" I came across Contento by chance and I couldn’t be happier! The vibrant decor completely sets the scene for a wonderful meal. We started with the guacamole which was fresh and tasty, and I ordered the Mariscos plate for my main, which was generously portioned and quite delicious. A little on the pricier side, but considering the quality, I would strongly recommend it! I will definitely make more trips here in the future. " (*Curated Review*)

" Contento Cafe created a lovely dining experience for me! When you first enter, you're enveloped by the flavors and smells of authentic Mexican cuisine. The handmade tortillas were superb, and the horchata was the best I’ve ever had! A bit on the expensive side, but delicious enough to make it worth every penny. Definitely recommend this spot to anyone looking for healthy, high-quality food! " (*Curated Review*)

" I always appreciate a restaurant that puts health first. Contento Cafe has a fantastic ambiance, great flavors, but the portion sizes could use some improvement in terms of value for money. I ordered the salmon tacos which were delicious, and I would love to see them introduce more health-conscious options. Definitely a good addition to SLC! " (*Curated Review*)

" My family and I had a great time at Contento Cafe. The service was friendly, the ambiance was enjoyable, and the food was delicious even if a bit pricey. I was impressed by their focus on organic ingredients. The enchiladas were delightful! Just a note, the portions felt a little small for what we paid, but we didn't leave hungry, which is a plus! " (*Curated Review*)

" We visited Contento Cafe for a brunch last weekend and it did not disappoint! The atmosphere was lively, and we were greeted with warm smiles. The tacos we ordered had a wonderful depth of flavor, and I could tell the ingredients were fresh and well-prepared. I highly recommend trying the Mary’s chicken; it was incredibly flavorful. We will definitely return to explore more of their menu! " (*Curated Review*)

" Contento Cafe exceeded my expectations. The waitstaff were attentive, and every dish we tried was fresh and vibrant; I really enjoyed the taco sampler as it provided a little taste of everything! The only setback was that I felt the pricing was on the higher side for casual dining, but the experience was memorable nonetheless, and I will be back! " (*Curated Review*)

" Contento Cafe charmed us with its cozy decor and delectable food. The shrimp tacos I had were nice but could’ve used a bit more seasoning. Service was friendly but could have been a touch more attentive. Overall, we enjoyed our experience and left satisfied! " (*Curated Review*)
