Reviews for El Mexiquense Grill in Lehi, UT
Great out of the way Mexican place. Authentic food and good vibe to the place. Also the free salsa is a nice touch even though... the chip portions are skimpy. All in all though the food wad filling and very tasty. Can't complain. I will be coming back tothis place again for sure. Read more
Update as of 3/18/22 - We have been here MANY times, but this last time was a bit disappointing. The guac wasn't seasoned much-... needs more salt and more lime (but I guess I understand why they don't do that, cause people like theirs differently). I gotthree tacos and my husband got the carnitas chimichanga, and my carnitas taco and his chimichanga were REALLY dried out, towhere parts needed to be spit out. My daughter's fries were almost over fried, seriously overcooked, almost like a cracker.Hopefully next time will be better. Today was the second visit we have had and it was great, once again! We were blown away thefirst time. First visit I got carnitas, chicken and Al pastor tacos and my husband got the carne asada burrito. The burrito wasawesome and my tacos were too, but the chicken was just chicken so I don't recommend that. Got a quesadilla for our son and itwas great and filling. They give free chips!!!! Finally a place with free chips and a salsa bar! Salsa bar is okay. Today we gotthe carnitas chimichanga and the carne asada nachos. Carne asada nachos were AMAZING while the chimichanga was good, but notgreat. Too many beans, to where it overpowered the taste of the carnitas. But the carne asada meat here is delicious. Soreasonably priced and great options! Our new fav Mexican place. Our old fav closed and they had the best chimichanga we haveever had, which is why else Mexicense's is alright and not great. But we will definitely come here again and again! Read more
I ordered tacos Al pastor and the they had specks of meat, so much cilantro and onions and a huge chunk of pineapple. Took 40... minutes to get our food and the restaurant wasn?t that full. The Al pastor seemed fried. The chicken was still raw. We had avery bad experience. Read more

Always a good time here. Great portions for the price. I love the fresh corn tortillas, softer than any others I've eaten at a... restaurant. The meat is always well seasoned, and the fresh salsa can't be beat. Read more
I ordered a Family Meal and didn't receive half the order. What I did get was nothing to write home about. The Al Pastor was... "meh". The Carne Asada was HORRIBLE, it's dyed red from some type of cinnamon marinade - not AT ALL what someone would expectCarne Asada to be like. Read more
Probably the best place to get tacos that are as good as the classic taco cart tacos you find. I visited a few months back and... quality was alot better with better service. They have great food but I came around 4 p.m. and it was very slow with only 1other customer but the staff missed details on what I asked for and made me feel like I was an inconvenience to them for askingto have my order the way I asked. It was a few kids all under 20 probably so most likely not their A team staff but it reflectedin how the food was prepared and how I felt about the overall experience. Carne asada taco was a 10 Shrimp Taco 8 Fish Taco7 Their menu looks great though and ill be back to try out some new items. This joint is so close to a 10 though and with alittle more attention to detail they could be a new favorite. Read more
The service was good, the bathroom was clean, but the food was not great. The meat on our nachos was so dry, I felt like it... needed queso or beans or something extra, not just meat and melted cheese and a little salsa. For the other part of our order,we received something completely different than what we ordered, but didn't realize until we were home. It was grilled or bakedchicken with rice and beans. Honestly, not bad! The seasoning on the chicken was actually great and it wasn't dry. However therewas somehow a hole in the bottom of the styrofoam box before they put it in the bag... So we had to deal with the chicken juicespilling out of the bag when we got home. There are probably some good things on the menu but our experience was just bad :( Read more
