Las Catrinas Mexican Restaurant — Restaurant in Orem

Went to their Provo Latinoamerican Festival and ordered one of their aguas frescas. The guy who took my order just said to tap my card and then who I think is the owner said to the guy “oh no..” and then said it’s okay and just proceeded to take my payment. Got my drink and then little did I know, I get notification from my credit card app recent transaction and I saw for what I thought a double charge. I went back and told the guy who took my order that he double charged me for a drink. So I thought in my head “how did this guy not notice or chose to not mention that he had dishonestly charged me twice”. I would’ve appreciated if he had mentioned it and said that he was sorry and offer a refund or another drink. But he decided to not say anything. That painted a picture in my mind that some people that work here are very dishonest about charging customers. Luckily he gave me the refund because I had caught it. Normally if I didn’t like the drink, I would’ve given one star if I had received decent service on top, but since it was good drink but dishonest, service, this...

Just a little ride down the road to Orem and we were transported into 🇲🇽 Mexico for the evening for some authentic food and ambiance.

We ordered the Parrillada de Carne plate for 2 (plenty of grilled carne asada, chicken, shrimp, chorizo, onion, jalapenos, nopales, quesadillas, rice, beans, tortillas) and the Queso Fundido. So very good... Highly recommend! We took half of it home for lunch tomorrow.

Do yourself a favor and look over the pictures from these google reviews before you go. MANY of the items are not yet on their menu. I just showed them the pictures that caught my eye from previous customers and they knew what to make.

Very helpful and gracious staff as well, they made it up exactly as we requested.

If you are like us, this may become one of your favorite Mexican...

This is our new go-to place in Utah county for Mexican food. The owner, Mar, was so helpful and kind. We ordered the enchiladas verdes and the molletes with carne asada and they were both amazing. The enchiladas were creamy but not too heavy. It came with rice and beans and those were great too. The molletes had some of the best carne asada we’ve ever had and the salsas they brought us were delicious. It was located inside of a little strip mall that we would never have found on our own but we’re so glad...
