New restaurant in Radisson Hotel


The street-level restaurant at the Radisson Hotel, at 215 W. South Temple, has tried for years to be a successful high-end steakhouse first with Shula's and then with High Rock Steakhouse. But in Salt Lake City, that niche was already being filled by Spencer's, Christopher's and Fleming's.

Now the owners have wisely changed course. The hotel recently remodeled the space and opened Copper Canyon Grillhouse and Tavern.

Executive Chef, Sebastian Lizarzaburu has created a menu of contemporary American favorites and plans to use local organic seasonal vegetables, fresh baked artisan breads and regional livestock whenever possible.

Because it's a hotel restaurant Copper Canyon is open 7 days a week for breakfast, lunch and dinner. But the restaurant hopes to attract more than just travelers. It is offering a 3-course "Hungry Man" lunch for the downtown workers. The staff promises to have the meal delivered to the table within 10 minutes.

To see what the space looks like, take this video tour on the website.
