    Grandpa dessert - get it, best!!
    Dawn K.

    Luigi!! What a treat to have such an amazing waiter along side one of the best Italian meals we've had in Utah! The quality of food is unmatched. We treated our family to a back to school dinner out. Here's what we ordered; But first the house bread, baguette, focaccia, with olive oil and aged balsamic dip, and tomato puree and ricotta sauce - all of them, so good! Sautéed mussels in a tomato garlic wine sauce with charred toasted bread. Delicious, all of us loved it! We ordered a few things off the menu and shared them all. Signature carbonara- made table side, absolutely perfect, creamy, flavorful with little bits of pancetta, you can't go wrong with this dish. Tagliolini - seafood pasta, so flavorful, so yummy, my youngest son was obsessed with this pasta. Mushroom ravioli- so light, so fluffy pasta, delicious little packets of love! Agnolotti - filled with Brie, prosciutto, and walnuts, my personal fav pasta dish, so creamy and rich and sweet with that touch of honey, loved it!! Salmon- yes please! Perfectly cooked and seasoned and melt in your mouth delicious. Desserts- lemon sorbet, all my boys loved this, I was so surprised!! Olive oil cake, perfect, moist, rich, so good! Pistachio cheesecake- wonderful, not too dense and rich like some cheesecake, it was light and fluffy and so yummy! The grandpa, with cream and chocolate was my personal fav, sweet and creamy with a touch of chocolate- hello! We will absolutely be back to try the rest of the menu!!

    Visited for a work dinner with a large group and had nothing but a great experience. We had a large group 20 or so of us. We had a set menu due to the larger group and everything was amazing. The stand outs for me were the cocktails, carbonara and branzino saltimbocca were so good. The cheese wheel at your table is also a fun addition to dinner Overall I felt the service was great, especially given the large party. And it was a really nice atmosphere.

    This was one of the best meals I've had in Utah, not to mention the best Italian I've had. We had an absolutely magical night at Antica Sicilia. First of all, major props to our server Catherine (and our food runner Mason). Catherine was friendly, funny, and knowledgeable about every part of the menu. She made a great evening even better. We came for my birthday, and we were not disappointed. I've lived in Italy and I'm a little picky about Italian food, and this was a really great meal. We started with 2 appetizers: Arancini and the charcuterie board. Both were fantastic. The Arancini were perfectly crispy, with perfectly cooked risotto and slow-cooked meat sauce inside. It was served on a ladle of tomato sauce. The charcuterie board had 2 different types of prosciutto, mortadella, regular and spicy salami, a sliced cheese and 2 types of Gorgonzola. We order charcuterie a lot of places, and we usually come away thinking it was a little overpriced. This plate was stellar, with high-quality ingredients throughout. Absolutely worth the price. The free bread basket that came early to the table was also delicious. The spoonful of red pepper pesto that came with the bread was so good I'd eat it on cake. We had to force ourselves to stop eating the appetizers and bread so we would have room for the pasta course. The pastas did not disappoint. We of course had to order the spaghetti carbonara, since we knew the tableside preparation was not to be missed. We also ordered the pacchero with pancetta and burrata. Both pastas were impeccably cooked and utterly delicious. Both had a creamy sauce with crispy pancetta, which really added flavor and texture to each dish. Throughout the meal we were checked on (but not too often), and we were never rushed or made to feel anything less than welcome and appreciated. I want to give a final and second shoutout to our server Catherine. If every server were as close to perfection as Catherine, then every meal would be perfect. Catherine is an amazing asset to Antica Sicilia. Thank you for a perfect birthday dinner - we will be back next year, if not sooner!

    Staff so attentive and gave great recommendations. The Italian beer and pistachio spritz were both great and unique. Bread served first with spreads and oil/balsamic delish. Arancini had great flavor and decent portion. Carbonara and pistachio pasta both so flavorful and rich. Inside is white tablecloth and very much had Italian feel to it.

    If Italy had a love song, this restaurant would be it. From the moment we walked in, we felt so welcomed. The ambiance? Perfectly warm and welcoming, like a hug from Nonna. Now, let's talk about the star of the show: the carbonara. Oh. My. Goodness. Creamy, silky, cheesy, and just the right touch of magic--every bite felt like a celebration. It wasn't just pasta; it was an experience made at the table. If I could marry a dish, this would be it (don't tell my partner). The service? Impeccable. Our waiter treated us like a long-lost cousin, recommending the perfect the meal. Long story short: If you haven't eaten here, you're seriously missing out. Go for the carbonara; stay for the olive oil cake. We WILL be back!

