Definitely an interesting place. Been here about three times so far and while it is not Authentic Mexican by any means it has a fun atmosphere.
A couple examples of food: Â
salsa had a good flavor but lots of sugar in it
Chile relleno was actually really good and close to authentic inside but instead of putting a nice enchilada sauce on top they put again this sweet kind of speghetti sauce on top. Which is weird because the enchiladas came with enchilada sauce
So nothing to get super excited about but still a unique and hoppin place in the smallish central Utah town of Richfield.
Love this place. I am only in Richfield about 2-3 times a year but I try to eat here whenever I come through. Sweet pork salad is delicious and my pick every time. If you are looking for real Mexican food this isn't the place tho, I would compare it to cafe rio or costa vida probably. Decor is really cool. My service has always been very good too. Only complaint is their food is kind of pricey. Almost $12 bucks for a salad is a little high for me.

This place SUCKS. How it got good reviews is beyond me. Maybe it's tasty to someone who has never been outside of Richfield. IDK.
Service is bad, food is bad. GO TO MONROE MEXICAN FOOD on Main St. if you want some good Mexican food. Small place, family ran.
Cute place. Not authentic Mexican, but decent nonetheless. Service was friendly. The big burrito is positively huge. I felt the sweet pork overly sweet for my taste (I was expecting a sweet heat, but it's just SWEET) and the chicken enchilada was bland. As was the rice, but the beans were very good. Prices were higher than I'd expect. It was our most expensive meal while dining in the area. Given the location, it was A-OK.
Review Source:Having lived in Utah and SoCal, Pepperbellys was 4 stars in Utah but 2 stars for SoCal. Â Tried the enchiladas with rice and beans, and they were simply average. Â Three stars because the ingredients tasted fresh, not pre-frozen, and the guacamole was very good. Â If you are a guac fan, get the large side to enjoy with your chips...which were stale.
Review Source:Utah, in general, is not my first choice for wonderful dining, but this place has something. Â The entire staff is VERY young, but efficient and pleasant. Â I had the fish taco, and it was a very different, but tasty presentation. Â The place could use a liquor license, but hey, it's Utah.
Review Source:If we eat in Richfield again, it will be here.
The service was fantastic, and the food was pretty great. We tried a bunch of different items, but the stand out was for sure the sweet pork burrito. Â I didn't care for the mole at all, but I'm not an expert on such things (and, um, I kind of just don't like mole). The Chile Relleno was very good as well. Â The sodas were HUGE, and the server was so awesome that she offered a to-go cup for what we weren't able to drink... I'm pretty sure that was the first time I've ever witnessed that. Â
I was pretty sad to read that this was not in fact a hole in the wall gem in small town Utah, as there is another location in Kaysville. Other than that, I can't say anything bad about this place.
Oh and because I am a nerd about such things: The decor... Signs, tables, gas pumps, all manner of rusty dented perfection... was actual vintage radness, Â not reproduction "kitsch" or items carefully selected in some chain place warehouse somewhere. That made my heart extremely happy.
Traveling from Los Angeles to Colorado, Richfield is about the right place to stop for the night. Â Looking at <a href="http://Yelp.com">http://Yelp.com</a>, we decided to try Pepperbelly. Â The decision was helped by the fact that we arrived around 8 pm, and most of the restaurants in town closed by 8:30. Â It's not the easiest place to find, but when I saw it, I realized that we had eaten there about 4 years ago. Â It wasn't bad, then, so why not?
The decor is funky and fun. Â The wait staff is young and friendly. Â Wife had a chicken enchilada with beans and rice, plus a fish taco. Â I had a chicken enchilada and a chicken burrito with beans and rice. Â It was tasty and warm. Â The chicken appeared to have been cooked earlier, and soaked in brine, which makes it moist and tasty. Â The difference between the enchilada and burrito is that the enchilada is wrapped in a corn tortilla, and the burrito is wrapped in a flour tortilla. Â It's all chicken in there, with a red sauce. Â The fish taco was tasty, as well. Â Chips and salsa were fine.
Let me explain my rating. Â This is 4 stars for Richfield. Â If it had to compete in Los Angeles, it would not fare as well. Â But the food was good, the service was good, and if I went through Richfield, I'd go back.
Coming from San Diego, this wasn't authentic Mexican food at all - but it was delicious. Â Everything was similar to the way you'd do it if you made it at home. Â It was just simple, good food. Â I shared the bean dip ($4.50-ish) a bean tostada ($4.50-ish), and a bean and cheese burrito ($2.70 - a steal!). Â Everything was tasty and very reasonably priced. Â The entrees on the menu were a little to expensive, which is why we decided to go a la carte.
We showed our Days Inn room key and got a free fried ice cream ($5.99) and it was the best I'd ever had. Â
The service was quick and friendly. Â The atmosphere was cool too - lots of old signs up and stuff.
