The service was good but the food was cheeks, first there is no Mexican in sight, not a grain of salt or flavor laid on my food, and it is way too overpriced. Before you make the drive - there is no meat in sight either. I'd call this place an obtuse triangle at best. The coffee drinks are beige khakis. Just go to chipotle. read more

We ordered takeout via Instacart eats and it was FABULOUS! No pictures because we ate it all up. The food was ready very quickly for the driver to pick up! It was all still perfectly warm when we got it. We can't say anything about the ambiance because we got takeout delivered but the food is AMAZING!! We had he Cuban tacos which is two corn tortilla tacos with Turmerico vegan carnitas, cilantro and garlic sauce, with cashew cream, rice, beans, and spinach salad! And the Ropa Vieja plate. This plate has vegan carnitas, poblano peppers, onion and mushrooms sautéed in their garlic cilantro sauce. Beans, rice, salsa, cashew cream, and corn tortillas on the side. The tortillas are out of this world! I think they are made on the premises!! I HIGHLY recommend Turmerico! read more

I feel that my review suffers from the hype. Going in and knowing the accolades, I expected to be blown away. I was left feeling like it was fine, good even, but not best in the country good. I had Cuban tacos (unsure what made them Cuban - they were just jackfruit tacos) with beans, rice, and salad on the side. It was all... fine. (Except the salad, which I didn't care for and can't quite place my finger on.) I suppose I have had a lot of vegan food in my life, so my standards are different, but I have definitely had better vegan tacos (and in Arizona even). Would I go back? Sure, but I wouldn't go out of my way for it. read more

Went to Tumerico for the first time and was surprised I hadnt been before! They have a large menu and lots of options! I'm gluten free and they were great about allergies! My husband and I ordered an horchata latte to share and glad we did - the sizes are GIANT! Food was delicious and it's supposedly the best vegan Mexican restaurant in the country, I would believe it! Looking forward to coming back! read more

SO GOOD! My mom and I are not vegan and we love coming here. We always leave full and feeling so good and not heavy. The food is just so flavorful, their "meat" is delicious. Who knew that jackfruit could be so amazing, I can't praise it enough. Let's also talk about their drinks, you can't go wrong..ever. I highly recommend their turmeric lemonade! It is a little bit on the pricey-er side but you get FRESH, LOCALLY SOURCED food and great proportions. I honestly love that about this place. read more

Service is always great. The place feels small and is often busy and loud. Most importantly, the food is mediocre. I cook veggies all the time and it tastes way better. There spices combinations are off for my palette. I have a hard time finding food that works for me there. It supposed to be healthy but their food combos are not great for digestion. And I don't resonate with the tastes either. I keep going back thinking I'll like it because most people I know do enjoy their food and I'm always disappointed. I leave feeling I've wasted my money and I don't want to finish my food. It's way over priced for what it is. read more

Greeted with big smiles and friendly service. They were very helpful and patient. The tacos I ordered were so tasty, loved the tortillas.

Outstanding! Love the jackfruit Cuban Tacos and the vibe of this restaurant. Staff here are so friendly and always happy to serve.

What a great dining experience. Greeted with a joyful smile and explaining the menu both printed and specials on the wall! The food was fresh flavorful and beautifully presented in a timely fashion! Coconut curry with yellow curry base, potatoes, etc. Flavorful, not HOT..don't let the curry scare you on this! Yummy and plentiful! Cuban tacos..OMG! Repeat in a heartbeat! Not a Mexican taco..a clear Cuban combo and well worth the deep dive. Three tacos, rice and beans! The horchata was a yummy drink to complement the meal. My dining partner had the green goddess smoothie, which was fiber filled and a lot to tackle with a large plate of food, but still flavorful! Step outside your dining box and make the visit! Relaxed atmosphere, salsa bar, Frido Kholo themed walls and a signed tray with Guy Fieri's signature...truly a special place! read more

