Purchased from the Red Iguana family in 1998, the Blue Iguana Restaurant has provided patrons with delicious, authentic Mexican food for over two decades. From day one, the only goal for Blue Iguana was to create a menu rich with traditional, old-world recipes while pushing the culinary envelope and creating new, one-of-a-kind Mexican cuisine.Trained by the culinary artists of Chihuahua, our head chef, Chef Castillo, cooks up some of the most mouth-watering and unexpected Mexican cuisine outside of his homeland. After he learned closely guarded recipes created in the tradition of generations-old Aztec cuisine, Chef Castillo began applying these techniques to create everything from classic Mexican dishes to modern cuisine.Our restaurant is warm, inviting, family-friendly, and full of energy. Dining at the Blue Iguana is more than a meal—it’s a journey back in time to the tastes and sounds of old-world Mexico.

The waiter was very busy but gave us his attention and the food was amazing. The only problem was trying to find parking and ended up having to pay for parking. We would definitely go back again when we are in town

Food is great! Pumpkin bread, Brussels: yum! Dessert was good! Banana bread pudding. Service was strange: ordered promptly but never saw my waitstaff again. Other people delivered. Ambience is nothing. But food: very good.
