Top tips

Ask about: uncertain ingredients

  • Check for weekday deals, and consider two tacos as a filling meal; a reviewer reported they cost about $8 each and were generously sized.
  • Good to know: Ask about gluten and preparation if you have celiac disease; one reviewer found the breaded squash taco wasn't gluten-free and said this wasn't disclosed on the menu.
All 5 tipsShow fewer
  • Try the vegan squash or gochujang “chickun” taco; reviewers mention both, though the menu selection may change.
  • Good to know: Expect a loud dining room during busy periods; multiple guests found the acoustics made conversation difficult.
  • Ask which tacos are vegan when ordering, since reviewers report the number and type of choices changing over time.
