If you’re looking for vegan Mexican food on the LES, try Mictalan Mexcio. It’s in the former Fat Radish space on Orchard Street and has a relatively spacious dining room in the back of the restaurant. Stick with the vegan options, like the quesadilla with vegan chorizo, cheese, and chile pasilla mayonnaise - the tortilla is large and crispy and something you won’t want to stop eating. Some other dishes, like the underseasoned ceviche and dry chicken fajitas, should be skipped.
