1. El Toro Viejo

Chosen by locals as the number one Mexican restaurant in Brigham, and the third overall restaurant, El Toro Viejo is sure to become your new favorite stop for lunch or dinner. Grab an order of Bean Dip or the Queso, a creamy cheese blend including peppers, onions, and an option to add chorizo, for the table to elevate your chip game. Other winning appetizers include the Tocino (bacon) Prawns and the Confetti Sampler with flautas, a quesadilla, nachos, and more.

When it comes to your main course, you can’t go wrong with one of the favorites, especially the Molcajete, a piping hot stone bowl with marinated chicken, cheese, chorizo, tortillas, and other toppings, or the Veggie Enchiladas, a vegetarian-friendly option that’s rolled corn tortillas with baby spinach, Monterey Jack, salsa verde, and served with beans and a salad. If you prefer burritos, look no further than the Lime Cilantro, the Chile Verde, or the famous Fajita.

2. Taco Time

Convenience and speed are usually sacrificed for quality or vice versa, but you don’t need to worry about that at Taco Time. All of the chips and taco shells are made fresh every morning, the burritos are rolled by hand, and Taco Time does it all while guaranteeing speedy service. Grab your food drive-through or take out, and when you do, don’t rule out stopping by for breakfast– the Breakfast Quesadilla, Egg & Tater Burrito, Taters & Gravy, and more are all available.

If you’re there for lunch or dinner, you won’t be disappointed by the Nachos Grande, a plate of homemade chips with refried pinto beans, cheddar and pepper jack cheese, enchilada sauce, black beans, and handcrafted Salsa Fresca. Burritos come two ways, and you can get them either crispy like the Cripsy Pinto Bean and the Crispy Chicken, or soft tortilla with options including the Chicken Ranchero, the 5 Alarm, the Sweet Pork Burrito, and the famous Casita Burrito.

3. Ricardo’s Restaurant

If you’re looking for delicious, family-owned Mexican cuisine, you’ll find it at Ricardo’s on Main Street in Brigham. They’ve got the most extensive breakfast options on this list, and we can’t recommend the Huevos Ranchos, farm fresh eggs on a corn tortilla with homemade pico de gallo, and the New York Style Steak & Eggs, which includes a 6-ounce steak broiled to your preference, hash browns, beans, and dollar cakes, available either Mexican or American style.

Other breakfast options such as the Belgian Waffle or French Toast may be less authentic but are nonetheless a tasty way to begin your day. For lunch and dinner, it’s practically a requirement that you order the Jumping Jacks, a local favorite with a blend of cheeses, roasted chilies, and peppers in an egg roll deep fried and served with sour cream and guacamole. Treat yourself to a Tamale Plate to guarantee your meal is a good one.

From dips to burritos to tamales, there’s something for everyone at the Mexican restaurants of Brigham. Once you’ve grabbed your favorites, stop by Hansen Motors of Brigham for the most extensive and certified vehicular inventory in the city!
