Nauvoo Cafe

This place is a fine eatery. The usual clientele are dressed formally and the building is quite fancy, but it is a casual dress establishment. Ordering was a bit slow, as the cashier was a bit slow she was training. However, the trainee was one of the nicest cashiers I’ve met. The rolls are delicious. As the Lion House is temporarily closed, this is one of the few places you can still buy the rolls. Very tasty. The tomato Basil soup was more like over salted marinara sauce. So think you could paint your walls with it, and so salty it would likely keep for a long time. Our salad was delicious, very fresh ingredients.

Prices are good and the location is obviously great if you're touring Temple Square. Limited hours, though. If you don't make it here while they're open, you can eat across the street in City Creek's food court. But eat here to save you some valuable tour time.

Description and menu was accurate, price was fair. Very clean. Pulled pork sandwich was flavorful, cole slaw was a nice addition and the bread was the perfect balance of soft and crispy. As a nauvoo-area native, I really enjoyed browsing the art.

Nauvoo Café is very nice and cozy, a perfect place at historic Temple Square. FOOD OVERALL SERVICE OVERALL PRICE OVERALL Sandwich quality+price Soup quality+price Turkey Pot Pie q+p Salad q+p Their Turkey Pot Pie is my all time favorite worth $8.99 +tax. The crust is flaky and buttery and the filling is exactly that—filling! I never come away hungry when I have their pot pie. Their soups are good, comes with a delicious roll, both for $4.84 includes tax, explaining how many times I’ve had their soups. My favorite soup is Loaded Potato, then their Cauliflower, then their Clam Chowder. Their sandwiches were delicious, but a few months ago when they reopened after the pandemic shutdown, their recipes changed. Their prices also went up. I don’t get a sandwich anymore unless they are out of my first two faves. The staff are very kind and helpful.

Disappointed today. The pot pie was sparse, hardly any vegetables or meat. Not as good as it used to be. The 1/2 sandwich was tiny! Not even close to the size they advertise on the picture on the menu. Quality has gone down in my honest opinion, unfortunately.

They have delicious gluten free sandwiches! The staff was knowledgeable about gluten free options and took care to avoid cross contamination. Not to mention, Joseph Smith Memorial building is an elegant place to eat lunch.

I go here about once a month. The Turkey club and the Jalapeno Pork are awesome sandwiches. I'd add a pic but I ate it too fast. They need to bring back the chipotleayo for the turkey sandwich. Update. The prices have gone up and the quality down a bit.

Everyone will have a bad experience at a restaurant so disregard those people who are complaining about "high prices" or a weird bad experience. This place is AMAZING. If you are going here for the first time get their Turkey Pot Pie. It is made fresh and guaranteed to be one of the best pot pies you will ever have. Everyone has always been friendly when I go, they keep the place clean. Nice and relaxing atmosphere for family or going solo. Don't forget... the turkey pot pie!

Well, I hate this place. That's not my actual review but that's just because this place had cinommon rolls that were some of the best I had ever had, and on my last trip, they didn't have them anymore and literally my whole day was ruined. That is how good they were. But beside that I tried their pulled pork sandwich and it was good but a bit expensive for me. I would probably recommend walking across the street and just eating something at City Creek instead of this place. It is really nice and it's tempting cause it's right there, but without that cinommon roll I hate this place. Just get maybe a cookie to get your parking validated.

The food was good, but paying $6 for a sandwich that was literally 4 bites is stupid. The servers didn't smile or thank me for coming. So I don't think I'll be going back much.
