Tarahumara Restaurant

The service was friendly, even though they seemed understaffed. We got seated in the “cantina” section and it was nice to just be around those 21 and older for a change. The salsa bar rocked and actually had truly spicy salsa. The drinks and food are a bit pricey, but delicious. The selection of tequila is impressive, especially for Utah. Some of the booths were in desperate need of repair and the staff needs to be better at clearing tables and wiping them down when guests leave. I think I’ll go again and give it another try :)

Very different Mexican Restaurant experience than I am used to but it is some of the best Mexican Food I have ever had. They have a regular restaurant, a separate bar area, and their own Mexican Bakery. We had their tamales and chili verde. Their tamales had the most meat I have ever seen in a tamale. They were very delicious and something worth taking a picture of. Their chili Verde was also very good and full of succulent pork that tasted amazing. Definitely a place worth stopping at in a small town where you don't have many dining options.

Wonderful Mexican good and service and such a good place for kids and large groups. There isn’t much to eat in midway so it’s great that this place is there and provides a sit down experience with lots of options. I got the steak fajitas and was happy. You have to try not to get filled up in chips with all the amazing salsas that are available. I would recommend stopping by if you only have a few days in Midway

Fantastic food and service, will be going back! All of the salsas are delicious (the pineapple one especially) and the chips are great. The kids meals have good portion sizes. The cocktails are also amazing. I highly recommend Hurachan, passion fruit juice and lime with lots of spiced rum! They have a cantina side of the restaurant for 21 and older. Large space for families and a great patio area. The tequila orange shrimp with vegetables was delicious and light, the vegetables were cooked perfect. Polo asado burritos were good. The beans and rice are also great. Big scoops and guacamole and sour cream with each meal. The side salad was delicious with the creamy cilantro salsa/sauce.

The food at Tarahumara was as colorful as the fall leaves on the drive up to Midway! 🍁🍁🍁 Not only do they have an extensive menu of Northern Mexican cuisine like tacos, burritos, tamales, enchiladas, fajitas and tostadas, they have an amazing made-fresh-daily salsa bar with over 20 offerings! It’s currently not self-serve amidst Covid precautions, but they give you a salsa bar menu and will bring you as many selections as you choose. My favorite was the pineapple-mango salsa and cilantro crema. For lunch I choose the Carne Asada and Birria tacos with a side salad instead of the usual rice and beans. The side salad of fresh field greens was above and beyond the average side salad. It was garnished with corn, cojita cheese, and seasoned tortilla strips. Highly recommend the passion fruit dressing with it. Our seating on the outdoor patio in the back for a late lunch was perfectly shaded, quiet, and with just enough sunshine warmth to want to linger longer. Sounds like they may have live music on the weekends evenings, though you may want to visit their website to verify. Well worth the beautiful drive up Provo Canyon to enjoy Tarahumara Restaurant and Bakery in Midway, Utah!

This awesome local restaurant was recommended to me by one of my friends that travels a whole lot! She said that we absolutely had to stop here while in Midway and we would totally be missing out if we didn’t. My best friend got the shrimp tacos and I got a combo with shrimp tacos/burrito! SO GOOD! Everything was cooked perfectly with so much flavor. Great portion sizes too! After we had our dinner, we ordered a desert that our friend raves about. The cheesecake chimichangas. Absolutely one of the best deserts I have ever had! If you don’t give them a try when you’re here, you’re crazy! Aside from the food, our waiter was so friendly and really attentive! Seriously one of the best restaurants I’ve gone to and it’s a huge step up from all of the tourist traps and chain restaurants in Heber! This local restaurant is a gem!

Very good food! Fresh ingredients and lovely salsa bar. Nice to have some veggie options and not have everything drenched in cheese. Some of the best Mexican I've had in a while.

The food was ok. The salsa bar was the real humdinger though. Some of the salsas were actually very tasty, but just difficult to enjoy due to the impractically small dipping containers, see pics for examples.
