Dining out: Ruth's Diner
5 comments | Read story
the episode on Ruth,s Diner. Living in Alabama,
biscuits and gravy are a top choice for breakfast.
When we saw the size of those biscuits, well, who
could resist!! We got up early Mon. morning and
started out to find Ruth's. after a beautiful drive through Emigration Canyon, we arrived only to find
the restaurant CLOSED. we were so disappointed, but
decided to try again the next day. It was well
worth the second trip. The biscuits were so BIG, I
even took a picture of mine! Had to show the folks in Bama what a Utah biscuit looks like. The food
and service was excellent. We ate on the back patio.
which was lovely. You are surrounded by these beau-
tiful mountains, while you enjoy your meal. My
daughter and her family decided this would be a place they would continue to dine at. And, next time I visit, Ruth;s will be a must!!
While in SLC we also went to Pat's BBQ and the Blue Plate Diner. The food and service at Pat's was very good but it doesn't compare to Ruth's. Of course, you're comparing apples to oranges. We stopped at the Blue Plate Diner for desert and we were told their deserts are store bought and they we out of ice cream when we ordered a milk shake.
In summary, you won't be disappointed at Ruth's whether or not you're a fan of Diners, Drive-ins and Dives. This is the place to visit in Salt Lake City. I only wish we had time to go back again and again.
