You cannot tell me the smash burg taco doesn’t tastes like a Big Mac. Thankfully they accommodated with no bacon and no pickles. I loved every bite. Piping hot and fresh ingredients made for a solid appetizer to my ufc watch party.

I'm so thankful to places that 1) offer vegan protein options like to tofu, and 2) allow you to customize your order. The food is always super fresh. The best tofu tacos. Delicious food.
