The TOP RATED Italian Restaurant in Utah is…

When I crave something it's usually greasy cheeseburgers.

After that it might be pasta.

My favorite fancy place to go in St. George is Cappelettis. It's amazing. The flavor of the Chicken Gorgonzola will knock your socks off. You get it for like $17.50. It's amazing.

But I've decided to branch out a little.

Here's the top rated Italian restaurant in all of Utah:

Markato Kitchen - Salt Lake City

This place has a 4.9 star rating on Google!

That's insane.

It's most famous for its stromboli.

It looks amazing.

From the website: (LINK TO WEBSITE)

"Marcato Kitchen is passionate about reimagining the classic Italian-American Stromboli with a chef-driven, artisanal approach. Each Stromboli is crafted by hand, using locally sourced ingredients to create bold, fresh flavors that highlight their commitment to craftsmanship. From farm-fresh produce to locally made cheeses and cured meats, their creations bring a unique and elevated twist to a beloved comfort food."

Apparently they also have awesome chocolate chip cookies.

This looks like a must next time I find myself up north.

If you're looking for a more traditional Italian option, SaltPlateCity recommends several starting with Stanza in Salt Lake:

"Stanza is the perfect date night Italian restaurant as it’s formal enough to make the night feel special with top-notch service and wonderfully presented courses but not so much you need to extend your credit card limit and steam your tuxedo (and also buy a tuxedo). Featuring an impressive wine list and seriously (seriously) attentive wait staff, Stanza’s pasta brings variety at every corner."

Might be too fancy for the big fella. I'll see you at Olive Garden.
