“Edit (response to owner): what a complete nothingburger response to my 5 star review. You’re so used to receiving bad reviews that your automated response apologizes for the below-5-star experience. Clearer now that ownership of this location is not present or caring at all.

Initial Review:

I came to this location out of necessity. My wife had just delivered a baby and this was the closet cafe rio. It has the lowest rating. Once I placed my order - which as other reviews also state can only be done via kiosk - I began to read reviews and saw tales of 50+ minute wait times at 8:00 or 9:00 pm.

My wife loves Cafe Rio. I am generally not a fan and I feel the quality has significantly dropped over the past couple years.

This particular night I was in a rush and was considering asking for my money back after placing my order….BUT, my order was out in less than 10 minutes. I timed it. 7 minutes. Best experience I’ve ever had and the food quality was good.

This location is messy. The back line and lobby has garbage and chips laying everywhere. In my book it’s not that big a deal and tells a bigger story of how the management and ownership treats their employees. The employees did a great job.“

“Great atmosphere, great service and phenomenal food! Ask for Andrea if you go and she is the best server! 10 out of 5 stars!“

“We have traveled quite a bit in Mexico over the years. Our favorite places to eat are small, home-owned, “hole in the wall” type eateries. Always good food, warm pleasant people and just a comfortable place to be. We found that at El Gallo Giro. No corporate rubber chicken sandwiches here. Drop by for a fine meal and a touch of Mexico. I don’t think you will be disappointed…“

“We took a group to the Holy taco for lunch today. We were served quickly, and the food was delicious! We had the gringo and the taco. Both were as authentic as I have ever had. wonderful, friendly family atmosphere. Will definitely be coming here again! Would recommend highly to anyone who wants authentic Mexican cuisine.“

“amazing food, great service.“

“I went to eat her with my friends and we were all blown away by the service, delicious food, and great portions! It’s a great vibe with great drinks. I highly recommend this restaurant!“

“Off Road Mexican Food is amazing! 🌮🔥 I got three birria tacos with consommé, and they absolutely hit the spot! Everything was fresh, delicious, and ready fast. If you’re in American Fork, give this place a try, you’ll be glad you did! I’ll definitely be back!“

“Great food and even greater horchata“

“I'm a Texan, and this is great Mexican food!“

“Loved it!! 😁😁😁 The burrito was fully packed and while I haven't always been a fan of avocado, it added to the flavor. the chips were fresh and I absolutely plan on having it again 😊“

“My family and I go to holy taco very often. The food is amazing especially the Al pastor tacos and grilled onions! The staff is always friendly especially the manager. He goes out of his way to come check on us to make sure everything was great and last time he gave us complimentary horchata’s. Such a great experience every time! Thank you, Holy Taco!! We will be back!“

“Loved the carne asada burrosaurus. Hot sauce added great flavor and very generous portion too, nice to get good value for your money.“

“Amazing food and amazing service, everyone is so polite and friendly. They always make us feel at home and the food is amazing. They serve the best Mexican food I have had in Utah if somebody says otherwise they have no idea what they are talking about. Make sure to try the quesadillas de masa and meat lovers tortas !!“

“This place is so delicious! I highly recommend! Plus they have one of my favorite drinks ! Piña just next to the fountain at no extra cost! I will be returning! The employees are so sweet and kind !“

“Oh my word, thank you! Delicious!! Came to your pop up at my favourite New Mills cafe, Clockwork, tonight and you were rushed off your feet, but it was well worth the wait! You said tonight that you just wanted to make people happy with your food ...two very happy people here in this house!“

“El menudo los fines de semana y las kesabirrias tacos de tripa en si todo es delicioso“

“I have got lunch from here a couple of times. The location is convenient and the employees are always @CostaVidaFreshMex #localfluence, #gifted, #CostaVida, #BajaFresh, #FastCasual, #FreshIngredients.“

“Lo mejor k e comido regresaré al molcajete mexican food en orem“

“I have been coming here for years. I love their chimichanga platter and their birria tacos!“

“First time visiting and I will definitely be coming back! My husband came by Don Joaquin's a few days ago and couldn't stop raving about it so I decided to join him there for lunch today.... let me tell you that I am so glad that I did! The restaurant is spacious, clean and they have some freezers with Popsicles, paletas and ice cream bars and fried doraditos by the ordering station. Menu is simple but sometimes that all you need right? I got the gringa combo, which has 3 tacos (al pastor, chicken and asada) with a drink and my husband got an asada burrito with a side of rice. I also got a slice of strawberry tres leches cake which was stellar! Every single bite was lovely; everything was flavored so well and was fresh! Definitely recommend if you are in the area - you won't be disappointed!“

