50 Best Mexican Restaurants near North Salt Lake

“Had delicious tacos rice and chips. The pork and steak were my favorite. Very friendly. Check them out.“

“Delicious food, management was visiting each table and being very personable. Wonderful experience. I will be returning.“

“Nice food truck, quality food, with a salsa and condiment bar. I ordered 3 tacos: asada (3.5/5), carnitas (4/5), and a quesobirria (4.5/5).

Good service, they have little buzzers which are nice on cold days, you don’t have to wait outside.“

“Not the greatest quality of Mexican food, but it works for a fast food stop on the road. One of the cleanest fast food restaurants I’ve ever been to, and the employees were very kind and courteous. Quiet environment with gentle music to enjoy your meal. Overall a 9/10 experience.“

“I love the tacos! 🌮 I would recommend them to cater your event! ❤️❤️❤️“

“We ordered off of the drive thru menu. It did take about 18 minutes in the drive through on a Tuesday late morning. There was one vehicle sitting in at the window for about 7 minutes before they took our order.
Unfortunately, we had requested the extremely large burritos to be cut in half because we are going to be on the road for 3 hours. Sadly, they didn't do it. It took about 5 repeats of our order to the lady on the mic to get it right. There was no napkins in the to-go bag and only 1 hot sauce (red).
My husband normal stops at the Betos in West Valley City and they always do such an amazing job. But this time we stopped at the one above due to our trip location requirements. It is possible it was an off day for them.
I only put a 3 star on the atmosphere because we did not go inside to view the actual business so we wouldn't know what type of atmosphere it offers. As far as the food goes my burrito was sadly, dry and really needed more than the one sauce that was included. My husband thankfully let me use it. He said his burrito was good but it could use a little more cheese. All in all, I think we may stick with the West Valley location the next time we go to SLC. Hopefully it was just a fluke situation.“

“Eating here the other night was like going back in time. The burritos and tacos were filled to the top, and instead of needing six little tacos/soft tacos, we could have gotten away with ordering 3 and my burrito! We were super shocked but pleasantly surprised!“

“Recommend everything….best MEXICAN FOOD“

“My favorite Mexican food in Salt Lake City. I don’t get to go very often but when I’m in town I never miss it. Love it.“

“Best Tamales and salsa Verde in town!“

“This restaurant has such a nice atmosphere and awesome staff members!! Food was delicious😋“

“Visited Costa Vida in Centerville. I was so impressed with the service & cleanliness of this location. They were mopping floors wiping tables and no it wasn’t closing time! No trash anywhere. Drink station was spotless! Great job, much appreciated!“

“The food and service are always impeccable. This is my wife and I's favorite Mexican restaurant in SLC. Its a great experience every time we have visited and Filipe, our server tonight made it a memorable night. This is a reoccurring spot for us and I dont see that changing any time soon.“

“Grand opening specials and delicious food keep us coming back twice in a week now. It is located next to a local Target, so they have a great position to succeed with the flow of traffic and a large parking lot. I hope these specials remain the same or similar, the food economy needs places like this! Food should be affordable and tasty. You guys do both, excellent job.“

“both the birria tacos and the tamales were delicious! looking forward to eating here again- next time I'll take some tamals home with me :)“

“John is great! He always remembers us and he went above and beyond by making my girlfriend a mocktail for free since she wasn’t 21 but wanted to try the cosmopolitan.

Overall service is decent here, sometimes a little slow during peak hours. However, John always does a great job.“

“I’ve been here. . . oh, maybe 100 times the past two years. I absolutely LOVE it. They don’t use lard in their beans, their tortillas are vegan, and the fajita veggies are the best. Vegan burritos, ftw. Thank you, Carl, et al, for providing my this urban respite.“

“amazing place so much space and the food is amazing! burrito came out big and smothered it was perfect 🙏 thank you guys loved the agua fresca de tamarindo too! 😇“

“This is easily the most astonishing Mexican resturant I have had in a long time, the food is some of the most fresh I have seen and all the food taste like it was homemade and veggies seemed fresh from the garden“

“I tried the steak, shrimp, and Al Pastor tacos last week, and they were delicious! And besides it’s taste, the tacos came with a lot of meat or shrimp in it which is not usual, especially with the shrimp. I hardly recommend any food truck or place, but you have to go try these! It’s a MUST! I come from Cali and It’s hard to find a great taco place, but this right here is by far one of my favorites out of 2 places now. Thanks for such yummy food!“

“The food is delicious and the employees are very friendly. Too many good things to reccomend just one.“

“Very good food, excellent service! Has been, and always will be, a great place to dine.“

“I recommend their tripa. Very delicious and crispy. GAS ⛽“

“SO much variety! Different foods, drinks, specials, seasonal items :D“

“My wife’s sister recommended this to us. It’s our new favorite restaurant. Quick service. Delicious food!“

“👍👍👍👍👍Had a terrific lunch here on Monday (6/23/25). Staff were all friendly and accommodating. Food was great. Not your regular Mexican dishes, more like Mexican with a unique twist! I had the Quesabirria (kind of like a quesadilla)and Ashly had the Birria Stew. We each chose lamb for the meat. These were made well, delicious and beautifully presented. Using lamb and the Birria style gave everything a unique, delightful flavor! It was a perfect afternoon for eating outside, too.“

“Give it a try! The appetizer chips were something I've never had before—they looked homemade, were on the thicker side, and had a seasoning that I believe included lime. They were delicious. For entrees, we had shrimp ceviche and grilled octopus. Overall, I liked the restaurant and the food, but the food was overpriced. I haven't found a place with better ceviche, though, so La Cevicheria is where I'll go when I want it.“

“incredible hard shelled tacos and my husband LOVES the Carna asada plate. we eat there weekly it's less expensive than fast food. I have a hard time with the spice and I have not had any problems. Best Mexican I have ever ate. Thank you so much and the service is great.“

“Delicious food, I can’t wait to try more“

“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)“

“Huge shoutout to Sheena and her team at Costa Vida for always taking such great care of us! Their customer service is consistently top-notch, and they somehow always manage to have our large catering orders ready on time with everything included and organized perfectly. The food is always fresh, delicious, and a huge hit with our dealership team every single time. We truly appreciate the reliability, professionalism, and hard work from everyone there. Easy 5 stars!“

“Not only did I get my delicious tamales to celebrate Christmas, but in my haste and distraction I left my wallet on the counter and the employees kept it for me. An hour later, when I was about to pay at this other place I realized I did not have my wallet. I called Victor’s Restaurant and they had it. My wallet was intact, and nothing was taken from it. Thank you, thank you, thank you for your honesty. God bless all of you. Merry Christmas and a happy New Year.“

“Les recomiendo los tacos están deliciosos tienen variedad y son muy amables“

“It’s such a cute little place on the corner. I love its location, it feels like you’re visiting a small town and eating local food here. Plenty of parking you just need to walk a little. I didn’t love the chips and salsa but I loved that they offer the first basket complementary. I got the daily special fried shrimp tacos. It was delicious, I would have liked more sauce on it. Felt a little dry. But such a cute place and atmosphere. Worth trying at least once 🥰“
