Del Barrio Cafe

UPDATE: came back a second time and got some fish tacos this time. WOW! Unreal. So so good, and SO much food! We love this place. Our son also slammed back a quesadilla, rice, and beans. So you know it was good if the toddler was impressed!

WOW. We loved our experience here! We arrived around 6:30 pm and were told it was a 30 minute wait but were seated after 20 minutes. The server was so sweet to us and our 2-year-old son. We ordered the birria tacos and they did not disappoint. So delicious. We will definitely be back!

After multiple failed attempts to get into this place, (mostly because the place is super packed all the time), we were finally able to get a seat. Sneaked in on a Thursday night and plenty of tables available. Within 20 minutes, all tables were full and I now understand why. This place has to be one of the best Mexican restaurants in Utah. The high rating was no fluke. Ordered multiple types of tacos, (fish, carne asada, shrimp, al pastor), all were great. There will be a little wait for your food due to how busy this place is, but definitely worth it! Great job, Del Barrio!!!

Being from So Cal, good, authentic and delicious Mexican food has been tough to find in Utah. I’ve had this place saved as “want to go” for quite some time but just never made it out, until tonight! My wife and I went for dinner and got a Pastor quesadilla to share, then I ordered the Pastor cheesy tacos and Birria Tacos. The pastor tacos were absolutely incredible. The Birria tacos were the best I’ve ever had. The consommé was amazing, the pineapple in the Pastor tacos and the crispy cheese on the ends made them perfect.

I am thrilled about finally trying this place as we will be back MANY times. I highly recommend. Also, the chips and salsa were delicious too! Homemade chips were warm and fresh. Our server, Ari, was very sweet, very kind and also helped with my decision on the menu and I am (clearly) very happy with it.

Can’t wait to go back!

Hands down one of my top favorite restaurants. The Birria Tacos are fantastic and a must-have when coming here. All of the other dishes I’ve tried here have been amazing as well. Aside from the absolutely delicious food, the servers are also very kind and sweet. I’ve never had a bad experience here.

This place is truly a hidden gem! We (party of two adults) visited early on a Friday evening, and got there just before the crowds so we were seated right away, but there was a pretty good line/wait by the time we left. The service was top notch, the ambiance really felt like a Mexican neighborhood cafe, and the food is amazing! Before we ordered they brought out the most amazing homemade chips and salsa. We ordered a smothered burrito as well as tacos. The tacos were some of the best I’ve ever had—the meat was so tender and flavorful! The only negative I have is to skip dessert. We ordered the tres leches cake and while the portion was large it was dry and didn’t taste good at all—actually the worst tres leches I’ve ever had. So, when you come, skip dessert.
