Welcome to Vegan Vatoz Casa De’ Tacos

3535 University Ave, Riverside, CA 92501, United States

General Info

If you’re cruising through Riverside and craving something bold, flavorful, and completely plant-based, Vegan Vatoz Casa De’ Tacos is the kind of spot that instantly stands out. Tucked along University Ave, this vegan restaurant brings serious comfort food energy with a creative twist that keeps the menu exciting and satisfying.

Walking up, the vibe feels casual and welcoming. There’s a steady flow of locals grabbing takeout or pulling through the drive-through, which already says a lot about how popular this place is. I noticed right away how convenient everything felt-free street parking nearby, easy access, and even a wheelchair accessible entrance that makes it inclusive for everyone.

Now, let’s talk about the food because that’s where this place really shines. The Huge Classic Cinnamon Roll is impossible to ignore. It’s soft, warm, and generously portioned-perfect for starting your day or sneaking in a sweet treat later. On the savory side, the Breakfast Burrito hits all the right notes. Packed and hearty, it feels like proper comfort food without compromising the vegan concept.

If you’re stopping by a bit later, the Sausage Eggs Hash Browns combo delivers a satisfying, filling plate that feels familiar yet refreshed. Everything is layered with flavor, and the textures are spot on. Then there’s the Super Nachos-honestly, a must-try. They come piled high, making them perfect for sharing, though you might not want to.

Another thing I appreciated was how flexible the service is. Whether you’re grabbing a quick bite through the drive-through or sitting down to enjoy your meal, everything runs smoothly. They accept credit cards, which is always a plus, and the availability of late-night food makes it a reliable option when most places have already closed.

From a reviewer’s perspective, this location feels like more than just a typical diner-it’s a go-to spot where the menu is consistently satisfying and the experience feels effortless. Between the creative vegan dishes, accessible services, and convenient location, it’s easy to see why the reviews around town keep pointing people here.

What customers say?

“ Their spot is in downtown Riverside inside a paid parking lot M-F but free on weekends. They’re located near the Mission Inn. Their portions are filling and the street tacos are well put together with lime & salsa on the side. I tried their tacos with asada which had a good firm texture - meaning that they weren’t falling apart on my hands after I put lime and salsa on them. I also tried that taco salad which was on a small bed of romaine and spinach but the beans and soy meats were plenty and filling. They top it with some sour cream and guac on the side. Most people eat in their cars or take it to go because it’s a food truck but they have a couple of park style benches for people to sit there. Great Mexican vegan food to enjoy anytime. Eat more plants. ”

“ 10/10 experience. The service was good; actually better than anticipated. I ordered the burrito, and it was MASSIVE! It took me all day to finish. I started eating it that morning and finished it on the second part of my trip back to NJ. ”

“ If you’re looking for top-tier vegan food in the IE, Veganvato in Riverside, is it. This all-vegan food truck is hands down one of the best in the area for vegan tacos and burritos. I had the soyrizo taco and the BBQ jackfruit taco, and both were incredibly flavorful and satisfying. I also loved that they use two tortillas, so the tacos don’t fall apart; such a small detail that makes a big difference. My partner ordered the al pastor burrito, and he absolutely loved it. But the real star of the show was the chile de árbol salsa, easily the best we’ve had. Highly recommend Veganvato if you’re in the Riverside/IE area and craving amazing vegan food! ”

“ Came here for a late lunch and the food was absolutely wonderful! I had the creamy chicken burrito and it was sizeable with amazing flavor. My husband got the OG asada burrito and enjoyed that as well. We'll definitely be back! ”

“ Incredible authentic food, I’ve been vegetarian my whole life and this is some of the best! Will be coming back regularly! Service was great as well, respectful and funny, let us know it would take a second to catch up on orders and then took our order, not that long of a wait for good food and supporting a business. ”

- Marceline -

“ We arrived about 10 minutes before closing and Onyx stayed open late for us ordering a lot of food for 4 very hungry people. He was patient while we figured out what we wanted and quickly went to make massive amount of food. It was a very pleasant experience overall. Everything was delicious! I was especially excited to see organic ingredients in their house baked banana bread and Sunday pancakes (will have to return for them). I only wish I lived closer! ”

- Kimmy Lyon -

“ If I could give this place 10 stars I would. I’m not Vegan but these guys could definitely sway me. The tacos were amazing and full of flavor. Spoke with the guys running it and super friendly and love what they are doing. Love IT ”
