Very cool little vegan place in Tucson. Focuses on fresh, natural and organic ingredients. I tried a little of everything for breakfast, it was all good especially the freshly ground oatmeal. Outdoor seating or carryout only. Not as well refined as most places but that's part of the character of small business. It certainly adds to the uniqueness of this place and doesn't take away from the love that's in every meal prepared here. Pictured are the freshly ground oatmeal, sourdough pancake, biscuit and chorizo.

Great pancakes! Made from Teff which is an Egyptian ancient grain, very good for you but it tastes amazing. Goes good with their coffee. Great atmosphere for your doggies too.

This place is excellent. Just walk in, say "what's fresh" and take whatever they have. Delicious vegetables. I had the rice stir fry. $6

I'm really disappointed I hadn't found this place on my previous trips to Tucson and I'm so glad I finally did see it. It wasn't nearly as far from my hotels as some of the other places, it's open for breakfast (vegan breakfast is a very exciting thing for me) even on weekdays, they have multiple options for delivery, and they have some unique menu items. I left my teff pancakes in the fridge for a few days and didn't feel like warming them up when I ate them and they were great even like that. The pm options look good too, especially the vegetable stir fry.
The patio area is a nice little oasis and sets the tone before you even walk in. The employee at the counter was so nice and genuine. I can't wait to go back!.

It was a quiet Sunday evening and we wondered if they were still open. We were too late for some menu items so we both had the tepary bean based burgers. They were tasty, filling, and came with really good condiments. The smashed potatoes were included as a side. We enjoyed our meal and the outdoor seating under a full moon and pleasant autumn temperatures. We'll be back.

I had the stir fry and my friend had the firfir; both were amazing! Mack was a pleasure!

A wonderful kindness. The food was fantastic and the staff were very caring. Both my husband and myself are furloughed government employees and our dinner was free. Thank you so much for the lovely soup and fried rice. Our daughter lived the bread, too!

So delicious, unique and friendly. We were visiting from out of state. If I lived here, I would eat here regularly. We had the burger and smashed potato, house made hummus with crisp bread and cookies for dessert. Everything was amazing vegan food made in house!

Zinman's is the quintessential local joint. It's rough around the edges so for those who prefer a waiter or waitress at their beckon call, and polished construction and design, this isn't your place. Zinman's is real food for real people. They put their heart and soul into their food and it absolutely comes through in the quality of the ingredients and the combination of flavors. This is the type of restaurant we should be supporting- eclectic, passionate, fresh, and quirky. Don't listen to the complainers, those people should stick to corporate entities.

Super quirky, tiny gem on a side street in Tucson. The owner was the only one working, and he cooked our meals on the spot. It was a bit of a wait, but that is to be expected when two meals are being made from scratch. The menu that day was VERY limited (like, 3 items to choose from) but they were unique and quite good. The owner clearly cares a lot about veganism and humanitarian rights, so check it out if you share those values!

AMAZING! We’re travelers so sometimes it can be hard to find good vegan food. We had the comfort bowl and the burger. Very good quality never had fried peanuts before but they were very good! Don’t let the low traffic fool you, it’s very good.

I really love this place. It is one of my favorite food-serving businesses that I have ever been to and it makes me not want to go anywhere else. I absolutely love how down to earth and genuine the place is. If you want to support a great business, go there...I wish I were in a situation to go there more regularly. Make sure you tell them how spicy you want things though!!!! Anyways, cannot recommend enough.

Small place, only outdoor seating. Fun and quirky decor. I had an amazing, gluten-free Ethiopian dish called firfir. The guy who runs the place is very kind and friendly and an excellent cook!

Excellent vegan food completely hand made even down to the hand ground grain for fresh baked bread!

Food was delicious and they are one of the last uniquely Tucson restaurants with the charm and charisma of the Southwest. Definitely recommend the pancakes with pecans and the biscuits with gravy. A place with home cooked good food.

I tried the fir fir, the smashed potatoes, and the vegetable stir fry. I had a coconut with my food. Overall the food is inexpensive and delicious. The atmosphere was casual and inviting. If I lived in Tuscon I would be a regular here.

I just tried Zinman's for the first time last night - great place! Small local place with great home-cooked vegan food. The Zauber burger was the best veggie burger I have ever had! - tepary burger with chopped pistachios, in their own house made spelt bun, topped with a sauteed spiced tofu, home-made tomato sauce, coarse ground mustard, greens and tomato. Absolutely delicious!
Came with smashed potatoes, and I also got the tahini sauce and the black-eyed pea hummus. All highly recommended! I also tried a squash-walnut cookie and a maple-pecan cookie, both delicious. Burgers and potatoes are made to order so it can take a few minutes but well worth it. Only two small tables in side, best to sit on the patio if weather is good. Liam was super-friendly and helpful!

If you are looking for a made from scratch 100 % vegan place this is it. We had local mushrooms on our pistachio nut burger. They mill their grains right next door. A good place for dietary restrictions. Wholesome.

Wonderful and friendly service at a community centered deli. The tepary bean burgers and hummus are delicious. If you want to have a quiet and cozy place to sit outside and enjoy some vegan yummies, take a break at zinman's!
