The Spanglish Mexican restaurant — Restaurant in Layton

My husband and I decided to try Spanglish for our date night last week. We’ve seen this place in passing for the last few years, but hadn’t tried it until a few days ago and I deeply regret that.

Parking is scarce, but luckily there were places to park on the side of the building. There is a small sign that says it’s customer parking.

When we first walked in, we were immediately greeted by the kindest employee. He had a big smile on his face and told us to let him know if we had questions. We had never been there, so we had a few questions for him. He answered them all and had some really great recommendations for us. He even gave us free samples of the waters and ice creams (which were AMAZING). I’m not one to normally drink flavored water, but they were so fresh and delicious that I had to have one!

My husband and I both ordered a quesibirria burrito each and then ordered a grande carne asada loaded fries to share. For dessert we ordered a churro cheesecake and a tres leches cake.

The positions sizes here are fantastic! We were not expecting such great portions. The burritos were cooked perfectly! The outside was crispy and the inside was soft and tender. It was the perfect burrito.

The fries were out of this world!!! They had the perfect amount of spice and flavor and I couldn’t stop eating them! It’s been days and I can’t quit thinking about them! This is something I didn’t know I needed in my life.

The desserts were so good! Both were freshly made and absolutely delicious! My husband and I devoured them! They had the perfect amount of sweetness without being overbearing. Even the frosting was on point (and frosting is usually too sweet for me).

My husband and I will be visiting Spanglish again in the near future! I need more of their food! The flavors, serving sizes, and friendly employee will keep us...

The new location opened this week. I called to place a carry out order and was not aware of the new location. I went to the old place and was instructed to go over to the new location to pick up my food. The employee at the old location said that they would only be serving snack items. I went to the new location and before leaving the register I checked to make sure the elotes' were in the bag - they weren't. The employee told me that they don't make the elote at the new location, and they are going to be part of the snack menu at the old location. She wasn't able to make the elote for me because the ingredients (mayo, cheese, chili seasoning, lime) were over at the old location even though they had the corn on the cobs at the new place. She mentioned they have to take the corn over to the old place for them to make the elote. When I asked further questions about it, the employee said, "I don't know, I just work here." It does not make sense to me that the elote can not be made in house at the old place. If you dine in at the new place, and want elote, then you would have to make a separate trip to the old location. isn't elote a common appetizer?? Also, the chile verde burrito had pineapple in it - not sure how the pineapple was put into the burrito. Overall the food is great, however I feel they may loose some business due to the issue of having to travel between two separate locations to get the food items...

Tried The Spanglish for dinner. My hopes exceeded my experience. The atmosphere is bright colors and charming. The menu is huge.

I liked the strawberries con crema. We got that first and then it was probably 20 mins until the rest of the food arrived.

The elotes fries were ok, the fries themselves were sort of flavorless. I love elote but it was just ok on flavor.

I got burria quesadillas. They were the best thing. My friend got the burria floutas. And one drink. Not sure how to spell that. A kid’s meal is $9 so he just ate off his mom’s plate.

They had a high chair which was on the ground. I wish we’d known they had them sooner, when my friend’s toddler was trying to run away while we waited.

It made me miss my favorite place to get burria tacos so much!

I was hungry and wasn’t expecting the long wait. I had to ask if they forgot about us. It wasn’t crowded at all.

Came to $56 with a 15% prepaid tip. Mistake. I should tip after. I really really dislike how the screen to pay says 15% good, 20% very good. But I haven’t tried anything yet and it’s not the same as a sit down restaurant.

I think 10% is generous for casual dining without a waiter. It feels like they’re guilting you into it. So next time I’ll put it in the tip jar.

I’m ready to find a Mexican place I can love. I know this place gets great reviews but I’m...
