First off, shoutout to Sabi/Savi; he provides excellent customer service and great recommendations! Baby! Doomie's has some of thee best, not just vegan TexMex/Mexican food, but vegan food, in general. Their plant-based proteins are spot on! I ordered the nachos(chips) and 1 chicken/pollo flauta. The nachos were a large portion, lots of toppings, lots of flavor! I added carnitas which took it to the next level! And the flauta, oh my goodness, more deliciousness. My friend was laughing at me because of my reactions while eating, so I guess it was visible and audible how much I enjoyed my food. My friend is not vegan and really enjoyed her tacos and what she had of my nachos. Doomie's NextMex is definitely a must for whenever I visit Los Angeles! I may have to have it once more before I roll out. Amazing! read more

Hello World! This seems like very good place to come when you're high because of the heavy, savory nature of the food and the colorful vibes of the decorations. All of their meats are soy based except for the carnitas that is mushroom (delicious btw) I got the 3 taco plate w rice and beans! My taco choices were carnitas and Korean bulgogi. $21 total w/ tip after I added guacamole. You order on a mobile screen here and they'll text you when it's done. When I opened the taco box, I was bit taken aback because in the there was nothing added except the "meat" and guacamole. From their pictures, it seems like there was extras like onions, sauce, garnish, etc When I asked Devon about this, he was understanding and willingly remade the taco for me. Shoutout Devon! Overall the tacos were good flavor wise, but a little "meat" heavy. Perhaps it felt that way bc I'm used to typical meat that lies to ur body about being full If I were to come again, I'd probably go for something lighter like the chicken tenders and fries. Maybe the burrito is good. I commend the establishment for their easy ordering, air conditioning, and willing to satisfy the customers request. Also their tacos are so pretty. read more

Nice Mexican food in an all vegan restaurant. Happy to support it. It was sort of quiet when we went in. I do think the prices are high and service is a little impersonal. I'd like to see them host events, offer a check in or review deal of some kind and offer a rewards program of some kind. I think the ambiance is much nicer than the diner next door. read more

If you are looking for healthy vegan food, this isn't it. If you are looking for authentic Mexican cuisine, this also isn't it. But if you are looking for scrumptious craveworthy Mexican style delicacies, this is it! I hadn't been here in a while, but found myself down the street craving it and I love how they are open late! Even better, they have a giant parking lot with free parking, which often feels like a rarity in Hollywood! When I arrived, it was nearly empty, but I wasn't surprised as it was rain storming in LA! I ordered the crunch wrap which I did not regret! Despite the name, it actually was more soft and warm and gooey. There was a fantastic queso sauce that was spread generously in the tortilla and oozed out when I cut into it. The beans were well seasoned and hearty! There was even a lovely crema which added a bit more spice to it and even more of a luscious texture. The food was prepared quickly and the restaurant was very clean and tidy! The service was friendly and really enhanced my experience, ensuring I was getting the proper dish! read more

Their carnitas are probably my favorite carnitas from anywhere. The flautas are good as long as they dont have a ton of sauce that makes them soggy. I usually just go for the carnitas tacos though yum. If you want them spicy make sure to take something to spicen then up. read more

Love this spot! Rice & beans and tacos are always out of this world. My gf is vegan and we like to do a sampler of the menu when we try someplace out and every item here was a delicious burst of flavor! read more

A trip to Hollywood does wonders for the hungry. We've been here at NextMex plenty of times. We love how this little vegan restaurant offers a menu of wonderful Mexican food. Yes, you read that...vegan. Step inside and you entered an over the border Tijuana style decor. Navigate the kiosk for making selections that make your taco or burrito or nachos an over the top experience. My half and half fries/Chips with Chicken and easy additions of cheese and tomato and cilantro was a definite Nachos winner. The lovely missus took advantage of an order of the Vegan Chicks chicken wings with Korean sauce and it comes with a slice of bread with pickles and some fries. Perla of next door Doomie's Home Cookin helped us get the order to the kitchen where a good natured hard working chef did his magic. He brought our orders in containers with napkins and utensils. It was a yummy feast and my snack at NextMex was really a bountiful abundance of great mix of unique and tasteful gathering of vegan cornucopia of ingredients. A Hollywood winner of the day. read more

