    It's been a bit since we last came here for brunch, and they've removed some items from their brunch menu. They used to have a burrito of the day and biscuits and gravy, which my husband loved and was excited to eat again, but he was disappointed to find they've taken it off the menu. I ordered their special of the day, which was bread pudding French toast, and it was pretty good!! My husband ended up ordering the huevos pericos. He liked it, but wasn't fully satisfied since he really wanted the biscuits and gravy. Our waiter Carlos was great! He had a positive attitude and made us laugh, he totally made our experience great.

    Love this place! If only it weren't so expensive so I could go more often, haha. We went for our anniversary tonight, and had a lovely experience. We loved the sausage soup and beet salad! So unique and flavorful. For the main entree, the gnocchi and winter pasta were also a hit. Hard to top the soup and salad though! To top it all off, the pumpkin pie panna cotta was amazing. They included it free of charge, as an anniversary gift. What a nice surprise! Great service, great food, great time.

    Came here with my friends for brunch and it did not disappoint! We ordered most of the menu haha. Honestly their coffee was really good. The place was big but had different rooms so felt pretty casual for groups. All of the meals we got were delicious, did not expect pulled salmon for the lox. The potato side dishes were a little weird. I would DEF recommend the breakfast sandwich it will cure ur hangover. Would come here again!

    Baked ricotta - yum!

    This meal was a fitting end to a successful business trip - and it was a tasty finale, indeed! We had a tequila-based drink called "on a Tuesday" that was the perfect compliment. Our appetizer was the surprising, addictive baked ricotta with fig and guanciale compote - soooo good! We followed that with a sublime bolognese - creamy and perfectly balanced. No room for dessert - sadly! Superb service made for a truly special evening!

    There were certainly things I liked about Block when we visited yesterday, but overall, it seems a bit overpriced for what we received. This restaurant is fairly cozy bordering on cramped. My mother-in-law reserved dinner for a large group for my father-in-law's birthday, and our table was a bit crowded. I ordered the gnocchi. It was delicious, with lots of short rib--but, for some reason, very little gnocchi. I enjoyed the sourdough bread and the chocolate potted cream (which we had to order without the whipped cream as it has alcohol--recommend offering the option of regular whipped cream here in Utah). We also ordered the charcuterie, which looked delicious but which I was unable to try for medical reasons. At the rather expensive price point, the service could really use a boost. We went long periods of time without seeing our server, and she pushed my father-in-law into ordering a dessert since it was, supposedly, free. (It was not free; it came up on the bill.) All in all, a bit disappointing.

    The Block is a lovely farm to table restaurant on university avenue in provo. It is refreshingly unexpected for being in a strip mall. It is a bit brightly lit for a date night restaurant, but the brick wall and open kitchen are very pretty. We started with the charcuterie board, which I wouldn't recommend. None of us particularly loved their choice of cheeses and accoutrements, however the prosciutto and nuts were our favorite part. The gnocchi was very good, I'd highly recommend it. The only complaint with it was the sauce was very thin and was served with a fork. I would return and would recommend.

    English muffin

    Went to the Block Restaurant for brunch on Sunday. Service was great but a large error in their eggs Benedict. The English muffin was so burned in the bottom that one needed a steak knife to enable cutting the muffin. The Hollandaise sauce was great and the egg was cooked to perfection. The muffin was so hard the table knife would not cut it.

    So fun to walk into a weird pillared building and enter a fancy restaurant. The service is kind and accommodating and the food is always unique and delicious!

    Block toast
    Elsie W.

    Came here tonight to celebrate Valentine's Day and was happy to find another delicious more upscale restaurant in utah county! Our server made some great recommendations which really helped us enjoy our meal. She recommended the block toast for our appetizer - and I'll be honest, I was SUPER apprehensive. I didn't know exactly what to expect. But it was my favorite bite of the night! Just enough heat, the apple jam wasn't too sweet, bacon added just enough saltiness. It was well balanced. Would've loved the piece of sourdough to be toasted on both sides but other wise a pretty impeccable dish. The wedge was good! Nothing to write home about but yummy. The spring trout was great. I was nervous the chorizo tomato jam was going to overpower everything else- which I think it could've, but I balanced my spoonfuls well. The gnocchi were light and fluffy. Loved the au jus it was set in. The chocolate cake had a ganache on top, a coffee crème anglaise, rum whipped cream and an almond crunch on top. It needed every component but was tasty. Though it wasn't too sweet (I'm not a fan of overly sweet desserts). I would've loved some finishing salt on top just to balance everything out. My biggest qualm with block, is their chairs. You know that nail on a chalkboard sound? Think that in chair form. Very jarring. The chairs need some felt or something underneath them to help them slide smoother and more quiet :)

