14. Union Grill
Kicking off our guide to the best Ogden restaurants is Union Grill, located in Ogden’s historic Union Station. Union Grill has been one of the best restaurants in Ogden for many years, but that doesn’t mean it should be overlooked. This Ogden staple serves American eats and unique sodas on tap. Some of our favorite dishes here are chicken carbonara, savory beef medallions, and lemon butter chicken. If you fancy yourself something sweet, definitely reach for the bread pudding as well.

13. Ogden Beer Company
If you’re craving a good burger or incredible Brussels sprouts, Ogden Beer Company is the best Ogden restaurant for you. A plentiful menu, great outdoor and indoor seating, and delicious food give Ogden Beer Company a solid standing on our guide. To say there is something for everybody on this menu would be an understatement. Crispy Brussels sprouts, Tennessee grilled cheese, and buffalo mac and cheese are highlights on this pub menu. Ogden Beer Company is great for an impromptu lunch, but you will want to make a reservation if you’re going for dinner.

12. All About Tacos
All About Tacos has made quite a reputation for itself. New to the best Ogden restaurant scene, this trendy, chic, industrial space is serving up some incredibly flavorful creations. The picture-perfect interior complete with a cute indoor swing and neon lights is impressive, but the tacos are even more so. If you’re feeling extra hungry, create your own taco platter, choosing what kind and how many you want. We’re privy to the pastor tacos and the chicken fire burrito. Make it your own with the toppings and salsa bar just to the right of the cashier. You really will want to taco bout this place.

10. Roosters Brewery
Roosters isn’t over-the-top glamorous, and the menu isn’t much different than other brewpubs. But that’s precisely why we love it—they do the favorites so incredibly well, and it’s a spot where loyal Ogdenites come back time after time. From cheese curds to fish and chips, there are plenty of options to choose from. We’re huge fans of their pepper jack enchiladas, featuring the creamiest enchilada sauce in the city. Roosters earns bonus points for being family-friendly and for having some of the best home-brewed root beer of all time.

9. Pig & a Jelly Jar
This fantastic breakfast and brunch spot takes on the Ogden dining scene and holds its own. Pig & A Jelly Jar has a great menu with scrambles and southern specialties and serves the best homemade biscuits in town served with locally made jams like strawberry rhubarb and blueberry lavender. Our favorite entree is the ham hash, made with ham, potatoes, red peppers, onions, local bacon, and sauteed greens, topped with lemon aioli and two sunny side eggs. Another solid order is the chicken & waffles if you’re feeling something sweeter.

8. Aroy-D Thai
After grilling Ogden locals for their favorite Thai food restaurants in the city, Aroy-D Thai took the gold without question. Pretty nondescript from the outside, Aroy-D Thai is a great lesson in not judging a book by its cover. Dedicated to featuring classic Thai favorites, you can find solid massaman curry, authentic tom kha soup, and seasonal pumpkin curry. Female Foodie favorites include the yellow curry and basil stir fry. And who would we be if we didn’t remind you to order mango sticky rice to finish the meal?

7. Wimpy & Fritz
Tucked alongside Park Boulevard is Wimpy & Fritz, a Latin-inspired eatery situated in a beautifully designed building. Serving daily lunch and dinner and Saturday brunch, Wimpy and Fritz’s culturally curated menu reflects fresh, authentic, and homemade entrees that will keep you coming back for more. We highly recommend the borracho por vida and the O.G. taco plate for entrees. And don’t forget to order the churros!

6. The Sonora Grill
One of the absolute best restaurants in Ogden is undeniably The Sonora Grill. Locals love it, visitors love it, and you’re going to love it too. We’re talking brick walls, exposed beams, and refined Mexican cooking at this locally-owned cantina. The flavors in every dish here are so well executed, but be sure to order the two ceviche options, the chile relleno, and the taquitos.

5. The Angry Goat
Angry Goat is a pub and bar that features goat art in their entryway and food that can’t be missed. Be sure to bring your ID to this 21+ Ogden restaurant to enjoy the incredible menu in an industrial-modern-meets-mountain-cabin establishment. Start with the Angry Goat Balls—crispy, flavorful mushroom and risotto perfection. How could you resist? Then you’ll want to order the avocado BLT with spicy bacon. You read that right—spicy bacon. It’s an absolute game changer. Fair warning: once you go spicy, you can’t go back.

4. WB’s Eatery
Located on the west side of The Monarch building, WB’s Eatery is one of the very best Ogden restaurants. You’ll love visiting this cozy cafe for breakfast, lunch, dinner, drinks, and even shopping and events! The menu has Brazilian influence and we are here for it. Start with the daily bruschetta before moving onto the chimichurri steak and eggs, french toast, or the chimichurri steak sandwich. You’ll be delightfully full and happy by the end of the meal and entertained by the entire ambiance and experience of WB’s.

3. Hanamaru Japanese
Small but mighty, Hanamaru absolutely deserves a spot in our top three best Ogden restaurants. A hidden gem run by a husband and wife duo native to Japan, Hanamaru is the place for anyone after the best Japanese cuisine in Ogden. From Ramen Day (every Saturday from 11:00-1:00) to gorgeous sushi rolls, it’s ALL amazing. If you can’t decide what to order on your first visit, get the tonkatsu dinner with pork cutlet and a sushi roll or two. We love the tonkotsu ramen during Ramen Day as well. With only six tables, Hanamaru takes reservations (and encourages you to make them) and will turn you away if they’re too busy. Don’t let that scare you away though because Hanamaru is absolutely worth any wait or multiple tries to get a table.

1. Tona Sushi Bar
It’s official. We are obsessed with the best sushi in Ogden found at Tona Sushi Bar & Grill. This establishment serves some of the best sushi and Japanese cuisine in Utah with a fun and innovative flair. The service here is incredible and your waiter will give you individualized recommendations based on your preferences. We give five stars to the sashimi spoons, coconut crunch roll, black jack roll, and all the nigiri you can stomach. Don’t hesitate to ask the waiters for their recommendations. We weren’t kidding when we said Tona is innovative—their constantly changing creations cannot be missed. Pro-tip: order their cheesecake if you have room for dessert. It’s unexpectedly delicious.
