Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Salt Lake City

Excellent dinner and service. Rafa was very attentive and made our evening a very pleasant experience.

Everything was great. The waiter seemed a bit distracted. Service was not at its usual exceptional level.

This is a great local restaurant in our neighborhood. Interesting menu, many choices and delicious. Our server was great and attentive.

First of all…. We didn’t go for the “value” we went because this place is great, has great food, is fun to go to and the service has always been exceptional!! Last night Sky was our server and she was beyond great. Some of the small critical issues, while dining, that bug me were tended to and she listened so our service was awesome!! We had 4 different guests and 4 different dinners. Enchiladas, Pesto Pasta, Salmon and Stroganoff. We were all very pleased with our meals. Each couple shared a salad and the portions were surprisingly nicely sized. The grilled pear salad was exceptional and the pears were warm!! Delicious!! We all shared a Butter Cake for desert and was also very suited for the evening. Our friends had Espresso Martinis that they wish they could have had another but also needed to drive home. I enjoyed a Latte and my date had just a cup of coffee which Sky said she brewed a fresh pot of coffee as they had not yet served any!! Good job Sky! We’re liking The Cliff more and more each time we go!!

Usually when a restaurant offers a wide variety of styles, including sushi and steak, they do well at neither. Blind dog has done an amazing job of spreading out the excellence by dividing it - the sushi is created at a sushi bar by people dedicated to the task, and the steak and other fresh stuff is done in a different kitchen. Either way, the ingredients are invariably awesome. I have gone to blind dog probably 20 times in the last 5 years and every time I go there it's an incredibly comfortable, tasty experience. It ain't cheap, but it's worth it for the blend of top notch food and great service.
