“If you're looking for a personable, flexible caterer with food that matches the high-quality service, Kafe Mamai should be your choice! Abudu is a top-notch caterer who goes above and beyond to ensure your event is a success. We built a personal relationship, which is rare among catering companies. The food is authentic and hand-crafted, including the spice mixes. I recently had grilled j*** chicken, rice & beans, and fried plantains at my event, and everyone raved about the plantains!“

“My favorite boba place in Utah so far. I grew up in Houston where I personally believe has the best boba so when I moved to Utah, I sought out to find a good place for it. I believe that this is that place. Their vanilla coffee smoothie makes me nostalgic of some of the boba back home. The tapioca is perfectly chewy and sweet. Their drinks are tasty. I highly recommend!“

“I loved the matcha!! The food was really good 😊“

“Found this little gem from a simple Google search and I’m already addicted! My friend and I enjoyed breakfast there and we’re already planning a return trip. Who cares that it’s an hour away from home, it’s worth the drive! I had the granola pancake (🤤) and my friend had the strawberry french toast special (equally delicious). We also took home cinnamon and raspberry rolls (to die for). Give this place a try, you’ll be glad you did!“

“Excellent customer service with an awesome selection of tea and food. I love the atmosphere and the fact that the are accepting of everyone, especially the LGBTQ+ Community.“

“A super cozy breakfast/brunch spot, especially if you love an al fresco experience. The brûlée French toast was decadent without being overly sweet, and we love their Pioneer breakfast deal for variety. Everything we’ve tried here has been great & the food comes out relatively quick for how busy it gets!“

“great food and great staff.“

“I love this place. I remember coming here with my great grandpa when I was a kid. Their breakfast is super amazing and although it's a very busy place the vibe is still pretty chill. I'm always reminded of my great grandpa when I come here. Waitress was really nice, and punctual.“

“Great cream of asparagus and breakfast Bagels 🥯“

“Grilled Cheese sandwich and Ham sandwich (yummiest tiny pickles) and the Lemon Sorbetto. That's what we tried so far...we'll be back!!! That's just the food. Love the cozy charm and cheerful customer service as well.“

“I absolutely LOVE Rise By Good Day! Moving here frrom a town in IL just north of Chicago, I never expected to find quality kielbasa in UT... but low and behold, Rise By Good Day has saved my polish cravings and kept my stomach happy. You have to get the Weselna Kielbasa. It is my absolute favorite. You also cannot go wrong with pierogies either. Or the poppy seed bread. Or the polish apple pie. I also love trying all the other polish foods and snacks. The ketchup is my new go to. Don't get me started on the Paczki. That's a delicacy of its own. Stop in, you wont be disappointed. The service is amazing. The owner is so friendly, as are her staff. I cannot recommend this place enough. I am looking forward to them opening the new location in West Jordan and trying their pierogi pizza and kielbasa pizza. Mmm!!“

12/10 small business. The owners and staff are fantastic and deserve all the good things.“

“I cannot say enough good things about this place. The owners and workers are incredibly kind, the food and drinks are FABULOUS and the atmosphere is so cozy and unique compared to the other coffee shops in Salt Lake. Genuinely one of the best lattes we’ve had in the area and you have to try the lemon Thai tea!“

“Sharon's is a classic, comfort oriented breakfast and lunch spot. Reasonably priced, quick service, reliably delicious. I recommend it to anyone in Holladay looking for a casual and no-fuss bite to eat. Traditional American breakfast menu, thoughtful dietary and vegetarian options, really a good call from every aspect.

Kid-friendliness: Very kid friendly“

Parking: It's located above a trucking parts and service counter so parking is limited.“

“This new place is fantastic! I’ve visited a few times and have always been delighted with their coffee. The sound system is also impressive, creating a great atmosphere. The curated menu is another highlight. If you’re looking to catch up with a friend, grab a spot by the window!

Just remember to bring your ID!“

“Sugar Space is so great! It was 1.5 miles from the Koa where I was staying and I wasn’t sure if it was worth the walk, it’s got a great little coffee shop/ cafe, the food and drinks are nice, Edgar the barista is sooooo sweet and accommodating and the owners are really great. They have good speed internet to get some work done and even a play area for kids. The owners were so kind and welcoming! It was the best part of my visit to Salt Lake!“

“Im from Canada and everytime i travel, I try to get some BBQ. I've tried many places all around the Country and Salt City BBQ is by far the best BBQ in Utah. We had the lean and fatty brisket, OMG, the fatty had sooooo much flavor and the lean did not disappoint either. The turkey had an amazing smokey flavor and so tender. The BBQ sauce had a very nice sweet flavor but not over bearing on the sweet, just perfect. And the corn bread, OMG the best corn bread I've ever had, so fluffy and melt in your mouth. The owner was amazing and his staff as well. My buddy had the sausage and said it was the perfect blend of spices and cheese. The pork belly was so tender you don't even need teeth it'll just melt in your mouth. Give this place a try...IT WILL NOT DISAPPOINT!!!!“

“The baristas are consistently kind and efficient. While the atmosphere can fluctuate with the law building’s traffic, it remains a convenient spot for students. My favorites are the mocha and caramel macchiato, but all drinks—hot or iced—are excellent. Great for a quick caffeine boost or a light bite like a pastry or sandwich.“

“as a diabetic it helps me.“

Can’t really go wrong with the grill- breakfast burritos, burgers, Philly cheesesteaks, grilled BLT. I’ll usually grab food from here before I head home from work- cheap and good food!“

“locally owned owners are awesome people good coffee good price. owner brought me gas when I ran out on the freeway 6 or 7 years ago. will be a lifelong customer because of their willingness to help me“

“The food was lovely, but even better the owner came out and said hi to us! We later told them we were going to see NIN, he came back and started playing nine inch nails, danced with us and took photos! So awsome! Would visit again if I was local!“

“Mmmm I didn’t know I loved it until I tried it. ❤️“

“It was delicious!!!! Cute and quaint atmosphere. Old house changed into a bakery 🧁“

“I live in Colorado and never heard of Alpha Coffee. I visited Salt Lake City, and friend recommended we meet at the downtown location. I ordered an "Aztec" and it was great. Something different, new and tasty for me. I liked the drink, the vibe and the servers ... the whole experience was great! I look forward to my next visit to SLC. I'll stop at Alpha again - to try the Poly! :)“
