Some of the best tacos I've had in a long time! We stopped in here while on a work trip and I was pleasantly surprised. We were there on a Tuesday around 6pm and we were seated quickly and service was fast and friendly. It is a tight space, but we got lucky without a wait! The guac was good, chips were delicious, and tacos were incredible. While they don't serve alcohol, they do have very authentic Mexican food with great service. Highly recommend coming here! Breakfast menu looked so good too so I'll have to come back sometime to try more things on the menu. read more

Update - I'm staying with 5 stars, but my review has changed. Since we last went they've added a new menu item. Cheesy pastor tacos. These are 100% 5/5 tacos. Last time we were able to have cheesy pastor tacos this good was at El Fogón in Playa del Carmen. The birria tacos this time were not nearly as good. The consume was just alright and the beef was a bit dry. We were pretty disappointed with them and would definitely just come back for the cheesy pastor tacos. Still great service and chips with salsa! read more

The only thing missing was a margarita! Is that a thing Utah?! Great flavorful food. Birria was tender and well seasoned. Chips seemed homemade. Guacamole was tasty but $14.99 is steep. The lemonades and horchata were surprisingly good! The ginger was my favorite. Service was friendly. Dining space is pretty small. At 7:30 our party of 6 had to wait about 20 minutes. read more

Amazing tacos!!!! I had the al pastor, birria, and carne asada tacos. They were all my favorite. I enjoyed each bite. The condiments with the tacos pair perfectly. The guacamole is so delicious! All three salsas were so good! I can't wait to come back to try more things, but I may end up ordering the same thing since it was so good. The service was not the best. Our waiter was not the most attentive. If you're in a rush, this probably isn't the best place for a fast lunch. The restaurant is very small, so you may need to wait for a table/booth. read more

The birria is muy excellente!!! The beef is tender. The consommé supplements without being intrusive. I just love the texture of the crispy cheese. The habanero lemonade was fun to drink. It had a nice kick that got me at the back of my throat. Delicious. Everything I try here is so good! 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs! read more

First time eating here, Best Birria Tacos ever! A little pricey but the quality of food was excellent

It was good but I'm not sure it was worth being packed in like a sardine. It was very loud and I kept bumping the neighbor's table.

In town from the bay area and decided to give Utah tacos a try. I must say being from where we live and having some of the best tacos to choose from.. these tacos were probably in our top 3 of best ever tacos we have had! The carne asada and pastor were flavorful and delicious! The homemade chips were also a must try!! I would come back to Utah just for these tacos!!!! read more

This place is dope, little hole in the wall. It's a sit down, casual Mexican place with your usual suspects, but the tacos are what they're known for. I had the chorizo and al pastor tacos, and they were excellent. The tortillas are made in house, and chorizo wasn't greasy, the al pastor was amazing. You have to get that. The horchata was ok. A little thin. read more

Did not expect to love this place as much as I did! The restaurant is small on the inside but actually has plenty of tables/booths to sit at. Our waiter was great! He continued to check in on how we were doing and kept our waters filled. Very friendly too :) The food is incredible. We ordered the asada cheesy tacos and the Birria cheesy tacos. Absolutely amazing! Lots of flavor and cooked to perfection. Can't wait to try more things on the menu! read more

Del Barrio Cafe - Birria Taco and Carne Asada Taco - Mexican Near Me - Midvale, Utah

Aye carumba! LOVE LOVE LOVE this place! Found it about a year ago and have had them cater a party too. Tres tacos today - pastor con pineapple, chicken ticka and a chorizo. Love the way they from them on the grill to get them extra hot and cheesy from the outside in. As simple as it sounds, their chips are the best around. They could be a meal unto themselves! Servers are always working hard. Food comes out fast. I love State Street places like this. read more

Del Barrio Cafe - Taco Pastor con pineapple - Mexican Near Me - Midvale, Utah

I love this place! I've been coming here for the past few years and continue to come back. The Birria Tacos are to die for here. It's locally owned! I'm still gonna give it a five star review but my only complaint is when you're sitting at the tables not the booths I feel like they jampacked people in there. Wish there was a little more space and I didn't feel like I was hearing everyone else's conversation. read more

I was skeptical about the quality of Mex cuisine here but the birria tacos and chips and salsa were great. We really enjoyed our first visit while visiting SLC. It was a recommendation from a local friend. The place was full when we arrived but we were seated and served promptly. The service was really friendly and personable. Overall highly recommend. read more

So glad we ran into this little hole in the wall. Not much to expect from the outside but once you get in, there are plentiful delicious options. We tried the barria tacos (look like taco version of a French dip) and the cheesy pastor. Both were good but the cheesy might be a bit better. Want to come back and try the other dishes!!! read more

