Short Crown Roast Barbecued Spareribs
Jasmine M.

After dealing with a family health scare, we were understandably anxious about dining out. For anyone caring for a loved one, it can be difficult to want a sense of normalcy and go out as a family while still managing their needs. The way Chimayo accommodated my family is something I will never forget. Our server Jared, the hostess up front, and the manager are incredible people. We asked to move to a quieter spot after being seated next to a larger group that was getting loud, and they immediately accommodated us with such kindness and understanding. Chimayo has always been a family favorite because the food is consistently delicious and top tier. However, after today, the food is simply the cherry on top. The compassion, attentiveness, and genuine care shown by the staff are what will truly stay with me. Exceptional customer service paired with incredible food. This place is special in every way.

This place was good, but I think it's expensive for expensive sake. If I'm gonna pay $50-$65 for a meal, I expect five stars. This place was a before because the flavors didn't quite hit as much. The duck enchiladas were just OK. The appetizer was probably our favorite part with the guacamole and tuna. The bread was also tasty with its dip. We got this to share for two people. I love the water cups. They're really fun.

Queso Fundido El Trio
Ally L.

This place was awesome! Came here for a group dinner the night before Valentine's Day. Kent was our waiter. Everything was awesome. Margaritas were strong and delicious. The bread at the beginning with the dip was the perfect starter after a long day of drinking we started with the el trio and it was delicious. Then we all ordered different entrees and were all impressed! Would definitely come back here again

Green Pipián Seared Trout Fajitas
Kelsey C.

Finished out our trip with a delicious dinner. We had a party of 15 and ordered a various selection of appetizers. The El Trio and Queso Fundido were my favorites. For my main course, I split the Tierra y Mar (steak and lobster) and Trout Fajitas.The lobster was incredible. Everyone at the table seemed to enjoy their food. Our server Matt was great and didn't miss a beat. I didn't like my margarita and he got me and my friend a new one, and also helped me organize a birthday desert for my friend. This was a great spot for a nicer group dinner

Wagyu & Sea bass entre

Amazing meal and ambiance. The ceviche was to die for. We also loved the wagyu & sea bass main courses. Would 10/10 recommend.

We made a reservation at this popular restaurant highly recommended in the MY Times. It is a southwest theme & we are sure to believe we are somewhere else. The wine & tequila lists are extensive. Cat waited on us & started with icy cold goblets of water, warm bread & a cilantro spread. She was so accommodating and told us all about the ingredients in our fabulous dishes. The entrees run $50+ and the glazed ribs are not to be missed. We started by sharing the Aztec nachos with ahi tuna with capers, avocado, pistachio pesto & a mango sauce. The portion was generous and sweet, salty creamy, just wonderful. Next came the ribs they were indescribably beautiful, unique & delicious. They were Instagramable! Chef Gudrun Thorne-Thomsen did an exceptional job!

vegetable enchiladas
Shabi M.

We loved our experience here. The Chimayó beet salad was vibrant and well balanced, and the mains really delivered. The herb-crusted Chilean seabass was perfectly cooked and flavorful, while the blackened Wagyu sirloin had great depth and a beautiful sear. The vegetable enchiladas were comforting and thoughtfully seasoned. Tasteful, flavorful food, a cute and inviting interior, and attentive service made the whole evening feel easy and enjoyable. Would definitely come back.

Beet salad
Marissa G.

Very unique dishes and pretty tasty. There weren't many people there when I went so the ambience was very chill. However, the staff gave good recommendations and guided us through the menu. I enjoy the experience and would go back.

Duck Enchiladas
Nikita K.

We tried this restaurant for dinner and noticed right away that the prices were pretty high. We decided to order the Duck Enchiladas. The dish looked great when it arrived, but it was a too salty. For the price, we expected it to taste way better. Our server was very friendly and knew the menu well,However the food took a long time to arrive. The atmosphere was really nice. It had a cozy, castle-like design , and even the cups and plates matched the medieval theme. Overall, it's a ok place

Duck Enchiladas
Jordan H.

Great service, food, and environment! Our servers were INCREDIBLE - they recommended the best dishes, not necessarily the most expensive. The free bread and dip was delicious. Margs are perfect. Food was so well seasoned. LOVED the duck enchiladas!

Elk London Broil*

This is my second year eating at Chimayo and think I love it more each time. The food is impeccable, it's fresh, tasty and the menu offers such a wide variety where you feel like you can try something new and 10/10 times be pleasantly surprised. I usually get the Elk steak but ventured to the trout fajitas and they did not disappoint. The duck enchiladas were also very rich, flavorful and filling. You have to start with the queso which is the best queso I ever had. And if you save room for dessert the churros are excellent. The wait staff was lovely and very happy to answer questions! Inside of the restaurant is also very cool has a rustic Spanish vibe to it.

