We had no idea this place was fully veg until we got here. Just saw tacos and a high rating. Happy accident. Wife is vegetarian, I like meat. This place was aamzing. Flavorful, filling, variety. Can't say enough good things. This plac3 is on our list, super casual, couple alc drink options and some agua fresca that's to die for. Definitely check this place out!

*The salsa is out of this world!

Amazing vegetarian Mexican food. Tried the black bean enchiladas, kale and potato tacos. My only complaint is that there isn’t one closer to where I live — @chaiatacos, for what it’s worth, I think you would do very well in Austin, TX 🙃

Clean, fresh taste, reasonable prices, and a fun stop, between Apple classes at Carnegie Library nearby…
I felt like I was getting younger with each bite… ha ha… Amazing corn tortilla flavor - you don’t get that very often anymore…
The Green Gazpacho is a refreshing side that should not be missed…
