Table X Makes a Strong Case for the Full Tasting Menu

The overview

Table X is positioned squarely at the expensive end of Salt Lake City dining, with structured tasting menus, optional beverage pairings and detailed presentations. That positioning is backed by a Google rating of 4.6 from 830 reviews. Across the sample of public feedback, diners repeatedly describe it as a destination for birthdays, anniversaries and other meals where the experience matters as much as any single plate.

The seven-course tasting menu receives the strongest endorsements. Several reviewers chose it for celebratory dinners, and one group also reported a successful five-course meal. Portions may look measured course by course, but the cumulative effect should not be underestimated. One diner said the longer menu left them extremely full.

Food and pairings

Specific dishes vary in the available reviews, which is consistent with a tasting-menu restaurant rather than a place built around permanent signatures. The clearest individual standouts were a pasta course with Berkshire pork and a mushroom dish praised for its balance of flavor and texture. Because each appears in only one supplied review, neither can be treated as a guaranteed staple.

What does recur is enthusiasm for the overall progression. Reviewers describe the cooking as distinctive, carefully presented and consistently enjoyable across multiple courses. A vegetarian menu also earned strong approval from a pregnant guest, suggesting that an alternative format can still feel like a complete experience rather than a secondary accommodation. Dietary needs should still be discussed with the restaurant in advance.

Both alcoholic wine pairings and non-alcoholic pairings appear in positive reports. One couple ordered one of each and shared tastes, while another celebration paired the seven-course vegetarian menu with non-alcoholic drinks. That flexibility broadens the appeal for mixed groups in which not everyone drinks alcohol. Cocktails were also praised by one party of six.

Service and setting

Service feedback is notably warm. Diners mention friendly staff and thorough explanations of each dish, an important detail when the meal depends on pacing and context. One group singled out its server, while another reported receiving bread to take home. A guest also suggested asking about a tour of the herb garden when the restaurant is not busy, though that should be viewed as an occasional extra rather than an assured part of dinner.

The room’s ambience and views add to the sense of occasion. Reviewers do not frame Table X as casual or spontaneous. The consistent picture is of a lengthy, polished evening designed for guests willing to settle in and follow the kitchen’s format.

The verdict

Table X looks best suited to diners who want a comprehensive tasting-menu experience and are comfortable with an expensive bill. The seven-course option, paired drinks and attentive explanations form the most compelling version of the restaurant described in public feedback. For a major celebration or a serious food-focused night out, its combination of ambition, hospitality and atmosphere makes it one of Salt Lake City’s stronger splurge candidates.
