    Dani S.

    My mother in law was wanting Italian for dinner. There were a few options by us that was close to the U of U hospital. I had spent the whole day at the hospital and was starving. 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.

    Clam chowder
    Jennifer M.

    Food is A- okay. Pasta is cooked al dente, which is a bit chewy for my liking. I got the mussels and clam pasta in white wine garlic sauce and garlic bread, which was descent. Six mussels didn't open, so I didn't bother. Clam chowder wasn't bad and the Cesar salad I'd say pass on it. -Same with the garlic bread if you order it separately. Parking was a breeze and service was fair.

    Delicious, yummy and service was amazing. Great atmosphere, easy listening. I will be back

    Found this restaurant while visiting Salt Lake and I recommend it 100%! Food was amazing, everything tasted delicious, home made feel and the portions are great!! The service was very good as well and the ambiance! If you are looking for Italian food, definitely choose this restaurant, you won't be disappointed! Ps: pics of the food was after eating some, oops!

    Garlic Bread
    Katie W.

    This is the second time I've been here, and it is just as amazing as the first time. I tried the chicken Parmesan, and it is the best chicken Parm I've ever had in my entire life. The chicken is juicy, and if you get a side order of Alfredo sauce to mix in with the marinara, you will have the most perfect flavored sauce in this world. All of the side vegetables are delicious and large enough to share with others. The grilled garlic bread is to die for! The service is amazing, and our server was so sweet and so fun to talk with. The ambience looks casual, but it's not casual at all. You can work any type of clothing, and they have tables to accommodate parties of every size.

    Ricotta Toast (with Gfree bread!)
    Kimberly B.

    This was my second visit to this cute little Sugar House restaurant and both times service and food were excellent. I highly recommend taking your time and having a drink and appetizer before your meal. We love the olives and pickled vegetables with focaccia and this time we also tried the Ricotta Toast (with Gfree bread!!) and I honestly could of eaten two orders of that alone! My hubs tried the Asparagus and Pea Rissoto and while good, a little too lemony for his tastes. I had their slow cooked beef and pork bolognese for the second time and it was delicious. We will be back over and over.

    Special filled pasta
    Vanessa W.

    Had a reservation on a Saturday evening before an event at Kingsbury hall. It did get pretty busy so I would recommend a resy for sure. This restaurant has its own small parking lot but that's a win. There is even ADA parking and the bathroom is ADA accessible. It's small and quaint and can get a little loud but overall a nice spot. Our server was fine, and they have food runners. Now to the meal. Everyone I was with enjoyed their meals, I had the special filled pasta and it was tasty and filling. It had a beef and pork filling in a simple brown butter sauce. I would definitely go back!

    What a great experience! The food was phenomenal!! We had visited this restaurant a year ago and the food was good then but this past experience really was top notch! The service was amazing and the staff were so accommodating through our time there. Always a great time and the restaurant is super clean! Can't recommend it enough! Go right now!!

    Cioppino with spaghetti and caprese pasta. Absolutely fantastic! Everything at Bartolos is great, food and service never disappoint.

    Amazing food and service! Never disappoints, great place for our date nights. Highly recommend.

    Marinated Olives & Pickled Veggies and Grilled Garlic Bread

    We stopped in here for a casual dinner for the first night of vacation. We were quickly seated and our waitress was very attentive and helpful. We got the pickled vegetables and garlic bread for appetizers and the lasagna and mushroom bucatini for entrees. Everything was amazing and portion sizes were large for the entrees. If we were going to be in town longer we would definitely go back.

    Blueberry pancake.  Perfect and not too sweet
    Maren B.

    We just enjoyed a fantastic brunch at Bartolos. I'm surprised there wasn't a line out the door, as everything was so delicious and service was great. We started with a Moka pot of Lavazza coffee, served in these adorable mini coffee mugs and soaked in the calm and upscale atmosphere while trying to decide on what sounded like several excellent options. After a long while, we finally settled on the chorizo biscuits and gravy and the egg white frittata. But I just also HAD to try the blueberry pancake, too. RIP my waistline. I think it's a great sign when your food takes some time and doesn't magically appear 5 minutes after you ordered it. That is exactly what we got here. Perfectly prepared, high quality food. The potato wedges my SO subbed for the roasted veg that came with the biscuits and chorizo gravy were quite possibly the best I have ever tasted. Perfectly crisp on the outside, soft and pillowy on the inside with plenty of salt. I enjoyed the egg white frittata, which is best if you're looking for something light, but the blueberry pancake was a standout. It had an excellent texture and the toppings were a perfect compliment. A little indulgent without being too sweet or too rich. We were so impressed, Bartolo's is now our go to brunch spot. Order a Moka of coffee, sit back and enjoy.

