Great tasting food

Traveling and found this gem on Happy Cow. Food was great and plentiful, the only reason I did not give 5 stars was there no vegan cheese. I had the enchilada and my bf had tofu tacos. We also ordered guacamole which was also good. Salsa was yummy and just the right amount of spice.

Pros: Great taste, Huge portions

Cons: No vegan cheese or vegan sour cream

Good Mexican food if you’re patient

Recently visited this restaurant (used to be Anita’s) and was promptly sat down given chips and salsa and asked what did we want to drink. They also have delicious guacamole which tasted freshly made. Ten minutes later, we received our drinks then placed our food order. Was happy to see that they have a separate vegetarian menu and are willing to add tofu to any of those options. I ordered 2 Cajun tofu taco plate with rice and beans and others ordered a veggie burrito and a tostada salad. Tofu tacos were surprisingly filling along with the black beans and Spanish rice and other who were with me enjoyed their food as well. The portion sizes were decent and my only recommendation is that they add vegan cheese to give vegans more flexibility.

The only warnings I would give is that the salsa that comes with the chips is spicy. We also waited thirty minutes to receive refills and our check but I’m gonna chalk that up to it being busy. Bring your patience and be clear you want no cheese on your food and you’ll be fine.