This restaurant has friendly service, classy atmosphere, and photogenic plates. Everything feels so grand here-- from the chalices you drink from to the spiral staircase leading you to the downstairs bathroom. I ordered the chicken relleno and it was a large portion and tasty. I thought the garnishes here were over the top, but that could be nice if you're looking to celebrate something special. I would recommend this place for a small group or date. For a party of 3, we spent around $250.

My favorite tapas in all Utah! The best food and ambience ever! My favorites are Gambas con Bacon,…read moreCroquetas de Pollo, Butifarritas Con Brevas, Tortilla Espanola, Ojos De Buey, Gambas Al Ajillo Salsa Roja, and get extra rolls to dip in the sauces! For drink the Sangria! For dessert get Copa Cafe Madrid, it's my favorite dessert in the world!!! The ambience is so fantastic that it can be a very romantic experience!

If I was just rating food, it would be a 4.5. The food was incredible. When we first arrived, it…read moreseemed very disorganized. I feel like the hostess must have unexpectedly been out because the folks managing seating and reservations seemed a little lost. This was our first time here and I was pretty concerned about what the rest of our experience would be. We got to our table and then sat there for 10 minutes without any kind of greeting. Following the disorganization of getting seated, we weren't sure what was happening and almost left. I'm so glad we stayed. Once our server greeted us, it was smooth the rest of the evening. We ordered drinks (Old Fashioned and wine), both were excellent. Someone brought delicious soft rolls with olive oil and balsamic vinegar-excellent. We stuck with tapas and the portions were bigger than expected. We had a whole lineup of items we wanted, but filled up after three. We ordered a charcuterie plate that was an off menu special. Iberico and a truffle manchego cheese and a rosemary manchego cheese served with toasted baguette and grapes. It was delicious! We also ordered the Gambas Al ajillo salsa Roja (shrimp in a red sauce) and the Pulpo à la gallega (octopus). The shrimp were incredible. I could have eaten the sauce with a spoon. Okay, I DID eat the sauce with a spoon and then asked for more bread to sop it up. The octopus was a surprise. My husband ordered it and I was prepared to try a small bite. It was fantastic. The octopus was nicely chewy without being rubbery at all. And it was served with potatoes in a thin sauce that tasted like olive oil and paprika and onion. So good. We looked at the desserts and my heart said yes while my full stomach said no. I almost ordered the crème brûlée cake to go, but decided to come back another day. Our server (Zack) was great! I really think something happened with the hostess because the rest of the evening was so smooth. Very interesting interior. We sat at a small cafe table that felt strangely intimate despite how crowded it was. We'll be back!

I haven't been to Eva in years. We used to go quite often and I can't remember why we stopped…read more Apparently, this was our loss because Eva is still SO good! The interior is refreshed and more comfortable than it used to be. It's quiet enough to have a conversation but there is nice music for vibes. I was here with a friend and we ordered mostly small plates to sample and everything was fantastic. No misses at all. Cocktails were excellent as well. They are on the small side but tasted wonderful and packed a punch. Service was very good and the timing of everything that came out was spot on. The only weird thing was when I wanted to pay cash, the server came back to our table with his personal wallet to make change, which he couldn't and I ended up having to use my card. Not a big deal but very weird for a restaurant to not have cash to make change. If there was something that said electronic payment only, I guess I missed it. Anyhow, over all it was a very good experience and this place still slaps. I can't wait to go back with my SO.

10/5 best meal in SLC must eat if you're in the area. We had the works: drinks, tapas, and desserts…read morebut the tapas were the highlight. Each dish was thoughtfully curated with fantastic, unique, and flavorful sauce profiles. My favorite was the fried chicken upon a small bed of congee- the crispy nuts and other toppings were mouth watering the textures was simply *chefs kiss*. Steak and French pie pizza were great as well. The only dish we would probably skip next time is the oink oink, pork was on the tad dry side. Our server Aaron was attentive and friendly. Highly recommend Eva! Wooow

La Finca is a tiny place set inside a house. It feels very cozy, but there is not much space…read more Service was fine and the pacing of the food was good. The wine list is long, though there is not much by the glass. The reds we tried were good. The Crianza was my favorite, young and light but still flavorful, with a subtle dry finish. We ordered tortilla española, torta de cecina, patatas bravas, mejillones, and pinchos morunos. Everything had great flavor. There was some inconsistency with temperature. The patatas came out just warm, while other dishes were very hot. The pinchos morunos turned out to be more like a meatball on a stick. That may have been my misunderstanding, but when I see lamb pincho I expect grilled pieces of lamb. They were tasty, just more basic than I expected. For dessert we had churros. This may be personal preference, but I like to pick up a churro and dip it in chocolate without it breaking apart. These were more like a fried cake in the shape of a churro and required a spoon. They also have what looks like a very nice patio for good weather. I would be a bit concerned about speed of service if the patio is full, since the kitchen seems quite small. Overall, it was a good experience with well executed and flavorful tapas.
