I absolutely love this place. I’ve never had to wait too long for a table and the service is always fast. They have amazingly strong drinks and equally delicious food. Perfect place to start a ladies night or bring the family as you can get the Duckie drinks without alcohol.

Get the duckies drink, and it won’t matter what the food tastes like. The service was great. They let us bring in our own birthday cake and delivered our food fast. The food all lacked flavor, and with our party of 10, we ordered several dishes. The shredded beef enchiladas were too sweet, the chili rellano to much breading and the best thing is the chili verde it is full of meat and the best dish to get! The restraunt is good, you could pay less for more authentic food at betos.

Came here for the famous Duckies and also tried some of their food. The grandma’s Tacos with shrimp were the best food I have had in this restaurant! They were truly tasty and well- cooked! My friend tried the Grandma’s tacos with mashed potatoes and those were surprisingly delicious as well.

Fun place to come to, with duckie drink options which are adorable (I got a daiquiri and added a duck). I had the Chihuahua plate which is a chile relleno, beef enchilada, and smothered burrito. Its a lot of food which is great, but I wasn’t a big fan of the chile relleno. The burrito was great, and the enchilada was decent. I also asked to get fries instead of rice and beans and those were delicious.

Delicious! Delicious! Delicious! I can say that enough! We had the chicken fajitas, enchiladas and a taco and it was all so yummy! Wait staff was very friendly and the restaurant was super clean! Definitely worth it if your feeling like Mexican food! The story of the family is awesome as well and honestly makes the food better! We will definitely be back to try more entrees! Oh and try the drinks too! They looked delicious as well!

Wow, El Chihuahua restaurant in Salt Lake City is amazing! The service was great, and they managed to fit us in without a reservation. The food was some of the best in SLC! I had the shredded beef chimichanga, and it was delicious! And the duckie death star cocktails were perfect!

craving Mexican food? Save your money and visit your local taco truck. Will have more flavor and portions are close to the same size for 10 to 7 dollars, cheaper a plate. And you get your lovely taco man/lady
