Doomie's NextMex

Great vegan food with excellent gluten-free options! The carnitas tasted just like the real thing. Highly recommend!

Next Mex is surprisingly good! Feel obligated to say that I don’t love regular Doomie’s. Back when they were in the night club in Chinatown in the 00’s they nailed fried chicken like no one else, and the Big Mac at the current location was all that in like 2015, but otherwise I don’t eat there often. The Mexican food though is done really well. Not at El Cocinero or Vegatinos level but dare I say as good or better than Cena? Not overly dependent on vegan meat, ie the burrito is the full package with tasty beans and rice, with a good tortilla that’s grilled well. Tip: it’s free to add cheeze! The chile relleno is delicious. Not overly fried tasting and filled with plenty of vegan cheese but not too much. The salsas are also good and I appreciate the range of vegan meats. The carnitas are my favorite and they are also the only gluten free option. Occasionally it does come a bit too salty and that’s relative to the saltiness you would expect from Doomie’s food.
