About US
Our Story
At El Nopalito Vegan Taqueria, we are passionate about serving authentic 100% vegan Mexican cuisine to our customers. The vision of El Nopalito was born over 4 years ago when our founder, Chef Sandra, was inspired by her children as they became vegan. Sandra veganized her traditional Mexican dishes, thus planting the seed of El Nopalito.
Finally, we opened our small family business at Yellow Green Farmers Market in February 2023. Alongside her family, Chef Sandra joyously brings the flavors from her hometown of Mexico City to the South Florida community.
Our Philosophy
We believe that food is more than just sustenance. It's an experience that brings people together. We strive to create an atmosphere where diners can enjoy delicious food and great company, creating memories that will last a lifetime.
