If I was a filmmaker, this would very easily be a location where I'd want to make a movie. I'm not sure what it would be about, or who would be cast, but the location would be this restaurant. From the unique covered staircase that leads to the front door to the impeccable colors and the quaint European patio, Blue Iguana is a vibe!
Most of us come here to eat, however, which was also the reason for my visit last night. They take reservations, a requirement for our fairly large group, so we happily booked a table and enjoyed a meal before our show a couple blocks away. There's a little waiting room that we sat it for a few minutes while we waited for our table to be ready. It's right by the restrooms.
Service was good-I was grateful (and a little surprised) that the server was so willing to do split checks. I expected that they would not be cool with that since our group was a little larger.
I enjoyed the shredded beef tacos-although I had to scoop off the cheese. I should have known, but since it wasn't listed on the menu, I erroneously assumed it wouldn't have cheese on them. Next time I'll be sure to ask. My wife had the enchiladas and didn't care for them at all, but it could be personal preference. We agreed that we'd be willing to go again, just made adjustments to our orders. The chips and salsa were pretty good-I especially liked that there were several small containers of salsa, so we didn't all have to share one.
I'd go back in a heartbeat, just to sit out on that patio and imagine myself on the set of some movie being filmed in our little downtown Salt Lake City. Care to join me?