    This dining experience was exceptional. The food was off the charts flavorful and the service may have even topped that. Our server Matteo was friendly and attentive. We started with the Bruschetta which was fresh and full of flavor, a lovely brightness about it. We felt compelled to try the carbonara which was rich and we loved the way they prepared it table side. We followed the pasta with the filet mignon with Gorgonzola which was cooked perfectly and the perfect 3rd course. It didn't look like a lot of food but we had to get our Tiramisu to go we were so full. The ambiance was cozy and if only I had not forgotten my license I would have probably stayed for a bit drinking a good bottle of wine. We will be back.

    When you land at the Salt Lake City airport and you're on a mission to carb-load your way to Park City, Antica Sicilia whispers sweet nothings to you in the form of a wheel of Parmesan. I mean... how do you say no to that? You don't. You just follow the cheese. Let's start with the good: the Pasta Carbonara was creamy and rich, like a Roman vacation in a bowl. But let's talk pancetta. Half of it was perfectly crispy and salty like pancetta dreams are made of. The other half? Giant chewy cubes that gave my jaw a workout. I didn't come here for CrossFit, I came for carbs. Then came the gnocchi--which sadly leaned more "weighted blanket" than "cloud-like pillow." I wanted to float into Italian heaven, but instead, I sank into a starchy reality. BUT THEN--Nonna's olive oil cake swooped in like an apron-wearing angel. Moist, tender, flavorful. It's like if lemon and love had a baby. Highlight of the meal, no contest. Now let's talk about the service. And Raul. Oh Raul. Sweet guy, very polite, but seemed like he was in a passionate, committed relationship with confusion. Our drinks sat there empty, just as parched as we were. We had to flag him down for a second cocktail like we were at a baseball game trying to catch a beer vendor. He also had trouble keeping our order straight, and I was tempted to just pass him a note with bullet points. Meanwhile, the kid working next to him? STAR. He was serving tables like he was auditioning for the next season of The Bear. Told the tale of Nonna's cake like it was Shakespeare. We were low-key jealous our table didn't get the main character energy. Final verdict: The food was solid, the cheese wheel had us at hello, and Nonna clearly knows her way around a cake pan. But next time, I might request to sit in that other server's section.

    First off, it's always a plus when there's a convenient parking lot--makes a big difference. Don't let the exterior fool you--the inside is beautiful and much more elevated than you'd expect. We highly recommend making a reservation. We came on a Thursday night and it was already packed! Our server, Cristina, was phenomenal--her warm personality and spot-on recommendations truly made the experience even better. The restaurant serves family-style and prepares dishes just the way you want. We tried all the recommended appetizers from the menu, and each one was a hit--but the standout was definitely the calamari. For the pasta, the cheese wheel is a must for the tableside show, but honestly, the other pastas were just as good--if not better. And the seafood stew, ciopino? To die for. Do not leave without ordering it! This place is a gem. Already planning my next visit.

    Polipo Don Pino
    Tinna Y.

    We went on a Thursday, and there was a live jazz band--loved it! Our waiter was super passionate and really knew the food, which is always a good sign. We all had to unbutton by the end because the food was that good. Starting with the bread, they brought out a bunch of different kinds, and the condiments came with olives, tomatoes (or was it red pepper?), and fresh sardines! This is where I made my first mistake... I ate two different types of bread. We ordered the Arancinette Alla Carne--definitely bigger than bite-sized! They were perfectly crispy on the outside, but the rice inside was so tender. The Fritters Di Pesce came in three adorable baskets. The shrimp was as crispy as crackers, and the fresh sardines were so flavorful. They were so good, we had to get a second round. The Polipo Don Pino was another massive portion. The octopus looked a little intense at first, with those big tentacles, but it was super tender and packed with flavor. Totally worth trying. Now for the main event: the signature Carbonara! So creamy, so rich, and the tableside 'show' makes it a must-order. You won't regret it! The Cioppino was loaded with seafood, and the fun pizza dough on top was the perfect touch. Sadly, I couldn't finish it because... lobster pasta showed up, it was the day's special, and my friend got so excited we had to try it. And you have to save room for dessert. Trust me. We had the Tiramisu, Olive Oil Cake from grandma's recipe, a chocolate cup, and cannoli. It was tough to pick a favorite, but 7 out of the 7 of us all agreed: the Tiramisu wins! The warm, light Olive Oil Cake was the perfect contrast. I could go on, but you really need to try this place for yourself. My only complaint? It's a bit dim and dark, if that even counts as a complaint, haha!

