    They have a great vegetarian menu. Each dish is unique and tastes spectacular! The casuelitas and tacos are my go to appetizers. Their hot/cold drinks are also very healthy and delicious. Highly recommend it. Also they have plenty of parking on site, it’s paid parking but super cheap even before they validate parking.

    Soooo yummy & staff was so nice & helpful. We loved the carnitas tacos, drowning torta, buffalo & bbq cauliflower wings, & beans soup. I was trying to save room for dessert, but it was all too good & I ate too much, lol! Next time - dessert for sure, we'll be back here soon (worth the trip over from San Diego). The prices are so reasonable & just loved the vibe here. Protect this place!! ♥️♥️♥️

    (Translated by Google) All the food is delicious! Even the tortilla chips that they give free before ordering. Only the time I asked for milanesa it was super hard, it was impossible for me to eat it, but the rest was well done, since then I don't really want to go back but my boyfriend loves it and I think I'll ask for something else when he comes back 😊 (Original) Toda la comida está muy rica! Hasta los totopos que dan de cortesía antes de ordenar. Solo que la vez que pedí milanesa estaba súper dura, me fue imposible comerla, pero lo demás si estaba bien hecho, desde ese entonces ya no seme antojo mucho volver pero a mi novio le encanta y pienso que pediré otra cosa cuando vuelva 😊

    The “Coliflower Wings”!!! YUM 😋 Next time I order, I’ll get them BBQ but ask if they will put a little Buffalo sauce in for some kick. I tried both but didn’t like the Buffalo much - mixed w BBQ, well, now we’re talking! & the Passion fruits Tisane was drinkable & edible for a fantastic “dessert” drink. I’ve had other things in the past & have usually been quite impressed. Definitely a place I would come to often were I in the area much. So glad they exist 👍

    This is not only the best Vegan restaurant I have been to while visiting Mexico it is also one of the best restaurants I have eaten at. It is busy and they need a much bigger restaurant.

    Veggie... My dish was ok. Price was high for what I had othered. It's to all of a location. Sits right Infront of door. They took to long of a time for a veggie place. My limonada was good. Not a very convincing. Was recommended to us by I can't say the same.

    I went with a friend with no expectations. He recommended this place because it was vegetarian. The place is small and in a sort of mall, so it wasn't love at first sight. Surprisingly the food is really good. We got a mushroom ceviche to start (delicious) and I had a garbanzo burger. My friend got the pozole that was really good too. Vegetarians in Tijuana. Now you know

    First time here, excellent service and friendly. Food was awesome, I had the charcoal activated burger, it was huge for me, difficult to finish as I also ordered the hummus and focaccia bread. Definitely coming back, to try some of the other things on the menu

    I consider myself a bit of a vegan foodie. I’ve eaten at some of the best vegan restaurants in the world and granted, some of the worst. Inspiración 9 is by far the best vegan restaurant in Tijuana and one of the best I’ve ever been to for a casual meal. Is it worth it to cross the border just to eat here? YES. Should you get the Crunch burger? Absolutely. Do you need to finish your meal with a brownie? Duh. Your stomach, and your wallet, will thank you for coming here. 🥰 10/10 would recommend.

    Excellent vegan food try the sopa de jarrito excellent to warm you up, the vegan marlin tacos will make you lick your fingers and the tabla de cetas like eating carne asada tacos

  • 5/5 Christopher W. 1 year ago on Google • 57 reviews
    ABSOLUTELY AMAZING FOOD!!!! Some of the best vegan food I've ever had. I would consider going back to Tijuana just to go here again. The tacos were my favorite (didn't take a photo of them)!

  • 5/5 Dawn H. 5 months ago on Google • 24 reviews
    Cazuelita was devine and I haven’t stopped thinking about it since I had it. Incredible everything, truly. I’ve never had such wonderfully cooked mushrooms. Service was great too. Will be returning.

  • 5/5 Ernie K. 3 years ago on Google
    Classic Vegan Burger is good. They have lots of Vegan options.

  • 5/5 Roxana F. 5 years ago on Google
    Everything I tried here was well presented and tasty. From the tamarind drink to the pseudo Marlin tacos and the tortilla soup. The mazapán pastry with chocolate filling was amazing too!

  • 5/5 Angel M. 2 years ago on Google
    Food was great, we tried the marlin tacos and mole, and they were both delicious. Prices were pretty good as well, looking forward to going there again.

