- JJeremyUtah •1 review5.0Dined 1 day agoMy wife and I went to Ruth's Chris for a belated Anniversary dinner. This was our first time, and we enjoyed the experience quite a lot. We had the Prime Time menu (with a few upgrades) and enjoyed everything we ordered. The Lobster bisque was very good, and my wife enjoyed her French onion soup. We both had filets, and they were cooked exactly as we had ordered them. Don't get the mashed potatoes-go for the sweet potato pie. It's amazing! I also had the caramelized banana creme pie, and it was probably the best banana creme pie I've ever had!More infoRuth's Chris Steak House - Salt Lake CityPrice: Very Expensive• Steakhouse• Salt Lake City•4.9
- KKarenWashington, D.C. Area •3 reviews5.0Dined 2 days agoOur server, Josh, was excellent! The food was fantastic. We went with two of the specials, scallops for appetizer and short rib for main. The Arista main was delicious! The bruschetta appetizer was over the top and could have been the meal. The staff was very attentive. We look forward to returning soon.More infoCaffe MolisePrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.7
- PPhebeUtah •1 review5.0Dined 4 days agoAbsolutely amazing food, I had told them I was in culinary school and wanting to learn about higher end dining and they let me walk through the kitchen and talk to the chefs. All of the staff was super friendly and informative, the ambience was wonderful and the food was to die for. My mother is rather tentative with new foods but she loved the tartar! To the point she asked for the recipe.More infoBambaraPrice: Very Expensive• Modern European• Downtown•4.3

Favorite dishes are the trout and cauliflower.More infoEvaPrice: Expensive• Tapas / Small Plates• Salt Lake City•4.9
Discover Downtown
Cradled by the Wasatch Mountains to the east and north, Salt Lake City offers a vibrant nightlife and ample opportunities to ski, hike, bike, explore canyons and enjoy annual festivals. Eat heartily to keep up your energy for all these activities by making your way downtown to sample American classics, bar-and-grill favorites, vegetarian dishes and culinary offerings from all corners of the globe. Treat yourself to high-end Japanese or Mexican cuisine or grab a few scoops of Aggie blue mint ice cream after seeing a show. Misconceptions abound about Utah's liquor laws; in reality, it's easy to enjoy a drink in Salt Lake City as more microbreweries and independent bars are opening all the time. Public transportation is available downtown if you don't want to deal with parking.