Holy smokes. This place rocks. I've been several times and am never disappointed. Hands down best fish tacos in Utah. The breading is so flavorful yet light and I love all the toppings. I also always get their rice and beans. So yum, and the chips and salsa are to die! read more

delicious food, great service. The restaurant is much cozier and nicer inside than the exterior would have you think. We had a booth close to the back door and bathroom, which wasn't an ideal location. But the amazing food made up for it. The guacamole was perfectly seasoned. Nothing worse than bland guacamole. Thick fresh chips. amazing salsas. I got a burrito, my husband got a veggie tostada, both were delicious. My son got the birria tacos and it was enough food for two people! read more

This is one of those hole in the wall gems. I wish it had more seating but that seems to add to the rarefied feeling of it. Fantastic food, especially their famous tacos. Food came quick, service was great. read more

Finally one of our recent stops at a SLC establishment paid off and really impressed us. Our entire group loved this place! The restaurant is pretty small, but inside it's warm and comfortable, with good service and delicious, home-cooked and authentic Mexican food. But it's the tacos here that really blew our minds. Cheesy asada was the best we tried, with some serious flavor, thick with beef and ooey gooey cheese. The asada was cooked perfectly, juicy and so tender. The provided guacamole with it on the side was the perfect addition. It was one of the best tacos I've had in recent memory. The cheesy al pastor was also very good, with tender chunks of pork, a pretty tasty marinade, and full of pineapple chunks. The (quesa) birria wasn't bad either, meat a little bit too tough, but flavor was very good. I'd suggest paying $2 more and getting consommé to dip in for any of their a la carte quesa tacos. And their salsas, red and green, were yummy on top. Tortilla chips with salsa before our meal were thick, seasoned, and complimentary, salsa just pretty good (thin). It can get busy here and the parking in back kinda sucks. But it's worth the wait. Our server said afterward that the cheesy shrimp tacos are the best thing here, so we have something to look forward to on our next visit. read more

Top notch Mexican. Not typical; not standard. In a town full of Mexican restaurants, there was a reason why, on a Tuesday night at 8pm, it was bustling. Also vegetarian friendly, which many (or most?) other Mexican restaurants in vicinity are not. Everyone in my party gave the place high marks. read more

Incredible food and drinks. I especially loved the mushroom tacos and the lemonades. Clean inside and prices felt fair. Will be going back often!! read more

Don't let the outside fool you. Although it looks sketchy on the outside the inside has a nice little charm to it. The service was very kind and accommodating, although there was a little bit of a language barrier -- NBD. We got a lot of food and it was all delicious. I especially liked their chicken cheesy tacos. I was worried there wouldn't be enough to fill me so I got two plates, and only ended up eating three and taking the other three to go home. Their salsa was yummy and their chips were made fresh. A little too thick in my opinion but the flavor was there! Very very yummy! Mojito lemonade was delish as well! read more

We checked out a lot of reviews before visiting Del Barrio Cafe, and they all were very positive, for the most part. So I was excited! Parking is kind of weird, and it's hard to get in and out of the place, so be prepared for that. The place is definitely on the smaller side, and it had a lot of people when we got there, so we had to wait about 45 minutes, which is fine - just means it's popular! We tried the Birria and El Pastor tacos, and the flavor was good, I will say that, but they were so greasy. I just didn't realize how everything was basically going to be double deep-fried - very, very greasy food. That said, it did taste good. The amount we got for the price was ok, but I wouldn't say great. The waiters were really friendly, though, and they kept our drinks refilled. I had to knock off a couple stars, because I felt like I might have a coronary after leaving this place. And I was so surprised that other reviewers didn't mention this aspect at all. So anyway, be prepared for some very greasy food, and a long walk afterward to burn it all off. Or if you don't care about what you put in your body, by all means, indulge!! read more

The parking lot is a nightmare and if you go at the wrong time you might end up waiting for a while. That said, worth. it. Del Barrio hits all my favorite things. Chips are thick, which is my favorite. I will argue the birria is the best in the valley. Maybe your mom makes better but I don't have an invite to her house, so Del Barrio gets the win. Flan is so good, I almost always get a slice to go. And the bathrooms are always clean. read more

This is my go to once a week..trusted for good food, every time! Carlos and Shari and staff always go above and beyond with great customer care.. read more