    Surprise! We were shocked with how good the food was and no wait on a Saturday morning. Staff was quick for seating and recommendations were great. Untraditional I got the burger for breakfast and my spouse got the eggs Benedict (sliced ham ) insert drool here, and a side of the biscuits and gravy Flavor was off the chain here, we literally never drove down to Provo but talk about driving back down just for blocks

When we arrived and sat down, we were greeted by Joe telling us that "House rules, you're not allowed to order the same item". Lol. Love that guy! We both ordered Denver omelets, one without onions,extra mushrooms, French toast, and grits and one without mushrooms, hash browns, and pancakes. First off, the pancakes were amazing! They're light, had crispy edges, and had a wonderful flavor. But the best thing was it was in the shape of little donuts, which was a nice surprise. Our entrees came but were somehow got switched. We didn't realize it at first but both were still good. Unfortunately, my wife put Chalula on hers and I put Tobasco on mine and we don't like each other's choice of condiments. The other unfortunate thing was that I had an eggshell in my omelet. Even though we had these misfortunes you can't hide the flavor of these dishes and they certainly don't skimp on toppings. My grits were too sweet today. If it's too sweet for me, it must've been really sweet. The only other criticism I saw was that they were filling the syrup bottles from large Log Cabin jugs. They also were using Idahoan shredded potatoes from a large carton. I can understand the potatoes but how great would it be to have freshly made syrup. Still a great experience and they are still one of the best breakfast places on the state.

I recommend joining the waitlist in advance. It's tough to choose from such a wide range of delicious options, but my go-to pick is always the Mixed Berry Dutch Baby, Baby! The berry syrup and cream cheese topping set it apart from other breakfast places. We also had the Classic Breakfast Special, with crispy bacon cut thick to perfection. The interior is one of the most distinctive things about the place. Nearly all the Art Deco furnishings, the booths, mahogany paneling, black glass counter, and light fixtures, were salvaged from Lamb's Grill, a Salt Lake City restaurant that had operated since 1919 before closing in 2017. Eating here feels a bit like dining inside a piece of Utah history. The service is usually excellent, and you can tell they take the motto behind their name seriously: "True service is true religion." This visit, our waitress did seem in a rush to turn the table, but the quality of the food made it easy to overlook. Worth noting: they run a Second Chances charity that supports people in recovery from addiction, those reintegrating into society after incarceration, and folks rebuilding after financial hardship or other life challenges. It's a meaningful mission, and it's part of what makes this place feel different from your average breakfast spot.

When I reminded them that they are in violation of the Americans With Disabilities Act, the manager, Mirta Solis just shrugged and said that's the policy. Now, if it were a crowded restaurant I could definitely understand them, offering me a seat on the patio. However, it is 50°, I'm dressed in shorts and a T-shirt, and I would be uncomfortably chilly having to sit outside. Regardless of my comfort, this is still of course, a violation of the Americans With Disabilities Act. Service dog handlers beware, this is not a restaurant in compliance with the ADA. I will be filing a complaint with the department of justice, if this happens to you, I highly recommend you do the same.

We came because we wanted gourmet burgers. Turns out that their two burgers were bison burger. No thanks. No matter. My friend and I had the Traditional Navajo Taco(s) and his wife had the Sheep's Steak Salad. Everything was delicious. I put the "s" in parentheses because the menu is in plural but it really is just one taco. The Navajo Taco description from their website: Our Navajo tacos are a true taste of tradition--crispy, fluffy fry bread tacos topped with flavorful ingredients, served alongside cilantro-lime rice and pinto beans. Whether you're searching for Indian tacos near you, Navajo food, or the best tacos in Provo, this dish hits the spot. Find out why so many call this the top Navajo taco at one of the most authentic Navajo restaurants around. Also known as Navaho tacos, it's a must-try comfort food. It was excellent. The fry bread was nice and spongy and the toppings were flavorful. The refried beans and the rice were also excellent. Not just good, but excellent. She really enjoyed her steak salad as well. All in all a really good meal, didn't even miss the gourmet burgers. So yes, you better make a reservation. And this was a Thursday night. 5* = A top favorite. Mind-blowing good. I will definitely return and I will go out of my way to go here. Worth every dime of my money. 4* = Outstanding. Top-tier. Some elements not quite as good as it gets, but it still is worthy of my regular business. 3* = Good experience. I might do repeat business if it is convenient, the only option, the only one in its category, or on a whim, but would not be among the first thing to come to mind. Would definitely recommend you trying it to get your own take on it. 2* = Not so good. Would not recommend at all. Waste of money. 1* = How are they still in business? Stay away at all costs!
