Arlo Restaurant

My neighborhood go-to, my culinary security blanket, my quiet little secret. Arlo feels like the kind of place you hope never gets discovered by the masses. The room feels more like someone’s well-loved dining room than a restaurant… an old house where the line between kitchen and table disappears. It’s intimate without being precious, elevated without being stiff, and paired with service that’s genuinely human. Ask for Kat. The food is the real deal. Thoughtful, seasonal, and cooked by people who actually care what’s coming out of the kitchen. I’ve stopped looking at the menu ahead of time because whatever’s online is usually wrong anyway… and honestly, that’s part of the charm. This is a place meant to be eaten family-style. You come with a friend or two, order generously, pass plates, and trust the kitchen… or come alone and happily feast. You don’t come to Arlo with a plan. You show up, eat what’s in season, and let them take care of you. They always do. The vegetable tart is the one constant. I order it every time. And yet I’m just as happy eating literally anything else they put in front of me, because this is a place knows when to let great ingredients speak. The food is always on point leaving you wanting more, even when you’re completely stuffed. Arlo absolutely deserves the eyes of Michelin inspectors. I’ll restrain myself and let the experts decide if recognition is warranted… a statement I say with love, and also mild dread, because if that happens I’ll never get a table again. I wish this restaurant and their team nothing but success.

We just moved to the neighborhood and were excited to try Arlo. It exceeded our expectations and is exactly the kind of place we were hoping to find within walking distance of our house. The space is beautiful and the food is honestly incredible. We’re from Vegas, and I have a background in food and beverage, so I don’t say that lightly. Sitting at the chef’s counter made the night even better. I love watching the rhythm of a kitchen, and it was such a fun way to experience the meal. We started with the bread and butter, which set the tone immediately. From there, everything just kept getting better. The short rib ravioli was a standout, and the apple pie alone is reason enough to come back. We also had the striped bass, the vegetable tart, and their fun take on fish and chips, and every dish was a hit. Unfortunately, I don’t remember our server’s name, but she was wonderful. She was so kind, attentive, and truly made us feel taken care of throughout the evening. The food feels Michelin-inspired, but the vibe is still cozy in that perfect neighborhood way, refined but still comfortable. We left already talking about when we’d return. This will absolutely become a regular spot for us, and we can’t wait to come back and try brunch.

Every single bite was perfect. If I’m ever wanting to eat as much as I possibly can in one sitting i'm going to Arlo. The flavors are unlike any restaurant. I love how each dish makes me try a new or unexpected flavor but not in a way that overpowers the dish. It makes me appreciate the food so much more and want to order everything off the menu. We sat in the covered and heated patio which was so cozy and welcoming. Absolutely dine here any chance you get.It will be worth it.

You can tell Arlo is a labor of love for Chef Milo Carrier, who amongst other things was a sous chef at San Francisco’s Boulevard restaurant, back in the days when it had the Michelin plaque on its wall. Arlo’s decor is minimalist and positively spartan, presumably as Carrier wants you to focus more of your attention on the food, rather than the surroundings. Luckily, that’s a bet that pays off as the food was excellent. We were there for New Years Eve with a special four course menu, of which the highlights were a simple, almost delicate tasting goats cheese and caramelized onion tart, and a more bombastic duck with a cranberry and Chianti glaze, and poached pear. Service was earnest, though not without a few small hiccups - an example being that the bread was brought out without butter, and not corrected until we gently pointed it out. Overall though the staff worked hard and were pleasant. Definitely worth a stop if you’re in Salt Lake City.

So glad we tried this restaurant recommended by a friend for dinner. Everything was presented beautifully and the preparation was spot on. Elevated cuisine done well. Plentiful vegetarian choices. Fresh and modern décor and ambience.

Wonderful Valentine’s eve dinner. Great menu set up to try several items and share. Also enjoyed the cocktails, wine, dessert and coffee. The food and service were both exceptional.

