El Cholo, a Mexican restaurant started in 1923 in Los Angeles and boasting six locations in southern California, is getting ready to open its first location in Utah — in Salt Lake City's Sugar House neighborhood.
El Cholo, started in 1923 and now with six locations in southern California, will open in Sugar House.
Alejandro Borquez and his wife, Rosa, opened the original El Cholo in 1923, and it’s touted as the first Mexican restaurant in Los Angeles. The company now operates six restaurants in southern California. The Sugar House location will be the chain’s first outside California. “I wanted to mark my 90th birthday with something I felt was important to the business in the future,” Salisbury said. “California is becoming less and less of a desirable place to have restaurants, and Utah is the opposite; it is looking more and more like a place you want to do business. The generations that will follow me will see the goodness made by having a future here in Utah.”
“There were no combination plates in the beginning; it was very basic California Mexican cooking,” Ron Salisbury said. “You could have a taco, chili relleno, tamale, beans and rice. It was very simple. We still use those same recipes for those core items.”