Tonight, I went to go pick up my order, and got yelled at by the angry middle aged man (wearing all black) in the kitchen. He didn't hear me say the first name of the order. I read off my order which matched the receipt attached to the bag. He asked me for a name, and I said the last name of the order this time instead of the first name. He yelled "No,no,no,no, that's not what you said!" I told him that's exactly what I said, and he got super mad. He then explained that he doesn't type out the last name on the receipt. Somehow it was my fault that this restaurant doesn't put last names on pick order receipts. He would be a lot less angry if he was more professionally detailed. The bar for customer service is so low, it's in Hell. I understand why most of the restaurants in the strip mall NextMex is located in are closed down, if the customer service was as bad in the closed restaurants, as what I experienced tonight at NextMex. I apologized to him, just so he could cool down. If he was as passionate about his food as he was his attitude, maybe the food wouldn't be bland. The portions are big. The food looks fantastic, but once you bit into it, there's a reason they give you a lot of hot sauce. It's very deceptive. There are so many other good restaurants on Vine Street that serve similar food. They call it NextMex, because you should say Next, and order from an actually good restaurant. NextMex, come for the blandest burritos on Vine Street, and stay for the verbal abuse. read more

The food is good!! The Flautas are my favorite and the quesadilla a close second. The Flautas are big, crispy and delicious and the quesadilla is ooey, gooey with cheese, perfect ratio of protein and cheese! read more

Massive portions for a great price. Sheesh! Every time I visit LA, I always try to visit at least 1 new spot I haven't visited before. Doomie's popped up while searching for restaurants in the Hollywood area. A fully vegan taqueria that specializes in the hefty & hearty? Let's go! I brought my friend here who is a a huge foodie but hasn't tried much vegan food. You order either online or through the touch screen POS systems and then take a seat and wait for your order. The interior is a little bare-boned with just a few tables and booths, but the ceiling is lined with pinatas, making it colorful. We both landed on the same item - the fully loaded wet-style chimichanga with chicken. This thing is an absolute unit of a burrito! Fork & knife are definitely needed. I was only able to eat 1/3 and my friend took down 2/3. Perfect for two meals! I liked the texture of the chicken as it shredded nicely. Everything is so saucy and savory, this is definitely a comfort meal that will fill you up so come hungry. The only thing I didn't like is that the food is served in styrofoam containers. It's not sustainable, but also is so flimsy that when you cut into your food with the plastic fork & knife (which are also the cheaper/flimsier kind), you risk cutting a big hole in the bottom and making a huge mess. I wish you could choose 'dine-in' as an option and get it served on real plates with cutlery. However, in the end if you want tons of food that is filling and comforting for a good price, Doomie's is the place to go. Their sister restaurant is right next door and specializes in more fatty comfort vegan food such as fried chicken & burgers. Yum! That will be on my list for next time. read more

I was really looking forward to this but the Kitchen closes at 9pm. They need to update their business hours.

I'm a chef , and I'm vegan . I expect good quality , great tasting dishes when i decide to eat out . Well this week i bet a 100$ on this place , and honestly people must not know how to cook , or don't have quality taste bu I was excited. Hungry. Hopeful. But what I got? Straight-up disappointment in takeout form. Let's start with the fried chicken--bland, weird texture, no crunch, no flavor. Just a sad, flavorless sponge. I was hyped for it too total letdown. Then came the quesadilla. Looking at the menu, it looked and sounded like the star of the show. I was like, "Okay, this one might slap." But nope. That was a bold-faced LIE. It tasted exactly like soggy cardboard. And I mean exactly. Like that weird, wet cardboard smell? That's the flavor. I gagged and spit it out immediately. Mac and cheese? Don't even get me started. It was hyped up as some updated "to die for" recipe. Well, I nearly died from the taste--liquid smoke overload and cheap vegan cheese that clings to your tongue like regret. Now, the tacos and the shrimp? Okay fine, they were decent. The "shrimp" had a good firm bite and tasted fresh. That's literally the only reason this place isn't getting zero stars (if that were possible). As for the vegan chicken--who approved this? I've had incredible vegan chicken before, the kind with crevices, seasoning, a crispy edge, and sauce for days. This one? A bland square. No flavor, no texture, no soul. I also tried the cookie and ice cream. Meh. Super mid. Wouldn't get it again. I'm a foodie, and when I see a vegan spot offering a variety, I get excited--I want to try a little of everything and see what's worth coming back for. But after this? Never again. I'll check back in maybe if they pull off a miracle. If you care even a little bit about flavor, quality, or not wasting your money--run. RUN. And those five-star reviews? Yeah... they were either paid for or written by people who lost their taste buds in 2020. read more

