This is our favorite Park City restaurant. We moved to Park City from Denver, which has great Mexican food. Loco Lizard is as good as Mexican gets without going to Mexico. Our favorite dishes: chicken mole, shrimp enchiladas suiza, chili rellenos, all the fajitas. I love ceviche, and this version is so fresh (that's the key) and served beautifully. Everyone in my family has their own favorite sauce, and the homemade salsas are great on everything. My teenage son orders something different every time and announces it's the best thing on the menu. The margaritas are yummy (especially the mangorita) and the nightly specials are a bargain. When the place is full we get great food service at the bar. We bring friends to Loco Lizard because it is the only restaurant we have found in Park City that is: ALWAYS delicious, reasonably priced, great service in a casual setting, easy to access and park. They catered our company holiday party (120 people) and everyone talked about the food all night. On price: I think it's very reasonable. I don't compare a full-service restaurant like Loco Lizard to places like Cafe Rio or Chipotle, since they are completely different in every way, not just price.
I keep thinking we'll find other reliable casual restaurants in town, but we are always disappointed. I suppose in a vacation town a lot of places don't quite appreciate that the locals are the key because they come in the off-season. Loco Lizard delivered the exact same quality and service in the middle of Christmas week as it did mid-week in October when the town was vacant. That's my version of reliable.
