Cena Vegan is a restaurant that offers Mexican vegan food, known as the best in the area. The carnitas torta and carne asada fries are popular meals, with generous portions and great taste. The handmade corn tortillas enhance the food's flavor, making it even better. The vegetables and beans in the torta are well-blended, allowing diners to savor the flavors. The loaded fries are also a must-try. While some of their meat substitutes, such as the one used in the birria, barbacoa, and al pastor, have a beancurd texture that may not absorb flavors as well as others, their asada tacos have been highly praised for their amazing flavor and texture. Customers have noted that Cena Vegan uses fresh, homemade ingredients, with one reviewer stating that "EVERYTHING is made from scratch." Prices are reasonable, making it a great option for those seeking a delicious and unique dining experience. The restaurant is a welcome addition for long-time vegans in the area.
Located in a food hall in an old bank building, Cena Vegan has ample paid parking and friendly staff. Diners can enjoy various options, including the Mushroom Guisado, which is natural and free from fillers. The medium salsa has a smoky, tangy tomatillo richness, while the hot salsa is notably spicy. The restaurant is a reliable source of vegan yumminess, perfect for sharing dishes like carne asada fries or a big vegan burrito for leftovers. Overall, Cena Vegan is a place that brings joy to its customers, with people appreciating the genuine effort to provide tasty vegan options.
