In an expected space just off of Freedom Boulevard is some authentic Guadalajara eats. The building is understated but the interior is bright and cheerful. For starters, the rice and beens, which are often a throw away part of the meal, were amazing. We were loving the tacos dorados, crunchy and super yummy (the wife). The asada burrito was really good with flavorful meat, healthy cheese pull, and tasty tortilla (right up there with our burrito lover's favorites). Liked the chicken enchiladas, queso birria, and relleno. But again, the rice and beans are and worth ordering if they don't come with your entree. The staff were cheerful and helpful. Even the other diners were helpful, pointing out their favorites (and we were the only gringos in the entire place). So go. Thanks, Mi Lindo Guadalajara! read more

Food was super rich and had some deep powerful flavors. They were so kind in explaining stuff. I don't know if they spoke any English because we just spoke in Spanish but it was fun! The shop is a bit worn down and some of the seats are a bit uncomfortable but I absolutely loved it. Very authentic. read more

Back in college my best friends and I would come to this place every single Monday. The food is that good! We were all back in town for Christmas break and decided to eat here for old times sake. It's still just as delicious! The carne asada tacos are very flavorful with that perfect amount of crispy-ness. Same with the Pastor tacos. The add ons are always very fresh. The service is consistently so kind. When we graduated they actually gave us all Mi Lindo swag which was very fun. The vibe of the restaurant is great and it's fun to be able to see them cook your food. Provo/Utah is known for its tacos/Mexican food and this is seriously the best I've had. Every time I come into town I eat here at least once! read more

Only place in Utah where you can find authentic Guadalajaran meals - birria (the OG's), torta ahogada and best of all, CARNE EN SU JUGO! Mind you, they only serve carne and en su jugo at their lindon and mapleton locations. read more

Food- I could speak for the chicken tacos dorados, Molcajetes, carne asada quesadillas, carne asada tortas. All these are a must try. Service- is great. Not much to rate there bcz you pre pay as soon as you order. So no waitresses. You have to get your own utensils and salsas. Ambiance- ok.... It's not a fancy place. You got to look at it like a bomb taco stand. You have a few tables and chairs and you are there for the food. Don't come here if you want fancy. It's not fancy. But they do make a as Molcajete. And they have a big room in the back for larger groups. Tip- don't order the carnitas burrito. It good at all.... Tip- restrooms are a mile away. Be prepared to walk. read more

My mom was having concrete poured at her house a few months back and the crew picked up lunch. It looked delicious so we went out and asked them where it was from and this was the spot! Many of that crew moved to the US from Mexico and said it's the best Mexican food in Utah. I've been twice now and it did not disappoint. The food is flavorful and the prices are reasonable. Loved their spicy refried beans and tacos! read more

Foos ia real Mexican Food! I eat there at least once every 10 days Its a family run restaurant, and has great birria, my favorite. This place is fantastic. I haven't been disappointed with any menu items. You can expect the same great food at all locations. I have tried them all read more

Literally cannot stop eating here! Got chicken enchiladas and a cheese quesadilla. Loved it so much I order it again immediately after I finished. Can't recommend this place enough read more

Literally my first restaurant review - the food is fantastic. Not your typical Tex Mex style. Great salsa/condiments bar too.

Delicious, authentic Mexican food. Family-run environment and the most delicious grilled chicken tacos! The rice was also a highlight, but I loved everything I ordered. Coming back to try the enchiladas and fajitas! read more

Disappointing fajitas. The steak was overcooked and tough and lacked peppers and onions. The salsa bar was out of cilantro and limes. The positive was fresh corn tortillas. read more

Authentic food, authentic people. A blessing to Provo. Thank you Mi Lindo and the employees that make it great.

Great authentic food. The salsa bar has amazing options. There is a cash price that is significantly cheaper than using a card. The horchata was delicious. read more

A1 since day 1. I like the food over here. The tortas and huarache is hella good. I could eat like 15 tacos.

So good. We took a chance on this place, just passing by. Best quesadilla I've ever had and the chips are my husband got the green enchilada per the cashiers suggestion and it was delicious. read more

We stumbled across this restaurant looking for chilaquiles on our drive from SLC home. It has become a must stop for us every time we are passing through. Try the chilaquiles verdes. You will not be disappointed! read more

If you have problems speaking bilingual. Be prepared to order by pointing to pictures. That's OK though. Because the food is phenomenal. I recommend the goat. It's been marinating and it is so moist it breaks off the bone. The salsa bar is great. The service is good. But again almost everyone speak Spanish exclusively. That's the way I like it. Authentic as it goes. It's also a great place to stop in for lunch if you're looking for laborers. I think every trade can be found on any given day. If you go there all I ask is you save me a seat. Ha ha. Best Mexican food in Utah county read more

Was pretty disappointed. Food wasn't warm, cheese wasn't melted, rice and beans were pretty bland. The horchata was not good. The prices were decent for the amount of food you got and there were a lot of other authentic options. read more

