They are, if it was the beans that you were concerned about. I was here a week or two ago, and asked them if their beans were made with lard (animal based), and they are not. Said that they had enough vegetarian customers that they made them vegetarian.

This is the best Mexican restaurant in Columbus! The tortilla chips come out fresh and warm and the salsa is superb. We have to be careful not to over indulge on them so we can enjoy the main course, but we always eat way too much of the chips and salsa! My favorite dish is the carne asada with nopales and either refried beans or the mexican potatoes. My wife really enjoys the handmade guacamole, and I must confess that I "sample" some of that, too! The drinks are good, especially during happy hour. The staff is friendly and does eveything they can to make your meal a real pleasure. I went to Mexico two years ago and ate carne asada at a small local restaurant and watched the food hand prepared from scratch and it was excellent… just as it is at La Casita. If you haven't been here, try it… you won't be disappointed!

The nopalitos are also not to be missed, spicy and sweet!

My husband and I tried out this place last night, and I loved it! My husband liked it too, he got cheese enchaladas. I got the fish tacos, and they were excellent, I’m so happy to find some yummy fish tacos. They are delicious w/ the “macho sauce.” I thought the beans and rice were exceptional as well. My only concern is that I am a “vegetarian” when i eat out (if i’m not eating halal or kosher food) and I asked them if the rice, beans, and cheese enchaladas were vegetarian, and they said they were, but there is always that language barrier and i’m not 100% sure if they understand what i meant. . .