AMAZING flavors!! Cannot believe this food is all vegan/vegetarian!? Such a cool concept, seems like authentic Mexican food and flavors but vege options! Staff is so kind, friendly and knowledgeable. Inside is super casual, almost like a casual, street taco vibe. Always pretty busy but usually able to find seating without an issue. Have already been multiple times and usually make a trip whenever I visit Tucson! read more

Super disappointed since this was the highest rated restaurant in the US. I got the Cuban tacos and the rice AND beans were hard, not thoroughly cooked. The tacos were good, but nothing crazy special I added prickly pear to my matcha and that was awesome though! I refuse to believe that it wasnt good so I will be trying again. read more

During a recent Tucson sojourn, I suggested dinner at Tumerico. Eyebrows were raised. Teeth were bared. "Vegetarian? Really?" came the reply. Let me tell you, it was a hit. Plates were wiped clean with no traces left of tacos, burritos, rice, beans, or the fantastic vegetable mole. Loved the vegan carrot cake, too! Put this place on your radar. You won't regret it. read more

No meat, No problem! I resisted eating here (I really like meat), but my wife dragged me in a while back to try it. It was good enough that I suggested our second trip in. I was surprised how flavorful the food was even with no meat. I'm impressed! It doesn't replace meat, but it is its own unique delicious food. The Tamales are fantastic. 3rd best tamales I have ever had and those rank amongst meat tamales. All the ingredients are fresh and tasty. A negative was the self serve water that was warm. It was 108 degrees outside and drinking warm room temperature water was a damper on the experience. The horchata was not best I have had. I wouldn't get it again especially because of its price to size ratio. read more

It's taken me months to get up the nerves to write my Tumerico review. Somehow I've been to humbled to feel worthy, but I'm heading back to Tucson in a month and it's the only food I can think of. The layout of Tumerico is modest and informal. Crowds flow happily out the door lining up to get a view of the menu, interact with great patrons and then have the treat of being greeted by amazing staff who are eager to share their fines goods for you to devour. And you will. Every single vegan bite is like dining on a dream. A place of tastebud happiness and joy. Enough from me, please go far out of your way and treat yourself to Tucson's very own gem, Tumerico. read more

Tumerico - Birria Tacos - Vegan Near Me - Tucson, Arizona

Imma be honest. It was a little over-hyped. I mean, the hype is legit. Based on all the internet buzz, this place should be the second coming of food. It isn't. But that being said, it is incredibly good. I'm not vegetarian/vegan, but I have been. I know how hard it can be to find a place that delivers the goods. If I were in that boat, I'd probably fall to my knees and venerate this place's holy name. The "meat" analogs are wonderful. In fact, I could have cared less what I was eating because it was very, very good. I don't think it's even fair to say something like, "for vegetarian pulled pork, it was..." because then it like saying, "while not as good as pulled pork, it was very close!" Would I go here again? I would. Did I enjoy another spot more? I did. read more

I've only been once, however I'd like to give them another shot. I say this as my expectations were very high based on other reviews and what people have told me about the place. I'm an omnivore, so the veggie and vegan heavy menu didn't scare me. It just wasn't "wow worthy" when compared to the other mexican options in town. read more

Food, service, ambiance? Yes, eat there. It's a spacious restaurant. Art on the walls. The flavors are layered. Yum. Yes. Yes. Yes. (Ambiance: To be clear though, it's a casual restaurant, the kind with the hard chairs that make those loud sounds like many restaurants, so while it could be a date spot or a good place for a larger party, it's ambiance is on the casual side, imo.) The food is somethin' else. The verde was not what I expected, and I really liked it. read more

