    So we came here for a large group dinner. The server did a great job with managing the crowd and our food was timely and hot. I had the chicken club sandwich with sweet potato fries. It's a great American restaurant with reasonable prices and something for everyone.

    CAJUN PASTA , creamy and nicely spicy.
    Walter R.

    Bright, modern decor. Friendly and attentive staff. Very family friendly. Good pizza, pasta, salads; elevated casual food menu. My Cajun pasta was creamy, nicely spicy , and flavorful. The grilled cheese for the kids was an impressive"artisan sandwich" instead of the usual American cheese on white bread. Everyone enjoyed their meals, and I do not have more pictures, because they were starving and started eating before I could pull out my camera.

    Definitely a good find in downtown Salt Lake that was within walking distance from our hotel. Very short wait, large open windows with street views to people watch. Looking at all the plates coming off from the grill, we knew we made a good choice. We had the Pastrami Burger and the Egg Burger, which I switched up and got protein style. Overall, the portion sizes were bigger and more than solid. I did feel like the meat needed to be seasoned a bit more, and after it arrived, I realized that our server did not ask how we wanted our Burgers cooked. Both burgers came out well done, which took away from the overall flavor & were dry. I like my burgers medium but I assumed with them specializing in various burgers, it would start there. Service was good wtih frequent check-ins and drink refills.

    From Scratch is a small yet mighty restaurant near the Gallivan Center that offers delicious homemade food. They have a nice, chill atmosphere that is inviting for all ages. My dining partner and I enjoyed a bowl of minestrone soup that paired with the sourdough bread and a side of sweet potato fries. Those fries were ah-mazing! Be sure to request a parking validation for the adjacent parking lot.

    Chocolate Lava Cake

    The food was ok! We sat down very quickly but it took an hour to get our food. Our server was very nice and quick with drinks. The chocolate cake was amazing.

    Steak Stroganoff
    Amanda F.

    WINNER! We have been exploring places in SLC when visiting from out of town and this place was chosen on a whim. We could not have been anymore satisfied with the selection. The Rizzotto cake with the roasted red bell pepper sauce was a great start to phase in the entree choices: Steak Stroganoff, Tri Tip Steak, and Grilled Salmon. Flavors were on par for the Tri tip and Grilled Salmon. The Stroganoff was a thinner sauce but still done nicely. My only ask for a change would be to make the veggies slightly al dente, but they were still delicious. I would absolutely choose to eat at this place restaurant again.

    QUINOA BOWL w tofu.
    John B.

    Very good. Good ambiance. Casual. Great service. Quinoa bowl was very good. My chair was hard metal so not very comfortable which I thought was a little weird. An attempt at being unique, I guess. I would go back.

    White pizza
    Autumn M.

    The one thing I like at From Scratch is their white pizza. Warning, it does have a lot of garlic. It's a cute location, but the service isn't very fast. There's ample seating if you have a large group, but the times I've been whether it's small or large groups-it's always very slow.

    Short rib
    Bristol L.

    I was lucky to receive a gift card promotion from this restaurant. So I decided to stop by for lunch on a Friday. The restaurant itself got pretty busy. The pomegranate lemon drop couldn't have been better. I would say slightly less syrup would make it more digestible. The short rib dish was good. I thought that the meat itself could've been a little more tender. Unfortunately the carrots were just a little too hard to cut with a butter knife. All in all I did enjoy the atmosphere and they validate parking.

    Grilled veggies were amazing!
    Laura B.

    In town for a conference and wanted a healthy meal with organic ingredients, Ordered the wild caught salmon, mashed potatoes and grilled vegetables. This hit the spot! Delicious meal, great service and clean restaurant. Thank you! Note: I forgot to take my own photo so for transparency I grabbed this one off the internet. Really amazing food! Give it a try!

    LOAF OF BREAD
    Louis C.

    My favorite spot in Salt Lake City Everything from scratch. The bread is incredible. It's worth every penny. The biggest surprise was the Brussels sprouts. They really stole the show. Service was awesome and it's a very comfortable space. I love coming here when I'm in town. One tip, call to get reservations. It gets super busy and reservations are limited.

