Green Iguana Mexican Restaurant
Family-owned Mexican restaurant in the Red Cliffs corridor, opened in 2016 by father and son Gama and Ricardo Arreola.
The kitchen works the traditional plates — carne asada, carnitas, chile verde, enchiladas, chimichangas — as a full-service dining room rather than a counter operation, and draws both local trade and travelers coming off the interstate.
About the food
Chile verde, carne asada and carnitas are three different cooking methods rather than three flavors: pork simmered in a tomatillo and green chilli sauce, beef grilled fast over high heat, and pork cooked slowly in its own fat until it shreds. A full-service dining room is a meaningful choice in the Red Cliffs corridor, where the competition is mostly counter-service, and it draws travelers coming off Interstate 15 as well as local trade.
