I must preface this by saying I can't eat wheat, so, I imagine if I could try more of the menu, I would give hot beans a higher rate!
Great location - in the market, close to Spadina.
Neat shop and limited seating. It was also a little hard to find.
Since a lot of the items have soy sauce, I had to get a custom order of rice and beans within the taco corn tortillas. I found the tortillas were not warmed enough, so the tacos actually did not hold as they were not pliable enough (they have a portable skillet to warm them up, but I think they need to be on longer). I also came at a busy time, and since the shop is new and tiny - the guys seemed a little stressed out. There were a few things they ran out of as well (and forgot part of my order). This was just when I came - looking from the other reviews. this doesn't seem to be common.
The food is definitely tasty, but not super authentic tasty (the sauces could have more of a pep). However, given this is one of the few vegan taco/burrito places - pretty good.
The tortilla chips are really good (had it as a side), I think they bake them and add some spices, but the salsa could have been more flavourful.
I am assuming they will work out the kinks of prepping and those doughnuts look amazing!
Again, I am sure you will find this place better if you can eat more of the menu (tofu, jackfruit with what seem to be yummy marinades). They have a few burrito and a few taco options - and of course the doughnuts. A few different hot sauces available and green containers. Not super cheap (relative to other taco places in the area), but it's vegan!! ).