Stopped by last night cause I had a coupon and was pleasantly with surprised the set up inside!! It was so cute and they had this taco bar cart they refill with all kinda toppings like salsas, onions, veggies, jalapenos, you name it!!! So as you walk in you order at the register then they bring it out to you and it was so delicious!! we ordered the two combinations. The first being the plate of carne asada which came with rice, beans and corn tortillas. The second combination being the chilaquiles (which are like breakfast nachos) and came with a side of beans and eggs!! Honestly they were both so amazing!! the carne asada was so juicy and the breakfast nachos were my favorite. So just buy both. You wont regret it and the portion sizes I felt were just perfect - cause I got full and had some left to take home!! read more

I'm seriously in shock! On how amazing the food is! I ordered 2 tacos dorados de pollo, 1 de papa , 1 de rajas. They were all equally delicious! I'm Mexican, and my mom always makes tacos dorados, so I was a bit hesitant on how good these were going to be. But to my surprise these are AMAZING!!!! The chicken was seasoned perfectly, the rajas were just the right spicy, and the potatoes heavenly! They were garnished with a light red sauce, cabbage, sour cream and cheese. Seriously so delicious !!! I will definitely be a regular ! read more

I have been in many mexican restaurants in different places, Salt Lake, Las Vegas, in Mexico (different states), California, etc., and among them all, this is the worst that I visited. My son and I ate there. I ordered some chilaquiles, those are made with pieces of tortillas, in this case those were burnt, my son ordered a "menudo" pretty bad, no taste, the "caldo" seems like water, not flavor, the meat was not properly cooked. At the time my son paid for the food, he was charged more for every plate, like he was going to pay with a credit card and he paid cash. Funny way to charge for the food every dish has two prices, one if you pay cash and the other if you pay with credit card. This place suppose to have a rate of 4 stars, that is totally wrong, don't deserve any stars read more

My friend, a Mexican-American who lives in LA , recommended we go here for lunch. We had the birria tacos. They were some of the best tacos I've had. It was really great. Knowing it was authentic just added to the experience. I'll definitely come here every time I'm in Provo. read more

I was there a Sunday since I couldn't find any other place open and wanted to try something new, the place was very dirty and empty at the moment, tables, dishes, just everything. I had to grab a napkin myself to clean the table. Food wasn't good, cold and a bit unflavored, expensive too. The huarache and torta ahogada were the only good ones. I tried Birria and chilaquiles as well as tacos dorados and don't recommend any. read more

The food was really good! We had the pastor lonche and the carne asada huarache. The meat was tasty and the portions were decent sized. It was also nice that there are some really spicy salsas. The only reason I took off a star was because service was really slow (there wasn't even a ton of people there either) and my torta had the end/butt/stem of the tomato in it which is annoying. Overall though, authentic and tasty! read more

Great Guadalajara style food! We went Saturday morning and it was half full. I had the barbacoa style tacos which were stuffed with barbacoa, dipped in a chile sauce and then lightly fried on the griddle. Really yummy! I put the standards street-style taco fixings on them and ordered a side of creamy refried beans and rice. My wife got a carne asada burrito that was pretty big for her. She loved the meat in hers. We each got an agua de pina juice and there were still small chunks of pineapple in it. vERY GOOD PLACE! read more

Tacos are delicious! And the cleanest topping bar I've seen. Friendly and kind staff. Love it!

First of all, I love their food. They have pretty authentic and delicious food. But they need to work on their service/attentiveness and possibly COVID precautions and general cleanliness. Most of the cooks were either masks or wearing them below the nose. Also, they were not sanitizing or even cleaning all of their tables after customers used them. I'm also pretty restaurants are not supposed to have self serve serve salsa bars. read more

Mi Lindo Guadalajara - Torta ahogada - Mexican Near Me - Provo, Utah

Delicious and authentic Guadalajarense cuisine! Lots of homie dishes, it is a family run operation and we always feel at home. Everything is always cooked fresh for us and staff is very welcoming. Highly recommend their Chilaquiles, Plato de Carne Asada, and of course their tacos. They also have tacos dorados (fried until crispy and golden) as well as tacos al vapor (steamed). Both very delicious. They also have a legit salsa bar with lots of variety :) read more

On my way home from picking up my wife from work I was too hungry to make it home for her crabcakes, so we decided to shelve the meal for the next night and pop in here instead. The staff was pretty nice and my wife ordered 10 tacos, while I ordered the Torta Ahogada. Very interesting and tasty flavor, fairly different from anything I can remember having before. The closest thing I can think of that would describe it would be a stew sandwich with pulled pork, but that obviously doesn't do it justice. My wife thought her tacos were amazing too. Totally would come back, their food and prices were great! read more

Very typical Mexican food. The most closest to the real flavor. I felt like in real Guadalajara

