House of Corn Mexican Cuisine

Just had my first meal there tonight. My husband and I stopped in to try the place. I had 2 chicken street tacos and my husband has their chicken tamales. Oh man, everything was so good. I got to taste my husbands tamales and I can say the best I have ever had. The street tacos were very good. I am going to take some friends there in a couple of days. The staff were also great. Food came out fast and so fresh tasting.

House of Corn is simply amazing! I tried several dishes and every single one was full of authentic flavor, made with so much care. The service was warm and quick, and the presentation was beautiful. Definitely a place I highly recommend. I can’t wait to come back!

I found the use of from scratch tortilla chips and tortillas to be quite nice. I had the asada burrito with the chips and salsa. Quiet restaurant,big portions. I’d recommend this place for a larger party. Rating 7.5/10 all things considered.

Fun atmosphere but the food wasn't great. Fairly certain put cheese in my burrito when I asked for no cheese and my friends dish was very salty. Service was also a bit lacking.

I recently visited House of Corn in Salt Lake City, and it was an absolute standout for authentic Mexican food. This spot truly lives up to its name, focusing on fresh, handmade corn tortillas in different varieties (blue, red, yellow) that elevate every dish. We ordered the enchiladas and the quesabirria (those cheesy, crispy birria tacos with tender beef and that rich consommé for dipping). Everything was amazing – the enchiladas were perfectly sauced with flavorful fillings wrapped in those incredible homemade tortillas, and the quesabirria was juicy, melty, and packed with bold, authentic flavors. The birria meat was fall-apart tender, and dipping the tacos in the broth took it to another level. The portions were generous, the ingredients tasted fresh and high-quality, and the whole experience felt like a real taste of traditional Mexican cuisine without any Tex-Mex shortcuts. If you’re craving genuine flavors and especially love corn-based dishes done right, this is a must-try. Highly recommend – definitely coming back soon! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Flautas were a texture of stale, fried tortilla, and birria consome tasted like stale pantry mix. Small portions and I probably won’t eat here again.

This is update. Went back and it was perfect!! The food was very good as well as the service. However, the air conditioning was broken, and the fan kept turning off. Made it miserable!

Delicious, authentic Mexican food in Salt Lake. The decorations were charming and reflected classic Mexico, the portions generous, as seen in the mocajete photo and deliciously seasoned. Would recommend.

Delicious. By 7-11. Hidden Gem Nice setting. Order at bar or table. Full service at booth

This Mexican restaurant does serve authentic Mexican food. I got the pambazo with chorizo, and the chorizo was so good, with a great portion. Also got chilaquiles verdes with birria, and it was delicious; the birria was not dry at all. I was just disappointed in their tamales; they were ok, but they were dry.

This is a great quick lunch spot with plenty of seating and very attractive interior. I visited with a couple coworkers and we tried a variety of dishes that we each enjoyed. Chile rellenos had nice fluffy batter, enchiladas were a good portion, quesabirria had great cheese, and street tacos (chicken and shrimp) were delicious. We were greeted as soon as we entered and offered a fresh tortilla to try! Food came out quickly. All of us agreed we would come back! I had been here once before during breakfast hours and ordered a breakfast burrito but think I received a regular one, which was underwhelming as the vegetables were cold. But the good lunch experience erased that!

I became violently ill (two headed dragon as some would call it) within hours of eating here, so I won't return. I had all the symptoms of food poisoning. My previous/first review was flagged by House of Corn because I was discreet and did not provide enough detail so I have provided that detail now. The tamales tasted re-heated. They were quite dry. The salsa bar was room temperature, not chilled. The sauces with their saucy name were sitting at the bar and were not chilled. I guess I should have known better.

Chill atmosphere with authentic home made Mexican food. We had the Huaraches, quesaburrias, and queso fundido- all of which were amazing despite the fundido being a little charred.

