Handle was voted Best Restaurant in Park City in 2017 thanks to chef Briar Handly's inventive American dishes. Small plates make it easy to try everything, and you'll want to with dishes like buffalo cauliflower, smoked trout sausage, and the chef's famous fried chicken. The creative and knowledgeable bar staff will surprise you with inspired handcrafted cocktails. Save room for inventive, delectable desserts like the Handle Bar, made with local maple ice cream dipped in milk chocolate and topped with a brown butter crumble.

Wood-oven pizzas, sizzling steaks, and spit-roasted chicken are among the hearty staples on the menu at this restaurant.

This Main Street staple has delighted guests since the mid-1990s with a modern Italian menu in an airy café with the best patio in town.

Plenty of purple-hue touches—velvet upholstered booths, hand-painted scrims, and Western murals—brighten the 1898 brick building that was once the local telegraph office. "Fancy cowboy" cuisine includes such dishes as grilled veal meat loaf with poblano peppers and pine nuts or the lime-grilled black tiger shrimp. In summer, eat on the back deck under the charming bistro lights.
