Great option in Old Town

We sat out on the patio. It was lovely but a bit chilly and they fired up the patio heater for us.

They bring out four different salsas with the chips. The jalapeño salsa was amazing.

The only item marked as vegan on the menu was the tempeh tacos. I’m sure other items could be made vegan. The tacos were delicious and nicely presented.

I visit the area regularly and will definitely go back.

This is not your typical Mexican menu. The tempeh taco was excellent as was the flight of salsas served with the chips. Several vegetarian options that could be made vegan. Definitely going back!

Pros: Tempeh tacos, Flight of very different salsas, Great atmosphere
