Best Tacos - Edit
One of my favorite restaurants in Austin. We've been eating here since their food truck days. Everything is consistently flavorful and yummy. Flautas and biria are some of our favorites.

Plenty of parking available.
Pros: Authentic Mexican, Dine in vegan restaurant in North Austin, Spicy and flavorful
Cons: Wish for washable cutlery instead of compostable

Wow - I missed mexican food - Edit
The taco plate was PHENOMENAL! I loved rice and refried beans growing up and mexican places always love to add animal fat to their food😒Finally, I was able to have rice and beans again and it was soooo good. All proteins are super great, im just obsessed. One thing I also miss about mexican places is free chips and salsa, but i also don’t mind supporting vegan restaurants SO there’s the one downside.
Read morePros: All vegan, so tasty, Plenty of seating, Quick to get food
Cons: Queso is expensive and it’s not very much

I go for the birria tacos, and I stay for the birria tacos. Really, everything on the menu is delicious and I highly recommend! One of the few vegan brick & mortars in town.

Hit the spot! - Edit
I am so happy to have an all vegan place up north! I got the nachos and my bf ordered the flautas - both were a bit expensive but completely delicious. Queso was an interesting texture (almost like mashed potatoes or applesauce) flavor was great. I would definitely recommend this place.

Burrito was filling and delicious. My husband tried pastor and chick’n protein and he liked both. Do try their sauces, they elevate the flavor of everything.

Loved it so much I can’t stop talking about it! - Edit
So being that I am Mexican, I don’t enjoy going out to eat at Mexican restaurants because I haven’t found one I like. But I tried the birria tacos & the flautas here and I was in love! Those tacos were amazing!! I would make the long drive just for that but the menu has so many options that I am looking forward to trying them all!

Just okay - Edit
I hate to only give three stars but we just did not love it. We ordered the flauta plate and birria tacos. Also an order of chips and queso. Queso was not good. Tasted more like a thick lime sauce and we just couldn’t stomach it. Huge portion of chips. Loud music inside. Young child working the counter. Flautas plate had 3 crispy flautas which were tasty but very skinny. Beans and rice were small portions. Served with wooden forks on paper plates. No knives available. Birria tacos had a great textured “meat” and the consommé for dipping had a fantastic flavor. The taco shells though were not crispy; they were soggy even before we dipped them. $2 for a super tiny container of crema. This place has potential and could be great with some tweaks.

Authentic, Tasty, Vegan - Edit
This place really fills the void that has existed for a sit down Mexican food vegan restaurant in the ATX area. The environment is welcoming, the smells are great, and the food is superb. I had the birria tacos and tried my wife’s ‘beefy’ tacos. Both were spot on. My tortillas were maybe a little greasy, but that kind of comes with the territory. All of the sauces and dips that came with our meals were good, along with the retried beans. We got chips and salsa as well which were nice, particularly the salsa, albeit a touch on the small side for the amount of chips you get.

Pros: Authentic , Delicious , Unique

Street Tacos! - Edit
This is their brick and mortar store and I love that they offer various protein choices with all of their entrees! I got the pastor and chicharron street tacos and it was really good. I’m excited to try other proteins and their loaded fries next time.
