Fresh, Flavorful, Plant-Based Mexican Cuisine Awaits

After a friend recently texted me a photo of this newly opened plant based Mexican restaurant, I knew I had it visit it immediately. Upon arrived the restaurant, I liked that it had outdoor seating available. Once inside, hubby and I were warmly greeted by one of the restaurant owners and felt relaxed by upbeat and rhythmic music playing in the background. While I looked at the menu, hubby shared with the male restaurant owner that he had a nut allergy and the owner replied only the horchata contains peanuts. Hubby also asked about the sauces for their taquitos and the owner replied that the taquitos come with green sauce, red sauce, or pineapple salsa. After looking at the menu packet available at the restaurant counter, I ordered a vegan chicken quesadilla and a vegan fish taco while hubby ordered a vegan asada burrito. Our food arrive quickly and hubby was surprised by how large and filling the burrito was. Although hubby is vegetarian (and they had traditional cheese available to put in his burrito if he asked,) he said he preferred the BZ vegan asada burrito without any cheese over his regular Chipotle's sofritas burrito. My vegan quesadilla was large and flavorful especially accompanied by salsa, lettuce, guacamole, and vegan creama. The vegan fish taco was perfectly sized and I was surprised that dispute it having house made chipotle sauce, it didn't set my mouth on fire. As we finished our meal at the restaurant we promised to definitely visit again soon since it is conveniently located in the same shopping plaza as Trader Joe's and Vons we either eat a meal at the restaurant first then go grocery shopping or visa versa. My

New taco place in Redlands. They have mostly vegan and plant-based options. The burritos and tacos are very good. The service is fast and a good price.

BZ Taco is a vegetarian Mexican food restaurant operated by a husband/wife team. Their philosophy is to provide healthy food that is also tasty. In fact, the "BZ" stands for Blue Zone: like the Blue Zone that surrounds Loma Linda City that enables living longer. They offer 2 style of tacos: with vegan cheese and traditional cheese (Not being a vegetarian, I liked the benefits of veggie taco and didn't mind the "cheat" with traditional cheese.) We'll be back.
