I have been eating here for many years but only average 3-4 visits a year. The ceviche is fantastic and among some of the best I have ever had. It's consistently good. Only issues preventing 5 stars is service is slow at times, (Limited staff), and the bathroom was very unclean. That issue was severe and it even felt like watered down soap. I am an international traveler so can overlook these things but it was something that needs to be addressed. Chips are average, and the salsa is too watered down (Not chunky). 5 stars on the Ceviche and authenticity, friendly staff, 2-3 stars on atmosphere and 1 star on the bathroom issue (If I could give that a 0 I would). I still will visit for the food quality!

2. Costa Vida
Laid-back counter-serve Mexican chain with Baja-style tacos & burritos plus gluten-free options. Ultimate fresh mex made your way - exactly as you love it!

Costa Vida, Cafe Rio, and Chipotle are all basically the same. Seriously - the food tastes almost exactly the same. It's the same format, similar prices, and similar food offered. I had the chicken burrito and it was definitely filling, but just wasn't very authentic or good. The green chile sauce is SWEET. Seriously? Who does that? It tasted like candy. My New Mexican friends would die of indignation. It was crowded, noisy, and I felt rushed through the line. Hey, at least I didn't have to tip. So many of my Utah friends love Costa Vida and Cafe Rio. They're entitled to their opinions I guess. If you're up for REAL Mexican food, check out Maria Bonita nearby, or el Mexsal in Provo.

This restaurant is everything you would expect in South America. The bread and desserts are made authentic and fresh daily, the ingredients down to the beverages are the same lining the streets of Chile, Argentina, and Peru, and the environment is very friendly and warm. Even things like the hot dogs (completos) are a better breed than what you're used to.
