“Nommmmmmm!! The chili verde burrito took up the entire takeout container... I mean wall to wall of it!! Delish. This gringa loved that odobo chili delish red hot sauce. Will be back... alot. I mean alot!! You and eos should have a collaboration ??“
“Chipotle is a chain so I’m not gonna go talk about the food because those who get it get it and those who don’t don’t. Imma pop off about the service. These employees are so beyond nice. They are super friendly and do not skimp on any of the toppings. My husband accidentally ordered all the salsas and spiced himself out but after explaining to the employee he happily remade his food without salsa. They laughed about it with my husband and he had a fun story plus I went back the next day and the same amazing employees were there and provided amazing customer service. 10/10 recommend.“

“The food was amazing and this says a lot because I don't usually eat tacos. The cashier was very friendly, and the restaurant was tastefully decorated and clean. The food came out promptly and everything was piping hot. The beef ramen was DA BOMB! We will definitely return again the next time we're in Ogden UT.“
“My husband had their street tacos at work and insisted I try them. We ordered a lot of tacos and were happy to find a great street tacos place in our area. Haven't tried the tortas and don't think we will. Not our thing. Nice place on the inside. Nice gal and 2 workers in the back. Efficient service. Not crowded. No taco Tuesday deal.“
“I never write reviews, but this place blew me away! Customer service by the manager was incredibly nice and she talked us through the whole menu and made it a memorable experience. We love burritos and they did not disappoint as well as their stacker! Will definitely be coming again. Also try the queso because it is to die for. Well worth it!“
“Awesome food and amazing service. ordered to go and was waiting maybe 5 minutes after I ordered. The atmosphere was stunning! Beautiful, modern, clean. Fresh baked deserts ready to go. And it’s all decorated for Valentines Day too. I had the postre enchiladas and they were delicious. Definitely going back again.“
“Small place, big flavors. They don’t play here, had some huevos rancheros and the menudo. Feels like walking into my mom’s kitchen, I even started getting flashbacks of the chancla and my mom yelling at me to get out of the way. Stop by, no regrets.“
“I’ve been to this a food truck quite a while and it has NEVER disappointed me, the food is never dry or bland, always has flavor. My favorite meats are the sweet pork and pastor, seriously taste so good in burritos or vampiritos. Service was really nice.If you are in the area you need to check them out. Best Mexican food you’ll ever have!!“
“Great food i went with my sister and niece was helped by lupita a nice lady and a great cook. The food was fresh and delicious. Sadly i was visiting i wish i could have gone another time b4 my trip was over. Anyway this is authentic Mexican food coming from a Mexican food connoisseur from San Diego home is the best Mexican food ever“
“At first I thought I was in a McDonald's in Mexico. Not a taco bell, the tables looked like any other ff place, just with Mexican decorations. Once I got past that, I went to the counter, ordered one of the meals from the wall, 4 steak Street tacos and beans_rice. It was yummy! I had never had tres leches cake before, it was also good.“
“Their new location next to McDonald's is so amazing! Super friendly staff, beautiful decore, menudo and the cucumber agua fresca with lemon and chia seeds was hands down the best I have had! No more driving to West Valley or someones home for a good Menudo! This one is even better!“
“honestly this place is a five start, it's a family bussines restaurant, the food it's amazing, everything tates homemade ?...if you want to try something really Mexican give a try, this is not Mexican american place, so just try and be the “
“Wow!!! This is really good authentic Mexican food. If you know, you know. The place is a little meager and their english is not that good, but they are super friendly and polite. Most importantly, they can cook. It is the food that will have you coming back again and again. Try everything. You'll end up having several reasons to come back. I now eat lunch there every Wednesday.“
“This is the best little Mexican place in the Ogden/Riverdale area, for my money. The food is fantastic, especially the carne asada. The street taco special plate is outstanding, and the chulavista nachos are amazing. Great food, reasonable prices, excellent service. It's a regular lunch stop for me.“
“Don't expect anything more than a glorified indoor taco cart, plastic utensils, plates, patched walls, and leaky sinks. This is my new favorite taco spot; they have all the meats I mean all of them and the flavor is beautifully simple; that's the draw for me the salsa in the salsa cart was just as flavorful and adds to the simplistic nature, I tried to get one of each taco, but there are too many I couldn't find my favorite they were all so so good, I can't wait to get back to try the rest, I did have a torta, and wow the bread was not too much it was just right it had a great texture. The flavor was on point, the staff was so friendly and had the best smile, and the ambiance was clean where it mattered. Bottom line, if you like tacos and can appreciate what this is, it will be your favorite.“
“Ok. Seriously. Come here and just eat their chips and salsa. What an amazing flavor. The salsa they bring to the table is called arranchera. And it is the best salsa I've ever had. You're gonna be tempted to drink what's left... Just saying. If you want more than the complimentary serving, though, you'll be paying $4.99.The tacos Al pastor are nearly perfect. The pork isn't rubbery or like jerky. It is perfectly cooked alongside the pineapple. The carne asada taco was a close second in deliciousness.The enchilada, beans and rice were very good as well. Apparently the fish tacos are amazing but we didn't try them this time.We will be back!“
