    Mini Sope Samplers
    Debbie K.

    We really enjoyed the new brick and mortar of Yaqui Zen cuisine. This unique flavors of Yaqui Mexican food taste satisfied my craving for Menudo, Posole, and Mini Sope samplers with Soyrizo, Asada, and Mushrooms Birria toppings. The blue corn and sope crusts are handmade. The soup is very tasty, light, and healthy. The other dishes were samplers of 'seafood'less ceviche samplers and a Mexican lentil soup. This is a vegan restaurant that is serving vegan Mexican food like no other. The vegan menudo is the best one I have ever tasted and tastes like homemade. It is light but flavorful! This vendor has been in operation for 5 years by doing a pop up and acquired quite a few followers. But it was our first time since we don't live here locally. At the end of the meals, don't forget to get yummy vegan cheesecakes from Vegas Vegan Culinary that taste so decadent and rich in many different flavors. Definitely will be back!

    Tonight was my first time attending First Friday, and one of the highlights was Yaqui Zen! As a vegetarian, I normally don't have many options in street fairs (normally have to settle for sides). Yaqui's, however, specializes in vegan options and I had to try it! I ordered the quesabirria with the side of macaroni salad. It was delicious and seasoned to perfection! I haven't eaten meat since almost 20 years ago, so I'm not the best person to ask if it tastes like actual meat, but regardless, the flavor is there! It had a nice kick to it as well. The portion that I received was pretty big for a total of $15. I also saw their Al Pastor option on the menu, and I'll definitely need to come back to try it! Not only was the food delicious, but their service was fast and attentive. I especially loved supporting an LGBT+ owned business! I can't wait to try some more yummy food!

    I was able to try Yaqui Zen while they did a pop up at F Bar inside Fergusons. So great to have them there and for me to try some vegan Mexican! My friends got the tacos abs they were really great. I got the "cup of tacos" which was so so so good. Life 5 rolled taquitos with potatoes inside sitting in a salsa bath. Truly wonderful.

    Yaqui Zen is among the best vegan food in Vegas in my opinion. I love the strong, bold flavors. It seems like every time I see them at an event, they have at least one new item to try. Last time I came to see them at a vegan food festival, hubby and I tried the menudo and mango agua fresca with a chamoy and tajin dipped rim. Both were absolutely delicious and addicting. They are so nice and have excellent customer service. Would definitely recommend!

    Asada Tacos

    I'm so happy I came across their stand at First Friday. The asada tacos were amazing, definitely will be visiting them again.

    I found Yaqui Zen from my friend who is avid Yaqui zen'er lol. I was blown away by the food. I wanted to try everything. Everything I had was full of flavor and authentic. It was like a home cooked meal and gave me the comfort of such. I can't wait to try more when I catch them at their next spot. The service was zennn, making the experience even better and the dishes.

    The BEST Vegan tacos I've ever had and I'm so happy! Since I became vegetarian I haven't found vegan tacos that "scratch where my New Mexican heart itches"....these do!!! The nachos were good too. I found the ramen esquire to be good but a tad sweet for me. However, a touch of hot sauce to counter the sweet made them a yummy JapaneseMexican fusion delight! AND supporting this business is also supporting a female indigenous business!! Hell yeah ladies! You are crushing it and I can't wait for my next taco!

    Amazing Vegan Mexican food. Tacos Al Pastor were yummy AF. Definitely going to their next event to have more of their delicious tacos.

    WOWW!!! I've been vegan for years and I've never had more authentically flavored Mexican food. And the fact that they had a chile relleno INSIDE of a burrito...mind blown! The service was great, Candice helped me navigate their menu because there was so many good options to choose from. Absolutely love and will definitely be coming again!

    The best vegan tamales on the planet! I ordered a tamale at last week's First Fridays. It was so bomb that I ordered two more minutes later.

    Service was not so good... the guy I order my tacos from had a bad attitude but if you about food…read moreand not service.. tacos are on point and I just tried the taco del pastor...

    Hands down one of my favorite and most affordable taco spots!…read more It's located next to a busy plaza so parking can be quite difficult They're open daily 10am-2pm. Definitely recommend going when they first open because otherwise it doesn't matter the time or day of the week, the lines are extremely long! Love how spacious the restaurant and how organized it is! Once inside the restaurant, there are several lines and you just line up according to which meat and item you want. The longest lines are definitely the asada and adobada (pork)! Once you reach the front of the line, you just tell the staff which and how many of the item you want, as well as any customizations to it. After you get your order, you just head to the cashier line and paying is so easy and convenient! Pricing is reasonable. - Tacos, tostadas, taco aztecas - $4.12 - Sopes, quesadillas, vampiras, & mulas - $7.54. - fries with meat - $22.18+ - soft drinks - $3.31 Arrived at 11am on Sunday and it was already super crowded. Stood in the asada line for at least half an hour but the wait was so worth it! Got 3 Asada Tacos and the tortilla was so soft, hot, and fresh. It was stuffed with plenty of tender beef! The beef was packed with flavor and marinated so well! The pico de gallo was so delicious, as well as the salsa and guac. The Horchata was ok and nothing special since it wasn't made from scratch like the phenomenal tacos! Overall, I really enjoyed my experience and my food. Definitely would recommend and return!

    SO GOOD! Favorite spot of the day , hands down. What a great way to end our day trip to Vegas!…read more We started with two appetizers which were more on an amuse bouche. Small in size but packed with flavor. The Himachi? We could've eaten ten of them. Deeeelicious. The main course came out while I stepped away for a few minutes so I missed the fire show, but got to see it when another table got it later. The taste of the beef was absolutely amazing and loved the accrucements that accompanied it as well. We ended our meal with an almost missed Tres Leches. (Silly me didn't ask for the dessert menu, almost had grounds for being left in Las Vegas!). I'm so glad we circled back and got it, cause it was fan freakin tastic Service also was amazing - our server was so patient and kind

I came here for brunch, and the menu was small but tasty. I had green juice, coffee, and sparkling water. I was for sure very thirsty. For food, I shared a potato flauntas which is a must order! The taste was great and super flavorful with the sauce all over it. I ordered a gem salad because I was feeling like I wasn't eating enough vegetables at all during this trip. Service was super nice and overall I did enjoy all the drinks and got super hydrated. Wouldn't mind coming back to check out their dinner options for sure.

    I'm very picky about Mexican food being from Phoenix and eating it at least 1-2 times a week there…read more I've tried a few other recommended Mexican restaurants and Carolinas did not disappoint!!! The salsas, guac, and their chips...out of this world flavor! Loved the tomatillo based salsa...SO good! I ordered the Cheese enchiladas as it's been years since ai had good enchiladas....ordered them with the Tinga chicken and they were amazing!!! The flavors were excellent, the cheese melted just right, and the chicken so flavorful and tender. I also ordered the Horchata hoping a praying it wasn't the watered down stuff you find everywhere....nope! It was creamy, thick but not too thick, cinnamon, rice, and I tasted a hint of a little something else...nutmeg.....surprised and blew my mind. I will most definitely be coming back here to order food again! So amazing!!!

    Located off the 95/11 and Craig road, this cute little spot definitely has a lot of personality!…read more From the second we walked in we felt welcomed and relaxed. They do have chips & salsa for a charge, but the chips are excellent and the salsa is yummy. We ordered birria egg rolls and our guests got Vegan enchiladas and tacos. Holy guacamole, the food is amazing and according to the owner, all made from scratch using family recipes. We will definitely be back to check out some of their other tasty treats!