    Awesome food and atmosphere! The carbonara is fun and amazing! It was our 10 year! Service was excellent and very professional.

    Claudio was fantastic - we had a HUGE group of 16 people and they accommodated an early reservation to fit us in last minute. Between us all, we ordered almost everything on the menu. Salads made table side, customized off menu suggestions, never a dry glass, and great live music. No complaints - 5 out of 5 stars!

    The service and ambiance are bar none here. The servers wait on you hand and foot. The soft light cabin feel transports you another place. Fun, winter cocktails quench your thirst and are creative. The wine options fit any queen! Do order a lovely table side dish whatever that may be. You get food and a show!!! We had 3 table side dishes, the Caesar salad, carbonara pasta & the ribeye. The stunner was the ribeye, they catch the steak on fire and melt the truffle butter! We shared the mussels as an appetizer, lovely. The bread bowl was nice but make sure to also ask for olive oil and balsamic vinegar too. Our focaccia was left in the oven a wee too long and hard, but I am sure if you ask them they would replace it. Other than that we all had spectacular dishes. Our favs were the ribeye with the truffle butter, and sage and butternut ravioli. The desserts are sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. Do yourself a favor and order the Coppa Del Nonno, it was OMG good!!!

    Olive oil cake and tiramisú

    5 stars, 5 stars, 5 stars!!!!! I would give them infinite stars if I could. To start this is a quaint intimate restaurant. The owner is from Sicily and let me just say that it definitely shows. This might be my favorite Italian restaurant of all time! Our server was Claudio and I cannot say enough positive things about him! He was very knowledgeable, attentive, and a fun energy. He gave us in depth descriptions along with his recommendations of what to order. He continuously came back to refill our wine and make sure we were enjoying our food and time. I loved the slow pace of the restaurant as well. The service was exceptional but we never felt rushed. In fact we were encouraged to take our time and enjoy the wine and food. When you get sat they bring out bread with some toppings. I believe that it was roasted red pepper spread, a cheese with olives, and an anchovy. Once we finished our bread our table was cleaned off and entirely reset for dinner. I ordered the Ravioli Burro E Salvia which was a mozzarella ravioli with an amazing butter sage sauce. Claudio recommended that I add shaved truffle on top to enhance the flavors, so I did. This was my first time being at a restaurant that had really truffle mushrooms and I am so so glad that he recommended it because although it's an extra $35 for the truffle, it was so worth it! Truffle mushrooms are such a delicacy and to be able to enjoy the earthiness and succulence of the truffle with the butter sage pasta sauce was a highlight of my meal. My friend ordered the Filet with Gorgonzola sauce. I do not like steak typically but this was an amazing steak. We also ordered a bottle of the Vosca Chardonnay which was so yummy and buttery and smooth. Finally we ordered the tiramisú and olive oil cake for dessert. Both were recommended by the bartender Matteo and were amazing as to be expected I truly cannot say enough positive things about our experience. This is definitely a fine dining restaurant and the prices reflect that but as do the ingredients and quality of the food and evening! I highly highly recommend for anyone visiting or a local craving Italian. Thank you Claudio for your energy and making the dinner so enjoyable

