    We are so glad we found this place! I was looking up Vegan food for my wife a few weeks ago and decided to give them a try. We have been back times since. They have really good modern Mexican food and great vegan options. We try something new every time and are never disappointed. Aside from the food, the staff are very inviting and make you feel like part of the family.

    Craved some good vegan Mexican food on a work trip this weekend. El Papagayo is outstanding. We ordered margaritas and food to go which were delicious! We ate chips and salsas while we waited. They gave us ice for our drinks so they wouldn't get watery on the way back to the hotel. The service was fast and very friendly and helpful. Highly recommend and will be back for sure.Vegetarian options: Vegan menu, lots of options!Dietary restrictions: A whole vegan menu!

    My girlfriends and I really enjoyed this restaurant. The owner was so polite, attentive, and prompt to take care of all of our requests. He was very outgoing and made our visit very comfortable and welcoming. The food was delicious. They also have a Vegan menu, which is awesome since it's so hard to find a restaurant to go to with our Vegan friends. We will definitely be back!
