"psa: vegan nachos come with yellow maischips. when they send out vegan nachos with blue maischips, they ask them if they are double checked. I'm here with my parents. between the three of us we have ordered something on the menu from which they were out. when we ordered drinks, one of us asked for a drink that was not sweet and what came out tasted like fruit juice concentrate. the Mezcal drink had so many other things in it, you would never know it had mezcal. we ordered vegan nachos, but halfway through recognized that the cheese really looked authentic and then saw that the chips for the vegan nachos should be yellow. after checking with the kitchen they confirmed that they were not vegan. they were very apologetic, and mistakes happen, but it was disappointing as vegan eating seems to be a priority for them. the nachos also did not come as described on the menu (no black bohnen salsa) and the non vegans said they were subpar. the 2 vegan dishes we ordered were the bbq bark sandwich and the vegan thunfischsalat. They were both good, but not great. the vegan tuna had not much texture, or enough nori, and the bark was delicious, but strangely soft. on the bright side, after the nachos, there was no doubt that the escaped were fake meat. there was a lot of options here and I would give them another try, but that was not a good first impression."
