★★★★★ 5.0 Michele Valimont · Jan 2026

Highly recommend this historical diner. The reason I won't divulge (read the back of the menu). The food portions you will not go hungry. Delicious 😋... we had the 3 egg omelet, Spinach, King of Hearts, and Asparagus. The biscuits and the fresh homemade jam do not pass this up! No reservations are taken ever. When going with a group make sure everyone is there so you can get seated. Adam was our server and he is a gentle giant with great attention to detail and customer service. Definitely ask for him! 😊

Cute diner. Absolutely love that its on some random mountain path and theres beautiful mountains on all sides. Would be great to sit outside during warmer season but still nice to have a window booth and look at the snow like I did. Got the pulled pork Benedict that our server recommended and it was delicious. My bf got eggs, bacon, sausage and hash. Quick and fast service. Delicious hearty breakfast. They also gave free biscuits that were nice and fluffy.

Ruth’s was such a great stop; located perfectly between SLC and Park. We ordered the smoked salmon salad which was good. The reuben sandwich was delicious and I highly recommend! The biscuits were a great starter too. The aesthetic is barely changed since it’s opening. Great vibe and great servers.

Ruth’s Diner, a cute and quaint restaurant off Immigration Canyon toward East Canyon, is a charming, rustic restaurant. They have a gorgeous outdoor patio where we sat near heaters as we were served our delicious salads all while listening to the sound of running water near by. Great for dates or groups. Outstanding service. Beautiful drive. Highly recommend.

On our recent visit to Salt Lake City, we searched Google Maps to find a restaurant no too far from us. From the reviews, Ruth’s Diner sounded like a solid choice. While the restaurant has a certain charm and story, we were overall underwhelmed by our visit. The huge biscuits were quite a treat, but we spent more time battling flies than comfortably enjoying our meal. My wife and I split a fried chicken sandwich which was “okay.” Tasted fine, just thin on the meat. They did not have Splenda (which in this day and age I just don’t understand), but ordered an ice tea anyway. The waitress didn’t tell me beforehand the only tea they have was black mint. As a Texan, that just didn’t work for me. We finished off the meal with their peach and blueberry cobbler. It was much more ice cream an
