I was pretty shocked to stumble upon an amazing Mexican
I was pretty shocked to stumble upon an amazing Mexican spot in Utah but Red Iguana was genuinely my favorite meal of the trip. Like their name suggests - they have killer Mexican food! I was really impressed by the Puntas de filete a la nortena; it
Friendly , attentive and immediate service.
Had the horchata , cool rich , creamy cinnamon. Tortilla chips and a red salsa. Dined on the enchiladas Amarillas on the servers recommendation. The mole is slightly sweet with cinnamon, a soft sweet heat sneaks up on you. Dining room is decorated i

We saw this on the first season of Diners Drive Ins and Dives and my wife, who thinks Mole should be a religion really wanted to go. BUt over the next nearly 18 years we had no reason to be in Salt Lake City. That changed this week, and so we had our
Great food.
Fast service. Good prices.. what else do you want? We eat here every chance we get.

I mean, if you want mole THIS IS THE SPOT! In America it feels like it's pretty hard to find places that specialize in Mole so since I'm an "out-of-towner" I got two moles to give the whole mole thingy a spin. Probably the best mo
Outstanding.
Easily the best Mexican food in SLC. The plates are huge and you get more than enough to eat, the drinks are superb, and I'll be back every time I'm in town.

Well, we used to have a business downtown 25 years ago-this place was 'the bomb'! Homemade chips and salsa-now the worst tasting grocery store chips , stale, salsa not too bad but, yes but, not like days gone by. We tried five years ago, th

Fun local spot near airport! Yelp for the win on this one! We came bc we just landed and it was close to airport! Quick tour around the town, then grabbed lunch at this place! Stickers everywhere friendly host! Walked us to the back of the restaurant
Killer Mexican
Always try to hit a Triple D when traveling and managed 3 on a trip to SLC. Waitress did a great job with attention to detail. Had the meal Guy tried and was definitely killer Mexican which was the Puntas De Filete A La Nortena and polished off with

The service was quick (we ordered to go!) and the food was very delicious! The homemade salsa had a good kick to it that builds with each bite. My husband and I really enjoyed our dinner!

Can you say Mole? I had my sights (and tastebuds) on finding some mole - little did I know the abundance of options and amazing flavors available. The staff was incredibly attentive and even provided a mole sampler to find the right option. While I c
Friendly staff.
Great food. The menu had a great variety. I was there as a couple. Neither of us had mole but that was a featured part of the menu. Everything was priced well.
Nice people but food was not memorable.
Saw lots of good reviews so figured I would try it.
We loved the vibe and food was great too at the O.
G. Red Iguana. Our hotel shuttle driver recommended this place and we made sure to find it. Great cocktails and some specials. Awesome Mole samples if you don't have nut allergies. Loved the flautas! Visiting from NC and FL. Go Vacay Your Way
The food was amazing.
We had a party of 5 adults and 3 children and we were served quickly. We did not care for the desserts but the entrees, appetizers, chips and salsa were delicious.
Delicious mexican food in an authentic atmosphere.
Fast and friendly servers. They can be busy so go early. Totally worth the wait!
Great food and excellent service
The staff was prompt and very attentive and gave us great recommendations. The food was super good. I got the mango enchiladas and they were so good. Portion were generous and prices were affordable. Can't wait to comeback !
My friend recommended Red Iguana so I tried it for myself.
This place is where I had one of the best Mexican food ever. They have nice decors inside. Service was phenomenal. For some reason, we had two servers. The first one offered us a sample of each of the moles to help decide what to get. The second one
Amazing customer service and a very clean environment.
I ordered the Puntas De Filete A La Norteña and I liked it, but the mole was not my favorite (admittedly, I am not a huge fan of mole, but this was almond mole and I wanted to try it). The marg was really good and the way it was pureed instead of tr

Service and food was all good.
I suggest to make a reservation as this place gets very busy. We didn't make a reservation and waited 40 mins on a labor day Monday! We did see people with reservation get to be seated first. This was our first time trying the mole. Though w
The staff at Red Iguana was very friendly and patient.
We asked a lot of questions about the different moles, and they answered them all--even brought us the mole sampler. We decided on the Mole Amarillo (almond mole, non-spicy) with carnitas. The portion was huge and packed with flavor. We also ordered

Red Iguana is an institution for a reason - it never disappoints! Recently went to lunch with my parents and ordered their Mole of the Day special - chicken and cream cheese enchiladas with a strawberry mole and it was one of the best things I have e
Food is ok, but service is bad.
We got a young girl as a server & it took a while to get waters, refills were non-existent (I had to ask). This is the 2nd time we go there & service is not good. The place wasn't even busy; hate to imagine service if it was. There'

An Institution in SLC
Been here several times, every time we pass through SLC. This time we tried the grilled fish tacos and the Mango enchiladas (the sauce was sweet with baking spices). Very good, super speedy service, friendly waitress.
We had traditional Enchiladas with Chips & Salsa both were incredibly delicious . The service was fast and friendly. The location of the restaurant is also very good.
Delicious Mexican food that is worth the wait!
Excellent Mexican despite being located in SLC. Haha. Great service, amazing food. Lots of tacos, burritos, enchilada plates, all your favorites. Definitely a different take on many of them, but still delicious and high-quality food. Light and crisp
Absolutely Awesome
If there were six stars this place would get it. The service was awesome and absolutely fun to talk with. She recommended great dishes the like of which I haven’t had in the United States. Get anything with the moles. Gor for their specialities. T

Each posting on AppointmentTrader shows you which user submitted it and along with that provides a trackrecord of that user which indicates how much experience

If there is no user posting that fits your schedule, you can bid on your preferred time.
Let's say Peter has a great morning and decides to take his three friends to Red Iguana Salt Lake City at 6 PM the same day.
He checks the restaurant's website and sees that no reservations are available. He then looks at the Red Iguana Salt Lake City page on AppointmentTrader, but finds that there are no user postings either.
That's where the community-driven bid process comes in.
Peter can place a bid on AppointmentTrader, which serves as a reward for any community member who chooses to work on securing the reservation. AT then notifies experienced users who may be able to help.
Step-by-Step Process
1.) Setting a Reward (Bid)
* AppointmentTrader uses historical data to recommend a reasonable reward amount for securing a reservation - let's say $100.
* Peter really wants to go, so he increases the bid (or reward) to $200.
* At this stage, the reservation does not exist yet.
2.) A Community User Picks Up the Bid
* DazzlingStretch76, an experienced AT user, has a strong track record of successfully securing reservations and low refund requests, they receive a notification about Peter's $200 bid.
* DazzlingStretch76 picks up the bid, meaning they will now work on securing the reservation.
* Peter can now talk to DazzlingStretch76 for any questions Peter may have as DazzlingStretch76 user fills the bid.
3.) Finding the Reservation
* DazzlingStretch76 now uses their connections at Red Iguana Salt Lake City to secure the table.
* If they successfully get the 6 PM table for four, Peter receives a confirmation that the reservation has been secured.
* If DazzlingStretch76 fails to secure the reservation, the bid is returned to the pool so another user can try.
4.) Payment & Protection
* Once the reservation is secured, DazzlingStretch76 receives the $200 reward which is credited to DazzlingStretch76's AT balance, where users manage their own funds and can withdraw via available payout options such as bank transfer, PayPal, or Zelle.
* Peter can now enjoy the dinner with his friends at Red Iguana Salt Lake City!
* As with all transactions on AT, disputes and no-show fees are handled through the platform's community-driven resolution system. Users with a strong track record are incentivized to fulfill bids successfully, and community members can report issues to maintain trust in the marketplace.