Arlo is an amazing experience! I went there 2 times already and each plate is a unique and creative experience! This is mostly a place if you like to discover flavours.

I come to Arlo for a few reasons. It just feels good in here and the cuisine cannot be beat. It’s my go to relaxing yet delicate brunch location. When I’m looking for a dinner entree with high quality ingredients, beautiful presentation, mouth watering flavors and textures Arlo offers everything I’m looking for. Last night I had the beet salad with the duck breast. These items keep me coming back every time. With every bite I can taste the years of dedication perfection Milo has put into his craft. The wait staff is always so kind, and helpful in pairing the right drink for the entrees selected. Thank you to all of the Arlo staff for creating such a warm atmosphere and experience. It’s a fine dining experience with the relaxing feel you’d get at grandmas house.

The food at Arlo is exciting and fun, better than any restaurant in this city or within 700 miles from here.

We went here for date night (our 2nd time there). We made reservations for their patio, which is really nice, but it was a bit hot as our reservation was at 6pm and the sun was hitting us pretty hard. I would recommend going later in the evening during the summer. Parking is tough as it's street parking, but we found a spot no problem. For appetizers, we enjoyed the bread and butter, cheese and crackers, polenta, and tomato salad. Our favorite was the cheese and crackers, which included a beautiful homemade cracker with brie, apricot, and mustard. For drinks, we had the gin, vodka, mezcal, and tequila cocktails. My personal favorite was the vodka cocktail, which was super refreshing. For our entrees, I had the ravioli and my husband had the fish. Honestly I wasn't too big of a fan of the ravioli. It was beautifully crafted and well presented but I wasn't a fan of the texture of the pasta. My husband enjoyed his fish dish. We were too full for dessert. Every dish and cocktail was beautifully crafted and our server did a great job taking care of us. We'll definitely be back a 3rd time. Final bill came to about $170 before tip, which felt reasonable for the quality of food and portions.

Very dissapointed.. We had a 6:15 dinner reservation , walked in on time and saw we were one of three couples there. We asked if we could sit on the patio to which the host simply stated for reservation only(there was no one there) Not the end of the world tho. We sat down in the middle of the resturant, the host got us water and handed us menus. We waited 10 min making eye contact and even signaling to a water if we could start our ouder. Nothing.... Every staff member was twiddling their thumbs not doing anything. I even raised my hand to see is someone would notice. I understand if the resturant is slammed but again we were two of eight customers in there! From reading the reviews and things people had to say we were so exiced to dine here, very sad to feel unnoticed and wish we could have gotten service. Hope this doesnt happen to anyone else.

This was a fun dinner! The restaurant itself is clean and cozy. Seems like a house-turned-restaurant. Very cool to see the open kitchen and the artists at work! The bread and butter was unique and very enjoyable. I loved getting rip off the layers of bread that were both flakey and soft. They actually gave us an extra appetizer of empanadas since our food was taking a while--honestly I didn't really notice it was taking long. But the empanadas turned out to be my favorite thing I ate! For my main, I got the ravioli which was good. It was flavorful and moist, but it was missing some kind of sauce and was definitely not enough food. Overall, this was a good spot that I might check out every year or so to see their updated menus and try new dishes.

Ok so being British seeing the picture of "fish and chips" on yelp had me crashing out BUT this place had great reviews and was close to the hotel so I bit my tongue And glad I did! The "fish and chips" was light and though hard to taste the fish had a good taste. Chicory salad was amazing, whatever dressing they had along with the goat cheese really hit all the right spots Vegetable tart was great along with the greens on top, not sure what it was but a single sprig contained great flavour The ravioli was mid, creamy beat, makes for a nice visual when you get into The samosas were damn good, especially the sauce on top Highlight of this was dessert which we nearly skipped on. The chocolate mousse was MELT IN YOUR MOUTH AND (more so than normal mousse) and the cream on top (I hate cream) really had me gobbling and contemplating getting another but alas my a1c scores have been making me ration Anyway, lovely , calm inside with equally calm and lovely service. Downside is the small dishes, as I said. I wanted to gobble. But if you're not a gobbler, then roll on up to arlo

