We got some takeout from Stoneground last week, and it was extremely delicious. I had the black tagliatelle, and it was absolutely packed with seafood. Yum! We also shared the Nonno, which had too much garlic for my taste, but I was able to pick it off, no problem. I also enjoyed the polenta tots, but there was no dipping sauce with them, which seems like a missed opportunity. (Not sure if they just come plain or if the dipping sauce didn't make it in the bag.) I would like to eat a Stoneground meal again, and I look forward to dining in person at some point. read more

This place has been one of my favorite Italian spots in SLC for over 10 years now. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere feels warm and inviting, and the service is attentive without being overbearing. Every dish ordered is always flavorful, comforting, and clearly made with care. Exactly what you want from an Italian spot. The pasta is incredible, the portions are generous, and everything tastes fresh and well-balanced. It's the kind of place you leave already planning your next visit. Easily a 5-star experience every time. Going in the summer or fall is especially night to sit outside on the patio under the lights. read more

My bf and I both got the lasagna and liked it. It was a little meatier/saltier than I like personally, but my bf said it was the best lasagna he's had in Salt Lake so far! I did like how it was presented and served in a hot dish and practically overflowing with sauce and cheese. It was also maybe the priciest lasagnas we've had in the city ($31). If it were just a few bucks cheaper, I would say it's totally worth it! He also got a glass of wine and I had an orange creamsicle-kind of mocktail, which was yummy! Overall service was friendly and attentive, relatively quick. Ambiance is dim, cozy, and could be a little romantic. I'm not sure if we went through the back entrance, but we came from University and entered at first what looked like Doki Doki, but instead went up stairs on the right. Overall not too tough to find and parking is convenient! read more

We came here for our anniversary dinner, it was honestly very delicious, service was decent the ambiance on the other hand if your wanting something romantic and quite maybe this isn't the place for that since there where big groups and all pretty loud, but the view was nice if your by the window. Food overall was great, but what took the award for us that night was there homemade cheesecake I'm not lying when I say it was THE BEST cheesecake I've ever had and we love cheesecake and have had from many places!

The food is absolutely delicious. Handmade pasta, unique flavor combinations, make for a fabulous meal! We had the lasagna, which was super flavorful, the spicy sausage fettuccine, the classic bolognese, and the new corn and cream stuff shells. All were so delicious! The setting is in a nice rooftop restaurant with lots of windows and a massive fireplace in the center. Super cute decorations. The service was quick and waiters were very nice. End it with a lovely dessert, especially their donuts! read more

The food was delicious and the ambiance is beautiful. I'd recommend this place for a date night or a small group dinner. However, I would NOT recommend it for larger celebrations. This past weekend, I chose this restaurant to celebrate my birthday with 15 friends. Our reservation was at 8:00 PM, and most of my guests were seated by 8:20 PM. I completely understand that Saturday nights are busy, and some delay in taking orders is expected. My dinner arrived around 9:30 PM, which I accepted given the time and party size. What truly upset me was how rushed the evening suddenly became. My birthday cake was brought out without me requesting it, I was caught out of guard, which I later realized was likely because closing time was approaching. From that moment on, the entire table felt hurried. Many of my friends have worked in restaurants, so everyone became hyper aware of not wanting to inconvenience the staff. Within about 30 minutes, we were finishing dinner, cutting the cake, and preparing to leave. I was in my car by 10:20 PM. Half of the group dispersed in different directions, and I even missed saying goodbye to several of my guests. For a milestone birthday dinner, that was honestly heartbreaking. The staff did apologize as I was leaving, and I do appreciate that. I also understand that closing time matters. However, as someone who worked in restaurants for years, I believe there is a more thoughtful and elegant way to handle large parties near closing. A simple heads up to the host an hour before closing would allow the group to pace themselves and avoid feeling that rushed.I truly wanted this to be a special memory. While the food and setting were great, the way the night ended left me very disappointed. read more

My sister, niece, and I had dinner here a few weeks before Christmas. The ambiance was really beautiful and cozy, decorated nicely for the holidays. The food was delicious and comforting and the service was top-notch. We had the foccacino as an appetizer which came with three different dipping options, all delicious. We ordered two different pizzas, the Diavola was the better of the two (the other was the Nono). We also had the black tagliatelle which was scrumptious. Very enjoyable meal! read more

