• Italian • Salt Lake City
Booked 40 times today
Osteria Amore came to life because we believe in the power of food to change your day, or in our case, change your life. Owner Eduardo Daja has been working in restaurants since he was a teenager growing up in Italy, and his time in culinary school only strengthened his passion for food. After culinary school, Ed stayed in Bologna to work at a family-owned restaurant. He moved to Utah eight years ago, and found himself missing his first love, food. For the past three years, Ed has been managing an Italian restaurant while also maintaining a career in tech and finally made the life-changing decision to open his own restaurant. That big decision was made possible for Ed when he met Marco Cuttaia, Osteria Amore’s executive chef and partner. Ed’s training in Bologna, considered the food capital of Italy, and Marco’s upbringing in Palermo, known for its incredible street food, bridge northern and southern Italian culinary tradition in a way that’s never been done in Salt Lake City.

    Dined today
    I have now dined at Veneto at least five times, along with most of SLC's other top-rated establishments (Urban Hill, Walter's Capital Grill, etc.), and I believe Veneto is hands-down the single best restaurant in the city if not the state. The ambience, the service, the attention to detail -- all are simply astonishing. It is the closest thing to a Michelin-star restaurant I know of in the state. The proprietor, Marco, is an extraordinary host, who is totally committed to excellence and who has trained his staff to introduce each dish and glass of wine with articulate detail, from ingredients to preparation. The entire evening is a work of art. My one concern, and it has only happened this one time, is that there was a large and rather boisterous party in the restaurant when we were there, and the acoustics did not absorb the sound well enough -- it was on the loud side. But that did not detract from the quality of the evening, which was four stars. I will be back.
