“I'm always so surprised when I run into someone who has never been or heard of Italian village. They're so historic that it should be dedicated as a historic monument. The pizza benders and lasagna never dissapoints. I have such great memories eating their food. In the 80's as a young kid, eating my bender at grandma's was life. I have feelings of impending doom thinking they will one day close their doors, ha ha ha. If you haven't been, get their classic pizza bender with the dipping sauce.“
“If you like Italian food then you have to visit this restaurant in SLC! We went there twice during our 4 day stay. The service was great and so was the food! For appetizers I recommend the whipped Brie and carpaccio. The bread service was also so yummy! As for the entrees we got the risotto, brasato braised beef, truffle pasta which were 10/10. The filet Mingon was also tasty but could use a little bit less salt. Ravioli al Funghi is vegan and also tasted very fresh. As for dessert I would recommend the tiramisu! Honestly everything was flavorful 10/10 recommend.“
“5 stars isn't enough for this establishment. Don't let the location fool you.... the decor is amazing, the environment top notch, the employees all care fpr you and your satisfaction. Absolutely will dine here again the next time I'm in slc. The food... the wine.. . WOW!“
“Love love love this deli and wish I still lived near here! Staff is friendly, food is great, and the fresh options are endless! I try something new here each visit but go crazy for the meatballs (but it’s okay I can get those as a side too). I didn’t even notice it was hidden right here for months and was finally able to stop in.“
“1. Ignacio (waiter) is the best waiter I’ve ever had his kindness and patience made our experience perfect. He was on top of everything ( Always made sure we had our drinks & always made sure to ask us if he could do anything for us) 2. The food was made to order and really fresh. For starters the pizza is AMAZING. Also, both of the pastas we tried were mouthwatering and delightful. This is the best Italian Food I’ve ever had and I will always make sure to stop by whenever I am in Salt Lake City. ? ❤️“
“We are from Pocatello and we came to SL for a fun hangout day, decided we wanted to get some good Italian food came here and it is the best food and restaurant we have ever had! Hands down will definitely come here again! Our waiter was amazing too he was very nice! A great place to eat! Thank you Per Noi Trattoria Family!“
“We went here because of the great reviews but had a little different experience. The four of us ordered cannelloni, Tuscan chicken pasta, a mushroom pizza, and chicken mushroom ravioli with pesto sauce. Everything was served at the same time, and it was all hot except the ravioli, which was barely warm. The cannelloni (two on the plate) were not pasta in any traditional sense, more like a crepe wrapped around the filling. The food was pretty good, not great, and overpriced in our opinions for the size of the portions, which were adequate but not generous, except for the pizza. It was of a good size. We asked for water and received Costco bottled water at $1.75 each. Our server did as well as she could, but she was the only person running the restaurant, including cooking. We left a decent tip because she earned it, but we will not go back.Edited after reading the owner's two responses (the first, apparently written in haste and anger, was appropriately deleted, but I have a screenshot) --In hindsight I raised the food and general ratings to four stars. As you can see in my review, most of my issues were not with food quality.In my many experiences with Italian restaurants through the years, I have never seen cannelloni served in crepes.Local restaurants generally offer the option of free tap water in glasses. It is not mandatory, and if we had read the menu more closely, we would have seen water listed among the drinks, an oversight on our part.Based on what I mentioned in the original review, and especially based on your first response, we are more committed than ever to not returning.“
“Overpriced phily sandwiches, the amount of meat and cheese is minimum. The large sandwich is expensive about $13 without soda or fries, and it should barely cost 5 dollars. Low quality ingredients, average taste makes the perfect combination to waste your money and never come back. Everything wrong with Moochie's, this guys that will rip you off! avoid them, I have warned you.“
“I have eaten more than 50 meals here over the past 15 years and have enjoyed each and every one of them. In addition, I have hosted parties of around 20 people on multiple occassions and overall, everyone enjoyed them and I have always been impressed by the staff here!Atmosphere inside has always been good, even though the remodel on the outside can make it appear as if they are not open for business, thankfully they are. Even with the dust from the construction outside, I have not seen it appear inside the restaurant, that likely takes added effort for the staff.“
