Good Flavor Combinations

Tried all three vegan tacos and each was solid. I ordered to-go so all my knowledge of what was vegan came from the labelled options on the menu, but it seemed like there might be more options to customize other menu items to be vegan as well. I enjoyed the flavor combinations and would definitely go back.

Edit - I went again when in town for work and also tried the vegan churro bites. I wouldn’t recommend those - they literally just looked and tasted like frozen store waffles and the “caramel sauce” was super thin and kind of just tasted like maple syrup. I felt like I was duped into having a side of breakfast waffles with my tacos 😂

Pretty good

A lot of vegan options but nothing explicitly labeled. I had to ask if the horchata was vegan (yes).

Also no outdoor seating even though Google says it does. (I submitted the correction to happy cow.) Prices pretty reasonable.

Fast food tacos have no business being this good

In town for a conference and ate here 2 days in a row. Lots of vegan options but the tacos (vegan chicken tinga) are my fav. Good drinks too!

Organic Mexican

A regular lunch haunt. Usually stick with the Vegan Tacos (sampler of three) or the Torta combo.

Great Organic Options

I wouldn’t say the flavors of the dishes were anything special, but there is a nice variety of vegan options, and the food is organic.

Lots of flavor and vegan options

I’ve been wanting to give this place a try for a while so I’m glad I finally got the chance. I love when non vegan restaurants are so accommodating for vegans.

Pros: Plenty vegan options, Lots of flavor, Clean environment

Cons: Long wait (worth the wait though), Parking

Surprised at the super friendly vegan atmosphere

I’m a LA vegan food snob so when my Lover said let’s go to an omnivore place, I was very skeptical to say the least. But wow - they really do cater to vegans here. The menu is clearly labeled, the staff knew exactly what my options were, the atmosphere is clean and bright. It’s a chain and the menu is fast and Cali-style. All organic. Order at the counter. They have vegan options for each dish and if I remember correctly, those dish categories are: salad, burrito, tacos, quesadilla, bowls, desserts, soup, sides and Aqua frescas. Two levels of seating, outdoor patio, mid-level cost for LA. Which IMO is kind of expensive but for LA it’s considered moderate.

I gave it three stars not because of the food or anything but simply because I won’t give an omnivorous restaurant anythingnhigher than😈So that’s top rating from me for omnivorous.

Pros: Lots of vegan dishes, Clearly labeled, Enjoyable dining areas

Cons: They do serve meat and cheese