So happy that I discovered this absolute hidden gem of a restaurant during my short stay in SLC!! (Disclaimer: by hidden gem, I'm referring to its unassuming location in a residential neighborhood and reservations being wide open on a Saturday night... but it's otherwise very evident that Arlo is widely renowned for top tier dining among local foodies). I was impressed by each and every dish that we ordered, which was painstakingly prepared with stellar presentation and top-notch quality of ingredients. The composition of each platter was very thoughtful, with disparate ingredients skillfully paired together creating one unique flavor and texture experience after another. My favorite dish of the night was the stuffed rainbow trout, but I would also highly recommend the seafood stew as well as the bread and butter. Between the two of us, we shared 2 appetizers and 2 of their "small plates" (actually reasonably portioned) and left feeling satiated not stuffed. Highly, highly recommend Arlo for a fine-dining experience minus the fine dining price tag. Perfect for a nice date night or special occasion, but they also serve breakfast which unsurprisingly has rave reviews as well. Pro-tip: they have a dedicated parking lot that is below the restaurant -- next to their outdoor patio, you have to drive below ground and parking spots are typically wide open as the lot is pretty lowkey/not well-demarcated and everyone is usually trying to find street parking, which can be a challenge as the neighborhood is pretty hilly with a lot of traffic at nighttime.

Delicious food in a cute place. Ambiance: I love houses that are renovated to be restaurants. There's always something very cozy and homey about them and this restaurant definitely had that feeling. Plenty of spacing on the inside, seats facing the food prep area if that's your vibe, and a really nice patio as well. Service: Quick and friendly with nice recommendations for wine and food choices. Food: I got the bread, fish and chips, empanadas, peppers, the risotto, and the lemon tart. The bread was delicious and flaky with a rosemary take. The fish and chips were an interesting recreation that was light and refreshing. The empanadas were also delicious with a good amount of heft that went well with the light salad that came with it. The risotto was a nice embodiment of the fall season. The lemon tart was just the right amount of tart to round out the meal with a nice balance in contrast with the heavier risotto. They also had a very nice wine selection of your more common varieties and less common that were nice to try. Overall, cute restaurant with good food. It appears that the menu rotates so I will definitely be back to continue trying their creations.

Simply stupendous! The menu is small and looks to be simple but that belies the amazing richness and flavors in the food! The atmosphere and setting is modern and lively. Service was wonderful! My favorite place in SLC for sure!

Cute little place tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. The breakfast is excellent here. I forgot to take a picture of the Simple Eggs and bacon plate, but trust me it was good. I did manage to grab a pic of the cinnamon roll and wow! It wasn't too sweet and it had the perfect amount of cream cheese. Adding this to my brunch rotation.

Went two times and great both times! Very clean, simple, and fun. We were at the bar area the first time and then went for the outdoors seating the second time. Both areas were nice; indoors was definitely more of a dimmer and heavier ambiance because we went for dinner.

Tried almost every single thing on the menu. We are still trying to figure out which one was the best. The most unexpected was the Fish and Chips. I wanted to order that plate over and over again. Thank you Milo and crew!!!! You're incredibly awesome. We'll be back!

This place is consistently excellent! The food is fantastic. Parking is a bit of a pain, but it is worth the trip.

