The Cardenas family has been putting out some in of the best mexican food in the SLC valley for forty plus years!
My go to dishes are

Carnitas
Chile verde
Rellenos
Their moles are spectacular and you can ask for a tasting plate.

Margaritas are just fine,
And thrir food menu is extensive. Large portions.

Red Iguana can be difficult to get into for lunch, so they opened red iquana two, two blocks away!
Much larger and a long bar you can eat at without reservations
.long live the memory of Ramon Cardenas, who.ran the place until his untimely deAth, and rave in on for Luz Maria and her husband, who.have kept their fathers tradition alive

First timer here. Anna is what you call a perfect server, from asking if I had any allergies, to refilling my drink as needed. Food came out hot and really fast, I recommend the mole traditional red one. The only thing I would ask is for another small plate because the food is so much you can definitely feed two with one plate. Chips were good salsa is just the right spice. Definitely reserve a table prior to going since it fills up really fast. I love when a restaurant gives water before ordering your drinks that is very considerate of them. Who ever is running this place is definitely doing really well. I come from the border so the expectation is really high for me. This place is 10/10. Won’t go wrong, I promise!

Excellent employees with yummy food. We went out of our way to go there but long wait to get in with others trying to get in front of us to go in first. Just weird

I’ve been here 3 times and every time the food has been fantastic. The service is outstanding and I’d highly recommend Red Iguana to anyone who visits Utah or lives here year round. It’s worth the hype.

We've enjoyed Red Iguana for many years and it is generally really great Mexican food. The wait can be lengthy so be prepared. Be sure to try the mole sauces. We can't recommend the carnitas anymore because they've been dry at both locations.
