The food was really good and filling. So glad to find a total vegan restaurant, with traditional Mexican food. I will go back for sure. I had the gordita with brisket and bistec. The brisket needed a little more flavor but the green sauce gave a lot of flavor overall.

We were really excited to try this place after seeing it on triple Ds. The atmosphere and people were great, and I even loved their corner for selling authentic Mexican items. We had the gorditas, nachos and loaded fries, all with different 'flavors' of meat. Each one had a different aftertaste than what we expected from the various 'meats' and traditional seasoning used in them and everything was soft, there was no texture variations. The chips for the nachos were even so light (I'd love them with a basic dip) they kept crumbling apart and I had to eat it with a fork. It felt expensive for what we got (it was just as expensive as if we'd gotten real meat and not vegan alternatives)

We can no longer support a business who thinks it's "exciting" to serve MEAT so that everyone can enjoy food.. sorry but vegan food can be enjoyed by everyone! I know you guys were never on the ethical side as you serve all your food on plastic, but serving and preparing animal products.. we can no longer support that. We are on the ethical side and this means a lot to us. It was amazing food and I hope down the line you reconsider. Editing to add that blocking people for not agreeing with you is insane lol definitely wont think twice to not support here. My comment on your IG post just confirmed what you said, that yall were excited to serve meat. Don't want people to see that huh? DO BETTER