A well-deserved Yelp's Top 100 award!! I love being able to try a top 100, they never disappoint. It is rare to find a vegan/vegetarian Mexican restaurant. For those who aren't vegan, they do use real cheese and eggs! For vegans, they offer great substitutions! I ordered potato tacos which are mashed potato in a crisp corn tortilla shell with cashew cream and guac served with rice and beans. Everything was amazing!!! The rice is not a heavy traditional Mexican rice, it is light and well-flavored. The tacos were fabulous. I also got to try the jackfruit meat, it was really good for not being meat. There is a bit of a line to order as there is only one register and they don't rush anyone. They have three different menus. The staff came out while we were waiting in line to explain each menu. It met my dietary restrictions and the food was great! I highly recommend you try this place, even if you are not a vegetarian, you will be surprised at how well this food tastes!!! read more

I was told about this restaurant by a friend. I ordered the Al Pastor Tacos. This dish was phenomenal. Did I mention the restaurant is vegan. This was the best taco dish I have ever had. There was not on portion of this dish that I didn't like. I can't wait to return and try another dish. Service was excellent. From the moment we walked in, we were greeted with enthusiasm about the restaurant. The ambiance was simple yet comfortable. read more

I was hesitant to try this place since I saw it was vegetarian and vegan, I really love meat, but WOW. This place is good. Not like good for a vegetarian restaurant, but just really good. I got the Ropa Vieja Plate and the Tamales Plate. I've had so many tamales but this was easily one of the top 3 I've ever had. Not sure how the masa could be so good without any lard mixed. The vegan carnitas was super flavorful alone as well. The Ropa Vieja was perfect as well. Look at the photos, doesn't look like beef, but it looks like real shredded carnitas. The flavors meshed really well. The service is also excellent. The person who took my order was really patient and recommended both dishes to me. I'll definitely be back, really curious what this jackfruit carnitas is all about. read more

I wish I could give this place a thousand stars! The food is absolutely phenomenal. Generous portions and so much depth of flavor. All the dishes are creative and delicious! If I could change anything, I would update the seating area. The banquet chairs and tables are not very nice and the lighting is dingy. The atmosphere in the dining area doesn't match the beautiful food. read more

Sooo...if I was strictly vegetarian or vegan I would probably give this place 5 stars. But I'm not, and while it was very good, it didn't give me "This is SO GOOD I can't wait to eat it again!" feelings. But, it was good! It looks like a little hole in the wall place, nothing super impressive, although it was actually quite roomy for seating and very cheery inside. As soon as we went in an employee came up to us and asked us if we had ever been there before and when we told them no, they offered to explain the menu which was great! While not a huge menu, there are an enough items to choose from, plus a huge list of different unique lattes, some fresh squeezed juice, and flavored lemonade. And they do serve a few breakfast items as well. And a variety of cookies, which were ABSOLUTELY 5 star cookies! They were soooo good - don't pass on taking some home! We ordered and found a seat. Our food came out quickly. Nice large portions - I could not finish mine. All the plates (but soup) come with beans, rice, salad, & pico. I got the jackfruit tacos. They were tasty! I had never had jackfruit so I'm not able to compare it to say how good, lol. But, even my kiddo's grandma who is not a very adventurous eater loved them. The staff was super nice and checked on us and then quickly took our plates when we were done. All in all I'm glad I came! read more

This is like no other Mexican restaurant. Simple everything. Walls, tables , floor, chairs. The hospitality greets you at the door. Ready to explain the chalkboard menu. I went for Cuban Tacos based from shredded and seasoned Jackfruit. A big ugly fruit the size of pineapple. I ve seen them in Hawaii. The origin is tied to the wriggley Gum family. Another story. The cheese enchilada resembled a chubby cassadilla with green sauce. Excellent. I would def come back and try something new. They cook here with a unique style. The friendliness was rewarding. We were thanked 3 times for coming from start to finish. That's a first. And, he really meant it. read more

Good food. Tacos are fresh and flavorful. Service is was fast and the staff was friendly.

I'm not vegan or vegetarian, but this place was awesome. The food was prepared perfectly and it was delicious. I came in with a large group and the service was fast and friendly. The salsa was served warm which was new to me, but very good. The chips were fresh fried and crunchy with a bit of chewy on the inside. Definitely eat here vegan, vegetarian, or not. It's great food. read more