The hype is real folks; this is about as authentic as its gonna get around these parts. I read most of the previous reviews and decided to head over here with my partner who's a chef and is really really particular about his food; basically you know if he says something is good it is really really freakin good. Based on the reviews I had him get the Birria. He had no previous notion of what he was getting into, but as soon as the food entered his mouth he was practically moaning, nodding his head with his eyes closed. Pretty much I won the lottery with this place. Now, on my end, I'm a vegetarian. And that's not really uh common among Latinos/ Mexicans as far as I've been able to tell because when I ordered my burrito w/o meat it came with meat lol. I speak literally no Spanish so I did a little googling, figured out how to communicate that I literally meant no meat, no beef chicken etc. And they got it right the second go and were so apologetic and understanding and holy cow. This burrito is like a brick. It is HUGE. like imagine the biggest heftiest burrito you can and then double it, literally. I swear this thing has to weigh over a pound. But it is SO GOOD. Sooooooo gooooood. It really is kind of a hole in the wall as others have said. Parking isn't *terrible* but obviously not ideal. The ladies behind the counter are so lovely and welcoming even though we had to be the only non-Hispanic people in the whole building. I definitely recommend, but for my vegetarian friends, maybe brush up on your Spanish before headin' out here :) read more

This place is not very visible from Freedom, which makes it a rare find. The menu had no prices. So one has to pretty much ask about each item. I went ahead and ordered the Molcajete ($25) plus six tacos ($1.50 ea). Everything was more than delicious. The molcajete could easily feed 2 to 3 guests, depending on their eating habits of course. It was extremely fulfilling, tasty, and at a great price. The waiting time was a bit drastic, but everything that tastes good takes its time. The service was decent and the sitting area inside the restaurant is just ok, which made my second visit an order for take out instead. P.S. beans and rice aren't as authentic, but beats out any of the other Mexican fast food restaurants. read more

Mi Lindo Guadalajara - Molcajete - Mexican Near Me - Provo, Utah

For me, negative reviews​ fall into two basic categories. The first is the lost opportunity. A restaurant that has potential that goes unrealized. The second is the "it is what it is." A place that achieves its goal, but that goal is unappealing. Mi Lindo Guadalajara is firmly in that second pile. I ordered the stewed beef, and my special lady friend had the pulled pork; both came with rice and beans. Neither had any veggies of which to speak. While we waited for our entrees, we sampled the onions and carrots on the salsa bar. The onions were pretty spicy, and the carrots tasted fresh. My wife's carnitas came first. She thought it was average and a bit fatty. She did like the beans. My beef was served on a styrofoam (!) plate. There wasn't much beef there, and what there was seemed fatty and kind of off-putting. The flavor was nothing special. Likewise, the rice and beans were nondescript. I had intended to order the Chile Rellenos, but they were out. I also tried to get beef enchiladas; alas, they offer only chicken and cheese. My other gripe with this place is the atmosphere, for lack of a better word. It's strictly cafeteria. A bunch of cheap tables and chairs. Some TVs. A dessert counter that looked rather unappealing. That they offered no opportunity to tip on the card we payed with was just as well, as we bused our own table. Not recommend. read more

I rediscovered this place and took my Mexican friend with me. We had birria de res. It was delicious! We then went back another time. I noticed that the food is made fresh but not sure how many times it's heated and reheated. I've gone back a several more times and each time I find things that I don't like. Today was the last time that I will be going there. They left out a container of raw chicken and put it on the fresh/sandwich prep area. Also, one of the cooks was clearly chewing gum - not a huge deal (I was still hung up on the chicken in the fresh toppings prep area). The flavor is there and I know everything is authentic. I just cant risk getting really sick from how I observed the prep area and overall food handling. read more

I got the torta ahogada, and was not impressed. The bread sucked, the carnitas weren't flavorful, and the salsa wasn't either. I'm half Mexican, and not a big Mexican food snob, but there are lots of other places close by that deserve your money. I'd really like to think that I ordered wrong... but this is their "specialty." I literally ate, went next door to smiths, got some milk, and had a bowl of cereal when I got home. #notfilling. #nottasty #cantsayodidnttry But there are a zillion good reviews for the place, it might have been an off day, but from my experience I can't recommend the joint. read more

UPDATE: This still is my favorite taco place in UT county. Tacos are still just as great. Service is always super fast and friendly. One day the guy helping us out suggested we tried Tacos Dorados. I'm so glad we did, ever since we were recommended, we've gotten some alongside our other favorite tacos. I HIGHLY recommend to anyone in UT county craving some FREAKING DELICIOUS tacos! I wish I had taken pictures but I was so excited to eat my tacos I didn't have the chance! It was my first time here and boy, I was NOT disappointed. Probably one of THE best tacos I've ever had. I can't believe this place doesn't have more reviews! I'm still day dreaming about eating them. No joke! I am really picky about the carne asada I eat. I usually get fatty chewy pieces at other places I've ate at which I do not like, at all. But No, not at this place--So tender and juicy! My boyfriend and I got 3 Barbacoa, 3 Asada and 1 Pastor taco. All very delicious but the Asada was our favorite! We had a fountain drink and a Jarritos (Guava flavor--the first place I had ever seen this flavor at) all for just under $20! So glad our friends brought us here to try! We will definitely be back in the future! read more
