I have tried many different vegan Mexican food and this is one of the authentic delicious ones. Their region of Mexico is Sinaloa. The owner was very nice and friendly. They work hard to provide vegan menu and vegan breakfast buffet to serve Tucson vegan community.
We are visiting so the dishes that we can try in a short time are limited. We went for breakfast one day and vegan breakfast buffet the next day. Both we had excellent culinary experiences.
Their tamales are special and called green corn tamales. They are delicious.
The breakfast buffet includes about 9-10 items and pancakes and tamales are included. Their food is delicious and authentic. Service is excellent’!

The vegan brunch buffet was incredibly delicious, wholesome and filling. As you can see I ate 3 plates of food and loved every bite. The handmade corn tortillas were so fresh, and those pancakes were the best I’ve ever had in my life! I loved the Mesoamerican plates and vibe.
I wish I lived closer. Also I love this mural, you just gotta poke around!

Excellent, attentive service from start to finish. The staff really pays attention to detail and makes sure you’re taken care of without being overbearing.
The food presentation is spot on. Everything comes out looking fresh and carefully plated. You can tell they take pride in what they serve.
As for the taste, everything I tried was packed with flavor. Authentic, balanced, and clearly made with care. You can tell they use quality ingredients and traditional methods.
And the Café de Olla was incredible. Smooth, rich, and perfectly spiced. Honestly, one of the best I’ve had anywhere.
Del Cielo Tamales is the kind of spot you walk out of already planning your next visit.

Great place for vegan and gluten free food in Tucson. The service is friendly and we received generous portions on both the vegan breakfast bowl and the chicken enchiladas.
Will definitely be back.

WOW what a treasure and yummy place. A staff told us a bit about how they love to support the local community because the community has embraced and supported them. Great vibes. A ton of food for vegan buffet. Hot and fresh. The pancakes and chocolate coffee and chorizo ( vegan) dish were faves. But all of it was absolutely delicious. Homemade tortillas out of this world. Will be back soon.

Their food is excellent and healthy as they don’t use vegetable oils nor artificial flavors. Always pleasant and welcoming. I like their vegan options as well. Overall a great place.

Del Cielo has been on my ‘list’ for a couple of years now and my husband and I took the drive over to give a try for lunch. Really cute inside, very clean and most important welcoming! We were immediately welcomed and warmly, asking if we wanted the regular or vegan menu. We are regular types, so that is what we went with. They immediately brought over water (score!) and then a few minutes later took our order. We tried the bean dip/chips, and I got the Chilaquiles (duh, still searching for worlds best) and the hubs got his Huevos Rancheros. ALL of the food was wonderful and delicious. We polished off the chips/dip; which means I had to take 2/3 of the Chilaquiles home for later… not that I am sad about that. What I think I loved the most is the service and how the staff were. Genuinely and warmly welcoming and stayed that way throughout our time. There was this tall young man who had a wicked sense of humor and he was the star given he played along with my husbands non stop joking.

The fried corn tamales were ok. The chorizo is delicious. The potatoes not to good. All else was good. Customer service was good. Atmosphere was good. They had good music playing.

Every single time this place blows me away. Their vegan tamales—amazing. Vegan breakfast buffet (Thurs&Sat 9-1130)—unbelievable. Staff—so welcoming. Do yourself a favor and come here. There’s only two vegan restaurants I go to when visiting Tucson and this is one of them. Absolutely no reason to stray from perfection. Please support them, you won’t be disappointed.

We had the absolute BEST experience at Del Cielo Tamal! They were more than friendly and explained in detail how all of their specialty Vegan Mexican ‘meats’ are made in house daily, along with their tortillas, tamales and THE BEST Vegan Pan de Huevo we have ever had in Tucson or Mexico! All their dishes have NO lard, MSG or canola oils. They only use avocado oil! We highly recommend them to anyone wanting a healthier Mexican food experience and especially if you are Vegan like us! Our server Isaiah was The Best ever serving with pure excellence! We appreciated you all ~
