This was a must try on my list in part because when I stuck my head in passing by the staff wowed me with samples. I returned and everything they had suggested was perfect. If you aren't into some bold southwest there is little else.

I come here every Thursday after class and I absolutely love it!!! They have plenty of vegan options and you always get stuffed!! Also Neyra (the cashier) is super nice and friendly!! Fast service!! I ordered Street Corn en Fuego, Fajita del Rey and Shredded Kale and Quinoa with vegan mozzarella and adobo tofu ?

Really good place to get a solid protein bowl, the service was very good the food did take a bit long which surprised me but other than that it’s a nice place to visit.

We ordered 2 gluten free burritos. One of them came on a normal wheat wrap, so one of us couldn’t eat. The rice was so dry it was comparable to Filiberto’s. The beans had no flavor aside from ridiculous amounts of raw onion. The chicken & the crema also had 0 flavor whatsoever. It wasn’t even spicy, I felt like I was eating a freezer burrito. For the price + the commute I would rate this experience a 0/10. Definitely wont be back to this location as it has gone significantly downhill over the last year. Very disappointing, considering the Scottsdale location we used to go to (which was great) closed down.

Delicious, and so many options, including vegan options! I had the spicy cilantro bowl with vegan chick'n, and it was fantastic Also got a margaritas for happy hour ($5) which was good, but quite small, looked like about 10-12 ounces and mostly ice, so not the best deal. Overall, a great spot for a big group of friends to all hang out!

Good, consistent service. Trendy and delicious margaritas. Love that they use Espolon tequila and give you the option to upgrade to other well known tequilas. Beautiful interior space. Nice outdoor seating with a view and great people watching. Kids meal is a great value. Get the chicken with the rice and beans for your littles.Cons: Vegan nacho cheese is almost inedible. It does have a good flavor but it’s like someone poured a thin oil and water together and called it cheese. It is very watery and oily, and made my stomach hurt for the rest of the evening.The margaritas don’t have very much liquid in them. I love the cups but in three sips they’re gone. Would appreciate more value there.The staff also felt the need to stack chairs loudly outside at dinner time, for no apparent reason. It’s a pet peeve of mine when staff tries to close areas of the restaurant prematurely at 7pm.

After I eat their chicken burrito I put on overalls and watched Deliverance. There is Nothing Mexican or ethnic at all about this Burrito. It taste like they poured an entire bottle of wine ? on the meat This seems like something Duck Dynasty would eat. This is not Mexican food this is white entirely. The Asian girl at the counter was nice. They put her there to attract old White men now it makes sense.

The food was great. My wife and daughter both have celiac and were able to get gluten-free tacos. They do a great job with allergies.

This is great option for grabbing a bite to eat with your friends. We found this place just by walking by ! They have a good option of 3 tacos for $8 on Taco Tuesday so couldn’t pass that up! Honesty it was so cute inside it was hard not to take a photo. I love the way it’s decorated. Very tasteful. I liked 2 out 3 of my tacos so I was pretty satisfied about that . The guacamole here was great ! They have water available to all with mason jar glasses to sip from . Also there is a chill bar inside with lots of wine options! Margaritas are $5 on Tuesdays.

The dishes here are highly customizable and almost all of their base configurations seem to be vegan and you just add their vegan proteins. The vegan queso dip is a highlight. The Baja tacos with fried mushrooms is delectable, not a single disappointing dish! Updated from previous review on 2023-07-20

Ordered from Uber Eats. Asked for no mushrooms on quesadilla and it came with so many of them. Made the dish taste gross so I had to throw it away. Also ordered the churro bites and no sauce with them. Employees need to double check orders before Uber picks up meals. I was looking forward to trying the food, but so disappointed.

One of the best places to go if you are vegan, highly recommended. I’ve had 100+ orders from here and will continue having more. Main reason I go back is also due to their chipotle creama, it goes with anything.
