"With an ambiance that says "hip" and a menu that's teeming with fresh burritos, tacos, and fajitas, we have risen to the top of informal Tex-Mex eating. The perfectly spiced beans (black or pinto) and rice (Spanish or brown) are vegan (they don't contain any meat or animal byproducts), as are the guacamole, nachos, tortillas, and taco shells. Additionally, we will substitute grilled tofu for meat in any of our dishes. There are always three kinds of grilled vegetables on hand. As always you get free chips and salsa with any meal purchase."
