About Us
Serving Millcreek & Salt Lake City’s Best Mexican Food Since 1984.
A Millcreek Original Since 1984 — Where Flavor, Community & Tradition Meet.
Tres Hombres Mexican Grill & Cantina has been serving the Wasatch Front for more than 40 years, blending bold Mexican flavors, fresh ingredients, and one of Utah’s largest tequila selections with a warm, neighborhood atmosphere. Since opening our doors in 1984, we’ve become a Millcreek favorite — a place where locals celebrate birthdays, first dates, family dinners, and everything in between.
Located right next to Millcreek Common, we’re steps away from Millcreek’s ice-skating rink, concerts, outdoor events, and year-round community activities. Whether guests are enjoying the ice rink in winter or relaxing on the plaza in summer, Tres Hombres is the perfect stop before or after the fun — making us a go-to destination for both locals and visitors.
We’re proud to continue serving Millcreek as it grows, evolves, and builds new traditions around the vibrant Millcreek Common. Whether it’s your first visit or your 100th, we look forward to welcoming you and sharing the Tres Hombres experience — great food, great company, and the same timeless flavors we’ve served since 1984.
TRADITIONAL, VEGETARIAN, & VEGAN OPTIONS
We make our chips and salsa fresh every day and prepare all our food without lard — a big plus for vegetarian and vegan diners in Millcreek and Salt Lake City. Our menu includes gluten-free, vegetarian, and vegan Mexican dishes designed so everyone can enjoy bold, flavorful meals. Just ask your server and they’ll guide you to the best options for your dietary needs.

At Tres Hombres Mexican Grill & Cantina, we proudly partner with local and sustainable vendors throughout the Salt Lake City area. Supporting Utah businesses is at the heart of what we do — from the fresh ingredients in our kitchen to the products we bring into our restaurant. By sourcing locally whenever possible, we ensure better flavor, fresher food, and a stronger community.
Eco Friendly
At Tres Hombres, sustainability has been part of our identity from the beginning. More than 80% of the finished wood throughout the restaurant was reclaimed from the original 1948 structure that once stood on this property. Our dining tables and the custom lighting fixtures above the bar were hand-crafted by the owner, combining recycled materials with personal craftsmanship. It’s our way of honoring the past while creating a warm, welcoming space for the community.
