Blue Iguana |
|
(Restaurants - Mexican) |
|
165 S West Temple Arrowpress Square, Salt Lake City 84111 801-533-8900 |
 |
| |
Description:
DOWNTOWN. A SLC favorite, the Blue Iguana enjoys one of the downtown area's most enviable locations on the lower level of attractive Arrowpress Square. Featuring exposed red brick, stained glass windows, and retro (maybe second-hand) furniture, the place offers a charm that's all its own. The business crowd adores this cozy Mexican eatery, where you can order paella (a day in advance), chili verde, molé coloradito, or even nachos topped with Mexican sausage. |

Description:
DRAPER. Don't let the name put you off: this South Valley Mexican restaurant is high on the list for many locals. The cozy interior doesn't attempt to thrill or distract from the place's true attraction, which is the food. From delicious vegetarian chimichangas and chili verde burritos to the famous "grande" tacos or enchilada plates, Guadalahonky's makes sure that all customers leave full and satisfied. Besides, if you want a beer or margarita, Guadalahonky's is the only Draper restaurant that serves booze. |

Red Iguana |
|
(Restaurants - Mexican) |
|
736 W North Temple, Salt Lake City 84116 801-322-1489 |
 |
| |
Description:
DOWNTOWN. The Cardenas family owns the Red Iguana, and that makes the food as authentic as you can get without moving to Tijuana. Mole, red sauce and cheese sauces are prepared from scratch weekly, a bit of added attention that makes the food that much better. One bite and you'll never want to eat at a chain Mexican restaurant again. Among the favorites you'll find are nachos (a local favorite), burritos, mole dishes and more. The real thing! Business casual attire. |

Rio Grande Cafe |
|
(Restaurants - Mexican) |
|
270 S Rio Grande St, Salt Lake City 84101 801-364-3302 |
 |
| |
Description:
DOWNTOWN. This fun restaurant (the toy train and jukebox still work and, yes, the Taco Lady is made of papier-mâché!) is a terrific place to stop before a sporting event or concert – or afterwards, for that matter. The Rio Grande boasts all sorts of cures for the munchies: the always-popular Rio Grande taco, the Santa Fe enchilada, and the "grande-sized" super burrito. During warmer months, a younger crowd packs the patio area early and often, enjoying what many regard as the city's best nachos and coldest cervezas. |
