Thank you for taking the time to contact Baja Fresh. chipotle doesn’t even have a salsa bar!Īnyways vegas, if you are ever in a pinch, you can definitely find good, cheap food at baja fresh! here is the email i received from the corporate office regarding vegan options: sure, chipotle makes a mean vegan burrito…but baja fresh has better rice, better bottled hot sauce (all chipotle has is tabasco), and an insane salsa bar. but since chipotle gets so much love from the vegan community, i thought we should throw some baja’s way as well. I know a lot of you are probably thinking, “a post about baja fresh, what the hell?”. again, we covered these babies in a mountain of salsa and were good to go. i’m so stoked it’s vegan because most rice like this is made with chicken stock. baja fresh’s rice is the best…it’s all orange and mexican-seasoned. We also got a couple orders of rice and black beans (no cheese), which were pretty big for just over 2 bucks. Side order of rice and beans, no cotija cheese flour tortillas are not vegan…so sorry, no burritos, folks! with that info, it’s pretty easy to get a meal whether it be in the form of a burrito bowl, some bean tacos, or a couple of sides (which is what we ordered). rice and beans are vegan if you get them without cheese (i would specify no cheese on everything), the side salad is vegan if you get it without cheese, chips and salsa are vegan, and corn tortillas are vegan. When i wrote to the company asking about vegan options, they sent me a detailed reply that i will include at the end of the post, but until then this is the easy to remember stuff. Here’s a quick rundown of what’s vegan at baja fresh… honestly, anywhere with a bottomless salsa bar is alright in my book. i was pleasantly surprised by how decent it was, by how much food we got for $8, and by their epic all you can eat salsa bar. we haven’t been to baja fresh in years, so we decided to give their vegan options a whirl. Recently we were checking out a movie at the arclight, and had to find somewhere to grab a super quick lunch before the show. I don’t usually jump at the chance to eat out at chain fast food restaurants, but it’s always nice to know when they have vegan options. UPDATE 11/19: the churros at baja fresh are VEGAN as well! □ look for the **** at the very bottom of the post for more info. UPDATE 11/22: after some sleuthing, it would appear as though churros at baja fresh are NOT vegan. i am gonna let y’all do your own research on this one! UPDATE 11/22: people are pretty divided on this churro issue. November 19th, 2010 quarrygirl baja fresh, LA restaurants
