This place was good. There were warm, fresh chips with yummy salsa. We got the Avocado egg rolls are good to start with and the mango salsa really takes it to amazing. We also got the chicken chimichanga and smothered it with that tasty mango salsa! Whateve

A buddy and I wanted mexican food so we thought we would try this place out and ended up being very disapointed! It took awhile for someone to greet us, took 5 to 10 minutes for our drinks to get to our table and then there was maybe 10 to 15 chips for chips and salsa and the salas was gone just like that after 15 chips max. I got a chicken and a ground beef enchaldias not much flavor, I ended up just adding some hot sause to get some flavor. The Burritto my friend had was huge but once again he said there was no flavor and it was the worst burritto he had ever had. It was a little expensive for what you get.

I'd give it no star but I can't. It was late, we were hungry, and we still had another few hours to get home. To sum it up, the food is bland and does not taste fresh. It IS edible :-) and the staff was friendly. Note to self: trust your fellow yelpers when you see a 1 star and more than 1 review... You've been warned.

It's screaming goodness

This place must be vindicated! It feels a little odd giving a 5-star review to an establishment that only has two 1-star ratings, but I'm telling you, this place has the best fried ice-cream that I've ever eaten in my entire life! I am originally from Utah and have eaten here a few times over the past several years. Their Mexican food is pretty solid. I don't think it was bland like others have complained about. It wasn't the best Mexican food ever, but it was fresh and hit the spot, especially after a long drive. I recommend to any person who travels through Beaver Utah, you must stop here and try the fried ice cream! It's a giant scoop of ice cream with a fried, crispy glaze of either chocolate, caramel, or honey. It sits in a warm, crispy, sugar coated tortilla and served with whip-cream and a cherry. AMAZING. During a road-trip from California to Utah I would seriously drive an extra 3 hours to go through Beaver just to pick up dessert.

Overall- solid restaurant. Good quality food and a clean space. We took a chance on this restaurant since we were tired of "roadtrip food". While initially skeptical (early and limited reviews) the food was good. Steak quality was good, the guacamole and rice were legit. Food was not super salty which was a plus. Flavors are a mix of central and coastal (Yucatan) Mexico...not spicy, more on the tangy (chile verde enchiladas) or sweet side (fajitas). Recommend the "Asada signature dish" and the "fajitas". Price was about $13-$15 for each of those dishes. Some of the dishes seemed a little overpriced (burrito about $11-12). We were at 3.5 stars of 5 but since we can't go with half numbers...giving them a 4 since some of the really early reviews are not representative.

My overall experience at this restaurant was by far one of the worst I've ever experienced in my life. Coming to Kan Kun has pushed me to write my very first review. After sitting down initially, the waitress took our drink orders of which we ordered a round of waters and a root beer. She than casually mentioned that they had no running water and that they would be charging us for bottled waters which seemed odd to us b/c most establishments would provide free water no matter what the circumstances. We placed our orders and she brought out my nachos but hadn't brought my root beer ..... we waited and waited for her to come back but after waiting, we went to kitchen to locate her of which she than finally brought me my root beer and told me she forgot. How could you forget a basic order of all waters and a root beer?? That was strike one, than my 2 year old niece had to go to the bathroom and they didn't have a working bathroom. My sister had to take her daughter outside to potty in the parking lot, strike two. The nachos I ordered were drenched in toppings and were not good, strike three. We than requested to talk to the manager and he/she refused to come out to talk to us, the final strike!! Unbelievable, no ownership what's so ever. My food cost $20sh dollars and the whole drink order 5 waters plus a root beer totaled $17.95 ..... ridiculous!!! It's not even about the money!!! It's how they handled everything!!! Horrible strongly recommend that you do NOT GO HERE to eat!!!!

Pollo del Diablo. It's with shrimp on the menu but my other half prefers chicken--it's fabulous either way! Spicy!!!

