Ham and cheese hearty omelette with hash browns and a 2-egg breakfast with homemade sausage and home fries.
Melissa G.

When we landed in SLC we wanted to find a spot that had basic breakfast offerings that was close to our rental car pickup. I was delighted to find Left Fork Grill right down the street and when we pulled up there was plenty of parking left in the lot as we made our way inside. The smells of bacon, sausage, and hot brewed coffee hit us right when we walked in. We were greeted and sat in a modest booth not too far from the entrance. As Texans we were a little shocked with the cold crisp air so I was happy to walk in and feel like I was wrapped up in a warmth of pancake smells and some warm coffee. The menu was diverse and there was plenty of us to check out including their pie selection. Also, while sitting in the booth, I noticed and loved the pie shelf that is included in every single seating situation around the grill. Super super cute idea and just begs for you to get a pie so you can display it for yourself, and everyone else, what lovely pie dessert you have to eat! Our food was delicious and since we had a long morning of commuting from Texas to SLC we finished every single bite of our dishes. I opted for a 2 egg, seasoned home fries with some tasty caramelized onions, toast, and sausage dish while my partner had a hearty 3 egg ham and cheese omelette. Service was fast and friendly. Our waitress was super attentive with our coffee and refilling us up as well as making small talk about our day and our plans which I appreciated it. It was a fantastic place to jumpstart our time and eating experience in SLC!

Current grossness
ANGELA S.

Sad-sad. Left Fork has jumped the shark. NO PIE ON MONDAYS?! WTF?! Compare the former & current pics, & see for yourself... Higher prices. Lower quality. A few weeks ago, The meatloaf was more of a dry burger with a few peppers & onions in it. Chili sauce tasted of HFCS. Today, Eggs in a Hole flat gross... greasy eggs & bread, burnt bacon that even smelled old (almost gagged me), homefries coated in some msg maltodextrin junk, no onions or peppers, hollandaise lumpy & no flavor. Attitudy server... negative ambiance. I guess Jeff is "over it." Understandably, but I won't be back. Sad-sad.

Eggs Benedict

Cute local diner. Our server Roxanne was so kind and sweet and made our day, she is a phenomenal waitress & kept checking on us to make sure we were happy. The eggs Benedict were delicious, the New York steak had great taste but was not very tender. Would come back for breakfast. The parking lot is very small.

Tuna sandwich

I have found the diner of my dreams! Tucked away on 3900 South in SLC, this little restaurant is just the kind of comfort food I was hoping for. I have a friend who was moved to an assisted living facility and loves rhubarb pie. I'm not much of a pie maker, so called all over trying to find rhubarb pie. Hooray! Left Fork had it and said they'd box up a few pieces for me. I also ordered a tuna sandwich for lunch to go even though my hopes were low. Most places don't make good tuna sandwiches and when they do, they often taste odd and aren't good. However, Left Fork's sandwich was perfect! Pickles, cheese, the right amount of mayo, lettuce, tomato, and tasty bread. Very generous size, too. The pie is amazing! I got some extra slices for my family and the crust is delicious. We will definitely be going back soon to try more items! Everyone was also really friendly, on the phone and in-person, and I love the pride flags this month, too. ‍

First off, the biggest plus was that we were able to get seated right away! We had first tried to go to Penny Ann's nearby and there was a 1 hour wait. The service overall was good. At first our waitress was very impatient and short with us, but all of a sudden she flipped a switch and was very nice, so I don't know what that was about. The food was just okay. It wasn't anything to write home about, but wasn't bad either. We got the pancakes and breakfast sandwich. The pancakes were HUGE, but lacking on sweetness and flavor. The breakfast sandwich was pretty good though. The restaurant itself definetly has a 50's mom and pop diner vibe. I di have to say the building does look a little run down, with water stains all over the ceiling and such. They also display and sell local artists work, which is pretty cool, but boy are they overpriced. Seemed like the average piece was about $150. Overall, if you're looking for somewhere to take the fam for lunch or breakfast every once and a while, this is a good choice.

Great breakfast deal! From 6 am - 11 am $5.99 1 very large pancake house made sausage and 2 eggs! Also had a slice of banana cream pie! Beautiful crust and yummy! Really nice folks and good food!

After hearing so many other people talking about this diner, I wanted to give it a try. So my wife and I visited for breakfast recently. It encompasses the entire meaning of "divey" by being a bit dated with a good percentage of patrons on first name basis with the staff. It's almost like something you'd see in a RomCom-but here in Salt Lake City. We were advised to take a specific table when we walked in. There was no host, just a waitress running around taking care of everyone-she was also the one who greeted us and directed us where to sit. We watched for a few minutes and realized this poor lady was running the place herself. Not a single other staff member in sight. (Hopefully someone will notice the big "help wanted" sign in the window soon.) She came to us, took our order and returned a few minutes later with drinks. I felt bad for her-I really wanted to grab a notepad and jump in to help. Some of the other guests were getting antsy and we noticed one party left early and asked for their food to go. She remained pleasant and did the best she could. It's not her fault that she's the only one there. The food itself was great! I had eggs, pancakes and bacon. I couldn't tell what was in the eggs, but it made the flavor stand out in a good way. The pancakes were a little thin for my liking, but not terrible. And the bacon was fine-two of the pieces were perfection and the third was just about all fat. I left that one behind. I will add this place to my list of those I'd like to return to. Some of the lunch and dinner menu items looked really good and I'd like to give them a shot.

