Chak Balam Mexican Restaurant

Best food in town, hands down, might be some of the cheapest too - about $15 per person. This is better Mexican food than most of the places in Salt Lake area.
We tried a few of the local restaurants on our trip and this was the best. If we could do it over again, we would come here every other night. Just excellent Mexican food with some more modern twists to keep it interesting.
Small place, seems newer. Service was good. It was quiet and not very busy even on a weekend.

I got the flautaus with pork and they were above expectations. My wife got tacos with shrimp, octopus, and steak. The shrimp taco was our favorite, wouldn't order octopus again.

Nice Mexican place if you are visiting the nearby Capitol Reef National Park.

We ordered steak fajitas, tacos and vegetable soup. The soup was way way too salty for me or my wife.

The service was fast and tentative. The margaritas were also pretty good!

Overall it is pretty decent place in a small town (you can’t ask for too much)!

Came in for a quick lunch, was absolutely delicious. Fresh chips and salsa, ordered the fish and shrimp tacos. Both were fresh with awesome pico, cabbage. Shrimp was a touch spicy! Overall a great stop and the best Mexican we've found in the area.

Food was great. Salsa for Salsa and chips was a bit too salty and no real taste. Drinks were okay. I'd not order drinks again.

Tamales and chimichanga was great. Our server was nice enough to give us spicy sauces, the green sauce was super delicious.

Flan was great and I highly recommend it.

This place was INCREDIBLE! It is so unassuming from the outside but once you get inside, it’s obvious how much love they put into the vibe of the place. The wall has beautiful, artisan and hand crafted masks from different regions of Mexico and it was bright and inviting. The staff was extremely helpful, nice and attentive. I was so stoked to find vegan options aside from rice and beans in rural Utah! The food was fresh and delicious. I would definitely recommend this to anyone traveling through Torrey on their way to capitol reef or on their way home! You won’t regret it!
