    [[HIGHLIGHT]]Pretty cute vibe![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] [[HIGHLIGHT]]Overall this place is super cute.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] We went for brunch so the menu was relatively limited, the food wasn't super hot when it came out so I was a little disappointed it was kind of cold. The banana bread was a hit at our table. I do wish they had more coffee options for operating at brunch. Our server was friendly but everything was a little slow. If you're okay with a slower brunch service this is the place to go! Overall I liked it and would definitely come back and try their dinner service!

    Duck pasta with homemade burrata

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]This is a charming little space tucked in to 300 south.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] You might miss it but it's worth trying it out. The menu is delightfully as the space and the service is attentive but not annoying. We tried the funeral potato pave, a unique take on a classic Utah dish. Brussels sprouts were delicious and a must. For the mains we had, roasted chicken, duck gnocchi and the pappardelle. All tasty and different enough from what you think, that you should try it. Dessert was a cheesecake and butterscotch pudding. Definitely want to try their brunch menu, so I will be back. Make a reservation this place can fill up and parking in the back or on the street.

    Mushroom agnolotti

    Mostly great food, but heavy-handed on the salt. We enjoyed our dinner at Roux last night. Our waitress, Alex, was an absolute treat from the moment we arrived-- seriously a gem of a human being. Our group of 6 attempted to order everything on the small menu and almost succeeded. Standout dishes were the potato pavé, trout ceviche, apple pecan salad, and hanger steak. I tried everything except for the chicken and pappardelle pasta. My trout entree was nice, but the farro that came on top of it was extremely salty. I also wasn't super impressed with the presentation. While we're on the topic of salt, my wife had the mushroom agnolotti, which may have been the saltiest dish I've tried in years. It was nearly inedible. I told Alex how salty these dishes were and she was apologetic and said she would relay the message to the kitchen. I hope they were receptive to the feedback. We all thought the cocktails were good, along with the bread & butter. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant has a nice intimate vibe, fitting for a variety of occasions.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Will I plan a return visit? Probably not soon.

    Brussels sprouts- amazing
    Dawn K.

    [[HIGHLIGHT]]What a quaint and cozy little space with some flavorful, quality food.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The staff was so friendly and wonderful, it just took a long time for our food to come out. We actually came to try the burger, which they no longer serve during dinner, we were so bummed. We started with the Brussels sprouts and the potato pave. Brussels sprouts were amazing, the harissa spice gave them the perfect kick. The potato pave was so good, crispy outside, soft middle, au gratin on crack. Our table ordered many entrees to try a little of everything. Brown butter trout, trout was so good, but the faaro over powered the dish a little 5 spiced glazed chicken was delicious. Moist chicken, slightly crispy exterior, and the accompanying veggies were perfect. Hanger steak, was great, and the Demi glaze I could drink. They had a slow roasted pork special for that night, and everyone loved it! Papppardelle pasta with sausage was yummy, the thick pasta perfectly cooked. Local mushroom agnolotti- was our favorite pasta dish, rich, creamy, flavorful, incredible Potato gnocchi- excellent, so rich. I wish we had room for dessert, maybe next time, looks like we need to come back for lunch to get the burger.

    Gnocchi

    I was so pleasantly surprised with Roux, it's been a very long time since I've found a well done brunch spot in SLC and this is exactly what I've been hoping to find more of. Very well done food, potatoes and classic Benedict were good, gnocchi was great, though I feel like there could be more dynamic in the flavors -the sage really made the dish beautiful and we really enjoyed it. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Ambiance is perfect, lots of thought put into it and had one of our favorite waitresses in awhile so service was above and beyond.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I'm looking forward to coming back and trying dinner. We tried another spot the following weekend for brunch and wished we had of just gone back to Roux again lol. Thanks for putting in the thought, effort, and work to creating something beautiful for SLC. We'll definitely be back.

    This was hands down the best dinner I've ever had in Salt Lake. If I could give Roux more than 5 stars, I would! We came on a Friday night and we couldn't believe this place wasn't packed with people with a line out the door. Get your butts to Roux people! The bread and butter came out quickly and was absolutely delicious. We started with the funeral potato pave with a crispy potato on a bed of the most delicious sauce I've ever had. So delicious we begged for the recipe and ordered a second one. My partner got the burger and said it was the best burger he's ever had in his life. I got the mushroom agnolotti and it was incredible. We ordered extra bread to dip in our leftover cheese sauce. [[HIGHLIGHT]]There was indoor seating, and we chose to enjoy the night out on the patio, which was lovely.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Our server was absolutely incredible. I can't wait to come back and have already told so many people about this place. Thank you for an incredible experience!