I could have eaten my weight in meatballs by the time they released me. I did creep out the menu and didn't see meatballs as an option. I have been to other Italian joints that didn't list meatballs on their menu so I was hoping that this was the case. This joint is 10 minutes from the hospital in Sugar House which was nice. It was an easy drive to the venue. We made our way in and was instantly greeted. We got sat away from the door which was nice. It was cold and pouring rain so sitting next to the front door didn't sound fun. We looked over the menu after our server dropped off with our water. Everything on the menu looked delicious! I didn't see meatballs as an option so I wanted to ask my server if it was even an option. My mother in law ordered the rigatini bolognese. I got the salmon without the parmesan risotto subbed for extra veggies. I wanted some meatballs on the side but it wasn't an option. So, I was hoping that my meal was going to be enough food for me. My plate came out looking amazing! My salmon looked perfectly seared. My broccoli rabe and asparagus had beautiful char marks on it. It came with a bright, charred lemon on the side. I added the fresh lemon on my food and a little salt to taste. I was ready to dig in! The brocolli rabe and asparagus were cooked perfectly! They were both charry with a nice bite to it. I took a few bites of my salmon and it was fresh. After a couple bites, I did notice that it was not cooked all the way. With my new kidney, I have to be cautious with undercooked food. I also don't care for rare meat or fish so I would have asked for it to be recooked anyways. I didn't want to waste the veggies so I offered just to take the veggies off my plate and they could just reheat the salmon. They were so kind about it. My server gave me my original side of veggies off my plate. They were preparing a whole new plate of salmon and veggies for me. So while my new plate was being prepared, I polished off the vegetables. My second plate that came out was lovely. The fish was seared nicely again with another helping of vegetables. Again, I topped my food off with the juice from the charred lemon and some salt. I did notice that this second piece of salmon was a bit smaller than my original plate. It was good piece of seared salmon but there wasn't any real seasoning to it besides the lemon juice and salt I added. Overall, dinner was great and the service was nice. I appreciate that the chefs for remaking my plate. The venue is pretty and romantic. My mother in law and I had a great dinner here. The only thing that I would have liked was a little more flavor on my salmon. Other than that, it was a delicious meal that I needed after my long hospital stay.

The restaurant clearly aims for an elevated dining experience, and there's a lot to appreciate in the overall presentation and ambiance. That said, the experience landed more in the "good" than "exceptional" category for us. The dining room was noticeably loud, which made conversation a bit challenging at times. While the food was well presented, the pricing felt a little ambitious relative to the overall quality. Several dishes were extremely heavy on the Parmesan Reggiano--to the point that it overpowered some of the intended flavors rather than complementing them. The service team was kind and well-meaning, though some interactions felt slightly awkward rather than naturally polished. Overall, Matteo delivers a solid dining experience with a lively atmosphere, but at this price point, I was hoping for a bit more refinement and balance. Still a worthwhile visit, especially if you enjoy a vibrant Italian dining scene.

The flavor matched the beauty too--and the portions were good enough to take half home. My husband was incredibly happy with all the lobster in his pasta. We took a raspberry tiramisu home, which was also delicious. The bill came to $208 before tip, which matched the quality of the food and restaurant experience.

There was a spectacular butternut squash ravioli, spinach ravioli, and a spaghetti with an indescribably delicious cream sauce. Overall, that dish is NOT to be missed. We also had a special entree of beef tenderloin with mushrooms, shaved potatoes, and an oxtail sauce. We shared it because OMG food coma, which was a great call. We finished with the tiramisu *swoon* and the lemon gelato with lemon juice, local Utah honey, and sea salt sprinkles. I'm not a big lemon dessert fan and I wouldn't have normally ordered it (I had the tiramisu). The lemon gelato with honey had such a pleasantly unusual texture. The honey had the mouth feel of stringy cheese but the flavor of spring. The gelato was delicate and soft and the salt just amplified the experience. Zachary was our server. He's funny, extremely knowledgeable, and served each dish with an unforgettable flourish. I'm sure mine is just one more voice extolling the fabulousness of this restaurant, but it was a pleasure. In my work, I get to eat in many amazing restaurants. It sounds bold, but I think this was one of the best meals I've ever had. Excellent choice!

    This spot was highly recommended by a celebrity friend and I was excited to try it. I took a large…read moregroup of people here and drove 50 minutes to get here. Sadly it ended up being a terrible experience. Our waiter was curt and rude, distracted, condescending and kept disappearing on us for long periods of time. It just ruined the whole evening for us. I had hyped up the spot based on the recommendation and was embarrassed about the experience. The food was tainted by the service and I thought was too rich and oily. I did mention the bad service to the manager and they removed the mandatory gratuity given the larger party. It has been a few days since I was there and I am still miffed about how long we drove there and the horrible experience.
