A really awesome spot in a not so awesome city. Popping into the Copper Onion, I was able to pretend I was back in Chicago - clearly this spot is led by folks that know food and hospitality. The seasoning was exceptionally on point, as were the attention to details - and the quality ingredients all shined, in what is effectively a little down town hipster hole in the wall of an otherwise odd, suburban vibed down town. Super highly recommended for everything one would be concerned about. Zero complaints, and only praise for this exceptionally delicious restaurant.

I'm not sure how I haven't been here yet! Traveling to SLC for work I've tried so many great restaurants and this is on the top of my list! I got to sit at the chefs counter and watch them prepare everyone's food. The attention to detail was top notch. I got the wagyu beef stroganoff which is a house speciality, and the watermelon gazpacho. Both were delicious! Perfectly seasoned, great texture, and flavors! I highly recommend this place.

The Copper Onion is the dinner spot in Salt Lake City! It opened in 2010 and this loud brasserie-style restaurant has excellent food but is approachab and comfortable. I couldn't get enough of their watermelon gazpacho--so refreshing, it was the highlight of my meal. The menu is packed with unique, well-crafted dishes made in-house daily, and it's clear that Chef Ryan Lowder, who trained under Jean-Georges, knows exactly what he's doing. Add in the impressive wine and cocktail menus, and it's the perfect spot for dinner. The Copper Onion is the dinner spot in Salt Lake City!

I came here about 3 years ago and I've been dreaming about this place since. Finally got to go back and it was still just as amazing. The bone marrow is so delicious. Could be a meal On it's open but I couldn't stop eating. The pork ragu was very well seasoned and delicious. Drinks are so good too. I sat at the bar. The bartender was great at checking in and offering suggestions for food/drink. The bar was great.they also have sitting area where you can sit and watch all your food being made. Which might be dangerous cuz everything looked so good!

This was my second visit to Copper Onion, this time with my taste buds fully in tact and no cold, and with a co-worker along for the meal. I ordered the mushroom grain bowl, which came with sliced bell pepper, avocado, a variety of mushrooms, pickled radish and sliced snow pea pods, with a ginger-sesame dressing. It was served cold, and could have used more dressing, but was very fresh and felt healthy. My co-worker ordered the fried goat cheese salad which looked very simple, but she said was perfect. Also pictured here were the fried artichokes served with a garlicky aioli - I got those last visit and loved them, so got them again. Copper Onion has a great ambiance, a wait staff full of professional, friendly and personable servers, and a great menu using local and seasonal ingredients. I'm happy to have visited again and look forward to my next visit! Final note - this location is in downtown SLC and street parking is for-pay via an app. Both visits I had no trouble finding spots to park right in front of the restaurant, but it did take a few minutes to download the parking app, set up an account and method of payment, and then figure out my zone and parking spot numbers. But once I did all that it was pretty easy. For approx 1.5 hrs it cost me $3.60.

When visiting Salt Lake City wanted to try out this place downtown. Definitely didn't disappoint. We had the Ricotta Dumplings as an appetizer which were very good. For lunch decided on the Waygu Beef Stroganoff, homemade noodles and a light sauce, was very tasty and a pretty good portion for lunch. Our waitress was extremely friendly and the aesthetic of the restaurant itself was great. Looked like they have a good lunch crowd, we were just visiting on vacation. Would love to come Back and try more.

The copper onion was amazing. I came here for a birthday dinner and every single dish we ordered we loved the fried artichoke was a huge hit the aïoli sauce. It comes with that they make in house is wonderful. I got the Wagyu beef stroganoff. The portion was big enough. I had leftovers and it was still just as delicious the very next day I would come back and order it again. My friends split the Cacio E Pepe they really enjoyed it. I do have to say they ricotta dumplings are a little strange but vegetarian friendly so they're not terrible. I just don't know that I would order them again. And the fries the Parmesan fries are just typical. You can maybe skip those get the spicy potatoes instead. We were so full from the food. We did not end up ordering dessert, but it did look amazing everyone else who is ordering it! lol The restaurant is pretty loud so between the volume from the other tables and the loud music you do have to speak in a pretty loud voice to hear people across from you at the table. I would definitely recommend I would come here again. I would order the same dishes. I would try new dishes. It's in a great location. I love this restaurant. I would give it a 9 out of 10.

I really enjoyed the bread and it was a decent amount for $7. Both my pasta and my partner's pork chop were really well done. The pork chop sauce reminded me of mole (sortuh - vaguely) and I wish it had been even a little bit spicy. The oysters were not great and I would pass on those in the future. Oh and the beer was canned so $8 seemed a bit high. The bill came out to about $97 after tip. Overall I would definitely come again and just avoid the oysters and beer if you care about it being on draft or not.
