I've never had a bad experience here food wise or service wise. My favorite is the Cajun pasta and I like to add shrimp. The pies and desserts are to die for and I don't even like sweets. The restaurant is also very cute and clean. Breakfast/brunch I had a crab omelette and it was delicious

This is a mainstay option in the Sugarhouse area. Directly north of Sugarhouse Park, The Dodo is a cozy and inviting restaurant. On summer nights, there's no better place to meet than on their outdoor patio. The staff here are always welcoming and attentive. They have a wide variety of food, with some standouts being the ham sandwich, chicken pasta, and their soup. A rotating selection of daily soups is what really shines and always draws us back to this spot. Honestly, if you just come for soup and pie, it's more than worth it. The desserts here are among the best offerings in the entire state. There are a regular assortment of decadent, fresh-made pies (the banana cream being a personal favorite), as well as a rotating stock of seasonal options. You can't go wrong with any of the options here.

Very cute restraint with charming paintings of Dodo birds in the walls. The food was okay, not fabulous and not bad...somewhere in between. People that are not foodies but do enjoy a good meal they didn't have to cook will love this place. Be sure to save room for the pie! I did not, sadly, but the others at my table really enjoyed it! I'd recommend the cheese and fruit starter.

This may be the best meal I've ever had - and it was keto friendly! I will spend the rest of my life trying to figure out how to make quiche that tasty and custard-like. The service was fine and the atmosphere was great other than some yelling in the kitchen and an overall noisy acoustic. If I lived here I would make this one of my go-to restaurants when I have the money to splurge.

The Dodo, a long time SLC staple. I remember taking dates here in Highschool and College, and coming late ish just for desserts. The locations were different back then but much is the same. My wife and I both had pastas mine was the Blackened Cajun chicken, really good with excellent flavor. But similar to others I've had for less. 5/5 Side Caesar salad. 4/5 My wife had the Chicken Gorgonzola pasta special, with pine nuts and sun dried tomatoes. It was even better than the Cajun pasta. 5/5 Waitress was very friendly, taking pride in her job and telling us they take their service serious here. So why four stars instead of five. The prices are very high. $20 for sandwiches and pasta dishes. It was $65 for both of us with no appetizers and one soda.

Why do I love this place so much?!! Probably because everything about this place is perfection!! I come here 5-6 times a year and I'm NEVER disappointed. We always have great service and amazing food. Without fail, I get the Smoked Turkey with Swiss. Every. Single. Time. Why mess up this good thing I have going for myself? The barbecue dipping sauce is incredible and the house side salad is also top notch. I hear there are many other good things on the menu but I just can't bring myself to part from my beloved sandwich. I do however switch up my desserts. I go back-and-forth between the banana cream cheese pie and the peanut butter cream cheese pie. The toll house pie is just ok for me, as well as the coffee cake. But you can't go wrong with those first two I mentioned. But I guess everyone has their own tastes. Please go to this restaurant and enjoy every bit of it!!!
