Junah named one of the New York Times' best U.S. restaurants
Junah , a celebrated fine-dining establishment in Salt Lake City, made it on the New York Times' annual list of the 50 best restaurants in the U.S. State of play: The restaurant in the trendy Central Ninth neighborhood is the only Beehive State eatery mentioned. Catch up quick: It was launched last year by restaurateurs Felipe Oliveira and Hiro Tagai and it specializes in itameshi, a blend of Japanese and Italian cuisines that originated in Japan. Junah was named a James Beard Award semifinalist for best new restaurant earlier this year. Between the lines: Oliveira and Tagai are behind the ramen restaurant Koyoté , which recently secured a Michelin recommendation in the new American Southwest Guide . What they're saying: The Times highlighted the restaurant's pork and beef ravioli-shaped gyoza, a tuna tartare special and a sake-cured honeydew melon dessert. Flashback: Cosmica, an Italian diner in the same neighborhood, was the only Utah restaurant included in last year's buzzy list , prompting weeks-long waits for a reservation.

Brownstone 22 is Comin’ In Hot
“I wanted a slutty burger on the menu,” executive chef Travis Herbert told me at the much-awaited Brownstone 22 soft launch in February. I nodded in agreement, clutching said voluptuous burger and waiting not-so-patiently until he left so I could lick the uni cheese sauce and caviar off my fingers. He elaborated on Brownstone 22’s concept: “We’ve got great seafood. Fantastic cocktails. And just look at this place.”

Strada Cucina Italiana, the fast-casual pasta counter that opened on Broadway in downtown Salt Lake City, offers a full dinner service alongside its daily lineup, turning the same storefront into two different restaurants depending on the hour.

Utah's first Sweetgreen opens in Sugar House
Utah's first Sweetgreen opened in Sugar House this week, offering customizable salads and bowls. Context: The popular restaurant chain is in over 20 states, but it hasn't come to Utah until now. "It's probably one of the most requested cities," c0-founder Nicolas Jammet told KSL about why the chain is expanding in Salt Lake City. "A lot of our existing customers that know us move here." 💭 My thought bubble: I'm not the type of person who thinks a meal needs a "crunchy, leafy green," but I knew I had to go after my California friends sang its praises. What I tried: I enjoyed the maple-glazed salmon plate over a bed of rice, napa cabbage, sweet potatoes and roasted Brussels sprouts. I swapped the garlic aioli for the green goddess ranch. It was tasty, and I appreciated that it had around 31 grams of protein, keeping me full for the rest of the evening. The bottom line: Sweetgreen is a great option if you need a healthy meal in a pinch. Hours: Sweetgreen is open daily from 10am-10pm.
