This was my second time at Mina's and it was wonderful. Great wine selection, cocktails (check out the bubble drink), and food and desserts were superb. The swordfish pasta is unique and amazing and best lasagna ever. Kailey was such a great, knowledgeable, and personable waitress. Best place ever!

Still/always one of the best 'hidden gem' restaurants in the Salt Lake Valley. In addition to their outstanding regular menu, we love their wine and food pairing events--Diego and team always put on a wonderful feast with epic food and wine, couldn't ask for a better evening.

Absolutely loved our experience. Very charming space (we sat in the garage area). My only complaint was the very hard chairs. The service was impeccable and the food was superior...very fresh and well-prepared. The cheese plate was outstanding and the olive oil cake was the best dessert I have ever had. We'll be back soon!