On the good side: Pudding cake was very good. Our server was also very very nice and polite. Gorgeous lamps for the place. They are beautiful. Putting lillies as decoration was a mistake, as their odor is very strong and suffocating for most people. It made the whole place smell very unpleasant. Raviolis 1/5 - were not raviolis, but dumplings (?). After browsing through socials of restaurant, I figured that those were actually called cappelletti. Nonetheless, those are two distinct dishes, and you should not be advertising raviolis as them. This is not good and is misguiding. The chef was trying to cook them al dente, but it ended up badly, as the dough of cappelletti is much thicker than raviolis, which made all of them tasting like rubber. The flavors were also lacking, making the dish bland. I wish there was something to make it more interesting. Sour cream - might sound simple, but would have been a very very good choice. Risotto 3/5. It was average. I liked the addition of nuts to it. But it definitely lacked salt. Fish and chips 1/5. Very unbalanced with each chip tasting differently due to different amount of ingredients in each chip. Was too overly bitter, as it had a ton of mustard seeds. One of the chips was also spicy out of nowhere? Cheese and crackers 1/5. Same thing as fish and chips. Poor combination of flavors. That preserved apricot mustard should have been much sweeter or more acidic to give a better pairing with brie cheese. Pudding Cake 5/5 Delicious! Actually, one of the best desserts I tried in SLC. The cake was moist, and a very successful choice of ice cream to put it with - i believe it was butterscotch. Not too overly sweet, which is a hugeee plus. One tip - serve it on a bigger plate. I would expect more attention to each dish as the menu is small (it's not bad that it's small) and there is barely any choice.

We searched for restaurants in SLC that people considered deserving to be in the Michelin guide and Arlo restaurant kept popping up. After our experience here, I completely agree with these people! Very innovative food, exceptional service, and honestly, the prices for each dish were very reasonable. Arlo is located in a quiet neighborhood and has its own parking lot, which is a huge plus (just go down the driveway). Service/Ambiance: The inside has a rustic, modern feel. There were lots of 2-4 person tables that could probably be made into 6 person tables. There's a whole outdoor area inside a canopy and looked to have ample heat lamps. We opted for the bar seats inside facing the open kitchen and we absolutely loved it. We're no professional cooks but we appreciated watching the head chef and the other chefs work well together in a calm manner. It was enjoyable seeing them plate each dish. Each dish came out fairly quickly and we didn't have to wait to finish a dish before the next one came. Shout out to our server Kyle for a great service. Food: The dinner menu is simply laid out in one page, making everything easy to see. Our server explained which parts are appetizers, shareables, and main dishes. My husband and I shared each dish and we were pretty stuffed at the end. Usually in restaurants like this, I can easily say that some dishes are good to skip. But we were pleasantly surprised with each dish and we'd order these same items again. For drinks, I ordered Rum Cocktail ($12) and he ordered Mescal Cocktail ($12). The Rum drink was sweeter, which is how I like my drinks. -Bread and butter ($5): crispy outside and soft in the inside. The thyme was apparent and made it so flavorful that I didn't have to use too much butter like I usually do with other breads that aren't as tasty. -Small potatoes ($10): petite whole potatoes in brie fondue, duck fat, and crispy bits-- this was surprisingly sooo delicious. Potatoes were cooked nicely and the toppings together worked very well. -Fish and Chips ($9): housemade chips topped with fish. You'd think everything on it was salty but the flavors of each ingredient worked so well together. Must get! -Vegetable Tart ($14): also a must get! -Duck Ravioli ($29): main dish; pasta was cooked nicely and there was a generous amount of duck inside the raviolis. -Lemon Tart ($12): we asked our server what his most favorite dessert was and this is what he said. My husband who usually doesn't appreciate lemon desserts actually liked this a lot. Overall: We were definitely impressed with Arlo and I highly recommend this restaurant. I believe they have a rotating menu so I'd love to come back here if we're ever back in the area again. Make sure to make reservations!

The food was fresh, creative, and delicious. We had a vegetarian and a GF diner in our party and everyone had plenty of choices. The fish and chips were great and the polenta and risotto were a hit. Everything we had was really good!!