Best vegan shrimp tacos ever! So good I forgot to take a picture. The red salsa so spicy! Been here a few times and that's my favorite dish. Cool peeps. Open late. read more

Seeking to culture your tastebuds vegan style? Located in a small restaurant lot with a few other restaurants you'll find this hidden gem. Upon entering you will notice that the ceiling is decorated and friendly vibes. You will walk in a realize that everything is figureoutable. It was quite simple you see as you order your food via kiosk and your order is brought out to you once it is ready. If you need help with kiosk they are glad to help. I ordered the carne asada burritto wet style. They have tables inside and outside plus free parking. Once my order was ready I could not wait to make my food disappear. I simply love that they take Mexican cuisine and reintroduce it as vegan. Get your pallets ready and culture your tastebuds. It's a great mix of savor Mexican and vegan cuisine with many meatless protein options. Next time, the mole relleno, tacos, and nachos are top of my list of things to try. It does not stop there as they serve flautas, ceviche, taquitos, and the new fiesta bowl recently added to their menu. It was a nice experience and I look forward to returning for more. The Asada burrito was such an unforgettable dish and wickedly delicious--that taste that just brings you home. It was also quite large. They have mastered the art of nourishment with plantbased vibes. Doomies you've made a fan of me!! Anyone who loves Mexican food, vegan food, or just a foodie at heart go check them out. "Everything you need your courage, strength, compassion, and love is already inside you." read more

Doomie's NextMex - Vegan Carne Asada wet style burrito take out order - Vegan Near Me - Los Angeles, California

The food was great, I am not a vegan and found the carnitas taco really good once I added some lime. The chicken flauta was beautiful and so crispy! The "chicken" was a good light texture. The ambiance was minimal, it's a cute place but there was no music and my friend and I talking seemed to echo in the place. I also would have been waaaay happier if there was some hot sauce and salsa around. There was one guy handing out orders and you had to wait for him to help you if you want anything "extra" at all like napkins or salsa or lime so it was a little annoying and I went without because he kept saying one minute so he could help others. Didn't feel accessible and definitely not efficient. I would definitely recommend fir anyone looking to try vegan Mexican food and would also tell them to bring some hot sauce! read more

The food is always good, that is not why I give it 1 star. The problem is that the service is horrible. We used to order doomies and their next mex location almost weekly and now, for the past year our choice to order from here diminished. Something changed because every order turned out have a problem. I always ordered a burrito and everytime now, the item is made incorrectly. They litterlly have check boxes on what you want removed if anything and they seem to ignore it. This mean I have to pick out what is marked to remove and I am sick of it. I suggest that this establishment really reflect on their service and make changed or loyal customers like us will drop off read more

This place knocks it out of the park with their vegan chile rellenos. five out of five stars

Really bad service, I'm so disappointed I drove all the way from Anaheim to pick up my order around 11:40pm and I ring the bell so many times and no one was coming out even though I was able to see a man in the back , two customers left because no one was coming out to help , and then he moved and obviously he was able to see me and pretend he didn't see me and I ring the bell again , and she still didn't look at me or come to help me , I had to scream " I'm coming to pick up and order" I was so mad at that point and he comes and treats me like I'm stupid , and points to a sign where it says ring the bell so I can heard you and know you are here and I told him that's what I Been doing all this time , and so many times and he said okay in a way to shut me , and gave me a rude attitude I'm never coming back to this place I can't leave zero stars, but they desr zero stars. read more