    The food was amazing, and [[HIGHLIGHT]]the ambiance was fantastic.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was a little slow, however they checked on us constantly, and ensured we had plenty of water and bread while they worked on our meals. Will absolutely be back!

    Let me tell you... This food was some of the best food I've had in a very long time. I am a picky eater and when I sat down and saw this menu, I was super worried that I was not going to find anything to eat. There were spices that I didn't know, Sauces that I didn't know. But oh my goodness the food was so tasty. There were so many layers of seasoning. I had the chicken dish and the chicken was cooked to perfection. The Brussels sprouts and funeral potatoes were so good I could have eaten those for a meal only. Then the desserts?!?? I was so full but I had to keep eating!!! Everything we ate was absolutely delicious! I was so happy that my friend chose this place and I cannot wait to take people to this restaurant who come from out of town.

    Had dinner there last night, loved it! Great food and drinks. Alex, our server, was funny, attentive, enthusiastic and informative. Great date night spot (:

    Gnocchi and Steak entrees

    We came to enjoy my wife's birthday. She loves Roux because of its fresh ingredients and farm-to-fork nature. This trip didn't disappoint. The focaccia is always incredible. Made in house, you'll want to keep eating more and more of it. But save room for appetizers! I despise beats, but my wife made me try hers and I can honestly say I'm a beet-liever of their version which also had goat cheese. I enjoyed the pork belly that had a perfect crust to it and some Italian green sauce that was out of this world. For the entree I tried the Gnocchi. It was like a Time Machine of nostalgia that brought me back to my days in Uruguay. The sauce was reminiscent and the potato based dough of the pasta was nice. My wife ordered the flank and loved it paired with the broccolini. The flavors abound in all their dishes and create a culinary experience that you must come and try for yourself.

    The staff was very attentive and knowledgeable. Our server asked if we would like recommendations, when we said yes she spent time to explain popular dishes. The apps were delicious, we got the harissa Brussels sprouts and the pave potatoes. The Brussels sprouts were literally the best I've ever had! All four of us got different entrees and all were delicious. Then came dessert.... The basque cheesecake was good, BUT the sticky toffee carrot cake was amazing!!!! In all honesty I got back and just order the Brussels sprouts and carrot cake and be a happy man!

    I love me a farm-to-table restaurant, especially close to home. Roux provides a modest menu of seasonal dishes, each one specially curated and selected for the best dining experience they can offer. Reservations are recommended, especially on the weekends, since it's a very small place. They've turned a darling old house into a restaurant and the intimate feeling adds to its charm. Service is welcoming and friendly, but not over the top or intrusive. The food was delicious and flavorful. I appreciate that they could make a modification for me and make a dish without cheese-often chefs take offense to that, and I apologize. But I didn't feel bad making this request here. My favorite part of the meal may have been the bread, surprisingly. I'm not certain what it was, but it was delectable. I had to restrain myself from eating more, otherwise I would spoil my appetite.

    Menu 11/24
    Jenni M.

    We went to Roux in downtown SLC (515 E. 300 S.) for date night earlier tonight after seeing some positive reviews. Overall, we enjoyed the food and the service was amazing. Bread is complementary, and I was stoked because I love bread. We really loved our appetizers--the braised pork belly with maple poached pear ($16) and the funeral potato pave ($9). For our main courses, I enjoyed my pasta dish--the local mushroom agnolotti ($24). It was super pricey for the small portion. My husband was not a fan of the hanger steak ($38). I tried a bite and it was overly salty and tasted burnt. Being the trooper he is, he finished it anyway and we didn't complain. All the cocktails were good, but nothing to write home about. I'm not sure if I would come back. The place felt super cramped, the lighting was bright, the music was odd, and the dining room was super loud as it filled up. The treacherous parking lot has four spaces (we snagged one, being the second table to arrive at 5 p.m.), but plenty of street parking. I wouldn't recommend it for a romantic date night. They mentioned having weekend brunch, but the menu looked pretty basic so we're not sure if we'll go yet.

There is a medium sized parking lot in the back of the restaurant and the ambiance is so good that if you have good company you can easily spend 2 hours enjoying your meal! HSL is a true gem!

