    Extremely disappointed, our Server was inattentive and nearly unseen the whole time. We received more help from the Host that seated us and had to ask her repeatedly for assistance as we were being ignored by our Server. The food came like warm at best and the flavors/tastes were unappealing and a little stomach churning.

    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.

    We have been here a number of times and loved it but this last time was horrible! Food was super slow to come out and none of it was good. The Brussels sprouts were swimming in something, beet salad was so bitter we could not eat it, the pork was not trimmed and super fatty, the gnocchi was cold, meat had ben sitting way too long to be served. We asked the manager if something had changed and they said their main chef had left and are looking for a new one. I hope they fine one quickly, we really liked their seasonal food but won’t be back until they can figure out the chef situation.

    Always my most favorite place, in all of Utah ♥️ great pricing for spectacular flavors, quality ingredients, and caring about the customers. Have been coming here for years and will forever be a supporter of a great restaurant/bar and fantastic female-owned and operated business.

    Great service good food, however, one dish was over salted and not good. When I pointed it out to the food server, she immediately asked what she could do to fix it, but we were pretty full from appetizers and did not request anything. Although they would’ve taken care of that without complaint.

    Great food with unique touches, well prepared and served wonderfully by a well-trained staff. We had a party of four and all tried different dishes - each was terrific. The Pot De Creme made with local, small batch chocolate was a nice surprise, and the Apple Galette was amazing! Will definitely return.

    Loved the unique menu, the ambience, the delicious appetizer and main course. The owner kindly helped me with an Anniversary request, allowing me to drop off flowers for my sweetheart, and placing them in a nice vase at our table. It's that little extra that makes me want to come back again and again! Dave