I chose Arlo based on the reviews of other Yelpers and the beautiful photos of their dishes. I feel like my expectations were met and everything was as delicious and beautiful as I had hoped. I started with a spritz cocktail, which was very citrus-forward and light. It included a sprig of fresh sage leaves, which I broke off to chew with each sip. Delightful!! This was followed by what was listed as a 'chicory' salad, but came with radicchio (is radicchio a kind of chicory? Maybe...) - it was perfection - colorful, flavorful, and a good portion size. Besides the radicchio leaves, the salad had a 'pesto' of yellow squash which was the base, and it was 'decorated' with fried sage leaves, edible flower petals, chunks of a kind of feta or goat cheese, nuts, and strips of either cucumber or zucchini which were rolled. I loved this so much I will be recreating it at home... For my main dish I had the roasted potatoes small plate which came with roasted and smashed blue potatoes and a chunky 'sauce' made with chorizo and almonds. This dish was balanced and savory and I also really enjoyed it. For the table, we got the obligatory bread with 'quite possibly the world's best butter' (so says the menu) and it lived up to the hype; we could have ordered one per person... My dinner companion selected the braised short rib ravioli for her main - there was a generous portion of fresh-made ravioli pockets filled with the beef, sitting on top of a pesto with some radicchio leaves and sprinkling of grated cheese - she used the bread to wipe the bowl clean. We also decided to indulge in dessert - my friend went with our server's suggestion to get the chocolate pudding, and loved it - a serving of scratch-made dark-chocolate pudding on top of berries macerated in sherry served with a kind of toffee or caramel crisp. Decadent but not over the top. I opted for the lime tart, which came in a pastry shell and was decorated with mini meringues and dollops of what I think was a raspberry puree - it was tangy and complimentary to the tart, but I could not distinguish the specific flavor. The consistency of the tart filing was velvety, and overall I thought this was very balanced between sweet and tart. The bill for 2 people, several courses, including alcohol and dessert, was over $100 including tax and tip, but I felt that was on par with similar dining experiences in other cities when considering the quality ingredients, visually-appealing plating and excellent service. Definitely recommended! Note that parking is free but on the street, and the restaurant is located in a residential area, so you may have to walk a little. There is also a beautiful outside seating area. The day we visited we felt was too hot for us, but several other diners took advantage of being outside.

quite a delicious brunch with FRIED EGG SANDWICH jalapeno cheddar, dressed arugula, poppy seed bun and sausage tasty but also heavy on salt and super butter potatoes RICE EGG hadfried rice, gochujang, kimchi, two fried eggs, sesame shiitake crumbles. inspired by bibimbap - pretty good shared the salad of roasted beets, best available greens, toasted hazelnut (yummy), sherry maple vinaigrette

Food is original and tasty. Serving sizes are not too large. The progression from small to large plates make dining with friends a joy.

Arlo never fails to be an exceptional experience. The ever-changing menu is always surprising and so incredibly creative. Descriptions and photos even can never do justice to the food. The depth of flavors, layer upon layer are just astonishing. We always tend to over order because we want to taste so many things and they are all delicious! Last night we went for our anniversary; both the food and the service were both great. The place was busy inside and out. We can highly recommend the bread (always), the chicory salad, the samosas, the risotto!!! and the pasta. The risotto alone was worth going there for--truly a revelation and so beautiful!

I am a foodie, and in my opinion Arlo is the best restaurant in Salt Lake City. Recently, I had brunch there. I ordered the quiche. It wasn't just quiche, it was different from any quiche I have tasted. It is beautifully presented and tastes amazing, An individual serving with greens on top. I reluctantly allowed my brunch friends to take a bite. I highly recommend Arlo for brunch and/or dinner.

Real nice change of venue & food choices. Service was great and food was great. We sat outside & the view & weather was perfect

Amazing ambience which resembles northern European style restaurant with indoor seating as well as a very nice closed glass patio. Has an open kitchen with an amazing chef, cooking in front of your eyes with the fresh ingredients and great combination of flavors. . The staff is very nice and they work as fast as they can but the place was busy . We went there for brunch on Sunday and we made a reservation for 1 o'clock, but they accommodated us earlier and they also gave us a choice to be inside or outside because it was a very hot day.

