10. R&R Barbecue

If you’re looking for something filling and hearty, R&R Barbecue in Lehi is the place to be. This Utah classic has been around for nearly 10 years and has opened multiple locations throughout the state. In Utah County, we’re partial to this one. R&R’s menu celebrates smoked meat and classic southern sides, but the pulled pork BBQ nachos are our tried-and-true favorite—especially when paired with their spicy housemade barbecue sauce. Bonus: it’s a dish that’s big enough to share!

9. Cubby’s

Focusing on elevated basics, Cubby’s is a fast-casual Utah classic that’s easy to stand behind. The food here is fresh and consistently delicious. Cubby’s is known for their burgers and salads, and has a breakfast menu that is worth waking up for. When it comes to the menu, there’s just no getting away from the Houdini Burger or tri-tip steak salad—with tender steak, tart and chewy dried cherries, bright cilantro, and fresh tomatoes, this salad is a timeless go-to for quick lunches.

8. Aubergine

One of our favorite Lehi restaurants for a healthy bite, Aubergine accommodates nearly any dietary need while hitting all the marks for a flavor-packed meal. Their bowls are satisfying and delicious, filled to the brim with veggies and protein. The Mediterranean Bowl is one of the best choices on the menu. Stacked with tabouli, carrot salad, and a combo of fresh, roasted, and pickled veggies, it’s balanced in both flavor and nutrition.

7. Sabaidee

While Sabaidee doesn’t look like much from the outside, one bite of their curry makes it clear that this is one of the very best Lehi restaurants. When deciding what to eat, remember you are here for the curry! Order the massaman for something rich and hearty with warm spices and an earthy flavor. If you’re in the mood for a lighter curry, order the panang or green curry for something more vegetal with bright notes. Either way, you’ll leave with happy tastebuds!

6. Strap Tank Brewery

Strap Tank Brewery is a Utah County classic! Originally started in Springville, Strap Tank opened their second location in Lehi just a few years back. Settled on Traverse Mountain amid ever-growing tech and software companies, it’s one of the best Lehi restaurants for a sit-down business lunch or accommodating a large group. Their menu includes a wide variety of classic sports bar foods from salads to burgers, pizza and wings. We recommend the southwest burger or chicken enchiladas, which are our favorite things on the menu.

5. Spitz

A reliable winner, Spitz naturally made its way into our guide as one of the best Lehi restaurants. With a huge variety of menu items from wraps to loaded fries, there’s something for every mood and every palate. The doner basket and street cart fries are must-tries, but you can count on nearly every dish to come through with loads of flavor and fresh ingredients. We recommend going mixed-meat and mixed-fries on everything, and getting a side of their fried pita strips and hummus for the table.

4. Cafe Trang Bistro

Head straight to Cafe Trang Bistro in Lehi when you’re craving something quick yet comforting. The fast-casual restaurant is often bustling, with a vibe that complements a big bowl of pho for a cozy lunch during mid-day slumps. When looking at their menu, stick to the pho. The steak and brisket are tender and delicious, never overcooked, and come as the perfect fatty pairing to the fresh lime, basil, bean sprout, and scallion accouterments.

3. Zulu Piri-Piri Chicken

Easily one of the best restaurants in Lehi, Zulu Piri-Piri Chicken is consistently one of our go-to spots for a fresh, flavorful meal. Their chicken is juicy, and every side hits the spot. Just trust us on this one. Order their chicken on the bone plate or crispy chicken wrap for something a little heavier, or opt for the chicken bowl if you want an extra helping of veggies. Either way, the African rice is essential, with warm spices, sweet, juicy golden raisins, and charred chewy corn, it’s dimensional and delicious.

2. Tsunami Restaurant & Sushi Bar

With a few locations around both Salt Lake and Utah County, locals know Tsunami for their uniquely delicious sushi rolls. It’s why Tsunami is on this guide, and it’s what makes them one of the best Lehi restaurants. Each roll uses bright flavors that highlight the star of the show—good quality fish. If you’re a garlic lover (who isn’t), their uli-style edamame is a must. When it comes to sushi, favorites include the Something Tropical, spicy tuna, and Executive Suite. Get enough to share, and have soy sauce on standby. It’s fun to dip, but definitely not necessary. These rolls are outstanding as is!

1. Baan Thai

Baan Thai is, by all means, unassuming—until you walk inside. With plants hanging from the walls and cozy low lighting, this new sit-down Thai restaurant is as charming as it is delicious. There’s no chance you’re going to have a meal here you don’t like. Our top choices are the chicken larb and roast duck curry. The larb is packed with umami and has a really pleasant layer of heat, and the roast duck curry is equally light and earthy with al dente veggies. Baan Thai is a clear choice when looking for the best restaurants in Lehi, and is perfect for everything from business lunches to a nice evening out.
