“We do not dine out often due to the poor food quality of many restaurants; however, when our friends found this organic, gluten-free diner, I was intrigued. The food was an absolute celebration of life. Delectable delights danced on an ambrosial causeway of artistic creation few eateries achieve. Our table ordered a variety of entrees and drinks. We started with complimentary chips, avocado and verde sauce. Very tasty. For the main course, I choose enchiladas and was curious about the horchata (rice milk soaked in cream with cinnamon), so I had this as well. Normally, I do not order specialty drinks, but their horchata was an exceptional experience as was the hand-squeezed limeade. I highly recommend both. Reading many of the other reviews that criticized the room temperature water, the service, and the ambiance, I must adamantly disagree. The best temperature for water when dining is room temperature. And their water is finely filtered and refreshing. The service may be perceived as slow, but I love being left to chat and laugh with my party. I relish this time. A meal out should be relaxing in a friendly, pleasant atmosphere without feeling rushed—and it was. The dining area is a little noisy, like most restaurants in this country. As an experienced sound engineer, I would recommend some sound absorbers blended into the corners, some appropriate picturesque art absorbers on the walls, and maybe a row of carpet down the main walkway to absorb sound and define the lovely wait staff’s path. The price: well worth it. You will not be disappointed. Spend without regret, and enjoy the articulation of tastes that shall frolic upon thy palate. Thank thee for a wondrous dining experience for a traveling bard, Frosty“

“😁good and yummy place to eat, I have been here more than once in fact several time and is one of my favorite place to eat. The anytime special is fantastic for the price. I recommend this place.“

“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)“

“delicioso,buen precio, atención pronta.“

“UPDATE: We moved farther away and cannot constantly return as we used to. But recently came back for my birthday and the service continues to be exceptional. Always with a smile, always serving great portions. This is by far the best Chipotle experience ever. It f you’re ever in SLC area. Just come here!. We eat Chipotle at least 4-5 times a week, we consider ourselves regular clients and have been to many Chipotle locations in the Salt Lake County area, and no other location surpasses the quality of service, food, cleanliness, and friendliness of the staff at this lovely spot. We’ve been here so many times and are always greeted by big overwhelming smiles and that, my friends, is the reflection of great management, leadership and talented people who love what they do. Thank you for making our meals very special. We love you like you are our family - Many thanks to David, Nayeli, Angel and Josue, and for the others not mentioned here also thanks to you all!
