El Calor Taqueria

This is a small little gem on the border of West Valley. The food is just amazing, the prices reasonable, and the birria....oh Lord above, the birria was just exquisite. I haven't had this kind of quality Mexican food in quite some time, at this price point. Don't miss this location. You will NOT be disappointed. Truly, if I could give it 10 stars, I would.

While visiting Salt Lake we Always eat here and the food is great, but this place isn't for everyone for some they would just walk in then walk right back out because it is crusty and dingy looking it seems kind of dirty but this place has the best chilies rellanos I have ever had that's why we keep going back . The food here is completely authentic it is food you would find if you went to a restaurant in a small town in Mexico you won't find Americanized Mexican food here no orange cheese in sight or glamorous cuts of meat or matching table ware what you get here is what you would get in Mexico though pieces of meat braised until tender in fragrant sauces and rendered fat, served with homemade tortillas everything is from scratch they even have aqua frescas . I gave this place a 4 star review because of the establishment appearing unkept and dingy , but the food is real and flavorful if you like greasy spoon hole in the wall secret spots only locals go to then you can appreciate the hard work they put into making there food from scratch . Prices are standard tacos are$ 2.50 and plates are between $ 10-12.