Great little place to go for fabulous Italian food and excellent service. I especially like their Bolognese. Their pizzas are great and the salads are all wonderful.. recently had the pasta tagatelli with lobster and it was fabulous. I will definitely repeat. read more

Such a great dining experience. It was a recommendation from a friend since I was in town for a work trip. we love a Good recommendation. The portion size is HUGE and perfect for sharing. My sister and I shared the Margherita pizza and the lasagna. They were sooooo good and FRESSSSSSHHHHHHHH!! Cheese just melting. It was sooooo good. Just perfection. The restaurant is beautiful. Rustic. The staff were so kind. They have a patio area as well with mist fans for those hot days. Ample seats and family style seats as well. Great experience and great food. read more

I did find this place rather interesting. It has a very local hole in the wall vibe but serves excellent pizza with pretty surprising toppings. This place gets packed for dinner so make sure to make a reservation. read more

Good vibes, great view. Parking is TIGHT and very difficult, but easy to access if you're taking trax. Service was meh. The arancini was delicious although it was disappointing to only receive one! I could have eaten three! Pizza was the biggest disappointment - the bottom was blackened and burnt and took over everything. The toppings were skimpy and I wasn't really able to taste them properly with the crust bitterness. This place used to be so cool and now it's just ... meh. read more

Ever wondered what "Al Dente" meant when taking about noodles? The noodles at Stoneground were perfectly " Al dente". It made me realize my noodles I make at home were mush! Glad I got to enjoy a meal here. They bolognese sauce was perfect. The fettuccine was a perfect balance of spicy and red sauce. The fried olives for an appetizer was perfectly light. It made for a lovely evening and I will now try and cook my noodles better. read more

This was only my second time going to Stoneground and both times the food has been amazing! I love the upstairs atmosphere and it's great for a celebrating a special event. The first time I was there, there was snow falling and it was beautiful to watch it from the upstairs window. The Steve's special looked a little off because of the sauce but it was absolutely delicious and I would highly recommend! The nono gpa was so flavorful! I liked both the gma and gpa. The asparagus is a must for an appetizer. I also love they have such a variety of wines, I don't usually see barbera's when I'm eating out. read more

My go-to spot when visiting Salt Lake City. Beautiful interior, friendly staff, nice menu, and diverse cocktails. Plus, the TRAX station across the street makes it a convenient spot for meeting U or U students. Great place for a date night, birthday dinner, or just a cozy Italian dinner out. read more

Stoneground is a beautiful space with beautiful food. It's pretty idyllic for celebrations - birthdays, engagements, etc. The vibe is upscale without feeling stuffy. Our most recent visit was for New Year's Eve. Everything from making a reservation to finding parking was easy and accessible. The vast majority of the food was amazing! The octopus carpaccio is easily one of the best dishes I've had in SLC - the textures and flavors are immaculate! Also, their lobster pappardelle is to die for - richly decadent and perfectly balanced. Their cioppino left a lot to be desired though - the various seafood components were not cooked correctly, so while the mussels and clams were great, both the fish and the crab were disappointingly overcooked. All in all, a great bet for a night out or your special occasion! read more

I was recommended this place by a friend that used to work here. It was a wonderful spot as I walked to the second level. I found a seat at the back bar and ordered a focaccino to munch on as I decided walk to eat. Finally chose the bolognese because I was still walking around and the bartender Tristan said if I got the lasagna I would probably want to take a nap after. So in the interest of staying loose I enjoyed the bolognese. The whole space is great for small gatherings and if you want a hearty good meal this is a wonderful spot to check out. read more

We came in for dinner last night and what a treat! Makenna was such a wonderful server and gave us some great recommendations! The space is upstairs (there is an elevator in the entrance on the opposite side of 400 south so it's ada friendly). There were some lovely outdoor spaces that we'd love to check out when it's not snowing! Music was also at the perfect volume so we weren't screaming over each other. Food was excellent! Polenta tots, burrata, and the fresh bread kicked things off. Love that so much of the food (bread, pastas, cheeses) is made fresh in house! We shared 2 pasta dishes, the pork chop, and the scallops. The pork chop and scallops were a tad overcooked which was a bummer considering the prices. Next time we will have to try a pizza or something less expensive but not as easy to overcook. Finished with the gelato trio and doughnuts. read more

