Best Mexican 2007
BEST MEXICAN- READER'S CHOICE AWARDRed Iguana
You just have to see the crowd waiting outside for a seat to know this perennial favorite doesn’t disappoint its legion of fans.
Inside, the conversations are loud and the décor is bright, but it’s the food that’s the draw. Nachos, chili verde burritos and moles too numerous to mention are all stand-out menu items, as are the margaritas. When they’re in town, Tex-Mex band Los Lobos eats there. If that isn’t a recommendation, what is? 736 W. North Temple, 322-1489, RedIguana.com

BEST MEXICANRed Iguana
The Cardenas dynasty lives on. With the passing of her mother and brother, Lucy Cardenas came to Utah two years ago to carry on a four-decade run of second-to-none Mexican food. Trading on the family’s stockpile of distinctive mole recipes, Red Iguana would have to start serving Chalupas to fall from its lofty perch. And if you ever wondered why God found swine fit for this earth, just try the carnitas.( City Weekly )
Singer Imogen Heap: "Music has
been a great ride for Heap,
but it's not the whole enchilada"
When British indie pop princess Imogen Heap isn't recording, writing or performing, she's thinking about bike riding, Wikipedia and Salt Lake's own Red Iguana.Tonight's show won't be Heap's first trip to Utah. A particular Salt Lake eatery left a spicy stamp on her memory: The Red Iguana. It's such a good place!" she says. "Every time I'm in Salt Lake, I stop there. We get cabs and haul our luggage and everything; the whole crew." Salt Lake Tribune, 12/07/2006 (Read More)
