Curious to spot a unicorn? Go to pokez where you can enjoy an authentic burrito shop at knows how to do it vegan.
Nothing personal against chipotle, but there is nothing sterile about the food here.
As a burrito lover (snob?) I’ve ordered multiple of their vegan selections.
They have several to choose from including vegan breakfast, burritos, potato and chorizo, and more.
Last time I had the California burrito which didn’t suit me.
They use the beyond burger in the burrito which to me tasted like having a hamburger in a burrito.
So this time I ordered the veggie.
It was really good; it came with rice, beans, guac, lettuce, and even vegan cheese! The burrito is giant and delicious, very umami.
The one thing it was lacking was consistency.
The entire burrito was quite soft and I wish they had a plant-based meat (besides Beyond Meat) to add some substance. Pokez serves the burrito with a cabbage salad, which was nothing too exciting.
However, I really enjoyed the puréed tomato style salsa with some heat, which I poured over every bite. For dining in, they do rely on single use cutlery and plates.
I wish everything wasn’t so disposable. The prices here are reasonable—you can get a vegan burrito from $9-13. There are not many places that I would give an authentic burrito rating of 10/10 as a vegan, but Pokez knows how to serve up that giant tortilla-wrapped deliciousness.


The food looked appetizing but the taste was not up to par.
We ordered a potato burrito recommended by the cashier and it was not good.
The overall service/friendliness of the staff was good.
The atmosphere was unique, however there were flies and bugs flying around.
Two Nats flew onto our food while we were eating.
It could be that we ordered the wrong dish but would not recommend the potato burrito.


One of the best burritos I‘ve ever had! We had the veggie and the tofu Cali burrito.
Both were INCREDIBLE! You can tell the ingredients are super clean and fresh.
The tofu was marinated with amazing spices, the guacamole was delicious and the tortilla toasted perfectly.
The burritos are big and the price very fair.