At first I was like what the heck - the location had me like ‍ and then I saw the sign the the restaurant was upstairs It's really beautiful - very rustic yet, is upscale - I wore flip flops and jeans so it's really a wear what you want even though I added upscale. I had the pizza Spinachi. Piled with mushrooms and arugula. You guys! This was delish. I wasn't even hungry and ate two pieces. It has multiple types of cheeses. I would order this again if I went tomorrow! Hubby had bolognese and said it was fantastic. Said it might have too much of a basil flavor for me but he loved it! I believe the pasta is handmade. It looked great. I do not eat red meat so I didn't try it myself Daughter had the Beet Salad and said it was "very good" The picked veggies were yummy We picked this restaurant off of google. It's worth the visit. We come in once a year and will be back Service was great too read more

The mussels! A must try! A generous portion in a delicious sauce with lots of yummy bread to enjoy the remaining sauce. Got the black pasta with lobster. The noodles were cooked perfectly and there were lots. I didn't get as much lobster as previous reviewers but it was enough. I personally felt the Chardonnay sauce was bland, if it was more flavorful then I would've considered this a perfect dish. My bf got the beet salad and it was beautifully presented. Had the chicken dish as well which he enjoyed. Highly recommend reservations. It's a small space but they make great use of the it. Very inviting and warm atmosphere with a mix of tables and booths. The large windows give you a nice view of the city as this restaurant is on the second floor. read more

We've chosen this place as a dinner for us co workers as an offsite event. The ambiance of the restaurant is beautiful, just very dim lighting but romantic vibes. We started off with the charcuterie boards, mussels in the cream sauce which was absolutely delicious! We also got a couple pizzas as an appetizer which I enjoyed, crust was so soft! Our waiter was there throughout all our dramatic orders. The black ink pasta, as well as the steak was my entree and I enjoyed it so much! read more

It's honestly a shame I can't give 10 stars. Stoneground is probably the best restaurant in SLC. It's a hidden secret you find out through word of mouth, or in my instance. I followed my nose from down the street. And my buddy and myself found ourselves on a rooftop patio with great city scenery with the best chicken parm sandwich I've ever had. And despite its modern yet rustic inner city design and feel, you won't be spending a whole lot more than you would at Olive Garden. I don't know another place that puts as much effort into ambiance and culinary quality. The staff is insanely attentive and friendly. I just hope they can bring back the Chicken Parmigiana. The seafood pastas are also amazing. You will have a hard time eating fast casual Italian after trying Stoneground. read more

We read the reviews and we were looking forward to having a great Italian meal but it started off rocky. When we checked in with the host he said we are getting your table ready and he commented in a bit of a snobbish attitude "how did you find this place, it's difficult to find" ', and I'm thinking to myself, we'll it's listed on TripAdvisor, LOL, it's not a Speakeasy! The host heads off to the main dining area and returns and he tries to seat us directly across from the host stand, literally 15' away in a small room with literally 2 patrons. I asked to be seated in the main dining room and he said "let me see," the host then returns and seats us in a booth that is the most uncomfortable booth I have ever sat in. I then requested to be seated at a table with conventional chairs, which he responds "I need to check and see if that is possible"and again he goes off somewhere to confirm. Ironically there were plenty of empty tables available all night long. Now the food review, at this price point expect quality and service, and if a restaurant charges $12.00 for bread it should be excellent, not average. Unfortunately. the ceasar salad was bland and over dressed, the olives were unmemorable and the gnocchi was hard as a rock. The pizza was basically a lazy recipe. Lastly, the service was terrible, we watched the waitress in the distance by the pizza area giggling forever with another coworker all the while ignoring all of her tables. Ultimately I had to get up from our table to request our check. At this price point one is better off going to Urban Hill or Capital Grill for a few more dollars and experiencing excellent food and service. read more

Fantastic meal. Great service. Fast service. Great ambiance lighting. I got the pork chop which I actually tasted the flavor of. Dry yet moist when you chew on it. The sweet potatoes were incredible. Bok choy was good too. I had slices of my family's pizzas and the dough was like candy. So soft and delicious. Fantastic place that I'd recommend to anyone in Utah. read more

The food was mid at best and the prices are pretty insane for the type of food this is. The staff is really nice but I would probably say to try this once and that good enough to not try again.

