Restaurant Reviews
Gastronomic SLC began as a restaurant review website. Over the years, this has changed. We no longer write traditional reviews of restaurants; instead, we prefer to highlight those spots that are really good, right now. You can find those stories in our Eat Here Now category.
Pho Green Papaya restaurant review
West Valley City is home to a vast array of worldy flavours. Pho Green Papaya adds another Vietnamese restaurant to an already burgeoning landscape of top notch eateries. How does this new kid on the block fare?
Kyoto restaurant review
While most may be huddled over their Udon and Sukiyaki in the cold winter months, we love sushi all year round. Join us on our most recent trip to the ever consistent Kyoto.
Bambara restaurant follow-up
A brief follow-up review covering a recent revisit to Bambara. The menu has seen a couple of new arrivals, naturally we had to give them a test drive.
Tandoor Indian Grill restaurant review
Tandoor Indian Grill breathes new life into the space formerly occupied by Bombay Express. Will this newcomer be as short lived as the previous tenant? Read more to find out the experience of our first visit.
ACME Burger Company restaurant review
Gourmet burgers come to Salt Lake City courtesy of ACME Burger Company and the talented Adam Kreisel. A well known pedigree and an interesting concept combine. Read more and find out how well.
Sugarhouse Barbeque restaurant review
Reliable restaurants are not easy to find. Sugarhouse Barbeque is a stalwart of the Salt Lake dining scene, so surely something is being done right here? Read more to find out exactly what that is.
Indochine Vietnamese Bistro restaurant review
Indochine is now three months into it’s tenure; things seem to be panning out for this new venture. On a recent Thursday outing, we had the standard worries about visiting a new restaurant. Read more to see if these were justified.
Mad greek restaurant take out review
Fast food. The mere mention can send shivers down the spine of many a foodie. On a lazy weekend night we try out Mad Greek; can fast food also be good food? We find out.
Pine restaurant review
Pine is the most recent of Greg Neville’s (owner/chef) Salt Lake City restaurants; the last being the continually popular Lugano. After reading many positive reviews of Pine, we decided to give the place a whirl this past Saturday evening. Read on to find out how the night fared.
MacCool’s restaurant review
A cold autumn evening and in need of a quick bite. We choose Maccools as the solution to our woes. See how this Irish themed restaurant stacks up in our latest review.

Four years in business, Yamasaki must be doing something right. We find out exactly what those things are on our recent visit. Check out the latest restaurant review.
Bambara restaurant review
Before I write about our dinner at Bambara, I should confess it is one of my personal favorite restaurants here in Salt Lake City. When it comes to Bambara, I often wax lyrical to family and friends, but will try to remain as unbiased as possible here.

Mazza restaurant review
This weekend saw our fourth visit (in as many months I’d wager) to Mazza. Each visit has been to the newer 9th and 9th location. For as long as I can recall we have attempted to visit the original 15th and 15th Mazza location and failed. Reviews were consistently excellent and we love Middle-Eastern cuisine.
Lugano, Salt Lake City
I have tried as many places as possible from the chain food fare of Johnny Carino’s through to long established independant Rino’s right on to the trendy hipness of Michelangelo’s in Sugarhouse. So far none has come close to the epicurean heights of back home.
Will Lugano be my Italian goto place in SLC?
Perfect rosemary roasted potatoes
I’ve tasted spuds ranging from too hard, not crispy enough, too oily all the way through to totally flavourless. After a few years of hard work (and spending too much in restaurants), I think I have perfected the art of roasting spuds.
Ladies and gents, I give you perfect rosemary roasted potatoes!
Metropolitan, Salt Lake City
Evening restaurant review.
A couple of Saturdays ago I got my Christmast present from Wen – a trip to Metropolitan. Often lauded as one of SLC’s premier dining locations we have been meaning to go for quite some time.