All, is a small, hidden gem. I'm a fan of the patio, so I wait until the Ut weather is good. The service is great. It's small plates, tapas so don't go expecting a 16 oz. Rib eye and a massive baked potato. However, they are all uniques and quite a few are excellent!

The staff and the food were excellent. Yummy pastas, fish and chips and omg the cabbage.

The restaurant is very pretty. The food tasted good, but it was in tiny portions. The service was terrible, although the server was very friendly.We had food on the table before we ever got our first drinks. Even though this restaurant is very close to the Salt Palace, so surely there are often groups of people there who have expense accounts to document, the restaurant refuses to give separate checks. All in all, the restaurant does not deliver in quality for the prices on the menu. I left hungry.

I really wanted to like Arlo more than I did but I didn't really love anything that we got. I do think that it's a cool space, I love how the entire kitchen is open, the blue subway tiles look awesome. I want to believe that it's better than my experience, maybe just not a great run of the menu. I would not hate to go again, but there are a bunch of other places I would prefer to try first.

My husband's friend was a little intimidated since he finds me to be a bit foodie, but in the end he had a wonderful experience. The service was perfect and charming. Only my husband got a cocktail but upon tasting it I immediately wished I'd ordered one for myself. It was whisky based and the perfect blend of sweet and tart. We got two orders of the bread and it was like a brioche in the shape of a cinnamon roll with herbs and that magical butter. My husband and his friend enjoyed their ravioli and I had the empanadas and the fresh tomato salad. The combo was perfect and the flavors were impeccable. I loved the crunchy fresh vegetables mixed with the creamy base. Last time I was here it was Covid so the tables are more filled in now but it never got loud in there on a weekend evening.

Fantastic restaurant. Great food, service, and ambiance. The fish entree was delicious.

Another gem in SLC! The food is super unique. Stumbled on this place during an unexpected visit to UT. We shared several apps and each was better than the next. Super unique dishes and impeccable service.

We love this place! We had an incredible valentine's dinner here. The service was timely and great and the food was creative and very tasty. We will definitely be back!

Wonderful creative dishes. We loved the vegetable tart and the risotto. Great ambiance and service. Thank you!

The service was impeccable. The dishes were served in consistent timing where you'd just finished the previous option and were eagerly awaiting the next to arrive. I chose the rum cocktail from their menu and it was one of the better rum drinks I've had. It sounded amazing, and I'm not usually a rum drinker, unless it was a mojito, but the coconut and other ingredients listed on the menu intrigued me. The guy I was on a date with had made reservations at 7:30pm and we got there early, and he was kind of throwing a fit that someone was at the table he'd reserved, and expected to be seated then even though we were early, and they handled him really well.

Arlo is a trendy seasonally inspired restaurant tucked between houses near the Capitol. The whiskey cocktail was fresh and easily downed. My fish entree was delicious. Very fresh flavors and meaty salmon. But overall, I think this place is doing too much. The seasonal tomatoes were coated in seasoning, you could barely taste the produce. The brie, apricot spread, and sesame cracker had too many flavors going on. The bread was more parsley than anything else. We also waited 15 minutes before we were helped by a server, meanwhile there were only 2 other tables seated inside and I was staring at 4 servers huddled in a circle chatting behind the counter. He also skipped over 2 people at our table while taking drink orders, and couldn't remember what we ordered, and between 8 people we only ordered 3 different dishes. It didn't seem like he really cared. This restaurant concept has potential but I think they need to simplify their flavors and let the seasonal ingredients be the star. Overpriced for the experience.