First of all, to get there, be on the north side of the street. Take the driveway immediately west of the restaurant to get to parking. Enter the building and go up the stairs. You've arrived at your destination. Very cool vibe, both interior and patio. The most comfortable booths I've ever encountered. Great view of the kitchen and people watching around the restaurant. It smells amazing. The scallop ceviche was good, with light flavors. I wish it had a bit of chile and lime to complement the mango and scallop. The tagliatelle was just perfect. Order this and be happy. That sauce and perfectly al dente pasta! I always order gnocchi when it's made in house. This was divine. Light pillows of deliciousness with a great mouth feel, and a wonderful sauce. If you want bread, you must ask for it. The gluten free chocolate hazelnut torte was amazing. I asked for the recipe. Denied. I'll try to figure that out at home, but certainly will come back again. Service was great, glasses filled, we were checked on even though the restaurant was busy. We're coming back. read more

I am generally not a fan of food/restaurants in Utah. Things just don't hit for me when I visit. This place was actually pretty good and I would eat here again. There is a nice parking area in the back so that you don't have to walk too far to get the restaurant. Once inside there is sort of a weird set up where you walk up a few flights to check in. Once we were seated, the atmosphere was pretty nice. I'd even say cozy. I had the bolognese and it was good; definitely a big enough serving and presentation was great. Others in my party had the pizza and a few other pasta dishes. Everything was good. For dessert we had an order of doughnuts and again here, my NY bias is showing. I didn't think they were all that and a bag of chips... maybe just a bag of chips :). Seriously, they were fine and served hot with a raspberry sauce. Service was also good throughout the meal. The restroom does require a code (which I didn't notice at first), but the facilities were decent as well. Overall, not a bad stop and would eat there again. read more

Service was on point. Went for a rehearsal dinner and the staff was always there to fill wine glasses, take food orders, and answer questions. The food was decent. My husband had a pizza - crust was perfect. When they say spicy, they mean spicy! I ordered the pork chop - chop was a little dry but the crispy Brussels and potatoes made up for it. Will definitely go again, good space and service. read more

We have been there three times. The first time I had the lasagna. It was not good. Second time I ordered the Tagliatelle. It was so good should have stayed with that. Last time I ordered the Carbonara. It was okay at best. The Gaunciale was so over cooked, I thought it was a crouton. The bread was very good and the Arancini was good too. Server was very good. We were seated in a small room the last time we were there. Where they pack us in tight. I didn't appreciate that either. The big room is open and has some individual tables. I think that was our last time at Stone Ground. In summary I would say it's hit and miss. Good luck. read more

The lasagna was life-changing. Better than my Italian grandmothers. Love the vibe, the food is outstanding & drinks are incredible.

Burrata salad was delicious. Tomatoes were super sweet and juicy. Lots of tomatoes and cheese. Nonno pizza was good, but I unfortunately did not realize it didn't include tomato sauce. The pizza tasted more like cheesey bread than a pizza. However, if you are into cheesey pizzas then this might be for you. Also, I was surprised to see how smoky the inside of the restaurant was. I thought something had caught on fire in the kitchen, but our waiter said this was relatively normal for the restaurant. He had opened the door to promote circulation and by the end of our dinner the restaurant was still quite smoke filled. read more

I love their food and the service is top notch! My favorite lasagna I've ever had in a restaurant. I've had it other places but those places don't cook it in its own dish with the correctly shaped dish. Stoneground does it right and it's all gooey and perfectly caramelized! read more

Oh my god!!! This place was amazing! I visited from Orange County, Ca and saw this was one of the top rated Italian restaurants in the area of SLC. I made a reservation to celebrate my birthday and boy I loved it. I honestly don't remember the names of the dishes but I hope the pictures attached help. I had a pasta dish paired with a glass of red wine. My partner had a filet mignon with what seemed like scalloped potatoes and the best asparagus I've ever tasted in my life. I wasn't able to get a picture because he gobbled it right up. We also had house bread with different dipping sauces and our server let us try a stuffed potato ball. To end the night our server brought our this magnificent cinnamon donut plus some kind of pudding with a drop of strawberry jam/jelly and vanilla ice cream. The addition of a tiny candle was the cutest gesture. I might be killing the greatness of the dishes by how I describe them but you gotta taste for yourself! I would definitely keep visiting until I try all their dishes. Their menu does change, items I tried might not always be on the menu so make sure to check beforehand. There is indoor seating with booths and tables available. It is a tad bit noisy because everyone in there is chatting it up, but also very clean and elegant with dim lighting. But overall, loved the experience, loved our server, loved the food. Thanks chefs! read more
