I came here to place a carry out order and the service was great! But the food wasn’t very good. I ordered the Carne Asada quesadilla and there was hardly any meat in the quesadilla. It was mostly just chunks of fat. I also found two full Bay leaves in my quesadilla and a bunch of little chunks of bay leaves as well. Which is weird because you are definitely supposed to take those out before serving. There was also just a pool of grease at the bottom of my plate on the Carne Asada broth. Also the carne Asada broth had lots of chunks of fat in it. it just tasted like grease not really like a flavorful broth.

The food was pretty mid. Somewhat bland and a little soggy. Not bad, but there are a lot better options out there, even for Utah Mexican. Staff was friendly, but they didn't really ever come check on us or refill our waters or anything like that, and it took us awhile to get the check. Not terrible, but I probably won't be going back.

The food was great. The restaurant was full but there was only one person to wait tables and work the front desk.

We waited for over 30 minutes after placing our drink order and never received anything. When we asked if someone would be attending to us, the gentleman at the counter—who was casually chatting with someone at the register—dismissively said he was “busy.” He then told us, “If you don’t like it, there’s the door.” I’ve never experienced such rude and disrespectful customer service. Completely unacceptable. I won’t be returning and wouldn’t recommend this place to anyone.

I am reviewing this to remind myself to never eat here again. The service was okay, but nothing great. The chips and salsa, if you could call it salsa. It was more like crushed tomatoes, zero flavor.
I was excited when they brought out my chimichanga until I tasted the marinated pork. It was tough and chewy. Not great meat at all. Then the shredded chicken in my wife's flautas was as hard and crisp as the tortillas. Not great food at all. There are many more Mexican restaurants nearby that serve much better food.
