The warm skillet rolls were delicious, although we didn't love the herb butter. I had the chicken, which was excellent, but the seasoning on the veggies wasn't my favorite. Three in our group had the filet and loved it, and my son said the burger was outstanding. The fries were awesome too! Cocktails were great, although the martini glasses were surprisingly small. We finished with the pie sampler -- chocolate cream, banana cream and key lime. All were delicious, but banana cream was my favorite! Overall it was definitely on the pricey side but still a great first dinner in SLC!

Celebrating our 3rd wedding anniversary we chose to celebrate at Urban Hill for our special…read moreevening. We had hoped for a more intimate atmosphere for our night out, however, the restaurant is definitely more lively and louder than a quiet intimate dinner out. There must have been a notable person sitting next to us because everyone it seemed that worked in the restaurant stopped by the table and had a conversation with this couple, and when the chef came out and walked right by us to have a conversation with the table next to us, that's when it dawned on me as a chef doesn't normally come out just to talk to a normal person like us. It was a little bit irritating with all the hoopla at the table next to us which put a little bit of damper on our anniversary meal. Especially when our waiter devoted significant time to the "special" table leaving us feeling a bit neglected in a top-tier restaurant like Urban Hill. However, the meal itself was delicious.

The carrots, pork belly, and trout were all fantastic--everything was beautifully prepared and full of flavor. And definitely save room for the chocolate pudding. It's a must!

However, additional details create a loving connection - its off-Broadway central location, the copper-paneled ceiling that mimics warm conversations in varied spaces (cocktail, chef's counter, expandable tables for groups, and outdoor), fresh, locally-sourced ingredients with service to match. It's the place where I had my first glass of Turley Zinfandel (education alongside), and the place I will always return for my favorite Wagyu Beef Stroganoff (a comfort from home, but upscale). This one delivered with large, firm, expertly seasoned portobello & forest mushrooms over wide, freshly handmade pappardelle pasta that soaks up rich beef stock (a touch of black pepper) blended with crème fraîche. A generous portion of wagyu is tender and rich. PRO TIP: Mix then let it sit & marinade a minute - flavor pays in dividends. For dessert, a Valhrona Chocolate Pudding topped with whip cream and Maldon flake salt - exquisite, but expensive. The texture is comforting and delicious - olive oil adds a lingering finish with slight fruit.

We had our minds set on one place but found this instead and I think the better pop in option won! Located in down town on an alley, this hidden place loves up to what it is named after!

Had a very pleasant and delicious meal at Carson Kitchen. Mid afternoon arrival and the place was…read morealmost empty. Suspect it was because it was as post lunch and pre dinner. Sergio was a wonderful server and gave us good recommendations and was engaging. We had the burnt Hot Dog ends which I thought were very tasty. A light BBQ sauce was just right. Also had the Short Rib Steak that was tender and had a delicious pesto topping. Finally we tried the Pepp-Pepper flat bread pizza. This is a pizza with pepperoni and banana peppers with a very tasty tomato sauce. All were delicious! A prior review mentioned a change card fee that we also noticed. Sergio explained this is mandated by the State and not the restaurant and he doesn't like it either. All in all very pleased and we will go back.

It had been a hot day so we chose to sit inside, which I think was our first mistake. The inside is nice, but because it is cabinish it felt very dark. It was also fairly warm inside, this coming from someone who is always cold!! Our waitress was also very very interesting, to say the least. The food was decent, but I wouldn't say it is something I now crave. We started with the crab cakes (which were really good and I'd recommend), then had the market steak and bison as entrees, and finished with the bread pudding (I was not impressed at all!) Overall it was ok.

