Blue Iguana - Great Mexican Food in Salt Lake City

Sunday, July 30th, 2006 | | 3 Comments

On Saturday, my husband and I were in the mood for good Mexican food. We decided to go to downtown Salt Lake City to the Blue Iguana. It was delicious! The food is very inexpensive - I had Chile Verde, and my meal was about $10. My husband had the Mole Polleno, and it was also yummy, and ran about $10. Both meals included beans and rice, and it was way more than either of us could eat.

The Blue Iguana has a sister restaurant, the Red Iguana. I haven’t tried that one, but I hear it is just as delicious. The Red Iguana is actually the original restaurant, and the Blue Iguana was built after the success of Red.

The service was a bit slow at first, but once our orderes were taken, the food came out quickly. Also, they apologized for being so slow, and gave us free fried ice cream to make up for it. It was absolutely delicious! I would highly recommend going there.
