Bar Nohm

The 29 Best Restaurants in Salt Lake City, Utah | Eater

"The modern izakaya-style Bar Nohm in Salt Lake City’s Central 9th neighborhood pays homage to Japanese and Korean drinking culture with a menu of creative bites and extensive beverage offerings. Under the direction of chef David Chon — a 2024 James Beard semifinalist who draws inspiration from his South Korean upbringing and global culinary travels — the menu changes daily to feature fresh, locally available ingredients. Highlights include a pork omelet with tofu cream and a spicy cucumber salad with squid, mushrooms, and mung bean noodles, along with playful cocktails like the Pompoco-Loco (soju, rye, and miso gardenia) served in a keepsake mug. Vibe check: A door connects to sibling bar, Water Witch, creating a lively, dynamic mood." - Sarah Entwistle
