Salty Iguana 17717 U.S. 40, Independence, MO 64055

"Salty is one of our favorite Mexican restaurants. Today's service was great. We sat in the open seating bar area and the bartender was our server. While overwhelmed, she made a great effort to keep everything in resealable time. Today's chips weren't great so we reluctantly asked for a new batch. She was happy to bring a new batch and they were a game changer! Delicious! Two of us can split a 2 item combo for lunch and it's plenty of food. They will even split it for you in the kitchen, which is nice. We usually get an enchilada and a blue taco (ground beef in both). The blue taco at Salty is always hit or miss in cook quality (the shell is either perfect, under-cooked and chewy or overcooked and falls apart in your hand). On this visit, it was perfect! The enchilada, rice and beans are always good. Thank you to our server last Saturday! Salty will continue to be a go to for us."

"It was overall an awful experience. We sat down and 10 minutes later, our waitress takes our drink order and we order 2 dr peppers and a margarita fishbowl. It took 30 minutes for our waitress to bring the margarita and she never checked on us or refilled my drink. It took about 40 minutes for them to bring out our food and they only brought out me and my husband’s food and not our daughters food (she only ordered french fries) and our food was barely warm. We waited to eat because we didn’t want to eat before our child and it had been 10 minutes since getting our food and we still hadn't received our daughters food so when we saw our waitress we told her we wanted the manager and we just asked to leave because we didn't even care to eat at that point. Awful service and we didn’t eat the food but it looked awful. Very disappointed as we just wanted a nice family dinner. Will never go back again."

"Pulled into the parking lot and it looked full. We walked inside and saw plenty of available tables and were seated promptly. Server was friendly and very quickly refilled the salsa and chips. Our food was marvelous. This might be my new favorite Mexican restaurant."

"Our favorite Mexican restaurant. Great house margaritas! Love their beans and rice. Chips and salsa always fresh. Next time I order a pick 3 lunch I’ll ask for the flauta and taco on a separate plate. It got messy!"
