| - I seem to always end up here with my fellow veggies because it's in the annex, has vegan options, is open late and can accommodate large groups. But honestly I'd really rather not go there and definitely try to sway people to go somewhere else when meeting for food.
To start with, the salsa and chips they give you at your table - nice to have a free starter, but there is very little and the salsa has no flavour and is super watery and the chips are pretty gross and flavourless as well.
The service really kind of sucks. Even when there are few other people in the restaurant they're super slow and always seem grumpy and unfriendly. And if there's a large group? Forget it - bring a puppet show or commit to writing a movie script, you are not getting your food for a LONG time. They do have a good grasp on which items are gluten-free and vegan though, so that's a plus.
Most of the items on the menu can be veganized, which is awesome. But all the menu items are pretty much the same AND they charge $1.50 on top of their already high prices to do so. You definitely do NOT get value at this restaurant - their prices are ridiculous for what you get. For two super small enchiladas with only veggies inside and some gross refried beans, I paid $15 BEFORE tip. SERIOUSLY?? WHO are you kidding??? If it was $8 for that meal, that would be MUCH more realistic and appropriate given what you're getting. The fajitas come with very few tortilla wraps that always run out before the fillings are done - and then they charge you if you want more! And when two of my friends ordered fajitas, they got the same amount of fillings (lettuce, cheese, guac, salsa) as when just ONE of my friends ordered it - so you get SUPER ripped off if there are two of you getting the fajitas at a table.
If you're gluten-free as well as vegan, there aren't many options - either the tostados or the veggie enchilada (all the faux meats are gluten) - both of which are super over priced and really not very good.