“My family and I went for my birthday dinner and got there about a half hour before the buffet started, which was a huge bummer but totally our fault. Everything was really good except for the tortilla tonight was off and I'm not sure why. We are devoted customers though and will for sure be back!!“
“Food wasn't as authentic as I would have liked, over seasoned and over cooked. The atmosphere was great though and so was the service! I had the Chile Verde smoothered burrito with rice and beans. Rice and beans were very overcooked.Parking: Very limited number of parking spots and street parking was full. We parked a block away and walked.“
“My favorite place for tacos in Ogden. The service is quick, the owners are great people and the food is delicious.The best place in Ogden for tacos without a doubt! The service is fast, the owners are good people and the food is very delicious.“
“4 Stars. The chips and salsa were great. The service was wonderful. The restaurant was cozy and cute. I ordered the Swiss Enchiladas and they were delicioso. My wife got Ray's Tostada. We were not impressed with that one. The pork tasted more like Tuna fish.We would definitely go back and try something else.“
“The food is amazing, authentic Mexican— the tortillas are made in-house and were fantastic, and beans and rice done perfectly! Our entrees were delicious, fried ice cream was a treat!! Many thanks to Carlos for excellent recommendations and fantastic service. Many compliments to the chef. Will be back next time we visit Layton. ?“
“Not only is the food consistently excellent, the family running this business could not be nicer people. Great service, always welcome and engaging, fun and clean environment. This has been an almost weekly staple for my 93 yr old father and I. My dad speaks fluent Spanish, and the owner always takes a moment to stop by the table and speak with my dad in Spanish, which makes his whole week. These are really wonderful people who care about their customers, and it shows in the quality of both their food and their service. Love this place and highly recommend it to anyone wanting a fantastic meal from a proudly-owned family business.“
“I went at a good time, just before the dinner crowd. Rebecca was my server. She was sweet, nice and greeted "my friend how are you "? She check on me, the food was brought out hot ,& promptly. I asked for one meal to be set to go, she made sure it was brought out with my main meal. I've been there twice now. This place I go to because of the service and food. I'm relaxed there. Thank you for you service and great food.“
“The serving staff is very courteous, attentive, and catered well to our vegan dietary needs.Vegetarian options: As far as vegan/vegetarian options, the Nachos Picantes (No Cheese) that comes with beans and pico is really tasty or go for a Fajita Veggies Burrito with beans and rice or a Bean Tostada loaded with fajita veggies, lettuce & pico. You can always get a side of rice and beans. They specified that the beans were for sure made without animal products.Dietary restrictions: GF“
“Got the birria burrito, chicken burrito and their nachos. Was satisfied with everything! The rice is delicious. 2 complaints, the red sauce is EXTREMELY spicy! 15 minutes later and my husbands mouth including mine is still on fire. The birria sauce is super watery.Regardless, we will return.“
“We love love love Garcias. The bean dip and warm chips are the best. And the food is reasonably priced. My husband and I come here all the time it’s reliable and consistent. The food is amazing and the employees are great too! It is a very welcoming and warm atmosphere.“
“Don’t let this “scary looking restaurant” scare you away. We usually get street tacos from the street cart on 26th and Washington Blvd. Lately no one there. So, we decided to give this company a try. WOW! YUMMMMY!While it may not be the prettiest place to dine at or (take out in my case) the service was was amazing, and their little tacos were packed with flavor. We purchased 5 different ones and were impressed with all 5 of the meats we chose. They definitely earned our repeat business. Our new favorite local street tacos.Tacos La Tapatia - thank you for being in business. You really are a hidden gem. Those tacos were amazing. We could literally taste the love you put into your food. See you again soon! Muchas Gracias por todo! Nos AMOS los tacos muchismo!“
“I could find no discernable differences between the food here and one of the more common places like Betos or Rancheritos (not that this is a bad thing), so I don't have any justification to drive the extra distance to this place instead of those. Prices are also pretty expensive here. For two ham breakfast burritos and nothing else, I paid a total of $18.21 after tax and credit card fee. I miss the old days when these types of Mexican restaurants were a great value because of how much food you got for a reasonable price. When I look at the price of this same burrito from a user-submitted menu photo, I can see that there's been an almost 30% increase in the price since that pic was posted only 2 years ago. In my opinion, it no longer makes sense to eat at places like this unless you are REALLY craving it. Overall though, the food was good and the worker was really nice. These types of restaurants will continue to be a "once a year" type of food for me.“
“When I have extreme cravings for chilaquiles I go here. I love the choices of meat that you can put on top and you can get eggs and you can get red or green sauce. Everything was packed with flavor. The two salsas those were actually tasty the red one was very picoso. The chile relleno the sauce had so much flavor. And nothing was cold. The bisteak was seasoned perfectly it tasted so bomb. The egg and the chilaquiles complimented each other, the sauce I couldn't get enough of it. The rice and beans even had flavor. Everything was packaged nice and neat. These pictures do not do the food Justice at all. Was a very nice comfort food late lunch. I don't eat here as often as I like but when I do I have a good experience.“
