff was very rude and unhelpfull..

I couldn't agree less! You're not eating on the street. It has side walk seating which is very common in the area. Happy Cow is not Google and it relies on people updating business hours and such. It's on you for not double checking. We had a beautiful experience there so much so we went back 4 times

So memorable and delicious - Edit
A real authentic hole in the wall spot in Mexico City. We loved how lovingly the food was cooked and then everything felt home made not artificial.

Cute spot - Edit
One of our favourite taco spots during our stay in Mexico City, and one of the cheaper options around Roma to.
Read moreWe enjoyed the cauliflower and chickpea taco options. The Nachos were also fantastic.

Good looking menu, mixed results - Edit
I tried their green chickpea chorizo tacos, Chile cascabel with red chickpea chorizo tacos, mushroom barrio quesadilla and their huitlacoche quesadilla. Everything was good enough but nothing really popped.

Excellent vegan nachos & tacos 🌮 - Edit
Just flew into Mexico City this evening and was itching for some authentic tacos. This cute hole in the wall lived up to the hype! While it was slow service (50 minutes), we were lucky we were the last order before they started to wind down the kitchen. For reference, we arrive around 8:30/8:45pm and they don’t officially close until 10pm. There’s 6 small tables outdoors.
Read moreWe ordered the following:
- Nachos: delicious!! Would come back just for these nachos
- Black pastor made from mushroom (taco): good but a bit underwhelming
- Baja made with the fired eggplant and cole slaw: very good! Tasty sauce and combination of elements
The nachos were a generous portion (made to share) and the tacos were each a small single taco. Wish we had ordered one more dish to feel completely full. But this meal definitely hit the spot! Will definitely come back to try the quesadilla and burrito!

Flavorful Vegan Mexican 🇲🇽 - Edit
It’s a really small spot, but the food was some of the best we had in Mexico City. Everything was super fresh and flavorful. The chickpea chorizo nachos were definitely the highlight — so good and packed with flavor!

One of a kind in CDMX. SO GOOD! - Edit
Delicious! First time eating at Taco Santo and can’t wait to go back! Was thrilled to have piping hot “gringas” with chickpea chorizo and soft melty vegan cheese. This is exactly the vegan Mexican food I love - nothing processed, no junk, just whole food prehispánico ingredients. Was such a happy treat to have sopa de tortilla. Reunited with my childhood favorite, plant based version and every bit as satisfying. Friendly service, quaint sidewalk location.
Read morePros: Melty vegan cheese, Chickpea Chorizo, Sopa Azteca & salsas

Very gourmet, healthy and delicious - Edit
I typically lean towards vegan junk food, and this place's is not that at all. Still I loved it and will certainly be back for more. My wife and I tried all but one taco from their menu and it was hard to tell which one we liked the most.

Amazing authentic food - Edit
Super tasty traditional tacos, soups, and more made without fake meats or other highly processed ingredients. The prices are significantly lower than in other places, maybe because there's no indoor seating - just a few tables on the sidewalk. This completes the overall experience though, making it a great vegan option if you seek real Mexican food.
