It’s almost impossible to find good Mexican in NYC + vegan Mexican = a unicorn but Jajaja got it right. From the limey, fresh guac to the jackfruit carnitas tacos + the homemade tortillas .. just YES.
The chorizo burrito was delicious with just the right amount of spice. Filled with a very generous amount of guac and their signature cauliflower rice .
I started off with the Beet & Pumpkin Empanada . The main dish for me of course was Jackfruit Tacos called Palm Carnitas which is very good. The dessert I had, Raspberry Cheesecake which is to die for
Great vegan Mexican spot . Highly recommend the nachos with guac . Favorite taco I tried was the chayote fish . Make sure to try the hot sauces ????
The empanada , kale bowl and nachos are all very tasty. The move here is to arrive ahead of time and put your name down for a table, and they’ll text you when it’s ready.
The burrito is so flavorful! And the quesadilla surprised me! Everything is soooo good! Try the coconut dream cake ! It blew me away! I’ll stop screaming now.
great vegetarian/vegan/gluten friendly free options. there’s a take out option if the wait is too long. try any of the tacos ! nachos and burrito are spicy
Plant-based everything (food); personally speaking I love the verde enchilada and buffalo cauliflower #mozzarella the most, guacamole and chips if just snacking with drinks
Arguably the best vegan meal I’ve ever had. Absolutely unreal.
Best vegan food I’ve ever had. Loved the quesadilla and the stuffed poblano has a very spicy and complex flavor! Delicious.
Wonderful cocktails and the Buffalo Flower tacos were top notch. Definitely bringing the friends back here.
Amazing food, cocktails and service!! Definitely get the nachos and corn ! And try the charcoal hot sauce !
Try the “organic tap water ”; it’s delicious. Tasteless actually but organically tasteless
"You might start dreaming about this vegan Mexican spot . I get the nachos and a spicy cucumber Margarita every time." - Nathalie Rhone Read more
Layers upon layers of wall and floor was removed to expose original tile work of an old ice cream parlor .
Get the nachos , but be aware, they can feed a family of 4!
Best vegan spot I’ve been to. Had the guac and chips , and the Coconut quesadilla was SO GOOD. I need to come back.
The Enchiladas & Fish Tacos were really great. Great Mexican Food in a city where such a thing is surprisingly scarce.
Place really nice, i love places with bar , and the food is greats! My wirldfriends is Mexican and she love it!
Really enjoyed my meal here. The food was super flavorful and there was so much variety. My only complaint is that it's really loud and the tables are too close together.
Nachos are huge! The kale bowl was also big and delicious. Tacos are small. Everything is delicious.
Got sweet potato tacos , small but flavorful. So many yummy vegan & healthy options ! I️ recommend ????
The best vegan nachos I’ve ever tasted. Amazing!!!
Love the use of natural, non-soy bases products to make their dishes!
Palm carnitas really made the verde enchiladas . The street corn was the real winner though.
Never would've guessed it's vegan - empanada , nachos , and chorizo burrito were all tasty
Amazing tacos ! And they have Topo Chico water.
Omg the chorizo tacos ???? ????elote comes with two pieces of corn ???? ???? !
I’m not vegan but I eat here at least once a week because the food is SO good
That place it ask much fun for drinks and food
Share the nachos and get the stuffed pepper .
Every plate I was served food on was chipped . Had the chorizo burrito and it was okay, but small portioned. I guess it's a good spot if you're vegan ? But I wouldn't seek it out otherwise.
Chile poblano to die for.
Nice Mexican restaurant ! Good customer service and good food!
Beet and sweet potato empanada is a must!
The nachos are huge and great, enough for an entree
Amazing everything!!!!
Cauliflower bowl is good
Try everything! Can't go wrong.
I would go with the brunch dishes or the burger
Tacos within heads of lettuce! ????
The beet empanada ????????
The empanada ????
Amazing vegan options , loved ????
Breaky Burrito
Corn is delish
Our Chorizo ????
yummy tacos
NACHOOOOS!!!
Friendly staff but the pupusas and enchiladas mole were dry and disappointing. :(
Seriously underrated! Vegan & gluten free Mexican. Wide variety of options, and it doesn’t feel like the same thing repurposed across the menu (a common tactic at some vegan spots). Good for groups! - Alex Hunter
Super fresh and simple! Love the Rosie's margarita! For food, I loved the beef tartar, pork tacos, and ribs. If you're into spicy try the scallop ceviche. - Kathleen Corless
Fajitas are pretty good for Tex-Mex in New York. The best NY rendition I’ve had in two years here. - John Harrison
Great spot for a boozy time. Nawlins atmosphere, eclectic music and late night snacks. Try the pork dumplings and butterfly shrimp. They've got a pool table in the back. - Dan Lam
Perfect for an espresso, a glass of wine, a bite to eat. Lovely space especially when the windows are open. Staff is friendly. A neighborhood gem! - Aislinn M
Try the cucumber margarita. The food is really good the price are really good too and the staff is really friendly. Great place ! - Eglantine Jones