So the first ever review i had ever made for this place was a not so good one, they've since gotten…read morerid of that girl with the attitude. So periodt on that! LoL Now? MY GOD the new crew is absolutely amazing! Especially the afternoon crew. There's this girl with i think braces and glasses; ABSOLUTE angel and because of her service I'm always tipping. She's like the Valerie's soul of the restaurant. I kid you not. She knows all her regulars order and is always serving with a smile. Also when she's working with whom I assume is her regular staff, you can always count on the condiment tables to be stocked, til it gets around the evening time. The ambiance of the restaurant is pretty simple, nothing to extravagant, but it is welcoming nonetheless. The food? I mainly come here for the Menudo (the girl who I was just talking about will immediately know who I am LoL) but yes, the menudo. My homegirl told me about menudo, and now Valerie's is my plug for that. It's flavored to my liking, which I deeply appreciate. Do understand that sometimes you may get more bones and cartilage than the cow honeycomb tripe. So ask if you could not get that bones and stuff? I haven't, but I don't think it'll hurt to ask. I like the crew that makes my menudo, so I accept it no matter what I get. If you are drunk off your behind, then baby, come on down to Valerie's for some pretty okay food. I'm not a huge fan of tacos and such, but they're menudo is *chefs kiss* in my opinion. So I can only give my opinion on that. As well as the service. Don't forget to tip them! If a cashier remembers my order off the bat, that means 1, I'm a big back, 2, they are that versed in knowing what I want, and 3, I'm a big back. K bye!

A Must-Stop on I-15! Do yourself a favor and stop at Arshel's Loaded Burgers in Beaver!…read more We ordered the mushroom Swiss burger and the bacon cheeseburger, and both were absolutely outstanding. The beef patties were juicy, perfectly cooked, and packed with flavor. You can tell they use quality ingredients and take pride in what they serve. The French fries deserve their own shout-out. They're made from real potatoes, skins and all, and cooked to crispy, golden perfection. They were the perfect complement to the burgers. The staff was incredibly courteous, friendly, and helpful, making us feel genuinely welcome from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere captures Utah at its best--comfortable, unpretentious, and with just the right touch of country charm. It's easy to see why this place has such a loyal following. Whether you're a local or just traveling through Beaver, Arshel's is absolutely worth the stop. We'll definitely be back!

I got a cheese burger. Really fresh. It was really delicious! The patty was not over or overdone…read moreand the pepper jack was melted perfectly melted (and surprisingly didn't get weird when it cooled off). My husband got the Moab with a side salad. Fries (shown with cheeseburger) didn't photograph well but they are made in house and SO GOOD!!! The peanut butter chocolate pie was not as heavy as it sounds. Sweet enough to scratch the itch, but it's a large size - perfect for sharing The staff is so friendly Plenty of parking Super Clean! Highly recommend

A True Taste of Classic Americana!…read more Just off I-15 at Exit 109 in Beaver, Timberline is an absolute gem! Old-school American décor, genuine country charm, and the kind of heartfelt hospitality that makes you feel right at home. A special shout-out to Chelsea, our wonderful waitress, whose warmth, welcoming smile, and exceptional hospitality made the experience even more memorable. She truly embodies the spirit of classic American service! The food? Simply outstanding! Freshly baked bread, country-fresh ingredients, and flavors that speak for themselves. We enjoyed two incredible club sandwiches--one on wheat, the other on focaccia--with perfectly crispy bacon, beautifully grilled chicken, and just the right touch of mayo. The Monte Cristo with bacon was equally spectacular! All three of us savored every bite. We even left with some locally mined Redmond salt! No gimmicks, no fuss--just honest, delicious American cooking served with heart. Timberline isn't just a roadside stop; it's a reminder of what great American hospitality is all about. Great food brings you in. People like Chelsea make you want to come back!

Super friendly service and great portions of good food…read more I like a good liver and onion dish and they are harder and harder to find. This one I had here was in my top five! Great portions and my wife's friendship was also very good.

I had sizzling chicken fajitas with a special request of habaneros cooked into the chicken. It came out on a sizzling cast iron plate that kept it hot for the duration of the meal.

The restaurant is decorated with authentic Mexican decor and music. Don't miss this place if you are craving fresh Mexican food in Cedar City.

Gaslighting over scrambled eggs was definitely not expected. About five minutes later, she brought out scrambled eggs on the side, which pretty much confirmed they hadn't been in the machaca in the first place. The rice was mushy, the machaca itself was basically mush, and there was so little meat we could barely find it. I was with a coworker, and she couldn't believe the waitress was seriously telling us there were eggs in a dish that clearly had none. Very disappointing food, and the way it was handled made the whole experience even worse.