    This was my first experience at From Scratch, and it won't be my last! I don't know what I expected but it wasn't this. It was so GOOD. We shared the special a bacon Avocado cheeseburger with fries and a fennel sausage pizza. The burger came out looking like an advertisement burger (the ones that are never real because they look too good, with all of their perfect toppings and layers. The meat was juicy and well seasoned. The bacon was thick, and crisp, lots of thinly layered onion, lettuce tomato and sauce. The bun was soft. The pizza was yummy, the crust was so good it could be eaten plain. There was homemade ranch, and ketchup and it was all so good. I wanted to take a picture of the burger after I took some bites, but it was too good to put it down and go through that!! The service was good, they kept the water refills coming and were really attentive. The restaurant and bathroom were clean and tidy. I can't wait to try more dishes!!!

    We were on a trip to Park City/SLC and From Scratch was a 2 minute drive from our hotel. The menu looked good, so we called an Uber and made our way over. I'm glad we took a ride share, because the parking is almost non-existent here. This place's atmosphere is unfortunately one of those cold, sterile, Millennial restaurants with the uncomfortable stool seating and the cement floors. Random artwork, food served on cutting boards, cramped seating, AC blasting. Not really my type of place, but some may enjoy the "aesthetic". The coldness continued over to the staff. The hosts looked borderline annoyed that we were there. Maybe we read too much into it and they just simply were having a bad day, but they were giving us the death glare. Our server Jayce was also very rushed, but to her defense, she was working like a chicken with no head while the manager sat there and enjoyed a drink. The food was okay, nothing special. We started with the Wood-Fired Bread, which was actually pretty dry despite the hype our server gave it. The jams & butters on the side helped a bit, but we wouldn't get it again. Our entrees took 35 minutes to come out after we placed them. I ordered the Braised Short Ribs, and my Mom ordered the Tri-Tip Steak. My Braised Short Rib was a let down. The meat was cold on the inside, and the mashed potatoes were cold as well. My carrots were good but they only gave me 2. My Mom's steak was pretty good and tender, but the mashed potatoes were cold just like mine were. We told our server and they gave us a complimentary dessert, a Tiramisu. It was okay, kind of mushy, but it had a good coffee flavor. I'm giving 2 stars because I think this place has potential, but they need to work on their service and making sure their food is coming out hot. Everything looked better than it tasted.

    3 meat pizza!! Yuuum

There's a couple of pool tables. The bathrooms are a little "shocking." I was looking for the women's restroom and when the lights automatically turned on, I saw lots of 70s models posing nude. So this is what regular bodies look like before the surgery era! The men's restroom was more classy with people smoking cigars.

But I wanted a drink and was willing to take the risk, and I'm glad I did, because it was nothing like I imagined. Bartender was friendly and helpful. There was a decent amount of people watching the soccer game on tv, we were all cheering for Colombia, but then they lost, so most of them cleared out. Vibe kinda died after that. But nonetheless I had a great time, and I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly atmosphere. Plus 6$ mules and .50 cent pool is hard to beat. I guess they serve food but I don't know how good it is. Only downside is that's there's just one toilet, luckily I didn't have to wait to use it while I was there.

Upon arrival, the hostess seemed to be turning someone away even though there were many open tables. After the couple left, the hostess then had some unpleasant words to her colleague. Wasn't a great first impression. All that to say, I'm not likely to return.

The performers are absolutely incredible and clearly put so much time, energy, and heart into what they do. The bartenders have also consistently been awesome, friendly, and welcoming. Unfortunately, my experiences with the door person have become increasingly troubling. On multiple separate occasions, I've noticed a very clear difference in the way he treats me and my more visibly gay, queer, and trans friends compared with straight friends who are standing literally right beside us. The interactions have felt noticeably less welcoming and, at times, openly disrespectful toward queer people. I understand being a door person requires some directness and boundaries, but that should not mean kindness and compassion are thrown out the window. For a bar that serves as an important space for the LGBTQ+ community, this is really disappointing. There aren't many queer-friendly places in this city, and it's frustrating to feel uncomfortable or unwelcome as soon as you enter the building because of the person responsible for greeting people at the door. I really hope management considers providing additional training around LGBTQ+ etiquette, inclusivity, and respectful treatment of guests. I'd also love to see more queer people represented among the staff, particularly at the door, or at minimum see a meaningful change in the way this particular employee interacts with queer patrons. After multiple separate negative experiences, I honestly have been contemplating not returning, which is unfortunate because I genuinely love the performers and have otherwise enjoyed this venue. I'm going to give it one more chance in the future, because I want to support the performers and the queer community here, but I hope things change. If you're queer and you have a bad interaction with an older white man with scraggly facial hair at the door, please know that you're not imagining it or necessarily doing something wrong. My experiences suggest that there is a real issue with the way some queer patrons are being treated.