Friends, I could WALK here and am so sad that it took me so long to try it out. If you haven't been, go ASAP. I'll say, it's going to be a rare treat occasion because this spot is not cheap. But it was SO yummy. We came as a family of three for a random lunch one Friday afternoon. It is small with limited seating, but we were seated right away. Parking is easy to miss, so be sure you're watching the signs. Thinking about my mangonada lemonade is making my mouth water. The cheesy shrimp tacos were incredible. Our service was really good. I just don't have anything bad to say other than it's a little pricy. It's worth the price. Just not something we can swing on a casual day like I'd like to. read more

Del Barrio Cafe was incredible delicious. I got the Cheesy Asada Tacos and loved them. It comes with three tacos. They are expensive but yummy. This is a sit down restaurant with a server. They provided complimentary chips and salsa. I felt the chips were too thick and hard and the salsa was like soup. They have very limited parking available so be prepared to park far away and walk. read more

Don't let the inside being small fool you. Went there for a birthday dinner and it was amazing. I did three separate tacos because I couldn't decide and they were so unique I couldn't pick just one as a favorite. The service was great as well. I will be going back soon. read more

Food was ok. Beans/rice cold. Service was very nice. This is a small, cozy place. It is a noisy place especially if you sit close to the drink station and it sounded like a blender or something was making a grinding sound throughout lunch. Not a repeat for us. read more

From the outside, Del Barrio may not look like much-and if your GPS is like mine, it will take you to the neighboring car lot and leave you there-but once you find the right place, prepare for some tasty tacos. As others have said, this is a small joint-I've had more people at one time in my house for Thanksgiving dinner than I think could fit here-so come at non prime time for quicker seating. It's cool to be so close to the action, but for some it might be a little overwhelming. I enjoyed an order of Yucatan Pork tacos and they were fabulous. I especially appreciate that they are not smothered in different toppings-everything is on the side, so for plainists like myself, we can enjoy the pure taco without any distractions. Because the place is so small and table space is precious, I did feel a little rushed to leave after finishing my meal. My dining partner and I were enjoying conversation, but felt bad taking a table, so we left before we might have been ready to. So don't plan on this being a place that you linger longer. Eat and get out! :-) read more

This place is off the charts for great Mexican food. The fish tacos are so tasty as are the beef tacos and the mole they make. Prices are spot on. read more

Cute little restaurant. It's cozy inside, but plenty of seats. The service was great, and the food was delicious! We ordered the Cheesy Pastor tacos and the Birria Tacos and both were amazing. Different flavors, but we couldn't decide which we liked better and that's a huge compliment in itself. The meat was flavorful, the taco shells were fresh, and salsa was mild but added the perfect touch. We will definitely be back and recommending this place to friends & family! read more

Service here is the star here. I don't think I have ever experienced this level of service at a Mexican restaurant. I got the Birria tacos and the flavor didn't disappoint. I hope I can return to try some of their other tacos. The service alone makes this a destination! read more

Another great experience today, just here to remind myself about menu items and share how I felt with anyone contemplating what to order- I was there on a date and dude wanted me to share the pork chile verde chorizo dip... and I was shocked that I liked it! Not spicy. Tasted like bean dip. I even liked the chorizo! Pretty cool. We also shared the birria tacos and the cheesy al pastor tacos. I liked both but liked the birria more. I still think the nachos are my fave thing of all though. Also, it was PACKED at 12 on Thursday. We had to wait 20 min for a table and I had to park across the street. Totally worth it though. read more

I haven't been this impressed by a place in awhile! We stopped in here on our way to the airport. It obviously had wonderful reviews, but I still wasn't entirely sure what to expect. It's a small place that probably doesn't seat more than about 50 but it was packed on a Monday for lunch! I ordered a single Carne Asada taco, Chicken Tinga taco and Birria taco. They were mouth watering. I honestly could've eaten another 3 without hesitating. The chips and salsa were delicious, as were the rice and beans we split. My boyfriend got the Carne Asada burrito and he loved his meal as well. The service was stellar and I would 100% come back here again. read more

I had just flown in from San Diego for work and was starving. Born and raised on the best Mexican food and have toured Tijuana's taco scene more than once. Don't tell anybody from CA I said this... but these tacos and enchiladas were the best I've ever had. I had one shrimp taco, one tinga, and several bites of the green enchiladas. They were so fresh and you could really taste all the flavors and textures. The cheesy tortillas really made the tacos outstanding. Our server was awesome and recommended some of the best options. I loved the small cozy atmosphere. Parking looks like it could be tough but luckily we got a spot! read more

The guacamole and salsa appetizer comes out with fresh chips. I love that they have electronic menu where you scan a QR code on your phone. User friendly. It's a small place that gets busy. I went there on a Monday for lunch and it was full. read more
