This is easily some of the best and unique food I’ve had. I’m very happy I found this place and will definitely be back. The mocktail was fruity and spicy. The entree had so much flavor. The dessert…. omg! The whole staff was also very kind and helpful. Even if you aren’t vegetarian I’m sure you would enjoy this place. If you’re deciding on where to get your dinner today, look no further and come here.

Super vibes at Jajaja, and the food was great! We had the chorizo tacos, enchiladas mole, esquites and horchatas. Though the mole was a little sweeter than we would have liked, we really enjoyed everything – especially the tacos. Also, the decor is perfect. Can’t wait to come back.

We happened to stumble upon this restaurant by chance, and the experience was unexpectedly delightful. The drinks are exceptionally well-crafted—rich, generous, and bold—clearly reflecting the bartender’s skill and attention to detail. The tacos are equally impressive, with fresh ingredients and perfectly balanced seasoning, delivering complex layers of flavor in every bite. What truly stands out, however, is their Brutto sauce—innovative, distinctive, and incredibly creative, adding a unique twist that elevates the dishes even further. Overall, this spot impresses not only with its flavors but also with its thoughtful execution, making it well worth a casual visit—or even a deliberate detour.

Didn’t think vegan food can be this good! We didn’t know that this was a 100% plant-based restaurant. But we gave it a try anyway. And it didn’t disappoint! In fact we were quite satisfied. We ordered the watermelon starter, then kale bowl, burrito bowl, and coconut dessert, all of which were really good! For the price though we expected it to be a bit more. But it’s not a dealbreaker. We enjoyed every single bite of it. The burrito bowl, goodness, they had some vegan steak in it and it was so good I couldn’t tell if it wasn’t made with meat. The texture was so real! We were sitting in the corner and it was nice as we could see the whole place. Weather was nice so some people sat outside. Give it a try. Oh, and the music was a bit loud. But we like quiet places in general. So that’s that.

We booked a team dinner for 10 people somewhat last minute (within 72 hours), and this could not have gone better. The food was excellent, there were no dietary worries because of the vegan menu, and the staff and service was so kind and welcoming. This is one of their smaller locations, so it probably would not have comfortably fit more than 10 for a group, but it was perfect for our needs and I would definitely go back as an individual. Thank you so much to the staff and managers for accommodating us so well!!

Vegan? Yes! Mexican? Yes! Out-of-this-world? Ohhh, yeahhh! I would have had photos to share but all three of us were so excited to eat and didn’t want to stop for photos. There are plenty of other reviews with photos. But this review just shows it is so good you dont even want to waste time. We ordered grand nachos, Huevos burrito, steak tacos, Chimichanga, Mexican Coke and oat latte! Words from my 13 year old kid “These are the best vegan tacos!”
Edit: Went back the next day and snagged a photo

While most of the food was very good, one of the dishes we found a little lackluster (steak bowl?), we also asked the waitress if there was mushrooms in one dish and were assured there was not and when it came it did have a small amount of mushrooms. We may have been unlucky with this one order though because everything else was fantastic and the wait staff were very helpful. Highly recommend the cucumber cocktail if you do go!

I love the place. It was an in-kind app suggestion, and it was next to a show we were going to see. I really enjoyed the food drinks ,the service and the place was small, but really cute and adorable. They have multiple across the city and I look forward to going to them too.

Menu has great variety of pod and drinks. We ordered the guac and taro chips as an app. I ordered the fish tacos and my friend got the burrito bowl. Tacos were so good I regretted getting just two! My friend finished her entire bowl lol Honestly had no idea the restaurant is vegan awe just picked a place to eat while walking around town. So glad we did!! Food was delicious and the ambience was on point!

So good! I am not vegan and loved everything I had. The Pozole Negra was hearty and delicious. If I did not know it was vegan I would have definitely thought it was actual steak because the texture was spot on. The Huevo Burrito was really good as well. We realized at the end of the meal that we did. It even use any of the hot sauces they put on the table because the flavor profiles and sauce that came with the huevos was perfect.
The whole experience was a real treat.
Great music and you could still carry on a conversation with your friends.
Our server, Kalani, was just the sweetest, as well as competent and attentive.
