My go to is the gluten free enchilada Suiza with the cheese melted over the side of refried beans. It's amazing every time. One thing I really appreciate is how long the staff stays. It says a lot about the restaurant. Nacho has been there forever and is genuinely one of the kindest people. Jasmine is always warm and attentive, and Jorge is so friendly and will happily hype up the guacamole any chance he gets. The space has a comfortable open layout. It's usually not too loud, although like any busy spot it can pick up during rush times. The decorations are fun with traditional Mexican dresses, sombreros and their year round Christmas tree that changes with the seasons.

Some dishes are flavorful, but others feel a little bland or inconsistent. Portions are good, and the atmosphere is casual and comfortable for a quick meal.

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.

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.

Still great service and chips with salsa!

I was pleasantly surprised by the decor inside, they have spent a great deal for this location. I ordered chips and salsa to start. These were not complimentary but when they arrived the salsa was fresh and unique. I was glad I ordered them. My wife chose the carne asada burrito. She raved about the flavor and could only finish half. I ordered a unique taco which had an authentic name this gringo cannot remember but it was built on a house made corn tortilla about twenty inches long and ten inches wide. Steak, Mexican cream, tomatillo sauce, freshly shredded lettuce and cheese. I've never had anything like it but it is awesome. The service was quick and efficient. Very delightful people. The check had included a 15% Service Charge so I was glad to see the options on the screen to add a tip began at a level that matched up with the service charge at a reasonable level. I only had one complaint, The music was a little loud. The sound system is great and I loved the authentic music but the baseline was pumping loud enough to hurt my ears. I'd recommend adjusting the volume or the mix to make it a little more comfortable. Overall I loved this experience and will definitely want to come again. No pictures, sorry.

This is my third review of Los Cucos (...going back 10 years to my first one in 2015), and is…read morelikely my last review. For date night last night, my wife and I patronized Los Cucos here in Sandy, as it had been at least four years since we last ate at this restaurant. We were seated immediately, but it was almost as if we were in a different restaurant from what we remembered from our past visits. Last night it was bright, stark, noisy, and felt like a sports bar with all the many flat-screen TVs on the wall. They even had a huge speaker system hanging from the ceiling, set up, no doubt for large parties? Not what we expected for a well-patronized Mexican (Tex-Mex?) restaurant in Sandy. Rosa was our server and did a nice job taking care of us, but it really went downhill from there. The menu was impressive, I'll give them that...but so were the prices (and not in a good way.) My wife ordered Las Sebas (a mini smothered chimichanga with chile verde and two fried taquitos, served with rice and guacamole), and I went with my fave, Carnitas (chunks of slow-cooked pork loin served with tomatillo sauce, sour cream, fresh sliced avocado, onions, pico de gallo, rice, "borracho" beans, and tortillas.) Sounds de-lish, right? Keep reading. I also has a large Margarita ($12.25 + rocks & salt)...and we both enjoyed the chips and salsa...with a warm red salsa and a cool avocado salsa. Then the robot appeared. Yes, of all places, they use a robot to deliver the food to our table...but it still required a server to pull the plates off the robot and put them in front of us. A robot? Really? Our delivery robot stopped just shy of our table right there in the middle of the aisle, and it sat there...for 3-4 minutes waiting for staff. That was 3-4 minutes of our food cooling off even further, not to mention the time it took in the kitchen to load it and the time it took to crawl halfway across the restaurant to our table. Gimmick. I'll speak to my food as it had a nice presentation, but after digging in, it was lacking in many respects. The carnitas were chunky and moist, but damn those big fat globs that were hidden under the meat. Yuck. Honestly, I get much better carnitas locally from Gual Bertos and La Hacienda here in Draper. And the tortillas? Worthless. They were just dry, flaky, cold, and crumbled as I tried to roll them. I had one bite of one. A total waste. The rest of my plate was OK, especially the "borracho beans". The rest was OK but there wasn't a lot of it...and a fair amount (pico de gallo and the lettuce) was hidden under the two flat pieces of lettuce that the kitchen used to decorate my plate. All in all, it didn't seem worth the $21.00 I paid for my entree. I also took about 1/3 of my meal home in a hinged lid container. The whole experience could have been way better. The ambiance was terrible, the food was OK, service was good (but seemed rushed as Rosa brought us our check halfway through our meal and then immediately asked us if we wanted containers for take-home...what?), and the cost (the two entrees, a Sprite, and a large margarita) was $69.63 out the door with gratuity. Hmmmm. No value there. As I said earlier, it really could have been better. A lot better. And just how did this venue get voted "Best in SLC" for a Mexican Restaurant? 2 Stars, and we're never coming back.

My stomach didn't appreciate the next 2 hours of my life, but that may be more due to trying to finish the dish than anything they did wrong. I wouldn't recommend eating here and then going to the batting cages right after, but again that is a poor life decision and nothing to do with the restaurant.

Our server was really friendly but not super attentive since it was so busy. Still, it would be unfair to say that the service was bad, but the kitchen/BOH really pulled down the experience. My order came with ribeye steak chilaquiles, refried beans, a sweet corn tamal, and a side of French toast. The ribeye was lean and thin which tasted more like just regular carne asada minus the lime, so probably wouldn't pay the premium for that next time. The chilaquiles were outstanding and my favorite part of the dish were the beans: creamy, smoky, tangy. They paired really well with the sweet tamal-- a total ratatouille moment! Also had a mango mimosa and my wife ordered a cold pistachio latte and it was heaven. I'm definitely returning in a couple months to see if there's any improvement and will update.

Tiny! Parking is a joke! There is maybe 6-7 parking spaces on the east side. Maybe 2-3 at the back of the building, which is one way. It limits the ability to drive around the back of the building. There are two parking spaces on the west side of the building. I have seen cars get totally stuck, people yelling and getting upset. If you have a large vehicle, I would not even try to drive around the building. I would drive south of the restaurant and park at the whitmore library's parking lot, and walk over. Service is okay. Ordering is cramped, and if there's a line you're standing at the back of the restaurant right next to people sitting eating. It's uncomfortable. During the summer there is seating inside and outside, but during high times you have to wait for a table! During the winter there are 12 tables, most of which are room for 2 people, four tables for 4 people, 5 if you can fit. This restaurant is SO popular, they really need to move to a larger building! One with plenty of parking and more seating. I love their food so much I would go once a week if there was more seating and parking, otherwise it's just too stressful!

This was pretty disappointing and we wished we had picked a different restaurant for lunch.
