We just can’t get enough Mexican food, and there’s one place in Utah that’s serving up a platter that’s piled so high with delicious food that you’ll want to bring along a friend to share it. Check out Chile Tepin:

Chile Tepin opened its doors in 2017, and was named as the Best New Mexican Restaurant by the Salt Lake Tribune the same year. You’ll see why when you visit.

Start with a basket of fresh chips and salsa or guacamole, but make sure to save some room because the portions here are generous.

One of the favorite dishes here is the parrillada and it’s piled so high with delicious Mexican food that you’ll want to share it with at least one other person.

The platter includes carne asada, chicken, shrimp, pico de gallo, guacamole, crema, and queso fresca. It’s accompanied by a pile of tortillas, rice and beans. Parrillada is designed to feed two people.

The molcajete is another dish that’s prepared for two. It’s served in a traditional Mexican mortar and pestle that’s full of carne asada, chicken, shrimp, green tomatillo sauce with nopales and queso fresco.

A margarita is the perfect accompaniment to your parrillada or molcajete, and Chile Tepin has several different varieties on the bar menu.

If you still have room for dessert when you’ve finished your dinner, you’ll want to order the fried ice cream, flan, sopapillas, or churro cheesecake.
