Other Place Restaurant, Salt Lake City

I went to The Other Place restaruant Saturday afternoon with my mom. It was okay. We wanted to go to Sakura Sushi, but they are closed till 5:30 pm on Saturdays! We tried Kyoto, but it was too busy - thanks goodness. I did not want to eat there My picked The Other Place as we drove by on 300 S. and about 500 East in Salt Lake City. It was okay. The service was great. Our server was helpful in describing some of their Greek dishes to me. She even pronounced them with a proper Greek accent. Afraid to try something too exotic, I settled on a gyro with fries. My gyro was average. It seemed to made of the same pressed meat you find at every Greek restaraunt in Utah. I forgot to ask for no onions. So, I spent a few minutes picking them off - and there were a lot. My fries were under cooked. Even the pita bread seemed like it needed a few more minutes in the oven. Our dolmathes (ground beef and rice, I think, wrapped in grape leaves) were pretty good. The best part of the lunch were my mom's hash browns. They were awesome - the best I've had in a long, long time. Definitely the highlight of the meal. I wished I'd ordered breakfast like my mom. The Other Place is not a bad place to eat. It was clean, the people were very friendly, and it was not a bad bill. But, it was not great, and it is unlikely I'll return. One major disadvantage is that this particular location is downtown - way too far into Salt Lake City for my liking.

I GAVE THE PLACE A SECOND CHANCE (BAD MISTAKE) THE HOSTESS WAS RUDE ACTED LIKE AN OLD SCHOOL MARM LIKE THE NUNS AT ST JOSEPHS WERE SCOLDING ME FOR SOMETING TRIVIAL THE SOUVLAKI PLACE ACROSS THE STREET WAS BETTER AND 50% LESS WHAT HAPPEND?: THIS PLACE USED TO BE GOOD I HATE IT WHEN THE HELP DOSENT CARE ANYMORE!

Consistently good, and excellent prices. Great as a brunch spot. Very good greek coffee.

I went along with some co-workers for breakfast. Our server was totally stressed (although we made reservations 1 week in advance) and was a little rude, telling us she was going to get confussed because we were not making up our minds with our orders. Then, when we got our food, it was not as wonderful as other times. I love this place, and I recommend it to many others, but this time ... wasn't pleased at all.

Good breakfast food, but my husband didn't care for his gyro.

I've been going to The Other Place for years for lunch and never have I had better service than at this restaraunt. Their food is consistently good, the service is great. It's a great place for lunch anytime!

Great Place! It is kinda a locals secret because you wouldnt spot the entance from the street. I take my out of town friends here from breakfast. We love it.

I guess I forgot to leave a tip. The manager got my phone number off the check and called me at home and scolded me! hahah Never again! good food though