  • 5/5 Al B. 2 years ago on Google
    One of the best vegan restaurants in Tijuana, I already had everything in the menu and gotta say it's hard to pick only one dish as my favorite. Go vegan.

    You'll never know the amazing opportunity behind vegan cuisine untill you taste the dishes in Inspiracion9. Torta ahogada, huarache, milanesa salads, and more. Hope when you visit the pozole is available, won't regret . Happy cruelty free meal

  • 4/5 Ruben P. 4 years ago on Google
    Very good food. Everything on the menu is a delight. Healthy and delicious. Wait times are usually small, but it is worth it. I recommend the rissotto and the burgers.

  • 4/5 Yerat C. 1 year ago on Google
    Best vegan food I've had in Tijuana. Everything on the menu is delicious. Probably the only Vegan place in Tijuana I would recommend. However I am knocking down a star due to the fact that the restaurant doesn't have enough servers for the dine-in clientele. The poor waitress that is there is in charge of all the tables and it seems in charge of all the ubereats orders. Speaking of the ubereats orders, the motorcycle drivers come into the restaurant screaming about their order and just making themselves a nuisance inside. They need to fix that. Maybe have an extra window or something so you can have your meal in peace. Edit: on my 3rd visit it seems they've got a second gentlemen working the tables so service is faster now.

    I had the cauliflower steak with a cold lentil salad and the drink of the day, hibisucus. Everything was delicious! The staff was accomodating and friendly. The place was well decorated; creative light and bright. Located in a plaza with parking. Definitely coming back.

  • 3/5 Pamela M. 1 year ago on Google
    Love the food, love the place, the service just really is horrible. Every time I go I get really bad service from the waiters. It’s not one in specific, its all of them and all the time. It doesn’t even matter if it’s busy or not. Other than that, great place!

  • 5/5 Kyle J. 1 year ago on Google
    This restaurant has a great vibe to it with amazing decor and fun music. The food is fantastic!! So many options and all of them are spectacular! I couldn't recommend this place high enough! 6/5 ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐!!!

  • 5/5 Angel M. 1 year ago on Google
    This restaurant is the best vegan restaurant in Tijuana, nobody makes more tasteful vegan dishes like Inspiración 9. Personally I've tried on several vegan restaurants but always come back to try a new dish at inspiracion 9 and never disappoints. Tofu, and carnitas tacos are recommended, also the falafel wrap and hamburgers too. If I can summarize it it would be Great service and excellent taste.

  • 5/5 Nero L. 1 year ago on Google

    (Translated by Google) Hmm ... the prices are more expensive than the average of the other vegan / vegetarian restaurants in the City. The place is clean, well located, but the food is somewhat bland, I owe it, for price and taste. It did not finish convincing me. (Original) Mmm ...los precios son más caro que el promedio de los demás restaurantes veganos / vegetarianos de la Ciudad. El lugar es limpio, bien ubicado, pero la comida es algo insípida, me quedo debiendo, por precio y sabor. No me terminó de convencer.

    (Translated by Google) The food is a vegan version of some typical Mexican dishes and some additions. There is no dish I have tried that I did not like, my favorite is the falafel wrap. They have a great variety of kambuchas and the service has always been good. (Original) La comida es una version vegana de algunos platillos típicos mexicanos y algunas adiciones. No hay platillo que haya probado que no me haya gustado, mi favorito es el wrap de falafel. Tienen una gran variedad de kambuchas y el servicio siempre ha sido bueno.

    (Translated by Google) It is a delight, his creations are creative and balanced. I highly recommend their Torta Ahogada but really everything we ordered (quinoa ceviche, Portobello hamburger and Torta ahogada) were delicious.

  • 5/5 Carlos R. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) At the moment everything has been very good on 4 occasions that I have visited, especially the carnitas tacos, the cauliflower wrap to my taste should not be so cooked the cauliflower, if your falafel lacks a little flavor and I would like you to They had more options than the gluten peeo itself I liked it a lot and the brownies for dessert are a must (Original) De momento todo ha estado muy bien en 4 ocasiones que lo he visitado, especialmente los tacos de carnitas, el wrap de coliflor a mi gusto deberia no estar tan cocida la coliflor, si le falta un poco de sabor a su falafel y me gustaria que tuvieran mas opciones que el gluten peeo en sí me ha agradado bastante y los brownies de postre son obligados

👍 Great food. Only reason why I didn't give it 5 stars was because it was a circus trying to place an order. There is absolutely no directiions on where the line starts or how to order. Trying to pay after you eat is a chaos and annoying. Parking is a headache.
