It's Memorial weekend. We decided to go to Mt. Pleasant over the weekend before the big rush on…read moreMonday. We couldn't find anywhere to eat at Mt. Pleasant so we drove to the Spanish Fork location. My mother-in-law was opposed to us stopping here because she has a bad experience 30 years ago. We talked her into giving ac second chance. I ordered #2 Hanks Country Breakfast which included a chicken fried steak, hash browns, eggs, and biscuits and gravy. The chicken fried steak was crispy and not too much gristle like you would get with most cfs. The gravy was had a nice hearty flavor and with black pepper infused with the gravy. This gravy tastes really familiar to me. I thought I took a picture of my dish. I guess I didn't. The gravy was the same gravy that was on the biscuits and gravy. Again, very familiar with the b & g. The hash browns were cooked in butter not oil and had a nice light brown crust on both sides. I really appreciated this. My scrambled eggs were nice and fluffy and had a nice firm texture. I also ordered the Crazy Eights which is supposed to be "Italian Donuts" with Carmel and chocolate sauce drizzled on top with a chocolate dipping sauce. The "Italian Donuts" turned out to be the Utah Scone chopped up in triangles. I enjoyed the caramel drizzle but not the chocolate sauce, which was too bitter for my tastes. After thinking about why the biscuits and gravy tastes so familiar, they remind me of the biscuits and gravy from the IHG (Holiday Inn, etc) hotels I frequented when I was on the road. These b&g are supplied by Sysco Foods. Like I said, they taste a little too familiar for me. I'm not complaining, I really like these! What I am complaining about is how you order. I think using the phone at the table to order our food reminds me of the old "Training Table" restaurant chain. I didn't appreciate the "rules" on how we needed to order and that we couldn't split the check. They didn't even deliver the food to our table. I definitely won't be leaving a tip for service! My other complaint were the restrooms. They were nasty. I would've rather went in the bushes behind the building. Check your restrooms!!!! Good thing I didn't go in there before I ate.

Wait staff was friendly but a little hard to hear since it's definitely got a diner vibe and it's pretty noisy. The Spanish omelette was a little smaller than I expected and a little dry. It needed Spanish sauce and cheese on the top, definitely. We got some green salsa to add. The breakfast sandwich was good. I expected the ciabatta roll to be a little more dense, as ciabattas normally are. It was more like a roll, but fresh! I think it comes from the Oakley bakery on the lower level. Definite diner vibe, as I said, but the floor was pretty dirty. Needed to be swept and mopped. When you're waiting for the hostess to check for a clean table, you're standing by the first seated table. A little awkward. All-in-all we'd probably go back. We like the drive up from Layton, and beggars can't be choosers on Sundays!

Service was fast and friendly and they love to answer all your questions and can deal with food allergy requests. I had the patty melt and I have to be honest. It was one of the freshest ones I have ever had! Full of flavor, didn't run "meat juice" all over the place. So, if you want to take a quick trip out of SLC. Head on up here. While you are up this way go the local antiques store and ballerina farms.

But if this is the best that Springville has to offer, I'll be going to Provo or Spanish Fork for my next dinners. The atmosphere is pleasant, airy and light. The pan seared lightly battered halibut, $41, was as listed but the texture was like it had come out of the freezer and was dry. The sauteed asparagus was fine. Salad was a lot of iceberg and very little mixed greens. It took over 15 minutes to get my glass of wine. Apparently, only the manager can go downstairs to get the wine which is locked up in a room. And then when it did come, I had to bring it up to the server station and ask for it in a clean glass...smudges and wong lipstick color were the clues. Chocolate cake was fine, but not outstanding as other diners exclaim. Springville, you got to get your game up!

Nestled in beautiful Emigration Canyon, it offers a peaceful setting where you can sit by the creek, enjoy the fresh air, and savor a delicious meal. The ambiance is hard to beat.. relaxed, scenic, and full of charm. Whether you're stopping by for breakfast, lunch, or dinner, it feels like a little getaway without having to travel far. The staff has always been friendly and welcoming, which makes the experience even better. Great food, beautiful surroundings, and a cozy atmosphere keep me coming back. This is one of my favorite places in the Salt Lake area.

It's tucked away in this gorgeous canyon just a quick drive from downtown, so you get these amazing mountain views right from the patio. The whole setup is super unique since the diner is literally built out of an old 1930s trolley car. Come hungry, because they start you off with these massive, fluffy biscuits that are out of this world. Such a fun, laid-back spot with incredible comfort food. Definitely a must-visit if you're exploring Utah!

Every single course delivered…read more We started with honey butter and rolls (dangerous in the best way), then moved to the ricotta and focaccia; perfectly balanced and honestly could've stopped there and been happy. But then came the steak, which was flat-out the best I've had in years. No notes. Here's the thing though, I'm not a gnocchi person. Never have been. Our server talked me into it anyway, and I'm genuinely grateful. It's a short rib and stew situation with gnocchi that somehow hits every note perfectly. Total convert now. And the s'mores pie to close out the night? Simply perfect. Don't skip it. The service was great too, our server clearly knew the menu inside and out and steered us exactly right.

It was first time trying Block and overall it was a neutral experience. I was with a bigger party…read moreand our table was well attended to. However, we did have one drink server where we had some issues with, but our main waitress was lovely. For starters, our table shared the baked ricotta, balsamic glazed brussel sprouts, and bread rolls with honey and butter. The brussel sprouts were good, but the bread rolls were my favorite! They were so incredibly soft and pillowy. They honestly didn't even need the bread and butter! I was most excited for the baked ricotta, but unfortunately it was a disappointment for me. Ricotta is a very mild cheese to begin with, but I tasted absolutely zero flavor from it and it was mostly just adding a textural element to the bread. The fig walnut guanciale jam was overpoweringly sweet and the guanciale was also nonexistent. Overall, what I expected to be a flavorful combination, fell pretty flat and bland for me. Onto the main, I got to try the Block burger and the house made gnocchi. The burger was a standard burger, nothing too crazy. I was surprised the patty was actually moist because it was cooked well done. The same jam from the baked ricotta was used, so wasn't a big fan of it because again the overwhelmingly sweet didn't do much to elevate the burger. I also missed any flavor from the truffle cheese sauce. So it was a pretty average burger. My gnocchi definitely tasted better than it looked. Another friend also got the same dish and it looked like they just split our portions in half and served it on two separate plates. In general, I wasn't a big fan of this dish. The braised short rib was very tender, but the whole plate sat in a pool of salty sauce. I couldn't really make out any other flavors. The scoop of crème fraiche tasted exactly like sour cream and was not the consistency that I expected. The gnocchi's were made well, but I prefer mine a little firmer. However, this is complete personal preference. Overall, service was good, but food fell severely short of what I expected. I was so excited for all of these elevated flavors and ingredients, but, sadly, none of them came through.
