Gracias Madre

"Vegan Gone Wild! Fiesta wild.. I can only describe the vegan Mexican food of Gracias Madre as a truly unexpected experience of culinary genius. They transformed a wildly famous cuisine of bold, rich, hearty, and heavy flavors into a selection of healthy, earthy dishes that still taste Mexican. There are tons of places I'd eat at on a return trip to San Francisco but I would fly back for this food alone. In Texas we not only know good Mexican food, we live on it—you could cut us open and we'd likely bleed Mexican food—as do Californians. But San Francisco's Gracias Madre knows Mexican food best. Regardless of if you're a vegan, go for it. Just eat it. You won't be sorry and you'll feel full without have to unbutton your pants afterwards. Spot on!"