This my "returned for brunch" review, and honestly it just didn't live up to the standard I came to expect from the excellent dinner we had here. I would say overall, dinner is the better choice. The hostess stand was not peopled so we spent a few minutes standing awkwardly in the lobby. The hostess showed up and saw us to our table, it was around 10:30 on a Sunday morning and very few patrons were sitting inside, but we were initially sat right next to the door to the patio and right under the air conditioning vents that were blowing full blast. Full blast being my paper printed menu was actually moving on the table. We asked to be moved and we were moved to a table with less direct exposure to air conditioning and it was fine. I was initially really excited by the menu (even without the off menu burger which apparently isn't available and unknown if/when it will return). Honestly the menu descriptions oversold every dish. My girlfriend got the French toast and it was 14 dollars for a SINGLE PIECE of French toast. French toast also needs to be on a soft piece of bread like brioche, not a crusty sourdough. Miss. I had the egg sandwich (14 dollars) with sausage (+4 dollars) and it was ok, it was piled high with arugula which was an odd choice. Egg was super undercooked (transparent whites) but the sausage was good. Best thing about the dish was the potato wedges. They had a decent hot sauce that was very spicy and added a needed kick and acid. Coffee was rich and black and good. My dad had the two egg plate and it was just eggs, potatoes and sourdough toast (14 dollars). Service was ok, our waitress didn't seem like she cared much about the menu, the food or any semblance of conversation, but she did her job. Honestly the brunch menu food isn't worth it for the premium price you're paying. There are better brunches within walking distance with heartier portions and a warmer atmosphere.

Food (4 of 5): there is clearly a very talented chef involved at Arlo. The menu here is excellent and, as we prefer, changes frequently. with some dishes like the cheese & crackers and the fish & chips, the portion sizes are out of balance. For example, the amount of cheese (brie) and preserved apricot mustard is so tiny that the dish is really more just crackers with two or three bites of cracker with some cheese. It's just gives the frustrating impression that someone in accounting is making decisions about the menu. The dish was delicious, but we were disappointed. The fish and chips is another example, with house made chips with trout, crème fraiche, etc on top. It's a cleaver idea and a potentially delicious dish. Unfortunately, the amount of trout was so tiny per chip that none of the flavor came through. The empanada, risotto, and other dishes we had here were excellent. We're all in favor of small bites style menus, but ensuring the small bites have well-balanced and interesting flavors is key. When it's just a big potato chip with such a small bit of fish that there is no discernible flavor to it ... well, it's disappointing. I am being generous with the rating as we did thoroughly enjoy our meal and the positives outweighed the negatives. Service (5): attentive with excellent familiarity with the menu and dishes. Atmosphere (5): both the inside and the patio here are nicely done. Kudos to Arlo for the design including the focus on covering/softening up hard services so that the inside dining area is not an echo chamber.

The meal at Arlo was amazing. The food is served in 4 courses so you get an opportunity to try a wide variety of dishes and flavors. The service was excellent. The meal was paced properly and our server was attentive while still allowing us to enjoy our evening. My favorite thing is their non-alcoholic menu, in particular the mocktail. You get to let go of decision making and still get an amazing drink. The decor is simple while still being beautiful and elegant. The restaurant is small which really allows for an intimate meal. Overall, a really amazing restaurant that I would definitely recommend. There is a free parking lot behind the restaurant as well as free on-street parking.

Hubs and I had reservations for 5:45 on a weeknight. We sat in the small dining room, maybe 9 tables. More seating is on the patio but it was a hot evening so I wasn't sure if that would be comfortable. It is very shady so it probably would have been fine. We had sparkling water and the bread and butter. The bread comes wrapped in a roll form and I peeled off slices from the roll. It is quite rich and delicious. The fish and chips were a flavorful delight and there was plenty of fish on each chip. I quite enjoyed the tomato salad with fresh garden tomatoes and a pistachio crunch. The pork entree was ok but with fall flavors I wasn't quite ready for. I think they specialize in small plates which were quite good. The chocolate mousse was thick and tasty with real whipped cream and garnished with thin sliced dried apricots. Service was spot on. The location is very walkable for downtown venues. It is definitely worth a visit.

Great experience at this place. Dishes were creative and well balanced. Flavors on point. Good choice of dishes and wines. Nice dining room & great view from chef's counter seats. 1st time visiting a top restaurant in SLC, was gladly impressed.

Food and service is always impeccable. Also recognition from the kitchen that there are "off the list" wines was a lovely surprise. Always a great evening at Arlo.