    Chicken Fettuccine Alfredo
    Fonzy P.

    I ordered food to be delivered and was incredible disappointed. I got a side of the "roasted" broccoli, it tasted so watery and was cold. It was clearly from a frozen bag. It actually tasted worse than the frozen bags you can buy from wal mart. The pasta was ok. Not very flavorful but just alright. The cheesecake was weirdly warm but was mediocre as well but was a good portion. Super disappointed considering how expensive this place is. It was $10 just for a side of broccoli.

We noticed it when we drove in late Friday afternoon and made reservations same day for their patio. We got some free street parking and when we arrived we were greater and promptly seated.

The food was absolutely heavenly from start to finish, and I'm still dreaming about it. I even packed up my dessert to enjoy later, and Ben thoughtfully included instructions on the container for the best way to enjoy it. It's those little details that make such a lasting impression. Our server, Ben, was truly exceptional. He took the time to explain every special in detail, made us feel like we were longtime friends, and struck the perfect balance of being attentive without ever hovering. We were dining with our toddler, and he brought over crackers just in case our little one wanted a snack. That level of thoughtfulness speaks volumes. The restaurant had technically closed, but Ben never once made us feel rushed. Instead, he let us relax, enjoy the beautiful patio, and savor every moment of our meal. Genuine hospitality like that is so rare. Everything about our experience was outstanding, from the incredible service to the unforgettable food. If we ever find ourselves back in Salt Lake City, Caffé Molise will be our first stop without hesitation. Thank you, Ben, and the entire Caffé Molise team, for making our visit so special!

It's a beautiful space, especially when it's still light outside and the evening sun comes in through the windows. Our server Jordan was excellent. Knowledgeable and efficient. They give you a TON of complementary things. Bruschetta to start. A massive bread basket, which is great for dipping into the anchovy garlic dipping sauce and all sorts of other sauces throughout the evening. And biscotti and a little cup of hot chocolate for dessert. We did not love the pasta sampler we ordered, though. It certainly wasn't bad, but all the pasta was overcooked IMO. I got the Salsiccia e Mare for my entree, and it was fabulous. Essentially a cioppino, but with sausage on a bit of spinach in the middle. The seafood was clams, muscles, calamari, and scallops. My wife had the Pollo della Casa, which was super tasty, but, as with the pasta, we thought the risotto was really overcooked. Had almost no consistency at all. Almost like creamy grits. And the famous lemon gelato dessert at the end was super. It was 28 bucks - ouch - but it was massive. Very lemony, and served on a bit of fresh Utah peaches. Prepared tableside, which was fun. I didn't love the honey they drizzled all over it, but my wife sure did. All in all, a really fun evening and a very solid restaurant. We'll go again.

There were two options and we chose the one with shrimp on romaine, burrata caprese, and melon with prosciutto. Then we shared the pasta sampler (which has a much cooler name that I can't recall because I don't speak Italian!). I was never a big fan of gnocchi but it was fantastic, served in a spicier tomato-based sauce. 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!

The food at Lupessa was nothing out of this world. The spicy rig could have been more spicy. The gnocchi was amazing!!

    An Extraordinary Evening of Italian Food and Wine -- A Truly Memorable Experience…read more I have been fortunate to enjoy some exceptional dining experiences over the years, and VENETO deserves a place among them. Dining alone this evening, I chose the seven-course fall tasting menu, From Forest to Table, accompanied by the wine pairing. What followed was an extraordinary journey through the flavors, traditions, and wines of Northern Italy. The evening began with a beautifully composed zucchini flower paired with a 2007 Bastianich Vespa Bianco. From there, each course built upon the last with remarkable creativity and balance. The mountain-inspired mushroom, potato, and pumpkin course, spirulina spaghetti with Monte Veronese cheese, and saffron risotto with wild boar were particular highlights. The venison fillet with aromatic mountain herbs was an exceptional conclusion to the savory courses. The wine pairings were equally impressive. Moving through Plozza's Nebbiolo wines from Valtellina--including Grumello, Sassella, Inferno, and a magnificent Sforzato--created a fascinating progression that elevated the entire meal. This was not simply wine served alongside food; it was a thoughtfully orchestrated experience in which each pairing had a purpose. What made the evening especially memorable was the attention to detail. The presentation was artistic without being pretentious, the atmosphere intimate and inviting, and the experience felt personal rather than scripted. VENETO understands something that distinguishes truly exceptional restaurants: fine dining is not simply about extraordinary food or remarkable wine. It is about creating an experience that stays with you long after the evening ends. An outstanding culinary experience, and a restaurant I would enthusiastically recommend to anyone who appreciates authentic Italian cuisine, thoughtful wine pairings, and the art of fine dining. I look forward to returning--and bringing my wife next time.