Glad I decided to drop in to eat at House Of Corn, friendly service and food was delicious. Tasted very fresh and the salsas are great. We enjoyed their Huarache and Chilaquiles. Recommend this place to anyone.

tacos had an after taste. the asada was really dry. there was no juiciness or good flavor to the pastor or asada. was really expecting more. the beans and rice are very mediocre

It was very American Mexican food. The chips were too thick and the chili verde was just green sauce.

This place was amazing with great food, amazing service and we even got a tour of how the tortillas are made.

Very bland. Super dry beef in tacos. Fast service. Tortillas were nothing special. Not enough salsa on bar to doctor them up to be good. Salsa bar need revamped and cleaned up. At best it was edible. Completely unsatisfying thank goodness only got two tacos. I only ate one. I almost got three definitely will not be coming back. I tried it so you didn't have to save yourself the trip and go to ninth and ninth taco trucks.

Food is terrible salsa bar was a dirty atrocity and the prices are too high. Just no.

I was born and raised in Arizona and this place is one of the best Mexican food places you can get here in Utah. I almost wept when I had their tamales, I'm so glad I wont have to go another Christmas without them! The staff is also super sweet, it is clean and hip. I can't recommend them enough

This is my first time coming here and I will definitely be returning! I ordered the chilaquiles with over easy eggs and let me just say they are some of the best ones I've had in Salt Lake! The food tasted fresh and perfectly seasoned. The portion of the plate was good considering the price... the chilaquiles come with rice and beans, making it the perfect complement. The salsa bar is well stocked and includes some staples like cucumbers, radish, salsas, etc. The service was quick and the workers were very friendly and approachable. The space is nice and they even have the lotería to play while you wait. Would definitely recommend !! :)

Saw this on Tic Tok. The food was amazing. The prices were reasonable. A definite "going to go back" in my book. Bring an appetite. Large portions!!!

We love the house of corn! It is the best most authentic food I've had since being in Mexico! Would recommend the huaraches any day of the week.

Stopped by for my lunch break and wasn't even aware this place existed. Ordered a chicken quesadilla and was very impressed with the service! Very attentive staff who made sure I enjoyed every aspect of my meal. I will definitely be back and I will bring some friends :)

I used to work at his first location. Yes he has a failed restaurant and before he says it was the location it is not. I would make $150-$300 worth of tips each day yes I would like to have split this with the cooking staff but no he completely pocketed all the funds claiming that it was to pay the light bill, that is why you sell tacos $5 to pay for your restaurant bills. There are so many other things when I asked him why he told me not to recommend the carne asada tacos -because that is a staple of Mexican cuisine- he said because that's a Tex-mex thing excuse me what?!?! Then a hamburger and fries is Asian cuisine. Not to mention when I worked there we closed at 9 one night without telling any employees he closed the restaurant at 8 and proceeded to have a family party and make us employees serve him. Armando you have some fucking nerve

My favorite tacos. Owner is friendly. They serve breakfast. You can tell everything is fresh. So glad they've reopened. PLEASE give this place a try!!!!

We just had some tacos but they were very good. Fresh tortillas. There are a lot if interesting items on the menu I would like to try. Things I haven't seen at any other Mexican restaurants. We'll be back.

My favorite Mexican Restaurant!!!! Always fresh and great flavors!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The staff is very friendly

I had high hopes for House of Corn, Salt Lake City but they were quickly dashed on my first dining experience there. I ordered the Pazole which I consider a good bench mark for a supposedly authentic Mexican restaurant. I was willing to pay $12.99 for a bowl of soup because it takes time to make good Pazole. What I got was l a bowl of lazy Pazole, that is, a soup that no one took the time to slow cook to coax out even an ounce of flavor. There was no hint of ancho or guajillo chili, no essence of pork broth and, it was topped with shredded lettuce instead of cabbage! I know it takes time to make good Pazole and like Ramen, it's all about the broth. The pork was unseasoned, lacked salt and tasted like it had been pressure cooked in an InstaPot, (not to give InstaPot a bad name). The al pastor taco that my partner had was just as bland (unseasoned pork and ungrilled pineapple. What a disappointment!!! Back to my regular taco truck I go and for a third of the price.
