Located atop beautiful Suncrest with sweeping views of the Wasatch Range, our warm and open architecture makes Ridge Cafe one of the best restaurants in Utah.

The cornerstone of Ridge Cafe is our authentic Stefano Ferrara brick pizza oven which creates delicious, artisan, award-winning pizzas in seconds and offers a flavorful smoky finish to our steaks, seafood and chicken. Handcrafted in Naples, and formed with clay from Italy’s Sorrento region, this eye-catching, copper-tiled oven cooks the best pizza!

We also offer sandwiches, salads, pastas, a full bar, happy hour, nightly specials and sumptuous desserts!

    I want so badly to give The Ridge 5 stars. But, three strikes and you are out. Small town vibe, in the mountains, beautiful view, amazing food... BUT! CRAZY assembly line, get you in out as fast as they can service. It makes me sad. The ambiance is there 100%, but they move you through literally as fast as they can to get you out. We come here weekly but after 3 strikes we are out to find another restaurant. Advice for management: Treat your guests like you actually want them there. Like you care. It's all about money and not the experience, we get it. The last three times have been horrible - to say the least. We feel rushed every single time. in and out in under 30 minutes. Sorry. Poor. The food is good but not excellent. We came for the mountains and will head to The Cliff in Draper, or something similar. We are done. It's time to level-up your service.

    Took my mom there for Mother’s Day brunch. And for an almost $200 brunch I was really not impressed. My poached eggs were hard boiled, The breakfast potatoes were deep-fried, the bloody Mary was horrendous, and the mimosas were not much better… sadly I won’t be returning

    Overall we had a good experience. Our server was excellent. The food was good but not great. From the description of the restaurant we expected to have a bit of a view. Instead we were seated in a dark corner and I’m not sure there was a view to be had anyway. An enjoyable Mothers Day brunch but I doubt we will be back.

    We were early, just after opening which is never a good idea. The food was a little rushed and my pizza crust was a little undone and soft but otherwise excellent tasting and obviously quality ingredients. We plan to be back and take our friends as the overall experience was great!

    Nice ambiance! We made reservations for our party of 6. Two of the meals took so long the other four of us had finished our meals before theirs arrived. The biscuits with my meal were so under cooked they were doughy. I ordered the chicken fried chicken which sits on top of biscuits then covered in gravy. By the time they brought new biscuits the rest of my meal was cold. The server apologized but all in all not a great experience.

    We had a party of 5 and they sat us at a table for 12 or so next to the freezer which was uncomfortable cold. We asked to be moved to another table but they said there wasn’t anything else open We were having brunch and had a reservation for 10am. At 11:30 the server came to us and said “we’re not asking you to leave but someone else is here with a reservation and we want to use this table so can you please leave ” This was a Sunday brunch between sisters-including a new sister we didn’t know existed until recently. It’s not like we had been there for hours and hours. We were so shocked we didn’t even know what to say

    Even though I had a reservation for 3, the table was not ready. The staff was attentive and very friendly. The pizza was tasty, but the crust was crispy around the edges, yet quite floppy in the middle. I will go back, when the weather gets warmer so i can sit outside and enjoy the view.

    Very nice ambience, rustic, Italian themed, fun background music. Wonderful server, answered our questions about the menu, no rush to finish, & checked in on us enough to keep drinks & waters filled. It’s a little on the expensive side, but it’s all house made & delicious. Totally worth it!
