Navajo Taco - Tres Tapas Sampler
Brent O.

This is such a warm place, with delightful service. Was looking for something unique and we got it. The fry bread, the nachos, the tacos, all amazing. They are definitely not what you may be used to if you're thinking Mexican style, because this is not that. You can go and feel the care put into everything from the service to the food.

Wow! This was my first time having Native American food, and this is an experience I will never forget. Black Sheep Cafe has a fair share of regulars and new customers (from what I could overhear). I made a reservation through Yelp, arrived early and was able to be sat early. I found street parking easily out front on a Wednesday night. The frybread?? So good, I had to have it for appetizer and dessert. Think of a roll that is super light and fluffy, more on the croissant side but not flaky... Not the best description at all so u suggest you try it yourself. The hog jowl tacos were amazing. Hog jowl was described to me as a sweet pork. The meat reminded me so much of bacon; it was delicious and I regret not getting 2 orders. Between the tasty food and good service, this is a place I would visit again when in town.

Traditional Black Sheep Navajo Tacos

This is a nicer restaurant in the Provo area and a great place to come with coworkers or friends & family! The navajo tacos are yummy (I just wish mine was fried a bit more for more crunch!) Overall it was very filling and loaded! The pork jowl nachos were especially yummy! Definitely come here if you're looking for a nice sit-down restaurant. The service was fairly quick and friendly too.

This was a really enjoyable stop. Let's start with the wonderful service by David. He was on task and it was appreciated. The ambiance was clean and simple. The food was good. I had the chumichunga, which was enjoyable. The green chili was Anaheim, so avoided. If it's not Hatch, it's weak.

Red Chili Beef Navajo Tacos

I made reservations to eat at their 11:30 AM opening. We arrived and had a table waiting in the front window. Friendly hostess and waitress. The decor was beautiful and looked to be native. I ordered the Black Sheep Navajo taco and my son ordered the Red Chili Beef Navajo taco. We shared a street corn. My son had the cactus pear lemonade and I had the Navajo iced tea to drink. Everything was delicious and fresh! The dough was soft and tasty. We really enjoyed our meal!

Black sheep martini

Not sure why I was surprised but I was. Pork jowl tacos are unique and top tier. The service was fast per the type of quality of food available. Everything extremely fresh with a lot of activity in the kitchen. The menu isn't vast but everything looks amazing. I also had the frites green chile to start and too much for one person but great appetizer if hungry.

Typically, people don't like to be referred to as the "black sheep," so I would have thought this would extend to restaurants. However, Black Sheep Cafe is as far from the societal reject that this name might insinuate. My sister and I visited to celebrate my birthday and had an exquisite time. The food was terrific-mad props to the Black Sheep Salad with an addition of chicken...yum! We paired it with an order of fry bread, which mostly negated the healthy choices we made with salads. Oh well. I've never had fry bread like it-both sweet and savory at the same time. Sooo good! I also ordered the pear lemonade-it was hot day and I was in the mood for a cool refresher. It was just what I hoped for-beware it's pretty sweet. Consider me part of the flock-I'll be baaaaack.

Southwestern Fried Chicken
Spencer R.

Lavender bread was awesome! I could eat it every day! The filet bruschetta was super good. The mash potatoes at the base snuck up on us, you almost don't notice until you notice them you want more! I got the fried chicken. Super filling and tasty, great crisp on the chicken and the gravy is bomb! The potatoes are nice and cheesy. So good! Overall, I will be back for sure.

Meatloaf
Nicole C.

My dad and I came here after a day hike and wanted to try something downtown. The inside is cute and gives a very family owned feel. The bathrooms are quite far and require a code as the building is in a leases strip mall area of downtown. The place was packed, which is a good sign and we got sat fairly quickly. They have a student of Chihuly's glass as art, which is a great addition for Seattle folks like us! We had wonderful service and our table looked out over the street. For dinner I had the meatloaf special in a yummy sweet vinegar type sauce. The meatloaf was flakey with carrot, which I thought was super yummy and the portion was huge. I also really enjoyed the vegetable medley because it had edamame. It was super good in the sauce. My dad had a salad with chicken. The salad was HUGE and they gave a generous portion of chicken. I also had a glass of their prickly pear lemonade with vodka that was refreshing with their local vodka. Highly recommend and would def come back on my next visit!!

