This supercute diner is classic Utah, with waitstaff that dote, Naugahyde booths and even a crackling fire on cold days. Expect hearty plates of meat and potatoes, perfect BLTs and meal-size soups. Locals come for towering wedges of homemade pie, such as the banana blueberry creme, and it's locally respected as the best breakfast joint around.
