Brasas is personally my go-to for Mexican food in Utah County. Service is fast and they have a wide variety of food. I've gotten their lengua burrito and the lengua was tender and burrito was huge. I always get the birria plate; it comes with 4 birria tacos + cup of soup on the side, rice, beans, guac, cilantro & onions, lettuce, and cactus (my favorite side on the dish!!). It's just a huge plate of food that's yummy and filling. Don't forget to load up on salsa and other things at the table around the corner from the cash register!
We ordered food here for a big group of 19 people. I called a week in advance to try and see if they could take a reservation for us. They told me to make it 1-2 days in advance. But then the day before someone went over and asked if they could put together tables and make a reservation but they said they don't reservations. But on the day of we decided just to order take out and they took an hour to make the food. They did a great job logistically estimating when the food would be ready and packing everything neatly, labeling them well. However, they forgot to pack enough forks and spoons for both the meals and the salsas. It was also weird that they don't make custom breakfast burritos even though we were asking for items already on the menu that wouldn't have been expensive like eggs. The food overall was just fine - there was a lot of meat and substance in each plate but the smokiness of the meat was kind of a turnoff to many folks. Their nachos were also missing more ingredients like sour cream and salsas for flavor. The food was just okay but I'm not sure I would order for a large group here again.
Taco loco...so good! Really good tacos. Service was great. Surprised the place wasn't packed on Saturday night.
this restaurant was sooo amazing it was clean, fast serviced, and the staff were so friendly . The food was amazingly priced and the portions were large for the price i loved the atmosphere as well the restaurant is so cutely decorated with flowers hanging from the ceiling and cute decor. the food was so tasty and well seasoned as well as the fries were perfectly crispy
Food is affordable and mega-delicious. Every bite of the pastor tacos with guac n pineapple was like a festival and firework show...off the chain! Highly recommend... it's a simple sit-down outside venue. All good, I'm here for the food!! Sorry I ate the before the pics. My bad... that taco, super bad as in super bueno!
Good Mexican street food in Provo UT We had just flew in from Sacramento. First travel out of state after lockdown. We haven't had lunch so we were hungry and had a late dinner here in the city of Provo, where we were staying this Memorial Day weekend. We were not sure if we were able to dine inside the restaurant. The doors were unlocked... we went inside for a dine-in experience. Inside the dining room was empty other than a family of 3. We placed our order at the counter. The employees were friendly. The cook brought our food to our table. Not sure what the COVID-19 guidelines were for the State of Utah but none were wearing masks. They seemed more lax here unlike California. Hubby and I each had a steak burrito. Within a few minutes we were served our food. Whoa, wow... the burritos were huge! Inside were rice, beans, guacamole and pico de gallo... and this was just their regular burrito. They have specialty burritos too. I also had a steak mulita... had to compare from our local Chando's Tacos. So much food for one person. Hubby and I could've shared one order. Anyway, I could only eat 1/3 of my burrito but everything was tasty, meat was tender with flavorful spices... delicious! We enjoyed the dine in experience while traditional northern Norteño Mexican music played in the background. Review #1782
Food was okay but I asked for no onion twice. The guy understood brought me the food smiling knowing it had onion.
What were we waiting for?! We've driven past this parking lot-outdoor eatery dozens of times and after five years in Utah we finally stopped in for lunch. Listen up: I just ate the best burrito I've ever had in my life, period: the Brasas Burrito, with steak, bacon and shrimp--unreal! The meat mix was closely ground and heavenly, wrapped up in a lightly browned flour tortilla, perfect. Their house chips and salsa are the best we've found in the state, fried up fresh on site, paired with a fiery-sweet blendered salsa (not misspelled) that's got just the right kick. We tried other samples from the salsa bar: a tangy mild green salsa, and something orange and wicked with plutonium highlights, too hot for these gringos. We have at long last discovered great Mexican food in the Beehive State!
I loved it here. I felt as if I was transported into an impoverished Hispanic world in a nice town. As I enjoyed my delicious food I couldn't help but notice the beautiful Mexican families I was sitting next to using their HARD EARNED money to enjoying this slice of home in this messed up country. I've never left Provo but this is what I imagine Mexico to feel like. Maybe one day I can take a friend here. ¡Muy Bueno! GOD DAMN I LOVE MEXICO!
I had never been to this restaurant and was a little overwhelmed by all the options on the menu, but the guy at the register was patient and helpful in explaining different options to me! I ended up getting three tacos - al pastor, carnitas, and steak. Al pastor was DELICIOUS and so flavorful, but I was a little bit disappointed by the lack of flavor in the other two. They have a salsa bar that helped that situation, I just wish there had been more flavor in the meat itself. My husband got one of their specialty burritos - I think the Tijuana - and was very happy with it! This location for Brasa is colorful and well decorated!! One downside was that all the tables were a little bit greasy, I wiped ours down with napkins to save my shirt sleeves.
Brasas is located by the closed Dollar Theater in Provo. That location used to be so hot. Now it's a deserted, rather creepy, location especially at night. First impression is that the ambiance is OK. It's comfortable and the interior fits the establishment. There's plenty of 2 seat and 4 seat tables. But when I looked closer, about 40% of the tables were dirty. Service: Walking in, there was no one at the register. There was a person in the kitchen who could see me but there was no acknowledgement. After several minutes of awkwardness, I called out to that person. That person didn't understand me. So, my Spanish speaking friend, spoke out in Spanish. Finally, we were acknowledged and another person came out the back to take our order... The condiment cart has OK sauces. I'm not 100% confident about the freshness. When I inspected the vegetables, it looked old and dry. I get the Aztec Beef Fries every time when I visit Brasas. I've tried to tacos and burritos and they are Okay. If it weren't for these fries, I would not return. In conclusion, Aztec Beef Fries are fantastic, the service is awkward, cleanliness and the condiment cart can use improving.
Yummy place I never knew about until now! I love how they give you your food in a flat aluminum tray. Great aesthetics! Fajitas were delicious. A LOT of food for one person so they make great leftovers :)
Never been to Utah before so was looking around for some Mexican food. Found this place on yelp and figured I'd give it a shot. Let me warn you right now. If you are looking for traditional taco shop carne asada THIS IS NOT IT! This steak they have here is smoked. If you don't like smoky taste on your meat you don't want the steak here. Don't know how the Al Pastor or the chicken were but I'm assuming it's the same. Its not bad by any means I just don't like that smoky taste. Service was Excellent. The cashier was friendly and we got our food quickly. As far as portion size and price? You get a lot for your money!!! You won't leave hungry. Worth a try if your in the provo area.
It had been a little bit since I had been to Brasas and it has been far too long! I forgot how amazing it is! Their Al pastor taco is the best in the county. Their meat is so flavorful, tender, and the pineapple compliments it perfectly. Their birria taco was really tasty too. Their shrimp taco was good but I wish it was grilled shrimp and not fried. They have a great selection of delicious salsas. Their chips and salsa is a nice starter too. Their salsa that comes with it isn't too spicy but has a great authentic taste. The chips are fresh and crispy! The service was excellent and the restaurant was clean. Will definitely be back soon! read more

