Best restaurants near me in Pleasant Grove, UT

The food was fantastic. The service could be much better. Our server did a good job. The challenge seemed to be the support staff and the kitchen that were struggling. They struggled to refill chips, refill water etc. There were three of us at dinner, two of us were nearly done with our entrées by the time they brought the third person out his entrée. No offer for a discount, comp or even an apology for his food being brought to the table nearly 20 minutes after everyone else's. We ordered the guacamole trio, they brought out the guacamole but there were no chips so we asked for a refill on the chips… It was about 5 to 10 minutes before the chips got refilled. If they could improve a few of these service related issues, I think they would be a Five star/top-tier restaurant.

On vacation to SLC. Found this restaurant on Open Table. Very good food and friendly staff.

Server was super friendly and helpful and wowed us with little surprises throughout the dining experience. The food was excellent, and the ambiance terrific!

We had a lovely evening at The Block—a charming spot in Provo with a strong farm-to-table ethos and some truly standout dishes. The food was overall very tasty, though the prices leaned a bit high for the portion sizes and setting. The ambiance was cozy and intimate, but the comfort level could use some improvement. The metal four-legged tables, while stylish, were a bit of a nuisance—both my wife and I managed to bump our knees more than once. We appreciated the seasonal focus of the menu, but it was a little surprising to see items like filet of beef and lasagna listed online, which don’t typically vary with the seasons. A few more “standard” or consistent menu options would be a welcome addition. As for the food: the pear salad and wedge salad were both excellent starters. The pork belly, while flavorful, lacked the crispy texture I usually look for and could have used a touch more seasoning. The Bolognese was the star of the night—rich, well-balanced, and beautifully paired with bucatini. Others at our table enjoyed the gnocchi and short rib, though the gnocchi also could have used a bit more seasoning. The optional focaccia bread was a highlight—possibly the best I’ve ever had. Service was smooth and the meal took about an hour, which felt just right for a relaxed dinner. All in all, The Block is a great choice for a special night out, especially if you appreciate fresh, locally sourced ingredients. Just be ready for a few minor quirks along the way.

First time at this Nori Sushi and very pleased with rolls and the appetizer.