This place was love at first bite for me! Yes it's a bit daunting the thought of vegan tacos but believe me these are HEAVEN on a tortilla! I got the three taco combo: Al pastor, asada and carnitas. It came with rice and beans which were super delicious. The tortillas were fresh made and they didn't skimp on the filling. I also got the fried capirotada which was a HUGE piece (definitely shareable) and came with a side rub if whipped cream. I ate everything and was SO stuffed pretty much for the remainder of the day so even tho there was no meat, it was super filling. Sucks I don't live in LA bc I would be coming here ALLLLL the time! read more

Food is amazing (10 starts) Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays. Only when Carlos(cook) is there. If you order any other day. Food is poor quality, poor quantity and they take forever. I'm not sure if the owner is aware of this but I would really love if he could fix this situation. I've been coming here every week for the past year (Mondays only cause if I come any other day I end up mad because of what I said before). I wish I can go more. I would give 5 starts if food was the same everyday. read more

Doomie's NextMex - Order only Mondays - Vegan Near Me - Los Angeles, California

So many options & variety, love me an all vegan Mexican restaurant!! Yessssss!! Chili Verde is my favorite in taco form. I do think they could go crispier on the texture of their meats, they all are really soft and sort of mushy, but the flavors are incredible. The nachos rock and so do the taquitos! Try them with the Roja salsa. Although I do have to say their rice & beans are not the best IMO. The rice lacks flavor, while their smoky refried beans are really sour. read more

Absolutely delicious vegan versions of popular Mexican and TexMex. Simple spot, nothing fancy. Recommended!

Food: Yup! Delicious! For those who avoid soy, they have very limited soy-free options - but it is possible. Basically stick to carnitas (mushroom) and remove cheese and cream on the dishes. The beef taquitos are mushroom base, so they're soy-free too. The fried artichoke Baja style's batter contains soy, for an option w/ less soy. Loved everything I got & would order it again: The guac & chips, extra salsa verde, 3 taco combo with 2 carnitas and 1 fried artichoke, & beef taquitos. Service: the staff was very helpful in helping me figure out what was soy free and overall were very nice. Food is done in great time, the ordering process is via touch screen and you get a text when the food is ready. Ambience/venue: clean and nicely decorated read more

First time here, Ordered a wet burrito With carnitas. It was almost $20.00 and it was very small. The picture of the burritos on the menu do not match the size of the burritos at all. The burrito was about half the size of the container it came in. Very disappointing. read more

Low quality food at moderate to high prices. The service is non existent as you have to order through a rudimentary touchscreen. The ambiance is late night dive Esque. Food served in non biodegradable plastic containers or paper bags with non biodegradable plastic utensils. And the expectedly overpriced pre packaged guacamole was at least a day old. They get props for being og but that is it. read more

Doomie's NextMex - #3- Three Tacos Combo - Vegan Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I really wanted to like this place because I adore the original Doomies next door--but I've gotten food here at least three times and been sick after twice (in the last month or two). I gave it the benefit of the doubt thinking that perhaps it was just the dish I ordered one time--but I tried other items on other dates and the same result happened. I'm sick to my stomach as I type and feel incredibly nauseous. I don't know if it's because perhaps the food isn't fresh? Perhaps it's being stored too long and past the expiration date? The faux meat felt off, the sour cream old, and it's just bad... Makes me sick to think about it. I'm astonished this place has a single five-star review at all, to be honest. I highly suggest if you want a good and authentic vegan Mexican food experience, go to Cena Vegan. Also in agreement with other reviews that state it's a bit counter-intuitive to be a vegan establishment but use styrofoam since it's super bad for the environment. read more

Food is amazing. People are very kind. I will continue to drive from Ontario a vegan persons dream

The chefs are and have been for about half a year hit or miss. Sometimes, all good, just what we want, proportions all right, yum. Sometimes, way way waaay too much salt. And I am no salt shamer, but the beans I just ate were, oh my, I usually love to eat them with all else but boy oh boy. Still yum, but not the beans, not as good. And the rice was overcooked and hurt my teeth. Just leaving this here to say bravo to one chef, and, keep learning to the other . But thank you! read more

Used to be one of my favorite places, but has changed a lot over time and it's not quite the same -- some of my absolute favorite dishes like their Chile rellenos have disappeared, portion sizes have shrunk, prices have gone up, the restaurant is remodeled and doesn't feel as friendly and festive, and service feels kind of perfunctory and not super friendly. I love that there is usually plenty of free parking in front, which is a real find in this area of Hollywood. read more