“Great new place. Staff are attentive but not overbearing. Florida, our server was a pleasure. Very knowledgeable about all menu items. Substitutions were not a problem. Atmosphere is nice. A few Italian country music would make it great.Food was delicious. Bruscetta and Calamari appetizer were very good. Fresh parmesan cheese. Calamari was good, with very light breading.Main courses were large and well prepared. All were good.Thanks to all Napoli staff for a wonderful dining experience.The 4 from Colorado.“
“If you haven't stopped in dined here I highly recommend it. I was invited to a VIP dinner with Aurora a software company in the solar industry. We sat down and had early cocktails followed by sit-down dinner and I ordered the filet.The meat was cooked to perfection and the accompanying vegetables and potatoes were perfect garnishment.They offer some of the best red wines especially their Cabernet caymus Sauvignon.I had a wise selection of desserts and I chose the dark chocolate mousse which was finish to the dinner“
“This place is so good. This is the second time we’ve picked up pasta here and, so far, our favorite sauces are the simple San Marzano and San Marzano with veggies. The latter has more of that onion flavor you might be used to in sauces if you don’t usually get simple red sauces. The pasta is fresh and has a great bite. It’s not watery, overcooked, or bland. A lot comes in a regular size so you’ll be filled.Both flavors of panna cotta are wonderful. The chocolate is rich and the mixed berry is my personal favorite.I really appreciate that there’s a place with great fresh pasta that’s so accessible.“
“The ambiance of this place is great! It's perfect for a date, meeting, gathering, or just dinner. Everything has a rustic feel to it.The food is all delicious. The handmade pasta was the absolute highlight out of everything. The tagliatelle was amazing, and I added a lobster tail on top as was recommended by the waiter. The lamb papardelle was also great, but lamb is not generally something I order myself.The house cocktails were not the best part of our meal, and I would recommend just getting something else. They weren't very tasty because strong alcohol flavors muted everything, but that was just my palette.The doughnuts are awesome. Listen to everyone and don't miss out on those. They're served hot and fresh.The tiramisu was also very good. It had a nice espresso flavor, but it was still very light, airy, and creamy.“
“The staff is extremely attentive, the food is over the top. The portion sizes are perfect. This truly is a dining experience. Not to mention the wine is incredible. We shared a bottle of the Ripasso and it was phenomenal. If I had to complain about anything, parking is limited and the building is underwhelming considering the quality of the rest of the experience. Absolutely one of my favorite restaurants in the valley. And they follow the European tradition of no tipping allowed. If you haven't had the opportunity to give this place a shot it should definitely be on your list.“
“This is a pretty epic restaurant! I made reservations for my wife's b'day and they made it a great celebration. I ordered the double cut pork chops; this was one of the best meals I've had. I recommend bringing some cash for the complimentary valet service (think tips).“
“My wife and I have been excited to try this place! The environment and decor is great. The service was awesome. The food was really good. We would definitely come back. We went right after it opened and they didn't have their liquor license yet which they said they should have soon. We got the smoked trout dip (4/5) the chips were especially good. The risotto (1.5/5) was our least favorite. It was a little crunchy and the green apples in it didn't really compliment the dish. The braised beef and hummus was INCREDIBLE (6/5). So so tasty and tender. The pomegranate molasses was such a nice touch and the flat bread was awesome. Speaking of which the bread they bring out at the beginning also INCREDIBLE (6/5). We also got the smoked pastrami and charred cabbage (4/5). It was a yummy dish. I don't think I'd get it again. Surprisingly the charred cabbage was the star of the show, not the pastrami but it was still an enjoyable dish to try. We will definitely be back to Roux!“
“Went for lunch today 3-2-24 and an awesome experience - lots of parking - located between Nordstrom $ Macey's - lots of parking since it's near a mall entrance! The service people deserves a 5+ rating - you order & pay at the counter but they bring your order to your table! They will bring water & cups & refills to your table and offer needed silverware! We came for an early lunch but discovered they just changed to opening a hour later at noon! No problem they were as kind & apologetic and allowed us to wait at a table & even offered water ! I got their lunch exclusive- calabrese focaccia- A focaccia sandwich filled with spicy salami tomatoes mozz cream - very very yummy and can't wait to have it again! It's only served until 2 pm so come on early to try their lunch specials! Everything looks so good - we'll be back for more great service & yummy food. It's well worth the try you won't be disappointed!“
