Lots of options and good flavors

I really liked the mole and the horchata, and it's great how large a percentage of the menu can be ordered vegan

So many options

It was delightful to see so many items that could be made vegan. My partner is not vegan and we try to find places that work for both of us. The menu items that could be made vegan were clearly marked. The staff was fantastic. Will visit again next time we are in SF.

Pros: So many options , Great for vegans and non-vegans

Flavors

It's pricey but the mole flavors are amazing. The vegan menu is extensive and everything we tried over several visits was great. I ordered the Chile en Nogada without realizing it was the most expensive vegan option, but it was well worth it. The vegan horchata is a must order as well. The staff is also very friendly and helpful.

Pros: Flavors

Cons: Expensive

Delicious Vegan Mole!

Items that can be made vegan are clearly marked on the menu. Tried the Oaxaca Mole enchiladas and it hit the spot! The mole was rich and savory. Appreciate that they make their own “meat” substitute in house which seem like a blend of tofu & mushrooms. Would totally be back to try their other moles.

Pros: Many vegan options , Affordable pricing , Clearly labeled items on menu

Mole!!

So good! So filling. Staff was great. I loved the vegan ‘meat’ blend which I think was tofu and mushrooms. Very rare to find mole that’s vegan. I tried the Oaxacan mole enchiladas, but wish I could have also tried the tamarind ones. And the cactus and jicama salad looked so good too

Pros: So many options!, Delicious

Amazing selection of veganizable dishes!

The staff was very helpful and almost everything on the menu was marked as vegan options. They had some flavorful sauces I've never had before. We're coming back tomorrow!

Pros: Amarillo mole sauce, Taquitos, Enchiladas

Cons: None

Very tasty, tons of vegan options

Almost everything on the menu had a vegan option! My partner had a Oaxaca Mole enchilada that seemed to be filled with tofu and was very tasty. I sampled their two vegetarian (not vegan) quesadillas. Everything seemed to be made from fresh ingredients. Would definitely come back if we return to Santa Fe!

Pros: Numerous veggie options, Fresh ingredients , Delicious

Very tasty mole. Most menu items have vegan options.

Lots of options. It seems to be mostly substituting tofu in for meat but what we had was tasty. You might have to remind them “Queso Vegano” or “No Queso” if you don’t like vegan cheese.
The staff was very friendly and accommodating.

Pros: Most menu items have a vegan option, Mole!, Friendly staff

Cons: Vegan options could be more creative than sub tofu

Our Favorite Vegan Mole!!!

Fiesta Qaxaca made all my Vegan Mole Dreams come true! Pretty much everything has a Vegan option with a home-made Vegan meat-sub. We had the Mole Sampler with Chips, Vegan Mole Oaxaca, and Vegan Enchiladas, Christmas Style. So good. So Vegan. If you are in Santa Fe, go there!

We came back again, since we were in town! The Amarillo Mole Enchiladas are magnificent, but we still love the classic Oaxaca Mole Enchiladas and the Enchiladas Christmas Style (both red and green sauces.) And this time, I took pictures.

Fast, delicious, tons of options

There were at least a dozen dishes that were marked with “vegan option” on the menu, and they used an actual meal substitute (did not ask what it was made of as I don’t have allergies) in the dish to sub instead of just vegetables. We got two of the mole dishes and both were fantastic. The main downside that was that they didn’t have any of the dairy free cheesecake listed on their menu.

Pros: Tasty and filling options , Clear labeling , Cute restaurant environment

Cons: Not fully vegan , Out of some things

A must when in Santa Fa

Their mole rosado was absolutely amazing. I strongly encourage you to order it yourself - you will truly enjoy it.

Their service has always been great and the patio is a great spot to hangout. Has always seemed more affordable than some other local spots as well.

It has been over 4 months since I have last been, but I still have cravings for their mole rosado.

Amazing vegan Mexican food

We three had planned to go to an all-vegan restaurant for lunch, but it was closed for their summer vacation, so searching on Happy Cow I found Fiesta Oaxaca. It is around the corner from the Georgia O'Keefe Museum downtown. The outside patio is small but accommodates quite a few people. We all ordered enchiladas (See pictures) and a piece of vegan lime cheesecake and absolutely loved the food!! The menu is clearly labeled as to vegan options. The staff is delightful, especially Ivanna, our server. She told us up front they were short-staffed and the wait time could be awhile, but it wasn't long at all. I loved this restaurant and in hindsight I'm glad the first choice was closed or we'd never have gone here. Hooray for serendipity and luck! Oh, and P.S., the lemonade is really good. Not too sweet or tart, and there is a non-alcoholic beer option available.

Pros: Good parking, lot or meter, Sweet patio, Wonderfully friendly staff

Cons: Can't think of any

Gourmet Mexican and some of the best vegan food in Santa Fe

We've eaten here a few times and it's always been delicious. Probably half the menu is marked clearly with VEGAN OPTION. From the moles to the burritto, this is not what you expect when you hear Mexican food ... they really know how to cook and bring out subtle flavors and prepare elevated vegan food.

Pros: vegan options clearly labeled, lots of vegan options, delicious

Cons: no parking lot (it's downtown SF!), not 100% vegan

Vegan but expensive

Lots of vegan options like cheese, mushrooms, sweet potato etc. but truly a little on the pricier side for small portions. Also not as flavorful as I would have hoped.

Pros: Vegan options , Next to the plaza (accessible)

Cons: Small portions

Fair to middling

Came here for dinner and was really looking forward to it. We came a year ago as our rv travels brought us to Santa Fe to wait out the weather and fires. We dined here a few times in the same week because it was soo tasty and had many vegan friendly options (google review May 2022 https://g.co/kgs/KSw2pT).

This visit, the dishes weren't quite as tasty. The guanabana margarita was overly sweet and only hints if of tequila; I wasn't able to finish it. The are still a number of vegan options, but some of the items are no longer on the menu (e.g. Puntas De Bistec A La Mexicana). The red and green sauce vegan enchiladas were good, but not like before. The chile de arbol salsa and black bean side are what brought the flavor to the dish.

Pros: Many vegan options, Black beans, Chile de arbol salsa

Cons: Main dishes lacked flavor, Overly-sweet weak margarita

So vegan friendly!

I love that this place has sooo many vegan options! I ordered the pibil tacos (Vegan option) and they were delicious! I didn't realize they mixed tofu with mushrooms for the substitute, and for me not liking mushrooms, I thoroughly enjoyed these! I was starving after hiking so I forgot to take a photo but I did snap one of our vegan desserts! Chocolate ice cream and pumpkin cheesecake. I would definitely come back here!

Pros: Tons of vegan options, Great atmosphere and service, Delicious food

Yummy mole

It’s not often that I find a vegan friendly mole option. This restaurant has 4 different moles and all have a vegan option! I had enchiladas. The vegan filling was mushroom and tofu. Lots of other items are clearly marked on the menu as having vegan options.

Pros: Lots of vegan options , Easy to order