Honestly the cheese course was not my favorite. It was good cheese, but I didn't think the greens paired well with it so it really was just cheese, which I found a little disappointing. However the entrees more than made up for it. The pasta especially was absolutely delicious, the braised beef cheek was cooked so perfectly it melted in my mouth. Not to mention I ended up breaking out in hives at the start of the meal (unrelated to the food) and the staff was so kind. They quickly boxed our food and even brought me some Claritin to help tide me over. The food was piping hot when they boxed it and traveled beautifully, which was a bonus for sure. For brunch, my husband had the burger with a fried egg and I had their special of the day: chilaquiles. This might have been the best chilaquiles I've had in the valley. The pork was delicious, the poached egg was actually perfect, and the chips still kept their crunch which is usually my biggest gripe. I didn't try the burger, but my husband was raving about it. I would highly recommend Oquirrh.

Then there are not a lot of seats inside with a small bar. Service was outstanding and very friendly. They do not have a large wine list, but we found a good bottle of red. The menu is not large either, but everyone in our party of 4 loved everything. For appetizers, we had the sourdough bread, a cheese course, and something called milk-braised potatoes. The bread was delicious and absolutely worth it. Then we all devoured the cheeses--all three were wonderful (for one, we got name and chased it down and bought more the next day. Then the potatoes were unusual but really tasty. They had a great flavor and the vinaigrette that was used was so special. Absolutely worth having. For the main course, I had the pork chop. One of the best if not the best I have ever had. It was cooked well, but still juicy and flavorful. Then I loved the mash and mushrooms that were with it. Others loved the ribeye and the fish. Everything was perfect. I was kind of full, but had bread pudding for dessert. This was excellent as well, but also very filling. Definitely worth visiting!

First off, the roasted beets might honestly be the best thing on the menu (which sounds ridiculous until you try them). They come with greens tossed in a dressing that is absolutely mouth-watering, I could eat a whole bowl of just the greens. Next was the mushroom toast, layered with the creamiest goat cheese spread that perfectly balances the earthy mushrooms. But the real showstopper was the pork belly. I've never had pork belly like this before. They serve it in these perfect little cubes and when you bite into one it literally bursts with flavor. It's paired with green apples, which might sound unexpected, but it's an incredible combination. If you've never had pork with green apples before, you're missing out, it's the perfect sweet, crisp contrast. We finished the night with beignets and an affogato. My affogato had butter pecan ice cream with a rich espresso poured over the top - simple and absolutely delicious. We were tended to by our server through out the night. 5 star service, 5 star food, and the restaurant was beautiful inside and out. Can't wait to sit out on the patio in the summer!

However, additional details create a loving connection - it's off-Broadway central location, the copper-paneled ceiling that mimics warm conversations in varied spaces (cocktail, chef's counter, expandable tables for groups, and outdoor), fresh, locally-sourced ingredients with service to match. It's the place where I had my first glass of Turley Zinfandel (education alongside), and the place I will always return for my favorite Wagyu Beef Stroganoff (a comfort from home, but upscale). This one delivered with large, firm, expertly seasoned portobello & forest mushrooms over wide, freshly handmade pappardelle pasta that soaks up rich beef stock (a touch of black pepper) blended with crème fraîche. A generous portion of wagyu is tender and rich. PRO TIP: Mix then let it sit & marinade a minute - flavor pays in dividends. For dessert, a Valhrona Chocolate Pudding topped with whip cream and Maldon flake salt - exquisite, but expensive.

I informed her that we had a reservation under my name, John, but she simply looked at her list, seemed annoyed, and told us to wait anyway. While we were waiting, we watched several parties of two arrive after us with reservations at 8:10, 8:15, and even 8:20, and they were seated before us. After waiting about 20 minutes, I went back to ask how much longer it would be. I was told it would be another 20 minutes. I reminded Carleigh that we had a reservation, and her response was, "Oh, you did?" She then asked for my full name and phone number, looked up the reservation, apologized, and immediately escorted us to a table that appeared to have been ready the entire time. This was extremely frustrating and disappointing. Reservations are made so guests don't have to wait behind people who arrive later. It felt like our reservation had been completely ignored until I spoke up a second time. Whether this was poor organization or a lack of attention, the level of service at the front desk was unacceptable. We came looking forward to a nice family dinner, but the experience started with unnecessary frustration and left a very poor first impression. I sincerely hope additional training is provided so this doesn't happen to other guests.

We enjoyed our time and I will definitely go back! Hopefully for some drinks next time!