“Loved it great service and food!!“

“I really like their smothered burrito with pork sauce.“

“Their mixed tacos are amazing! Highly recommended!“

“always affordable and filled w any type of meat you can think of!“

“First off. I fly here from WA to eat the fries burrito. My bf came with me and there was hair and METAL in his food. They are throwing their meat out right now but I’m feeling additional compensation is required. It was not a thin piece of metal (it was roughly paper clip looking)“

“I have been coming here for years. I love their chimichanga platter and their birria tacos!“

“The food is really great! Worth driving for.“

“Muy buena la comida muchos platillos para todo gustos“

“Delicious. Authentic flavor. Good price. The garnishing like the cooked peppers made it extra special.“

“Fui al de Springville ase unos días y siempre todo está bien y la cajera en la mañana bien buena y siempre con una sonrisa pero ese día fuimos en la tarde después de las 6pm y fue un error. Los que están en la tarde se ven que no les gusta el trabajo y un muchacho creo que se llama Iván en su cellular ignorando mi pregunta. Mi esposo también no le gusta ir en la tarde por que no tratan bien a la gente. Necesitan una clase en cómo comportase con la gente. Nunca más regresamos en la tarde.“

“It was catered for my daughters birthday and the food was so good got queso birras, rice, beans and got some agua fresca on the house 10/10 would recommend 🙏🏽“

“This place slaps. The owner was cool, him and his crew know how to cook some real deal tacos and quesadillas. This isn’t your standard issue street taco either, these are full flavor blast tacos. It’s truly worth a visit. We will be back in the near future to explore more of the menu.“

“Best Mexican food in Utah. Been going here for 20 years. My faves are the fajitas, chimichangas and carne asada. Love their salsa as well. Support local!“

“This is easily my favorite Mexican restaurant in Utah. I just don’t understand how anyone can rate it less than 5 stars… maybe they had covid and couldn’t taste anything? The flavor profiles are absolute art. It’s pricy but I’ve never gotten an impression that they compromise on quality. Tortillas are meaty, meat portions are plentiful, everything is cooked to perfection.

Honestly, if you don’t love this restaurant there is something broken with your pallet.“

“I like this spot. I'd go back again.“

“I stopped here on my way to Sun River Nursery. They made street tacos for me, and they were absolutely delicious! I loved each of them - full of flavor, tender meat, excellent tortillas!“

“😍😍😍😍…………………………………………………….“

“Been our favorite choice for good Mexican food for several years now. Street tacos are the best--flavorful and fresh. We love the VIP Street Tacos & order them nearly every time! Attentive friendly servers, tasty food & great value for your money.“

“buena comida recomendada si señores“

“Their tacos are great, the tortillas are homemade and they have tacos for only 1.50$ on tuesdays, and the service it's great too! I threw my tacos by accident and they gave me another ones for free
Pd. You must try the aguas frescas“

“The one place to go if you're looking for authentic items from México or other Latin American places.Don't let the small door entrance fool you. The place might be small but they really have a bit of everything.Just give them a shot.“

“Loved the options on the menu, I ended up getting two Asada and two Pastor tacos. They forgot the second tortilla on the Asada tacos, and they fell apart. The pastor tacos were kind of fatty, but overall it was good. Loved the sauces and toppings! Great atmosphere for a food truck joint, with covered seating. Quick service, and very helpful!“

“Got a burrito with steak and chicken tonight. It was a win! Always good to try something new, although the salad is still my favorite!“

“During coronavirus quarantine we try to Order from this place every week. Yesterday, was pretty crazy. The governor just asked people to stay home. People were lined up to pick up food. Your amazing employees were doing their best. Everyone was stressed and some customers took it out on the very people trying to serve them. Thank you for staying open so your employees have work and we have food. Thank your employees for dealing so patiently with the customers that don’t handle this stress so well.“

“We waited to try it when it opened and I’m sad we waited so long. The staff were friendly, fast, and helpful. The food was fresh and delicious. The best chili relleno I’ve ever had. I also love the salsa and warm refried beans served with chips. We will be back! Best Mexican food in Utah County!“

“I grew up on taco amigo! love their fries and fry sauce.“

“one of our favorite places to eat. Never had a bad meal or bad attitude from an employees. 😍“

“First time trying this place since the name change, Both as a Dasher & as a customer. I have to say the staff are awesome, very friendly and helpful (unlike some other places I have been recently) We ordered a Shredded Chicken Chimichanga, a California Burrito, a Habanero Burrito, and a side of rice. The food was served very promptly, hot and well presented, and we all agreed that it was absolutely delicious. Both of the Burritos and the Chimichanga were packed full of meat and flavor, Not like a lot of these places that pack them full of beans, and a few chewy bits of tasteless meat. They even put a bag of Cinnamon chips in with our order, which was a very nice touch. We will definitely be using this place on a regular basis, and will happily collect orders from their restaurant to deliver via DoorDash. Keep up the good work, it doesn’t go unnoticed.“

“My absolute favorite Mexican restaurant for over 10 years!“
