Was nice to sit down and enjoy some lunch. The food was okay. A little bit on the bland side but was still good. Was vegan friendly.

There vegan food is amazing! My favorite place to eat when I'm in San Diego.

We went here on a whim and were so happy we did. The food was fantastic. The service was top notch the woman serving us (possibly the owner) was super friendly and helpful. Everything came out hot and fresh. I wish I would have taken pics of the food but I forgot. I did get a picture of the margarita flight that was delicious. My daughter got a strawberry smoothie and it was also delicious. All of the drinks tasted like they had fresh fruit in them and the delivery was beautiful. Price was reasonable. I would definitely go back if I was in the area again. Read less

We bumped into this restaurant and decided to give it a go. Very friendly staff and nice atmosphere. Food was very good too: great combo food/price. I loved the veggie and vegan options

No better place for two vegans and a vegetarian who wanted Mexican food! We had a reservation, but really did not need one on a Saturday night. We were seated promptly and the chips and salsa were put in front of us. The chips were homemade I believe and the salsa was spicy. We ordered a larger bowl of guacamole to go with that as well. The atmosphere is nice, colorful and decorated the only thing missing is a piñata. The service was wonderful from the owner I believe. She talked to us for a while about some of the ingredients in the food. The menu has about 1/2 devoted to vegan and vegetarian items. Many proteins are supplied in vegan form for the dishes. Many different forms of beef can be obtained in vegan versions. That is a really nice thing when you’re eating Mexican food. It is much appreciated. A variety of the Mexican dishes are made with vegetables, including eggplant, mushrooms, and many other things. Vegan cheese is available as well. The three of us had different entrées. One, who was not that hungry had Spanish rice, black beans, and pico de gallo. Said it was all wonderful. Second person had a quesadilla with soy chorizo and vegan cheese. Also delicious. Third entrée was an enchilada trio, vegetarian with one cheese, enchilada, one tofu, enchilada, and one bean enchilada. One of them had a wonderful authentic molé sauce with cocoa, roasted peppers And not sure what else, but it was terrific. A cold Modelo Negro on top rounded out the dinner. There are many desserts, including both vegan and non-vegan forms of rice pudding. Would definitely come again prices are very reasonable. Read less

Seriously, one of the best California burritos ever! And those margaritas? All drink, no ice! Jossie was so great.

Fastest service I’ve ever had. Drinks came in minutes and food within 5 minutes. Margaritas and Cali burrito were delicious!
