The Red Butte Café on Salt Lake’s Eastside has carved a special niche in the city’s informal dining scene. Warm and inviting, with subtle, contemporary décor and a sophisticated southwest eclectic menu, it’s the type of place that cultivates “regulars” and routinely impresses visitors. Add the display case of award-winning desserts, and it’s no wonder the restaurant has maintained a loyal following. With seasonal menus by executive chef Rich Parrent, Red Butte appeals to diners who appreciate fresh, refined menu selections and moderate pricing.
