This month, a little more than twenty or so reviews of restaurants, food trucks, cafes and more that you need to know about around town. Particularly hot right now? Murray’s Fatboy Phillies seems to be the word on everyone’s lips, or should that be cheesesteaks in bellies.
This modest newcomer on State Street is serving up some hefty looking cheesesteak sandwiches and most recently doubled down on their authenticity claims by importing authentic Amoroso rolls from back East. Lets just not get started on the American vs Whizz vs provolone debate…

Hi, I’m Stuart, nice to meet you! I’m the founder, writer and wrangler at Gastronomic SLC; I’m also a former restaurant critic of more than five years, working for the Salt Lake Tribune. I’ve worked extensively with multiple local publications from Visit Salt Lake to Salt Lake Magazine, not least helped to consult on national TV shows.
I’m a multiple-award winning journalist and have covered the Utah dining scene for the better part of fifteen years. I’m largely fueled by a critical obsession with rice, alliteration and the use of big words I don’t understand. What they’re saying about me: “Not inaccurate”, “I thought he was older”, “I don’t share his feelings”. Want to know more? This is why I am the way I am.
