After spending nearly a week on the river in Utah, Red Iguana was our last stop before heading to…read morethe airport and home--and what a way to finish the trip. I knew they were famous for their mole dishes, so there was no question that I was going to try one. It absolutely lived up to the reputation. Rich, complex, packed with flavor, and unlike the typical Mexican food you find just about anywhere. After six days of rafting, camping, and eating along the river, sitting down to a great meal at Red Iguana felt like the perfect return to civilization. Great food, great atmosphere, and a fitting Utah send-off before flying back home to Pennsylvania. If you're visiting Salt Lake City, especially if you've never really explored mole before, Red Iguana is absolutely worth the stop. I know it'll be on my list the next time I'm in town.

Like always, Yelp helped me find another great spot! We were traveling through Utah and this was…read moreour first food stop of the trip. It definitely did NOT disappoint! The staff was friendly and welcoming. The restaurant was very clean. First of all, Muertos Cantina is a total vibe! The inside is so cool with fluorescent lighting, colorful decor and bottles displayed beautifully behind the bar. Even the bathrooms are worth mentioning! Each one is decorated differently with tons of bright colors. Seriously, each bathroom is like its own little fiesta sanctuary. Now for the FOOD! They start you off with fresh tortilla chips and a trio of salsas, and the chips were AMAZING (especially the flour chips). Each salsa had its own completely different flavor. The Red Chile Arbol had some heat, the Chipitle Lime Crema was smooth & creamu, and then there was the milder Tomatillo Verde, which was my favorite. Soooo good! We also tried the Agua Frescas. They were refreshing, flavorful and really pretty to look at. The watermelon was probably our least favorite, but to me anything watermelon flavored can sometimes taste a little watered down. The pineapple was definitely the winner because it was way more flavorful and satisfying. Then came the Elote Corn Dip. YUMMY! It had fire roasted corn, cheese, spices, crema, pico de gallo, cilantro and Tajín. It had so much flavor and texture. Definitely one I would order again. My daughter chose the Birria Ramen, and I think this might have been her favorite part of the meal. It had slow cooked beef birria, consommé, melty cheese and ramen noodles with cilantro and red onions, plus lime and radishes on the side. It had a little spice to it and was absolutely packed with flavor. She loved it! My husband ordered one of their burritos with a side of tater tots. The kid in him was VERY happy that tater tots were an option. And FYI the burritos here are HUGE. I ordered the Smothered Spicy Chile Verde Burrito, and OMG. It had braised pork in chile verde sauce with rice and refried black beans, wrapped in a flour tortilla and then smothered with MORE chile verde, melted cheese and chipotle lime crema. It was MASSIVE and SO GOOD! I honestly have yet to find anything in Reno that compares to this one. I would order it again in a heartbeat. And whatever you do, SAVE ROOM FOR DESSERT! We got the churro beignets, and they were fantastic. Covered in cinnamon sugar and drizzled with caramel and condensed milk... seriously, what more do you need? They were the perfect way to finish the meal. Muertos Cantina ended up being such a great first stop on our Utah trip. Fun atmosphere, really good food, huge portions and so many different flavors. Again the atmosphere set the entire vibe for our meal. Yelp came through for me again!

My SO was craving a burrito from here so I grudgingly went along for moral support, if not to eat…read more Based on my snacking off of his plate and perusing the new menu, I am bumping them up to 4 stars. The food is still very good here and some of my previous gripes are no longer an issue. I can now order tacos and burritos à la carte again. While there is still no way to go pick whatever salsa I want and the options are still more limited than before, at least they bring out 3 of my favorites with the chips now. The drinks are still just okay , a shadow of their former selves and I will never be able to accept the loss of my beloved watermelon margarita, the way they used to make it, but I will concede the drinks are decent. Service was fine. Parking is a hassle but that's just Sugarhouse. ‍ So yeah, I guess I'm back to "willing to eat here once in a while", from "I'm never eating here again". They even have a nice taco Tuesday deal which I may hit up in the near future.

I was excited to try the grilled octopus it was great! I wish is had a little more chae from the grill on it but the flavors were brilliant. It was quite large so I unfortunately didn't finish it. Everyone loved the salsas they brought out first and the chips were warm, but crispy and salted perfectly. My coworkers got various dishes like the carnitas, chili colorado, sugar cane filet and they all highly enjoyed their dishes. Everyone said they would come back and are eager to try some other menu items. At the end we got a Butter cake to share and it was scrumptious! Highly recommend trying it

The salsa for the chips had a slight kick to it but not enough to stop you from digging in for more. Great experience and staff.

This was one of the worst service experiences we've ever had, especially considering this was not…read moreour first time visiting. Unfortunately, our experience with our server, Letty, completely changed our opinion of this restaurant. There were two main issues that made our visit frustrating: 1. We did not receive our drinks until after our food arrived, and we actually had to remind our server that we were still waiting on them. When Letty brought out our food, we politely asked about our two cokes and were told, "Give her more time." We felt we had already been very patient and only asked after our food had arrived. Waiting for drinks while eating a meal was frustrating, especially since the restaurant was not busy and was actually starting to slow down during the last hour we were there (around 8-9 PM). 2. While we were eating, Letty refilled our water and the table next to us, then continued having a long conversation with the neighboring table while standing very close to us. It felt like we were being completely ignored, and the lack of awareness for our personal space made it difficult for my husband especially to comfortably enjoy his meal. We understand that everyone has busy shifts, but the level of attentiveness and service we experienced was disappointing. We left feeling frustrated and unlikely to return after this visit and would NOT recommend this place to anyone.

I feel obligated to let everyone in on a little secret - El Cholo has simplified their menu, lowered prices and if you want a solid meal in a fun setting, grab a seat at the bar. Margaritas are now $7. Yep. $7. Tasty, but even more so for $7. Grab a seat, order a couple of carne asada street tacos and an order of their insanely good chipotle glazed chicken wings (three per order) and a house El Cholo margarita. The tacos and the wings are $5 per order and for less than $20, you have a great deal on some tasty food. Don't worry, they'll bring chips and salsa, too - as is customary and free. Yes, these deals are only for folks at the bar, but it's a nice place to be. In a crowded, competitive dining environment and with costs to run a restaurant rising all the time, it's nice to see El Cholo try to put butts in seats via a decent bargain. It's your fault if you don't take advantage. Did I mention the $7 margarita? See you at the bar, amigos!

I recently traveled to Salt Lake City for a conference, and the Red Iguana was highly suggested! I…read morecame in with a large part of around ~14 people, and they were extremely accommodating to our party. At first it doesn't look like it, but this restaurant is huge. There's so many different rooms and areas, it's easy to get lost! Despite that, it's a high energy environment, with lots of music and conversation happening. Service was wonderful here as well, our server was friendly, patient, and happy to answer any questions we had! Food was excellent. One of my favorite things is the mole sampler that they provide at the beginning -- having never had mole before, it's a wonderful way to get familiar with the dish and get exposure to the different types. For my entree, I went with the mole Amarillo, it has a sweet base with golden raisins, tomatoes, and zucchini. Portions were honestly huge for what you're paying, and I thought the mole itself was so flavorful, with the perfect balance of sweet and savory flavors. Definitely recommend anyone stop by Red Iguana if you're in town. I'd love to come back and try out their other dishes some day!