“I really liked working there. Jake and Shawn were always accompanying with my hours and time off. But it really was my favorite place to work. Everyone you work with is really nice. I hope they're all doing well! :) The food is really good, especially the meatball sub and Philly. Everything is pretty good. It's a good place to just hang out and just eat and play on your phone.“
“This restaurant is beautiful, has great service, and amazing food! We walked right in with a large party and we were seated in beautiful a private room. If you love modern Italian food and haven’t been here yet, you need to give them a try. You will be impressed!“
“Hostesses were very speedy and friendly, my waiter Jacob was incredibly informative, kind, and had great recommendations, and the pizza was great.The crust was flavorful, and totally different on the two pies that I ordered, the toppings were thoughtfully coordinated, and all of the ingredients tasted of a premium quality and freshness.Parking: Get there early, as the lot fills quickly.“
“After eating at Stanza, I couldn't believe I'd never eaten here before. The food here was an unexpected treat. The flavors in every dish complimented each other in such a way that I didn't think were possible. Typically, when I go out to eat, I may find one or two things I want to try. However, this place offered so many delicious descriptions of their dishes that I couldn't pick between 5 or 6 different dishes. I chose the pecan crusted rack of lamb. I'm so glad I did because it was cooked to perfection, and the flavor was devine. The mascerpone polenta was a flavorful surprise. Order it! You won't be disappointed. The Kallette salad and the linguine dish were a knockout! Every bite offered the most amazing flavors. You seriously can't go wrong with whatever you order here. This place is seriously a secret surprise! I'm gonna come back here and have told several of my friends about since dining here. Besides the food, the atmosphere is nice and inviting. More than enough room for you and others without feeling like you're on top of each other. No obnoxious loud music to have to deal with like these new places popping up all over SLC. There is plenty of packing and a nice patio. Just go! You can thank me later.“
“Wow. I was so impressed with this place last night. Hannah was exceptional. Whenever a dish was brought out she would follow up a few min later to make sure we were satisfied and doing well. The food is high quality, and the presentation obviously matters to them. It’s so refreshing to go to a vegan establishment that doesn’t have grumpy hipster staff who just think you should be happy about whatever they choose to give you that day.. lol. I’m talking about a competitor around the corner. But If you have standards in your dining experience when you go out to spend your hard earned money, then Seasons hits the mark. You might pay a just a little more here than some of the other Plant Based restaurants around town, but you’ll be happy about spending your money when you see what you get in return. We have been here several times and have received this consistency. We’ll definitely be back.“
“DELICIOUS!I thought this was gonna be a fine dining service, but it was not, it is more casual but relaxed, I liked it, fine dishes in a casual atmosphere. We came for lunch and asked for the Heirloom Caprese as appetizer, so good. Then I asked for Parpadelle al Tartufo: Wonderful! So tasty, creamy, loved the pasta and the flavor in general along with mushrooms. Also the Truffle pizza was so astounding!! I would say the pizza is one of the best I’ve tried in Salt lake city. Our server was great and attentive, forgot to ask his name to give a shout out. The place has an urban style, cool! I am definitely coming back!“
“If you want a snack or something as a side order, the bread sticks with the Alfredo dip. They do an excellent job here. It is so good!! We got it one day, and the kids ate it all before we knew it. We ended up getting it the next day,too. It went great with our pasta dinner!“
“Aside from going 80 in the slow lane Carlucci's is the only thing I miss about Utah. Their coffee is excellent, I haven't had a baked good there I didn't love. Though I have to call out their Decadences (rich chocolate torts) and fruit tarts are especially good. I am addicted to their amazing pasta salad, and baked Italian tofu sandwiches. But their other lunch and breakfast items are also amazing. Seriously go there and enjoy.“
“Loved the experience at Bartolo's! Excellent service! The server had great recommendations, and was friendly, helpful, and attentive. The food was excellent, and delivered with great timing. The foccaccia appetizer was delicious. We had the house salad, and a side caeser salad with no chicken. Both salads were very light on dressing, which was great. The main dinner was a Lamb Campanelle and a Pistachio Pesto Campanelle with added shrimp. Both were excellent. We especially loved the fresh pasta. I was impressed with how much lamb was in the dish. Bartolo's is a definite place to go again!“
