Carnitas Taco
Grace S.

On a recent road trip from St. George to Salt Lake City we stopped at Beaver Taco 2, (not the free standing big restaurant -- the one inside the convenience store at the gas station/truck stop) So, I had read a few reviews and one person commented on the shrimp tacos so I gave them a try! I must say, the shrimp were tender, plump and perfectly cooked and topped with a delicious white sauce, which was very complementary; these tacos tacos were absolutely delicious! My husband had Carnitas tacos and he enjoyed them. Fresh cut ripe tomatoes, lettuce, avocado, and lime. We enjoyed it so much that we stopped again on our way back!But this time, it was close to closing (a few minutes before 10 PM) but they were welcoming and took our order and made 4 tacos from scratch, and everything was delicious! Yummy horchata too! I'd definitely recommend stopping on your way between St. George and Salt Lake City for yummy tacos. I'm sure the rest of the food is very good as well but that's what we ate.

Quick Rating: Pulled into the Beaver Pilot / Flying J with my rig today. Found a rather hidden Taco Place without a direct entrance from the adjacent gas station. They look like they're doing some light construction, remodeling the place. I asked if they had any Al Pastor Tacos, and the closest thing they offered was the adobada. Close enough. So put in an order for 2 lengua (Beef Tongue) tacos and 1 Adobada and wasn't expecting too much--- being that everywhere you go in Los Angeles at night there's a taco stand in every curbside and corner. Here's the verdict: Portions were huge, which for the price to portion ratio, it made sense each taco was 5.00 versus LA Street prices 2.00-2.50/ per. The soft taco skin was corn tortillas not flour, and the beef tongues were leaning on the overdone side of the spectrum. It was good, just a bit overcooked. The adobada pork was marinated very well, like a Birria base but with pork. Enjoyed this snack. What really stood out with the tacos were the fresh tomatoes garnished with the tacos, the onions, fresh, and with the adobada, they even gave it a touch of guac to even out the richness from the fats. I want to recommend to everyone their Salsa Roja, if you are a true heat lover, love all things spicy, the Salsa Roja is a must try; the salsa Verde, I'm not too much of a fan, but I don't see why they shouldnt start selling Salsa Rojas in those Mason Jars. Very happy with my decision to detour into Beaver, take a break here and explore this establishment tucked into the corner of the gas station.

Enchilada plate

Great little spot out in Utah! Super fast and friendly service! I ordered the enchilada plate and an asada torta! Both were delicious!! The torta bread was so tasty and I got the enchiladas with both chicken and cheese. Definitely recommend stopping here.

California burrito

We kept hearing about how amazing the churros at Beaver Taco were... so finally we stopped by to try them. The verdict: they are delicious. Particularly at their low price point. Also they have a drive thru and it's next to the gas station, so if you want a quick treat during your travels this is a smart stop. I also got a California burrito. It was average so I'll probably order something else next time.

Eat Fresh Beaver!

When you see a sign on the highway advertising fresh tacos in a town called Beaver, who wouldn't want to stop by and check it out. I gotta say, I love me some Beaver Taco! This is a nice hidden gem just off highway 15 in Beaver, Utah. We were on a long road trip and stopped in for lunch. Beaver Taco has a nice selection of Mexican cuisine favorites including menudo on the weekends. Beaver Taco makes really good tacos. It's always a treat when you can find good tacos in a small town. The service was really nice here. I got me some pastor and carne asada tacos and enjoyed every bite. They also have a condiment bar if you want extra toppings for your tacos.

Kids meal that totally filled our 10 year old up

On a recent roadtrip up to SLC, I stopped by for a grab and go kind of dinner before heading to the Supercharger on the other side of the highway. Everyone orders the Breakfast Burrito, so why not? I went with the mixed which included eggs, cheese, potatoes, Bacon, Ham and Sausage. The burrito was the standard size and was folded well, so it held together through the entire eating experience. I asked them to put the red hot salsa inside to make the Togo just that much easier, but they failed to do so. Luckily, I asked for some on my way out. The burrito was pretty good and if traditional breakfast burrito style, but nothing I'd consider special. Their Red Hot Salsa was just that hot. Not so hot that it was unbearable, but hot enough to make your nose drip. The Pina Colada Agua Fresca was super sweet and almost syrupy. We ended up having to suck some down and then add some water to make it not so...

Let's be real in a small town like Beaver where from the freeway if you blink you might miss it you need a catchy name. Is is it classy? May be not, but catchy it is. We stopped by early morning to pick up breakfast burritos before heading into the canyon. It smelled delicious. Service was quite slow to acknowledge and help me at the counter once inside, but they did apologize and had my food made quickly. The green sauce I received with my meal was subpar for me, but the bacon burrito was amazing without sauce. It was large enough to keep me full for hours. The location was clean and also offers a drive thru.

I was really excited to try out Beaver Taco. The place was jampacked and they prepared the food very quickly. I got some street tacos and they didn't have a whole lot of flavor. I didn't care for the salsa flavors. I guess I should've tried a chimichanga instead. They have a fun wooden beaver statue. You can get your picture out front.

Carnita and carne asada burrito mix  Yummm!!
Cindy S.

Sooooo pleasantly surprised!!! When I was trying to decide what to order I asked the cashier what was inside the carne asada burrito and she said guacamole and salsa and I was very confused because I have never had a burrito without a bunch of other fillers like rice, beans, etc. Even though I was skeptical and was sure she was wrong or misunderstood me, I ordered a mix of carne asada and carnitas burrito. My husband ordered a mix of lengua (tongue) and shrimp burrito . She did say his comes with some rice which he asked for it on the side. When I tell you that my burrito was really only filled with meat and just enough guacamole and salsa, that was the truth. It was big and delicious!!! My husband's burrito was also really good. Their mild tomatillo salsa went great with it. I also ordered a churro, even though to be honest I haven't REALLY enjoyed a churro since going to Brazil where they fill it with dulce de leche or other fillings, but again, it was delicious!!! It was hot, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside with the perfect amount of sugar. Not at all dry and overpowered with sugar and cinnamon. My husband had heard this place was good and we were just passing through Beaver towards North Utah. I wish this place was closer to where I live. I'll definitely will be stopping here again when we are traveling this way. Btw, the burrito was only $8.50 and the churro $2. A great value for sure.

MY GOD the new crew is absolutely amazing! Especially the afternoon crew. There's this girl with i think braces and glasses; ABSOLUTE angel and because of her service I'm always tipping. She's like the Valerie's soul of the restaurant. I kid you not. She knows all her regulars order and is always serving with a smile. Also when she's working with whom I assume is her regular staff, you can always count on the condiment tables to be stocked, til it gets around the evening time. The ambiance of the restaurant is pretty simple, nothing to extravagant, but it is welcoming nonetheless. The food? I mainly come here for the Menudo (the girl who I was just talking about will immediately know who I am LoL) but yes, the menudo. My homegirl told me about menudo, and now Valerie's is my plug for that. It's flavored to my liking, which I deeply appreciate. Do understand that sometimes you may get more bones and cartilage than the cow honeycomb tripe. So ask if you could not get that bones and stuff? I haven't, but I don't think it'll hurt to ask. I like the crew that makes my menudo, so I accept it no matter what I get. If you are drunk off your behind, then baby, come on down to Valerie's for some pretty okay food. I'm not a huge fan of tacos and such, but they're menudo is *chefs kiss* in my opinion. So I can only give my opinion on that. As well as the service. Don't forget to tip them! If a cashier remembers my order off the bat, that means 1, I'm a big back, 2, they are that versed in knowing what I want, and 3, I'm a big back. K bye!
