Simple Burrito Option

Best news for vegans - their beans and rice are all completely free of animal products, including their refried beans. This was music to my ears as most taquerias tend to incorporate meat or lard in their beans. This did help me out in deciding what would be a filling and satisfying meal for myself.

I went with their Super Veggie Burrito ($10), which included rice, refried beans, lettuce, pico, and guac wrapped in white tortilla. You also get a small (and I mean small) basket of chips, and I wish they'd offer a chips bar like other taquerias.

My burrito was honestly pretty simple: filling but not exciting. It was nice that everything was vegan friendly but there wasn't any other filling that they could offer like mushrooms or zucchinis to replace the meat.

For card users, they charge a $15 minimum unless you want to pay a surcharge for swiping. I found that a bit steep considering how we want to encourage contactless payment and that it's so common for digital payments nowadays.

Pros: Refried beans and rice are vegan