“Our food at Valter's Osteria was fantastic! My husband and I were looking for a top tier restaurant for our last night in Salt Lake City and Valter's Osteria did not disappoint. The inside of the restaurant is gorgeous but still manages to feel like a family-owned establishment. It is an upscale restaurant even though they do not have a dress code. If you do not want to feel out of place, I suggest dressing up a little bit. It is a fairly small dining space for how busy they are. While I am not a fan of cramped dining, the waiters bus the tables regularly, so you do not typically have too much on your table at any time. The wait staff is also very serious, which I mistook at first. It seems to be the type of high-class atmosphere they are going for and not that they are looking down on you. It made me feel a little small at first but by the time we got our appetizer I was over it.Our waiter, Gustavo, had a lot of good suggestions and we took him up on all of them. We ordered a porchetta, rucola e fontina for our appetizer. It was good and light. For our entrees we ordered veal albese and the nana in porchetta savinese (duck in cognac and grape sauce). I had the veal, and it was really good but the duck dish my husband had was absolutely delicious. It was very different from anything we have eaten before, and I am sure we will order it again if we ever go back to Valter's Osteria. We had to order dessert and the only time our waiter smiled at us was when we were bringing us the desserts. We knew it was going to be good! For dessert we ordered the tiramisu which was so good it almost made me cry. I know that is dramatic, but it was so good, and it made me so happy! We also ordered the lemon gelato with honey and lemon juice, and it was hands down the best dessert my husband and I have ever had at a restaurant. The waiter prepares the dessert table side, and it is really fun to watch. I could go back to Valter's Osteria just for the lemon gelato.It is pretty rare that my husband and I enjoy everything we get at a restaurant, but here everything was absolutely delicious. If you are in the Salt Lake City area and are looking for an incredible Italian restaurant, look no further than Valter's Osteria.“
“I heard about this place and drove all the way across the valley to try it. I ate possibly the best lasagna I have tasted in years. This is a traditional, family owned mama and papa Italian restaurant. It's more like the places I have eaten at in Chicago and NY. I plan to go back soon. I want to buy dinner for a particular friend who is stuck in a rut. He always wants to go to the Olive Garden. He needs to branch out and see what he has been missing. The "old country" family pictures on the walls are worth checking out, too.“
“I've never personally eaten I'm the dining room. However, if you're looking for something different than the big names that is worth your money this place is it!Delicious pizza, amazing staff and you don't feel like you're trying to gnaw through cardboard.Kids love it, wife loves it, I love it!“
“Tin Roof Grill is one of those restaurants that you drive up and the outside appearance is deceiving. The open seating concept is awesome, however we made reservations which are recommended. The food is “ to die for” and the service is quick and friendly. Heaven the Goat Cheese Appetizer, you’ll be glad you did!!“
Italian • $$
“Olive Garden is a staple kind of restaurant meaning there is always at least 2 in any city. Truth be told I'm not a huge fan of Italian food but thus is the place my friend wanted to go. I really wanted 3 margaritos but I was driving so sadly I could not partake.“
“We found this gem on Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives. Definitely worth the visit. Great atmosphere, friendly staff, and delicious food with plenty of gluten-free options for those with diet restrictions. Being downtown, parking can be a bit of an issue, but the experience is worth the trouble. Also, if visiting during peak times, reservations should be considered.“
“The food was incredible. Absolutely on point with flavor for the appetizer, salad, carbonara, and cocktails. Couldn't have asked for better. The only thing that dampened the experience (which is nothing the restaurant can control) was the table of adults (large group) behind us. We were out for our anniversary and naturally just wanted relaxed and chill vibe. The adults w the large group proceeded to get heavily intoxicated and there was a lady cackling the whole time. Now I'm first to say, have your fun. But not so obnoxiously that it disturbs others in a small space. Maybe the restaurant could switch the seating some to house larger parties a little bit away from couples. Just glad the food and service was on point. It made up for the annoyance.“