Doomie's NextMex is the plant-based Mexican restaurant of my dreams! Casual dining space and you order at the counter using the self-serve iPad. Cashless transactions only. There was one gal working behind the counter who acknowledged us as soon as we placed our order. The Meateater Hubby and I ordered the following: - Nacho Fries http://bit.ly/2DEK1RH - Burrito http://bit.ly/2DB9QSR - Baja Artichoke Taco http://bit.ly/2S1g2J8 - Mole Relleno http://bit.ly/2X3FFga Although we can't remember what "meat" we ordered for the nacho fries and burrito, I remember we were totally blown away by its deliciousness! BTW, Nacho Fries totally rocks my world! I was surprised to see that the Baja Artichoke Taco was batter fried. I definitely loved having that crispiness. The Mole Relleno was good but I gotta admit I wasn't totally in love with it as much as I was with the other dishes. It tasted a little sweeter than what I would have preferred. Not necessarily a bad thing. I was just expecting something more savory. (Take that with a grain of salt. I'm no mole expert at all.) Overall great experience! Our food came out super fast. Portion sizes are huge. Parking was easy. In fact, I was surprised to see that parking was free in the lot on a Thursday evening. I was also surprised that the dining room was as empty as it was. Other than me and the Hubby, there was only one more duo there. That said, I think this spot is really good for late night eats since it stays open until midnight. read more

Next Mex got me feeling like a food lush in all the right ways.... Came in the other day on a sunny spring Sunday afternoon for "brunch." Bae (it's new so yes it's okay to use bae... stop judging me) and I had never been, but had just done Doomie's next door a few nights prior. Upon blowing in we noticed the A/C on perfect... a seat yourself, ordene aqui/order here and pick up here signs all placed perfectly... everything is self served... not even severs... just you a touch order pad and whatever your heart desires... a cool salsa bar, water dispenser and napkin/cutlery area/stations.... they don't accept cash, because there is no cashier... so have a card or android or apple pay. Hyping up the decor... I loved the mini pinatas and lights above the front half of the restaurant... as well as the giant faux next mex taco on the wall. The seating is a little funky being that most tables are alongside a long booth bench and/or connected which means you can make new friends when it's packed as they'll be dinning literally two feet away from you. We ordered our feast on the first touch screen and took our time... the guys behind us didn't seem in a rush, but there are two touch screens for anybody who might encounter a busy situation or line forming. I had to have the wet burrito and the nacho fries were and are a MUST, probably the show stealers, even though everything is great and we added a taco (carnitas) to have a full experience... oddly enough two other orders came out before us with the EXACT combination... though we got "pollo" in our wet burrito... so definitely try a variety and with friends or a date, in my case. Even though we didn't have much service the cooks and staff were very friendly handling our food and ask if we had any questions and pointed us in the direction of all the stations. Will have to come back soon for Doomie's Next Mex as well as Doomies. Fun fact is you can order at one and dine inside the other and use the Doomie's bathrooms since Next Mex doesn't have a public bathroom. I'm not sure how the wine and beer situation works there since I know Doomies' serves and carries, but Next Mex does not.. as far as I know... A question for the next visit, for sure! read more

The wet burritos are seriously some of the best food ever made. Ever. Do it. Do it now. You're welcome.

2 stars because I'm grateful that it's all vegan but the food was unappetizing. Service was good. You order on a computer so there is minimal interaction. read more

The menu is confusing because it's not like most other vegan places that write things like "chikin" or "chicken" in parenthesis to let you know it's plant-based. But this is definitely vegan. They put a big sign in the front. It takes like meat though so it's great for vegans and meat eaters alike. Just wish the lot would use paper instead of styrofoam takeout containers. I like that you can order on a screen and they don't use cash with all its germs. Delicious food. I will continue to order takeout from here. Also convenient because I can pick up Doomie's Home Style cookin next door in case I feel like a burger. In the same strip mall, the best vegan ice cream store is also there. Plenty of parking in the lot. You can order online without using GribHin and Postmates read more