Had no expectations coming here, but I was really impressed by the portion sizes. My wife and I ordered two items on the menu, the birria tacos and the loaded fries, and we got two big trays of food. The value for the price is awesome. The birria and sides were as good as other places we've gone to without the inflated prices. The only thing we were kind of meh about was the fries themselves (though all the toppings were great), but other than that, I'd say this place is solid and we definitely plan on coming back! Added bonus: They really put a lot of care into the decor. Their hanging flowers were cool to sit under. read more

Would definitely eat here again. Very filling. Chicken quesadilla was a 10/10 and my California burrito was a 7/10. read more
The inside is amazingly decorated. The walls are painted beautifully and the order counter is also amazing. They have a bunch of small lights hanging all over and some roses hanging from the ceiling. It really makes you feel like you're in Mexico. The food is always tasty and good. I like the chicken nachos and the chicken is always great quality. It isn't dry and it's got a decent flavor. The chips and other toppings make the nachos taste even better and if you add the salsas then it becomes perfect. Overall, if you're looking for some above average, loaded nachos for around $12 this place is were to go. Also, they are quick and the staff is always smiling and friendly! read more

One of the better Mexican places I've been to here in Utah. The flavor of my chimichanga was good, and my only complaint is that they deep fried it way too long, making the tortilla basically a big chip. My wife really enjoyed her tacos, and my daughter got a quesadilla, which was one of the biggest quesadillas I've ever seen. I'd definitely eat here again. read more

So good! I had 3 kinds of tacos: carne asada, al pastor, and chorizo. They were all delicious! And they gave me a side of cactus (nopales), which was wonderful. They are located in the parking lot with McDonald's and Kneaders, right in the inside corner. read more

Came in around 9pm on a Saturday night. I was actually a little worried when I went in and it was empty, but the food did not disappoint. The veggie burrito I ordered was phenomenal. Staff was friendly and quick and the restaurant itself was very clean. I would definitely encourage folks to go eat here and try it. So far, one of the better Mexican food joints in Provo that I've tried. read more

Did we eat at the same place as the rest of you? Three stars is generous because an older employee (the manager?) was very helpful and kept the dining area clean. They should label the salsas by hotness and types; provide to-go lids near the utensils station; and HEAT THE FOOD. The cheese wasn't melted on my enchiladas or refried beans so I didn't eat them. The chips were thick and salty. The rice was okay; same with the salad. The guacamole was mass produced instead of homemade. My hubby liked his carnitas and steak plate with fresh, hot corn tortillas. But not enough to eat here again. I didn't see any desserts on their menu board. They have a good variety of fountain and bottled drinks. They have three TVs that were showing college football games on a Friday night. There was plenty of parking. read more
The carne asada fries here are to die for, and the tacos are great too. Not as cheap as some of the other Mexican restaurants in Provo, but worth your time and money. Definitely check this place out when you're coming to Provo--I'll be back soon. read more

Ambience was alright, it seemed a little bit run down, but not too bad. Price isn't terrible, small tacos for $1.30 each and large tacos for $2.25 each. The chicken wasn't that great, really just an average chicken taco. The chorizo on the other hand was awesome. My wife also had a steak taco and really enjoyed that as well. The horchata was delicious. Good customer service and quick (but our group was practically the only ones there). Just 3 stars because of the very average, if not slightly below average, chicken tacos and the restaurant itself. read more

What a great little hole in the wall restaurant! It's a little hidden off of University Parkway, but definitely should not be missed. The tacos are very decently priced. They offer 2 different taco sized. The food came out very quickly. My partner and I both ordered steak tacos, added cheese (which is an extra charge) and a basket of chips. They have a salsa bar that you can chose from for your tacos or chips. The tacos were delicious and really filling! I only wish they would use queso blanco for the cheese. The tortillas were fresh and you could tell they were made in the restaurant. In an area where it's hard to find good authentic Mexican food, this was a REALLY good option!! read more
