Plant-based goodness shines here, with amazing burgers, desserts, and a chill vibe that even non-vegans rave about.

So incredibly delicious. It's 100% vegan and they have gluten-free options. I've had milkshakes and root beer float that was so good. I definitely recommend this place.
A small midtown gem with big flavors, great ambiance, and a crowd often lining up for a delightful experience.

I can not share this place enough. If you have ever gone, you know what I mean. They are friendly, they are fun the food is fabulous. They even accommodate my gluten-free dietary need.... They are a small midtown location with a line out the door...that is so worth the wait. The prices are decent as well. This place hands down the best place to go to anyway of the week.
This hidden gem offers huge, fresh burritos and an entirely vegan taco selection, making it a must-visit for diverse dietary needs.

My favorite Mexican restaurant in California. Started going to the Monterey location years ago, so happy there is another one. Great food and great service.
One thing I think they could do better: make the restaurant more gluten free friendly. The GF menu items are not clearly labeled, only one item on the whole menu says it’s GF, even though nearly half the menu is. Also some training for staff on cross-contamination to help people with severe gluten allergies and celiac be able to enjoy the delicious food here.
So much of Mexican cuisine is naturally gluten free so it attracts many people with gluten allergies and celiac and I would love to see El Cantaro embrace this 😊
Awesome restaurant, I really enjoy coming here!
Great vibe with delicious offerings that keep bringing people back for more, plus refreshing drinks to complement the experience!

First off I would like to start off by saying I’m Celiac, I walked in around thirty minutes after they opened (around 11:30) the employee was super knowledgeable and reassured me as long as I didn’t get the burrito it would be guaranteed gluten free. I enjoy the chicken option because I feel like I already eat a lot of beef in my diet. You can also have the chips. I just get the salad bowl with protein, lettuce, pico and then corn pico. 10/10 recommend if you are celiac/gf/ or trying to eat healthier. Cheaper than subway.
Small downtown space filled with colorful walls and friendly staff. VEGAN AND VEGETARIAN menu options! No lard in the beans and they're delicious! Prices are great, service is great, salsa bar is amazing. I have celiac disease and haven't gotten sick eating here. I highly recommend this place.
Tasty meals with a few standout options and a notable horchata make this spot a solid choice for a satisfying bite.

The food is pretty good. Not many options for low-gluten or gluten-free meals, but it's still very tasty and the staff are kind & professional. The horchata tastes good too! I quite liked the chimichangas and the carne asada fries.
Enjoy a bright and spacious vibe with speedy service and a menu packed with fresh, tasty options, including vegan delights.

First time experience. Very clean and open restaurant. The service was fast and friendly. Very helpful and knowledgeable about the whole menu. The chips and guacamole were great!!! Home made chips. The mole enchiladas were so tasty and fresh. All the food was delicious. They have vegan options as well. They can accommodate gluten-free free option's as well.
Very helful staff for gluten free options. They can make any salad gluten free by only giving corn tortillas or getting rid of the tortillas all together
With a vibrant mix of indoor and outdoor seating, this place boasts a lovely ambiance, fun music, and a diverse menu for everyone to enjoy.

I love this restaurant! The staff is friendly and helpful, and the ambience is lovely w/dim but also bright lights, indoor & outdoor seating, and fun music! This place is kind of pricey, and the food is not quite as delicious as a lot of smaller Mexican restaurants, but it’s still delicious, and there is a lot of variety, like food items for people like me with dietary issues (gluten & lactose intolerance); I highly recommend the fish tacos and the carne asada tacos—so juicy, fresh, & huge! :)🌮🌮 I had my birthday here a few weeks ago—good times!
I told the staff about my gluten free status. They checked in the menu items I selected and suggested another item instead... The carnitas. The place was busy. Service was friendly and quick. The food was fantastic. It was fresh, full of flavor and plentiful. Highly recommended.
Colorful Aztec-themed vibes create a unique dining experience, and the rich history behind this family-run spot adds a special touch.

Stopped here on long road trip based off search for Mexican food and the 4+ star rating. We were happily surprised to find something better than a cafe open earlier than lunchtime. Loved it and it's now on our favorites list for the future. The three of us had posole, fish tacos, and chicken fajitas. They were all quite tasty, filling, and afordable considering the portion sizes. They also had no issues handling my gluten allergies, which is always appreciated. The atmosphere is Aztec themed, hand painted, and colorful. I thought it was very pretty and engaging. Reading the history of this family run business on their menu was pretty cool too and kept me from asking the inevitable question....why 524? Simple enough, because the origional shop front was at that adreess for years. So, thanks for an awesome meal and rest stop guys!
I eat here once a month, minimum. I'm on a budget and Agave is reasonably priced. I am celiac with multiple food allergies and I've never gotten sick here (I stick with the carnita street tacos). The owners go above and beyond with their service... and the food is AMAZING!!!
A nice spot with excellent service, offering solid dishes and a welcoming vibe, perfect for grabbing a bite in the area!

The place is nice, the service is excellent. The fish tacos were great but the chips and salsa and a few other items left a little to be desired. Overall though I would eat there again. And I’m always happy to find gluten free options. Definitely a solid spot if you’re looking for food in the area!
