I came here twice in three days. Each time, I ordered a pastry and an iced americano. First time: ham & cheese pastry + coffee Second time: chocolate almond croissant + coffee There is an à la carte/cafe and dine-in option. I did not dine in here, but ordered breakfast twice. You pick your pastries and order coffee with the person at the register in the cafe area, pay, and then pick up your coffee in the pick-up area near the front entrance (right side). They will offer to hear up your pastry for you, say yes every time. Eva's Bakery is just très charmante. I did get a sticker to take home (ask if you want one!) and apparently they are sister restaurants with "Eva" that is pretty close by. One of the baristas that works here in the morning also works at the Eva's bar at night. Apparently, I was told Eva's Bakery and Eva's is kind of a hidden secret even from the locals. Either you know it or you don't. I love that this spot is in downtown SLC so that I could visit while I was here. It's definitely a place to come back to as much as you can. AMAZING pastries, good coffee, friendly baristas, and outdoor seating: you can't go wrong. Five shining stars!

This was by far the absolute best experience I had in Salt Lake City this weekend. They were kind…read moreto see me at a table by myself indoors. OMG the heat. I got a strawberry Mojito without alcohol. They have a fancy name, but I forgot. I asked for recommendations and they gave me quite a few amazing things to think about. I ended up with the steak salad and French toast. They were so good. I want to go back tomorrow to eat it again. I've seen they plated it a little differently on salads. So I wasn't sure how this would be. Every steak was so tender and perfectly seasoned. The shaved brussels sprout was delicious and the avocado was perfect. They were kind enough to change the cheese. I'm still thinking about that salad and beef. The French toast was so good. I wish I took a picture of the bottom so you could see how much vanilla and cinnamon and yumminess was at the bottom of this French toast. The maple syrup was real maple syrup because you could taste it. I was so happy The bathrooms were big and clean and they had period products into women's bathroom. . My server was kind enough to offer to plate or package any bakery items. So I took home six different things. There was one I was curious about and she gave me her honest opinion that it looks good but it's the one item she does not like on the menu. So I ordered something else and the strawberry I can't remember the name was delicious. I may get a Lyft to come back again tomorrow Omg this was the highlight of my weekend. So many things have gone wrong this weekend, but this was a gem.

I got a ticket and it made me cry inside. Lesson learned. Be careful y'all.

Their chickpea bao buns with chipotle aioli blew me away. It was the perfect level of spicy and very filling without making me feel heavy. It seemed actually nutritious, so no need for the guilt after (that I saved for the cinnamon roll dessert I picked up at the same time). The price was also very affordable. I love how much variety is available here and that it's all vegan. I always feel spoiled for choice, I never know what to get because it all looks so good. There's a decent amount of seating inside. The ladies at the shop are always very friendly. This is an amazing spot for a sweet treat or a quick meal. One of my top vegan spots in Salt Lake.

I absolutely love Sweet Hazel -- it's probably my favorite vegan restaurant in Salt Lake City and…read morehonestly, one of my favorite restaurants ever. Their burritos and fries are my go-to favorites. The burritos are just top-notch, but I have a soft spot for their fries -- it's kind of an inside joke for me. Whenever I go out to eat with people, they always say, "Well, I know what El is having," because I always get fries with my food. But theirs are surprisingly amazing. Fries are usually just "fine" or "good," but theirs? They're very good. The owner is incredibly kind, and their baked goods are fantastic -- especially the peanut butter brownie, which I can't recommend enough. Their soft serve is also really good, and I'm excited to try some of their candy next time. I even took a non-vegan friend there, and he really enjoyed the food. Beyond the food, the team is so nice, and they have a little vegan market with some really cool products. I bought about half a pound of vegan bacon from them, and now I'm making all kinds of breakfast sandwiches at home. If you're in the area, whether you're vegan or not, Sweet Hazel is a must-visit. And if you can't stop by in person, their partner company Break Free Candy ships their sweets, which is awesome. Seriously, if you order anything from the menu, make it the peanut butter brownie. It's life-changing -- and I say that as a huge brownie lover.

There are a few stations where you can punch in your order on a screen, and if you're dining in, someone will bring your food out to you on a tray. Tamarind is a great fast casual spot for pho. I was craving noodle soup after a long flight (my comfort meal) and was lucky enough to find Tamarind very close to my hotel. The food came out quickly and the ingredients were fresh. There are a lot of carry out orders and people coming in for food delivery services, but still a few folks dining in as well. The broth was good (clear, the right amount of seasoning) and plenty of meat and noodles. I enjoyed my meal here! I am pleasantly surprised at how many Vietnamese places there are in downtown SLC, having been here for the first time and knowing too much about the area. If I worked downtown, I would come here all the time! They have bowls and banh mis on the menu that I didn't get to try, but everything looked really good. I'd come back in a heartbeat.

However, additional details create a loving connection - its 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. The texture is comforting and delicious - olive oil adds a lingering finish with slight fruit.

Service has never been anything short of stellar & this is coming from someone who has been a regular since the 90s. Decades without a single bad experience in food or service. The rare beef Pho is excellent. The icing on the cake is that they take notes and remember their customers. My wife told them over a year ago that I'm deaf & prefer a booth to better understand conversation/lipreading & they remember every time without saying a word. Wonderful restaurant and fantastic people across the board.

Disappointing Experience - Food Quality & Service…read more I've been to Mi La Cai Noodle House before, but unfortunately, my most recent experience was very disappointing. I ordered the wonton soup, and the pork wontons did not taste right to me. I let the gentleman who was helping us know about the issue, and he told me, "Let me see with my manager what I can do for you." To be clear, I wasn't asking them to take the soup off my bill or give me anything for free. I simply wanted to see if they could provide a little more meat so I could finish my bowl. I thought that was a reasonable request, especially since I had already explained that the pork wontons didn't taste right. Unfortunately, the gentleman never came back to our table, and the manager never stopped by or spoke with us at all. We ended up paying the full bill, and no one even apologized or offered any kind of resolution. When the host later asked how everything was, I explained that the wonton soup wasn't as good as I expected. She simply said, "Oh, sorry." While I understand that mistakes happen, it felt like a very dismissive response, especially after we had already brought the issue to their attention. I honestly feel like the food quality at this restaurant has gone downhill. What disappointed me even more was the lack of customer service and follow-through. If a customer takes the time to politely bring up an issue, I would expect someone from management to at least come to the table and address it. Unfortunately, after this experience, I won't be coming back. I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously because I used to have a much better impression of the food and service.

I even had a bit of my friends pesto pasta and the texture tasted like regular pasta. HOWEVER, I'm giving Zest 4 starts because I have a pretty severe allergy to walnuts. It was my fault for not reading all the ingredients but I did have to go to urgent care and get an epi shot after some extreme nausea and hives all over me. My only wish is that Zest put an emphasis on foods that contain nuts and which nuts. I understand a lot of vegan foods use cashews almonds and pine nuts as substitutes but I felt like walnuts were a bit random to have in nachos that I didn't consider that dish to be nut free before ordering. Good to know next time but the food was bomb!