Menu as of 12/2022

I'm sad to say, but my experience here was just OK. Prices are a smidge over priced for what you're getting. I ordered the hot cakes (2 big pancakes, choice of sausage, ham, or bacon, and 2 eggs) for $12.99. My pancakes lacked flavor and there was a short hair in the butter. The pancakes needed salt and I tried a bite of my friends corn beef hash and it was very one note and needed more salt as well. We also got the clam chowder which had good flavor but didn't taste like traditional clam chowder. It was still good though! Took photos of the menu since they don't have the menu updated on their website!

The special of the day, huevos rancheros. Super tasty. A bit spicy.
Todd S.

This is absolutely a five star diner. What a lovely spot with wonderful food, amazing prices, lovely service, and a great diner vibe. This time I got the asparagus scramble special. It was just wonderful. The potatoes that came with it were also just heavenly. My mom got the French toast and substituted fruit for the protein and they gave no extra charge. She loved the French toast and the fruit. Just a quality spot that you need to check out if you long for the small town service and home town cooking you get from small towns. Yet with this place too get it ten minutes from downtown. Amazing service and just good vibes. Five stars all the way.

Our first time here we lucked out watching the Utah Mammoths whip Vegas Golden Knights in the…read moreStanley cup first round game here in Sat Lake City while eating good food (lamb burger with feta, and French dip sandwich au jus--both with fries). Our server Marin was awesome. The bartender and owner stopped by our table several times to check on us. They have regular and high tables plus seats at the bar. There were several TVs around the back of the restaurant. The front of the restaurant is open during the day for breakfast. I want to try that out soon! Plenty of parking and easy access off the freeway.

The Food: Me and my 30 friends (We're a dinner group) set out each week to try new places, and…read moresocialize. So I think in talking to most of my friends I got a good view on the food, and presentation. I had a starter of Totchos, and the Beef Dipper for my entrée. Both were excellent, I shared my Totchos. These are tater tot nachos, they were excellent, normally I don't like cheese sauce on Nachos, but given the consistency and flavor of this sauce (house made, I'm guessing. Not canned) They were excellent. The Beef Dipper and Au Jus, also top notch! Generally in a French dip, there is a lot of fatty pieces, this was not that. Also at my table was the Chile Verde bowl, this one has a kick... but my friend having it really enjoyed it. The fish and chips was great, smelled fresh. Lets talk about the sides. Choice of Fries (appeared to be battered fries, always a favorite of mine.) Tots, or house made potato chips. I had the Potato Chips with mine, these were excellent, crisp and tender on the inside. The Athena (Lamb Burger) got rave reviews from one at the table The Service: Because we were in a large group they advised us they were going to be taking our orders as we came in so not to overwhelm the kitchen staff. Excellent communication throughout service given that we were a large group. I talked to one of the Owners, Laurie, I could tell she had a huge sense of pride in the place. Very friendly! The Restaurant: Great atmosphere, Fun artwork, best of all, VERY Clean, nothing sticky or no grease buildup on any surface. The glass ware on the wall behind the bar as all polished. In the bar area they stack their silver, tableware, condiments etc. in a cute little cozy box on the table, with the main dining area setup as a diner with the traditional paper napkin and silverware. For a diner motif to have shined silver and glassware is a nice touch! Summary: Eat here! The prices are reasonable, the food is excellent, when I looked at the menu online I was a little put off by no actual entrée's on the dinner menu, however the in house experience made up for that, it's a pub food vibe and they are doing it well!

Four of us went for brunch on a Sunday morning and much to our surprise the place wasn't full and there was no wait for a table. It was nice weather so we requested to sit on the patio. While they have a nice patio area it appeared that no one had prepared and cleaned the patio for customers today. The tables with a bit dirty with debris from the trees and hadn't been wiped off at all but we were sat there anyways. We waited over 20 minutes to place our order. Not sure what the situation was because the place wasn't that busy but many tables seemed to be waiting a while to place orders or receive their food. We finally got a chance to order and each of us ordered something different. I tried the Thai Coconut Pancakes which sounded delicious. Sadly we waited and waited again for our food and then it arrived in stages. Anyone that runs a restaurant kitchen knows that patrons want to each together at the same time. Our dishes came out one by one with significant timing gaps between them. It made our experience a little disappointing. My pancakes never came out. I said something to one server and she said she'd check on it. Several minutes went by and still nothing and our own server didn't even check back in on us. I went inside to see where my pancakes were and they said there was a mistake and they were still working on it. Finally after the other 3 in our party were just about finished eating my Thai Coconut Pancakes arrived. I will say the pancakes were delicious, flavorful and quite unique. I would order this dish again but I must say based on the slow service experience we had today I'm a bit hesitant to return to Jeffi's.