Green Chile stew and fry bread
Stephanie S.

Great food and excellent, friendly service. A friend of ours recommended this cafe to us, after looking at their menu online I couldn't wait to check it out. I was torn between the green chile stew and the pozole. The server said both were great but the stew had more veggies, I ordered the green chile stew with a side of fry bread & honey- it was very yummy! Would order again. Hubby got the hanger steak, said it was tasty and he would order again. I also ordered the prickly cactus marg- it was different and tasty. Quaint place, we went for dinner, we were seated right away and didn't have to wait long at all for our food. Can't wait to return.

Heard good things about this place! We had reservations on a Friday evening, but they put us in the corner table right next to the entrance, hot lights are directly shining on your face - super hot area and their A/C was not working either so the temperature inside the restaurant was uncomfortable. Appetizers were probably BETTER than their actual entrees. Do NOT get the hanger steak , it had some balsamic/sweet glaze on it (which does go well with a steak in general in my opinion) and the steak was overdone; it tasted like a 2 day old pot roast. Waitress was accommodating and offered to get it redone or get me something else, which I opted for the wedge salad . Wedge salad's dressing tasted like fry sauce , which was also strange! We would only probably come back for the appetizers next time.

We were there for a BYU game and the food was pretty tasty, however the service was very slow. I will say they were extremely busy so I'm not sure what it's like in a regular day. We had the filet mignon bruschetta and green chili stew. So good! The ambiance was nice and we loved that this is Native American inspired food. Something different!

One thing I did appreciate about this place is the amount of meat you get on your taco. They are not stingy at all! Carnitas tacos for me were okay. I wanted to love it but it was a little dry and bland. When I added sauces it tasted a little better. I'd say like a 2.5/5 Gringas pastor- 4/5 I wished there was more pineapple I felt like it paired well with the meat. For there being cheese on top I expected it to be a little crispy but it wasn't. I still thought it was good. Gringas asada- 5/5 the asada meat was good Birria tacos with consume- 3/5- I felt like the Birria was a little bland and needed more salt. Still enjoyed it but didn't hit the spot. I did however wish I tried this dish as the QUESO BIRRIA- which there being cheese on it I think makes the taco a little more solid. So maybe I'll try that next time. Esquites - 5/5 it was delicious. All the sauces they had though were delicious so anything you paired it with tasted a little better. Overall this place I liked. They have such a variety in their menu that I wouldn't mind coming back if I'm in the area and trying other things out. Staff were really great and friendly. The ambiance there is super cute and mellow.

I also ordered the Jamaica which was flavorful and just the right amount of sweet. The place was dead when I walked in and no one else came or went by the time my to go order was ready. The guy at the counter wasn't very engaged and not helpful when I asked for suggestions or what was popular. Service could have been friendlier, but not enough of an issue that I wouldn't return again when in the area.

You can order by phone as well. They have pozole and menudo as well if you're interested in some authentic Mexican soup. They have a small salsa bar so you can get whatever kind you want. As of 05/2020 they do not have a website. A scammer set up a fake one that takes your money, but your order and money does not go to the restaurant. One of my favorite places I've recently found in Provo. Los mejores sopes que he probado en Provo. Las carnitas y asada tienen muy buen sabor. Su horario ha sido un poco esporádico a causa de las nuevas reglas del coronavirus. Últimamente, yo les he marcado para averiguar si están abiertos o no. Se puede hacer la orden por teléfono también. Tienen pozole y menudo por si les interesa. También tienen un bar de salsas para que puedan escoger el tipo que deseen. A partir del 05/2020 no tienen un sitio web. Un estafador creó una página falsa que toma su dinero, pero su pedido y dinero no van al restaurante. Sin duda es uno de mis restaurantes favoritos que yo recién he encontrado en Provo.
