A vegan haven amidst the Playa chaos! - Edit
Fantastic food and a great venue with lovely staff. All your Mexican street food favourites, but vegan. Fresh tortillas made on site by a team of women. Can’t recommend enough.

The best vegan Mexican PDC - Edit
I have made it my mission to eat at every vegan spot in PDC over the last 5 weeks, and can say Plantivoros is easily in the top 3 of the city.
Read moreThe menu is entirely authentic vegan Mexican, which is rare around here since most places sacrifice quality of their dishes by adding a plethora of different cuisines to their menu in hopes of grabbing your business. Plantivoros on the other hand keeps it to what they’re good at, and I appreciate that!
I’ve ate here a few times and everything is great, but naturally some are better than others. The nachos with Pibil rocks, their enchiladas are bomb, the tacos are great, the tlacoyo or quesadilla is fire. The only critique I’d really have is that the bread for my Cuban torta was a bit dry, but they do give you a side sauce for a reason. Otherwise it was great.
The staff is super friendly, and prices are right. It’s a plus that it’s a walk away from 5th Ave, so far touristy. If you’re vegan, give it a try for sure.

You can’t go wrong here. Authentic vegan Mexican. They didn’t use beyond meat to supplement the protein options. Very creative. Amazing all around.

Lovely dessert - Edit
We had most of the tacos on the menu, the flautas, and the lemon tart for dessert. All of the tacos and the flautas tasted fine. The tart was lovely. I'd go back for the dessert.

Amazing find, off the beaten path - Edit
This place was truly authentic. The food was outstanding. A varied menu. They use reusable straws and cloth napkins. Only one server, who did a great job and was very sweet. Homemade tortillas. A little rustic.

Amazing Authentic Mexican Food with incredible knowledgeable service! - Edit
The server was phenomenal and walked us through the menu, giving us amazing recommendations such as adding the taco fillings on top of the nachos, both green and red sauce for the enchiladas and helping narrow down our dessert options!

AMAZING - Edit
Has to be the best restaurant I’ve been to. I got the cubano sandwich and it was so great 😄 The waitress was super sweet and cute as well. I ended up going twice in the week I was at Mexico just to get that sandwich again. It’s going to be a place I’ll be missing at home 🥺 Everything seemed super clean as well. Lots of care goes into the restaurant from service, food, style, and cleanliness.

Local flavors Veganized - Edit
We ordered vegan tacos, which come in many options, including their famous Kentucky style, Al pastor, and barbacoa, to name a few. The food is fresh and seasoned well, but their service is even better. Our server asked us if we preferred to speak in English or Spanish, and we wanted to practice our Spanish so we we told her and she was very gracious with us. We had a wonderful experience and ordered tamales to go so we would have something to eat for dinner that night too.

New Location! - Edit
We where today at the old location and found a sign that they moved. The new location is marked right at Google maps. I already gave HappyCow a message about that. Great food and nice staff. One Star less though for the new location - not as quiet and green as the old one. Definitely worth a visit though and the breaded oyster mushroom meat option was our favorite.

Delicious meal! - Edit
*Heads up: Restaurant is upstairs! Not a completely clear sign for it so look for the stairs with a blue gate that has a little “go vegan” sign.*
Read moreCame here for dinner around 6:30p on a Monday as a group of 4. Theres about 5-6 small tables, and I definitely wouldn’t recommend groups of more than 4 coming together as there wouldn’t necessarily be space to sit together. We were able to get a table right away.
Our group got tacos (Baja, choripapa, and al pastor) and enchiladas—all of which were delicious! You could tell the tortillas were homemade and fresh. The enchiladas came with a small side salad, as well as the tiniest side of beans—would maybe recommend getting an additional side of beans and rice if you’re hungry!
For dessert they had either a “McFlurry” (vanilla ice cream with Oreos and caramel) or something else, but I can’t even remember the something else because we got McFlurry’s and they were DELICIOUS.
Overall, wonderful experience! The atmosphere is chill and homie, and they used all reusable items (reusable napkins, straws, etc) which I appreciated. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in PDC.
