They claim they have tacos de canasta! Not good please call them something else if you are not doing them right that’s misleading !!:-( The service was great for the girls that thrive to help while it takes loooong to get your food!

We stopped here for lunch after doing some shopping in Provo. I had a feeling that this place would be good based on their menu. We were brought freshly fried chips and a flavorful(although mild) red salsa to start. We ordered a pork al pastor huarache and a quesadilla with cheese and flor de calabaza. The quesadilla was the best part of our meal: a freshly made, thick, delicious corn tortilla foled over and stuffed with salty cheese, sauteed squash blossoms, lettuce, and queso fresco. The corn tortilla was perfect. The huarache was also good, although not as good as the quesadilla. The pastor was the best we’ve had in Utah so far, but still not authentically spit-grilled. We asked for a spicy salsa, and were given a super hot and fresh habanero sauce that we loved. It was actually spicy! A rarity in Utah County, apparently. The menu items here seem expensive: $ 7.99 for my quesadilla and $ 6.99 for my husband’s huarache. This is because they are HUGE! We could have split either of our dishes and had a full meal. Our waitress was very young, but very quick and attentive. Our food took a moderate amount of time to arrive; not super fast, but we were kept busy with our chips and salsa, and when the food did arrive it had obviously been freshly made, which is always worth a wait. The atmosphere of the restaurant is typical of a small Mexican place: TVs playing Spanish-language shows, decorated walls, candy by the register, and a partially open kitchen. I will definitely be coming back for another quesadilla. We also plan to try the chilaquiles con huevos, the tacos de canasta(served only on weekends), and the chorizo sopes. Having eaten a lot of tacos in Austin and in Mexico City, I can say that this place is great for Utah County.
