There are always new food establishments popping up (and, sadly, just as many closing). Here are a few new spots for you to try.

This South Korean bakery chain just opened in Midvale. It’s a cafeteria/self-serve style bakery with a wide selection of pastries, breads, and sandwiches.

The only thing better than a soft pretzel is probably a stuffed pretzel. Head to Holladay and stop by Knotz Stuffed Pretzels for sweet and savory options.

Roux

If you’re looking for a nice restaurant to treat yourself, Roux is the place. This neighborhood eatery, converted from a home, opened earlier this year. They offer elevated spins on classic dishes, like funeral potato pave and honey nut risotto.

On 200 S. where Even Stevens used to be now lies House of Corn. Try their tacos; they make their tortillas in-house.

Categorize this one in “new to me,” but I didn’t know that Kafe Mamai opened a brick-and-mortar store near the Gallivan Center. I’ve been a fan of their African-and-Caribbean cuisine since they started their food truck in 2019.
