"A Mexican restaurant where chefs use black salt to mimic the taste of eggs in vegan dishes." - Anastasia Sloan
"At first glance, the dishes at Mis Tacones look fairly traditional, with burritos, quesadillas, tortas, and mulitas. But look further to find that the menu is entirely vegan: Asada is replaced with well-seasoned seitan, while cashew crema adds a velvety richness to burritos. Soy chorizo is available in the mulitas and cotija cheese is made out of sunflowers instead of dairy. Even with the vegan swaps, Mis Tacones has earned its spot among the best Mexican restaurants in town." - Paolo Bicchieri
"A vegan taqueria in Portland, Oregon, which closed its doors in solidarity with the Day Without Immigrants protest." - Amy McCarthy
"Killingsworth’s all-vegan taqueria serves Los Angeles-meets-Baja California style tacos, tortas, nachos, and burritos. Filled with extra juicy made-from-scratch seitan, the trio of cilantro lime, al pastor, and asada tacos — served hand-pressed-to-order Three Sisters Nixtamal tortillas — is one of the shop’s tried-and-true items. Other highlights include elote empanadas drizzled with garlic cashew crema, quesadillas with gooey vegan quesillo, asada-stuffed chimichangas, and cinnamon-dusted buñelos with dulce de leche. Customers will also find La Casa De Mama conchas and Xicha Brewing beers at the taqueria. As a way of giving back to the vegan and LGBTQ communities that supported them since their pop-up days, Polo Bañuelos and Carlos Reynoso offer a pay-it-forward program and free meals for trans people of color." - Waz Wu
"Serves good food, including funky nachos and al pastor tacos." - Thom Hilton