To preface, our party ordered every dish on the menu, cocktails, and two bottles of wine - unlikely to be a more comprehensive reviewer perspective. In sum, a distinctly underwhelming experience, with the caveat that most of the deficiencies could be corrected. Service speed with regard to drinks was painfully slow, dishes were bland at best, and menu titles were comically divorced from the reality of the dishes. To be more specific, there is no reason to attempt "innovative" plating if the base product is poor. A poorly cooked trout filet stuffed with some potato derivative is just that - no matter if you roll it into something resembling a tire and flip it for $35 or simply throw it on a styrofoam plate as the grill master of your neighborhood's block party. A severely undercooked rack of lamb will never overcome that basic detractor. I'll spare you the review of the other ten dishes - in sum, the restaurant equivalent of a fleet of needlessly bizarre concept vehicles (lacking even a powertrain) at the North American International Auto Show. The property itself leaves nothing to be desired for a snappy neighborhood joint. Despite the service speed being catastrophically stuck in first gear, servers and host were charming and generally helpful. Willing to give another shot, but only if the menu curator and kitchen safely splashes down to earth from what I can only charitably assume has been an unexpected orbit of Neptune.

Best chef I've ever seen in all of Salt Lake City. Attention to detail environment was calm acoustics were felt dampened to your own table, service was outstanding, and food was beyond incredible.

Service was great! Food interesting and tasty. Thank you for a lovely dinner experience.

Arlo is our favorite dining location. it's tucked into a neighborhood in Marmalade and the friendly staff and open kitchen really add to the vibe. great cocktails, wine list, and the menu is just so good. Milo (chef/owner) is so fun to watch in the kitchen and he comes up with some awesome dishes, seasonal with freshest veggies and spices so the menu is always fresh and unique! We like to try it all and the portion sizes are perfect to share. Great celebration location- however it soon joined our regular rotation!!!!

Had a great first experience at Arlo for brunch! I had specifically booked a table outside and it ended up raining the day we went. Luckily they have a great covered patio. The food was beautiful and delicious! There is a parking lot below the restaurant and street parking available. I can't wait to go back to try their dinner options!

Cool little spot with satisfying food in a relaxing environment. Always a go to when in the neighborhood.

Everything was delicious and fresh. The risotto was the highlight for me. The samosas and the bread and butter were also standouts. The restaurant itself is lovely, the outside seating was very pleasant and had a bit of a view of the city which was very nice. We were able to take our dogs as well, which was great. Service was also impeccable. Overall would definitely return.

Arlo is hip, stylish and contemporary. It is located in the avenues close to the Utah state capital. Arlo is open for dinner only Wednesday through Saturday. The food is creatively executed American cuisine. The menu is straight forward with an emphasis on small plates. On the night we visited there were only 4 entrees named Ravioli, Risotto, Fish and Pork. The cocktail selection is equally broad, crafty and creative i.e Bourbon, Vodka, Gin, Tequila and Gin. One very creative cocktail for each. The restaurant offer a global selection of wines by the glass or bottle and another generous selection of beers. Beet Salad-fresh and beautiful Empanada-pork filled delight Bread and Butter- changes often but last night was a beautiful, perfect, delicious popover with pure butter Potato-perfectly cooked Roasted Potatoes We had delicious Black Risotto and chanterelle, Sweet Pea Ravioli in a crisp broth and the Pork Loin cooked to perfection and delicious. Can't wait to go back. All in cost including tip about $80 per person.

Service and ambiance was good. Food was creative and tasty - beet salad, samosas, ravioli, cabbage entree (the best thing we were served). The striped bass was disappointing though - unexceptional taste and tiny portion - certainly not worth the price.

Hands down my favorite spot in SLC. The atmosphere is simple , clean and modern. The menu is AMAZING, cocktails included. I have never had a dish I haven't enjoyed! Wish I had a picture of every meal to share with you. Great special occasion & date spot!
