Amazing

I'm not used to going to a Taco place that had all vegan options, let alone, with gluten-free options as well. They were delicious. Out of the three, I enjoyed the Veggie Taco the most. The churro with the chocolate was soft and warm. The chocolate was a great touch.

Pros: Lots of options, Delicious , I'm full

Cons: Cold atmosphere during cold season, Understandly pricey

The best vegan Mexican food around

We have now been back about 5 times. This place is AWESOME! It’s much for authentic Mexican food than most vegan Mexican places are. We highly recommend almost everything on their menu. The flauta plate is my favorite tho.

Pros: Authentic Mexican food, Great flavor, Awesome customer service

Wow! Get the birria platter!

I recently had the pleasure of dining at Tacotarian, and I must say, these were some of the best tacos I've ever had! The birria tacos were exceptional—rich, flavorful, and absolutely mouth-watering. Each bite was a perfect blend of tender “meat” (jackfruit I believe but not positive) and delicious seasoning. To top it off, Tacotarian offers the convenience of delivery via Uber Eats, brought right to my hotel. Highly recommended!

all vegan tacos that are tasty and good variety

The drill is order at the counter and food is brought out in simple dining yet sufficient ambiance.

Friendly staff. Infused water. I went with the taco platter which comes with three tacos and a side salad with beans and rice.

I went with the veggie- mashed potato, mushroom, onion, roasted poblano pepper, corn, garlic, lettuce, cilantro lime dressing, and pico,

carne asada- seitan, guacamole, pico, and queso fresco,
and mushroom asada- portobello, chili powder, onion, and cilantro. All in all, they were tasty and nourishing.

Recommended!

Pros: friendly staff, tasty all vegan tacos, good variety to chooses from

Superb!

So many choices and I wish I could have tried more! I got the taco sampler platter which was very filling and it was amazing! I love that they do a wide variety of flavors and textures without making the options seem repetitive.

Be sure to ask for recs and about spice levels if you’re not sure, staff is very helpful. I enjoyed eating in, restaurant was super clean and decor is on point. 10/10.

Pros: Several varieties of tacos! , Bright clean restaurant, Large portions

Delicious and filling Mexican food

I could barely finish one of the three delicious enchiladas, filled with Gardein chicken and potatoes, topped with red sauce, crema and queso fresca and served with side salad, rice and black beans. The service was friendly and helpful and the restaurant is spacious and clean.

Pros: Lots of menu choices , Clean and spacious seating, Friendly and efficient service

Cons: I wish they sold conchas

Delicious tacos

The tacos are AMAZING highly recommend the fish tacos, Baja taco is good too but not as much wow factor! Their desserts, specially the coconut cake and the arrozo con leche (a cinnamon-y rice pudding with coconut shavings) are delicious! Great place overall

Good Cali Mexican Food

I had the crunch wrap, two tacos, and the churros. Everything was good. I didn't love the carne asada as much as everything else; it just tasted like seitan. The crunch wrap was unique and not a copy of the Taco Bell version; the flavors were very authentic. The churros were gone super fast, and the chocolate sauce was great!

Pros: Yummy, Delicious comfort food

Couldn't Be Happier

Cinco De Mayo and great vegan options, what could be better? Happy to be a "Tacotarian". It was a bit early for a margarita, but I was tempted ($5 for the special day).

Pros: Clean and efficient, Friendly staff, So many choices!

Great experience

Casual, spacious, counter service restaurant with great options and friendly service!
The taco platter offered a choice of taco flavors, and the coconut cake was delicious. If you’re after a non-alcoholic beverage, the house made pineapple soda is a must-try.

Pros: 100% plant based , Excellent service , Delicious food

So Good!

Walk up and order casual vegan Mexican. Burritos are huge with a choice of protein (seitan, seasoned Beyond Beef). Tons of menu choices including tasty margaritas. Definitely recommend if you are in the area!

Giant Taco

Two words: Giant Taco. Get one and thank me later.

Tacotarian has been on my list for a while, though I was expecting to visit the LV locations before SD - but as it happened we were on a road trip and the opportunity presented itself. We placed a pickup order that was extremely speedy. Tried out 4 regular tacos and the Giant Taco with carne asada. I love finding unique options like this - where else can one get a giant vegan taco?! It was outstanding and comes with "French fries, choice of "meat", refried beans, house nacho cheese, lettuce, guac, pico, crema, salsa morita". I enjoyed every single filling we got: fish taco (probably my favorite), mushroom asada, gabacho, chorizo, and carne asada - would get any of those again.

Pros: Variety, Delicious , Giant Taco