“The best place in Utah for authentic Mexican style chicken and rice (pollo con arroz) or just a quick simple but crazy delicious meal. That guy that said pollo loco is better is most likely not used to authentic food :) We get the quarter chicken and 3 tacos and share. I will pay anything for that green sauce too, best jalapeño salsa I’ve ever had! This place is incredible!“
“Loved this place and loved the street tacos! I usually get carnitas and asada. Better than average carnitas and above average asada! Would just get asada next time. 2 different kinds of red and green sauce. All the fixings you could want. Small market inside as well. Every day from 3 PM to 8 PM (close) they do 4 street tacos and a drink for $10. Nice lady who took our order. This will be our new street taco go-to location since it is near our home.“
“I bought the large pizza with 10 toppings (special something or other) and got a garlicky bread thing on the side and the price was awesome and it tastes delicious.Don't bother with their website though, it looks like it was made a long time ago and it doesn't have a menu on there as far as I could tell :P“
“This restaurant really is about the great food when it comes down to its authenticity with street style tacos, the music, environment is like very welcoming once you're inside and the amazing choices of veggies, salsa and drinks can not be beaten, taco Tuesday is great too at 2 for 1.75$ , I highly suggest their asada and al pastor tacos with their guacamole and green salsa and don't forget the Mexican imported cokes!!!“
“I bought the large pizza with 10 toppings (the Itame) and got a garlicky bread thing on the side and the price was awesome and it tastes delicious.Don't bother with their website though, it looks like it was made a long time ago and it doesn't have a menu on there as far as I could tell :PEdit* at this point I've tried every pizza and I love them all.“
“Very clean and well kept. The inside has a more modern feel with a number of plants and greenery making it feel fresh. The food was good, the cheese enchiladas aren't a melted cheese, they are shredded and left as such. But flavors were stellar and there was plenty of food. Highly recommend.“
“The tacos were delicious and the service was pretty fast. We walked in right as they opened and ordered two plates and four tacos to go. Everything was packaged nicely, and the food was still hot and fresh when we ate it. It came with some green semi-spicy salsa on the side. We ended up spending around $30 for three people.“
“I love this restaurant, especially for Vegan Bean & Lettuce Sopes. Sunny outdoor seating in front was nice for the Spring.Vegetarian options: Their beans are made vegan.Dietary restrictions: Spanish-speaking is a plus.Kid-friendliness: Very kid-friendly. They have been very kind when I have brought my service dog as well.“
“One of our favorite places in Ogden to eat. Truly great food and the waiter/waitresses are so nice and informative on what to eat and what is top of the menu.The food is always flavorful, great service and never overly busy to where you are waiting too long to get a seat. Highly recommend and they also have a kids menu which is nice.Parking: Roughly 10 spots right in front of Sonora Grill but there is parking all along the streets that you can usually find parking quickly.Kid-friendliness: Nice atmosphere and outside area for the kids to run around on. Also kid friendly menu.“
“Very kind staff. Very clean. The food hit home. I'm from Texas and my parents are from Mexico. The food was delicious. I had the coctel de camaron. Both the tostadas and coctel are super fresh and tasty. My fiancee had the enchiladas. Delicious. Also had an asada taco and the meat was marinated perfectly. Will definitely be going back soon.“
“We were so impressed with the wide variety on the menu, the deliciousness of the food, and the kind service. We ordered alpastor tacos and a huge family platter with steak, chicken, Shrimp, cactus, onion that came with rice, beans, picó de gallo, tortillas, and guacamole. It was delicious!!! It was the first time I had cactus, and it was wonderful. My son has had it several times, and he said it was the best he had ever had. The food is VERY authentic. If you want authentic food, with good music playing, and a great salsa bar...go here.“
“The guys here are hilarious! We were the only ones in today (probably because of the holiday yesterday) and they treated us like royalty. The cooks came out and made sure we liked the sauces, our food was made fresh and they chatted with us about the area. That spicy sauce had us going and they were laughing about two white ladies enjoying such authentic food ? 11/10 atmosphere. The portions are huge and WELL worth the prices. They have a fridge full of Jarrittos and hearts full of love! Please accept our humble thank you for serving us. Mi abuela and I will definitely be back next week. We love you guys!Wheelchair accessibility: There was plenty of room on the line to order and the tables and booths are spaced out to allow for wheelchair and disabled access. The parking in front has a ramp area for easier access onto the sidewalk. There was no music playing and the lighting was quite sensory friendly“
“If you haven’t tried it yet, you should!!First time here, the food was delicious!Their main items are burritos and loaded fries. We got an Ol’Skool burrito and an El Torito burrito. The Ol’Skool had fries inside and that made all the difference! Amazing fries! There are two sizes of burritos and the smaller is just the right amount of burrito. They have fresh made sauces/salsas of varying heat. All yummy. We tired their hottest and it was a keeper.Wish we had gotten more things off the menu. Next time loaded fries and street tacos.Sorry no photos, it was too delicious to stop and snap one.“
