Here’s a brief review of Tiki Loco, a vegan cafe in Dallas, Texas that serves vegan tacos, nachos, coffee, beer, and baked goods. Check out their website and menu here.

We decided to go out for a late lunch / early dinner because we had plans to go to a figure painting class later that night and wanted to try out a new restaurant. I had been wanting to eat at Tiki Loco for awhile now, especially after seeing their posts on Instagram. We stopped in for a quick bite to eat and had such a great experience.

After we ordered our food I enjoyed a local vegan cider while we waited. We visit the cidercade they brew at every once in a while and have a ton of fun playing arcade games and drinking cider. It’s been my go-to drink lately, especially the flavor Crackberry. Tiki Loco had a ton of other drinks to choose from, from juice to coffee, smoothies, and even shaved ice.

We ordered the House Original Ground Beef Nachos, the Citrus Chicken tacos, and the Pineapple Mango Sweet n’ Sour Pork tacos (all plant-based!). Everything was so delicious and so filling.

And then as we were leaving we picked up an oatmeal cookie that we couldn’t resist.

The food was absolutely delicious and we enjoyed the atmosphere and music they were playing. We haven’t tried a new vegan restaurant in awhile, and even though this was a far drive for us the food was amazing and we were so happy we stopped by. If you’re ever in Deep Ellum I highly recommend checking Tiki Loco out!