Honestly the cheese course was not my favorite. It was good cheese, but I didn't think the greens paired well with it so it really was just cheese, which I found a little disappointing. However the entrees more than made up for it. The pasta especially was absolutely delicious, the braised beef cheek was cooked so perfectly it melted in my mouth. Not to mention I ended up breaking out in hives at the start of the meal (unrelated to the food) and the staff was so kind. They quickly boxed our food and even brought me some Claritin to help tide me over. The food was piping hot when they boxed it and traveled beautifully, which was a bonus for sure. For brunch, my husband had the burger with a fried egg and I had their special of the day: chilaquiles. This might have been the best chilaquiles I've had in the valley. The pork was delicious, the poached egg was actually perfect, and the chips still kept their crunch which is usually my biggest gripe. I didn't try the burger, but my husband was raving about it. I would highly recommend Oquirrh.

Then there are not a lot of seats inside with a small bar. Service was outstanding and very friendly. They do not have a large wine list, but we found a good bottle of red. The menu is not large either, but everyone in our party of 4 loved everything. For appetizers, we had the sourdough bread, a cheese course, and something called milk-braised potatoes. The bread was delicious and absolutely worth it. Then we all devoured the cheeses--all three were wonderful (for one, we got name and chased it down and bought more the next day. Then the potatoes were unusual but really tasty. They had a great flavor and the vinaigrette that was used was so special. Absolutely worth having. For the main course, I had the pork chop. One of the best if not the best I have ever had. It was cooked well, but still juicy and flavorful. Then I loved the mash and mushrooms that were with it. Others loved the ribeye and the fish. Everything was perfect. I was kind of full, but had bread pudding for dessert. This was excellent as well, but also very filling. Definitely worth visiting!

Such a fun restaurant and vibe for special occasions!!! They even made a special menu with our names!!! We started off with a Sauvignon Blanc for me and a Zero Prosecco for my husband.

I went with the Iceberg Wedge, minus the onions. Again, delicious!! Hiro brought us a special anniversary dessert, a chocolate mousse with a sparkler on top!!! Wonderful way to end the meal!! We will definitely come back!! I really like how attentive they are to dietary restrictions and how they kept checking on us to make sure we liked our food and if we needed anything else. Hiro never disappeared!!

Back to Heart & Hill for an early dinner with my dear friend Grayson and his wife. The setting…read moreremains one of the restaurant's greatest strengths. The décor is warm, modern, and sophisticated, with a contemporary yet cozy feel that makes it a very inviting place to relax and enjoy an evening. Unfortunately, this visit was a bit disappointing from a culinary standpoint. My ahi tuna did not seem as fresh as I would have expected, and the burger was less than impressive. It was slightly overcooked, and the patty was quite thin, lacking the quality and flavor that the beautiful setting promises. On the positive side, the service was attentive, professional, and genuinely friendly throughout our meal. Heart & Hill has all the ingredients to be a standout destination. A stronger focus on the quality of the meat and a more substantial burger would go a long way toward matching the excellent atmosphere they have created.

We walked through a crowd and went to a hostess in the back, walked downstairs, and entered The Rest, which had a VERY different vibe. I really liked their drink menu options and while I can't remember the name of the kind bartender who helped us, she gave us some great recommendations. I got the Savvy-C and liked it a lot! My boyfriend got some kind of old fashioned-esque drink and also liked it. Kitchen was unfortunately closed so we didn't eat anything. The ambiance was great. They had so many vinyls and were playing a variety of different music. The interior felt like a mix of rustic and Victorian vibes. Super cool. We definitely want to come back one night to eat.

But wow, this dish was out of this world. Braised lamb is then crisped on a grill, served over a bed of roasted vegetables with a crème sauce. One of the best things I've ever eaten. Also ordered the sourdough, again so good - crunchy on the outside but soft and chewy on the inside. Started with a martini (they have my favorite - Belvedere, A+ for that) which was perfect, and a glass of wine which I enjoyed. For dessert we loved the Olive oil cake. The dark chocolate terrine got mixed reviews, but most of us don't like hazelnut so wrong thing to order. Waiter was nice. When is SLC this is a must!
