Homemade salsas are fantastic and they have their own vegan cheese.

They have a little juice bar, a small restaurant with vegan and vegetarian options, a grocery section with health/ nutritional items, and a fridge behind the checkout that has really great soy, setan, and amaranth meat alternatives. The best part about trigo verde is it's very affordable!! I found some of their nutritional items (ex. Nutritional yeast) to be pricer then other naturalistas in the area. Their fresh food, however, is very affordable. I come just for their fridge of fresh food items. The hummus and the steak looking fake meat are delicious! Also try the amaranth burger! I hear that on Monday they have comida corrida all vegan (meatless Monday special cheap menu) but I haven't confirmed this yet. Everyone who works here is friendly and knowledgeable. They seem like they actually want to help you and they really care about health, which i haven't seen in the naturalistas I've visited. Also, there is a manager who is sometimes here who speaks perfect English... always a plus. He told me that this is a family business, another plus! The only reason I took off a star was I had a salad here once and it was very bland and boring. It had pasta, garbanzo beans, and somewhat stale lettuce. Next time I'll just have a tostada or an amaranth burger Thanks trigo verde family for bringing these options to Oaxaca and making veganism more accessible! ------- Este lugar es realmente fantástico y una visita obligada. Como vegano viviendo en Oaxaca, ¡estoy muy agradecido por este negocio! Tienen una pequeña barra de jugos, un pequeño restaurante con opciones veganas y vegetarianas, una sección de comestibles con artículos de salud / nutricionales y una nevera detrás de la caja que tiene realmente excelentes alternativas de carne de soya, setan y amaranto. La mejor parte sobre el trigo verde es que es muy asequible. Encontré algunos de sus elementos nutricionales (por ejemplo, levadura nutricional) para ser más prietos que otros naturalistas en el área. Su comida fresca, sin embargo, es muy asequible. Vengo solo por su nevera de alimentos frescos. El hummus y el bistec buscando carne falsa son deliciosos! ¡Prueba también la hamburguesa de amaranto! Escuché que el lunes tienen comida corrida todo vegana (menú barato de lunes sin carne) pero aún no lo he confirmado. Todos los que trabajan aquí son amables y conocedores. Parece que realmente quieren ayudarlo y realmente se preocupan por la salud, algo que no he visto en los naturalistas que he visitado. Además, hay un gerente que algunas veces habla inglés perfecto ... siempre es una ventaja. Él me dijo que esto es una empresa familiar, ¡otra ventaja! Agradece a la familia de trigo verde por traer estas opciones a Oaxaca y hacer que el veganismo sea más accesible

I recommend making a reservation "Alta" which is the balcony seating -- in the evening, once it's cooled down, it's a beautiful setting. The food is fresh with amazing combination for flavors.

The tasado taco is an amazing blend of flavors. They have amazing mole -- with two mole trios -- or dedicated mole dishes. The mole negro is incredible! And the Coloradito with pork belly was my fav.

My husband had pork belly. The sauce was a spicy red sauce, which was very flavorful. We enjoyed the fact that they had craft beers also.

A great item to order to try a bunch of finger foods from this region was the Botana Zandunga, which came with garnachas (mini tortillas topped with beef, salsa, onions, cheese, pickled cabbage), molotes de platano (plantain fritters stuffed with cheese/cream), empanadas (corn tortillas stuffed with beef), tamal de elote (sweet corn tamal), tamalito de cambray (tamal filled with beef stew), bolitas de queso (fried cheese balls), tacos dorados de cochito (fried rolled tacos stuffed with pork), and pico de gallo (chopped tomatoes/onions/cilantro topped with dried shrimp). Each of these items was unique in flavor and texture, and it was fun to try so many different little bites! Next, the Ensalada Zandunga was a simple salad of lettuce, tomate, cheese, basil, and a berry vinaigrette. We also had two local main dishes--the Cochito Horeneado were pork ribs baked in an ancho chile adobo, served with a spiced potato puree and corn tortillas; and the Estofado del Istmo was a shredded beef stew cooked with fruits, served with potato puree, pan bollo (toasted bread), and queso mantequilla (butter cheese).
