This place was soso good! One of the best I've had in Utah. Jarochos is a small joint located in Layton, and upon entering, you are greeted by a sweet lady. We ordered many different items, and the menu offers a lot too. The choriqueso and chips were the perfect appetizer. There was so much queso that I just wished we had a bit more chips. The gordita inflada was something I have not had before, and I really enjoyed it. The tacos were flavorful, and the chicken empanada was tasty and fried perfectly. The only thing I would mention is that the service takes a bit long, but I don't think they have much staff, so plan to wait a bit for your food. However, I will definitely be returning if I'm ever in the area! read more

Excellent food. Reviewers praise it as "authentic Mexican food". I have no experience to know if that is true or not, but the menu choices are quite different than those I've seen in most American nMexican restaurants. I had four enchiladas smothered with mole, and I thought it very tasty, even though the heat level was right at the edge of my liking (I'm a wimp, I'm sure others would rate it as only medium heat). I'll be back to try some of the other dishes. read more

I've been here twice, came back today for a third time. So far everything I've ordered was absolutely delicious. I'm from Los Angeles where some of the best Mexican restaurants reside, I know my stuff. The menudo, empanadas, flautas and everything else I've had has been delicious! Everything was fresh and made to order. Handmade tortillas, delicious salsas I can go on and on. This is quality authentic Mexican food and a must try. 4/5 stars I always come here when I'm In Utah read more

This place is delicious. The Asada Tacos were very flavorful. They were seasoned well and the meat was juicy, not dry. The Pastor Tacos were quite good. I missed the pieces of pineapple in them though. I really enjoyed the Tostada El Pollo. The chicken was delicious. If you get a chance to try the habanero sauce and the Diablo sauce you will enjoy them a lot if you like spicy sauces. The Diablo sauce is definitely picante. - He Said read more

Updated review: just went back and after a 5star review when this place was just getting going I've got to say I'm much disappointed with where its gone. Menu has changed but only in price. They added an option for chips and salsa but you have to pay for them. And the staff has become much less friendly. The food is still really good, but I won't be back anytime soon. To bad, I really want to like this place. On a side note. Watch your final price. I had a ticket for two and was up charged over $5. She doesn't give you an itemized bill just runs a calculator or tells you a price. I know two of us didn't order that much food even after being charged for chips and salsa. I paid it but purely to see if she would be dishonest with me. Unfortunately 5 stars goes to a 1 for dishonest businesses. read more

Absolutely authentic Mexican food. Moving from Southern California, I was going to miss Mexican food, but this IS the spot for it. Carne Asada taco 4.1/5: SUPER flavorful. The flavor isn't one noted and has a citrusy taste to it. Average small size taco Picada 3.6/5: I had the the chipotle one. Perfectly spicy. The masa is made in house and it's great Tamale 3.2/5: Had the verde. Average tamal, nothing special Burrito 5:5/ ENORMOUS and covered in sauce. So freaking good Quesadillas 5/5: Bomb.com with their asada. Size wise it's around 3x a taco bell quesadillas. Comes with 3 different sauces to dip into. Come here for delicious and authentic Mexican food. You will be far from disappointed read more

We showed up for a late lunch on a Monday. They were only taking call in take out orders, so we ordered 8 tacos and sat in the car while they were put together. Tacos were something like $1.75 a piece and while they were very small, they were loaded up! Totally delicious and perfectly prepped. Both salsas were tasty, but neither of them overly impressed us. We definitely plan to go back and try their delicious looking burritos! read more

A hidden gem on Main Street in Layton. It's worth searching for because it's delicious Mexican food made by such kind people. My husband had a quesadilla and tacos, it was a ton of food and he loved it. I had chicken flautas, I get them every time I go because they are so good! My son is a regular there and they make him a special plate that isn't on their menu because it's a favorite of his from when he lived in Mexico. It's called Milanesa and it's basically super thin chicken fried steak. This place is so good AND a bargain. read more

Was very scared of going here just because I have been to a few bad Mexican restaurants and they have really let me down. Glad I came here though. Their tacos, specially the tripas are crunchy, flavorful and delicious. The chips and salsa are a big deal to me and even though they are different, the chips were salty hardier with visible ground corn and the salsa was slightly on the sweeter side making it perfect for their chips. The sopas were also very good. My husband loves them. Just be careful with their spicier sauce. It will burn your face off. Was impressed and am going again today driving al the way from Brigham for this. Definitely recommend. read more

Great food! We stopped in after a hot day at Great Salt Lake and so glad we did. I had a chicken tostada and it was so light and refreshing. The crema was the perfect touch with the chicken, tomato, and avocado. We also had the fried plantains and they were the best I've ever had! They come with refried beans, which was perfect for me, as my tostada was served alone. The plantains were crispy and lightly sweet, an excellent light dessert.

I'm a sucker for a good guacamole...and their guacamole is great! I loved the chili crisp on top (it reminded me of the Foo Fries they had one time). The chips were salted perfectly and had a good crunch to them. The green sauce was so good, and we liked dipping the guac in it to give the guac a little bit of spice. The salsa had great flavor and I saved some for the main course, but ended up taking the salsa home (I'll touch on that later). The main course was their new special called "The G" which consisted of crinkle cut fries, scrambled eggs, basque chorizo, cheese, Inca sauce, onions, and their new Hood sauce all wrapped up in a flour tortilla. I took one glance at that burrito and I knew I was going to love it, and boy was I right! That sauce mixed with the chorizo and crispy fries really took this burrito to a whole new level. Dare I say it's my new favorite? That flavor and the crunch of the fries really made my tastebuds happy....so much so that I didn't want to change a thing by adding the salsa I saved. The side of fries came with a small container of Hood sauce. With each bite, my husband and I could taste a familiar flavor, but we couldn't quite put our finger on it.....and they wouldn't tell us their secret. We understood though because it's good! After a little bit of digesting, they served us some dessert. It was called "Churros Foster" and it consisted of churros, vanilla ice cream, and it was covered with bananas foster. This dessert was to die for! The cinnamon...the vanilla....the banana....I wanted to lick the bowl clean! I wish this was going to be a new addition to the menu, but for now it's not and I understand. I still really enjoy the churros on their dessert menu. Mimosas, delicious food, and good company! This was such a fun experience and we were very grateful to be invited.

When you can't decide....

They were good, no doubt

I've been coming here since 1992…read more. This place has been one of my favorites for years, and for good reason: the food flat-out delivers. The pork tacos are excellent, the buffet is a beautiful exercise in self-control failure, and the three enchilada plate is always a solid choice. Truthfully, it's all really good. What makes it even better is the people. Alex, Javier, and Sadie bring a fun energy that makes the whole place feel alive. Great food is one thing, but when the staff makes the atmosphere this enjoyable, it keeps you coming back. So go hungry, have a beer... or marigita, relax, and enjoy yourself. This place isn't just good - it's the kind of place you keep in your regular rotation for decades.

Me and my dad went for lunch yesterday and it was a great experience. I haven't been here in years,…read morebut it still is great. I had the ground beef chimichanga and it was as good as always. My father had the buffet and he really enjoyed it. I will be returning again soon.
