Blue Plate Diner, Salt Lake City » Kids can tuck into corn cakes for breakfast or three kinds of fries or classic milkshakes.

Bonsai Japanese Steak House and Sushi, Salt Lake City » Kids get a kick out of the knife-wielding chefs, as well as food that’s flipped and set aflame before their eyes.

Daly’s Pub and Rec, Park City » Located in the Montage, this restaurant offers fine pub fare and a wide variety of games, such as bowling, darts, shuffleboard, arcade games, Wii, pool tables, and flat-screen TVs showing sporting events.

Left Fork Grill, Park City » A classic diner, but not a greasy-spoon. Dishes such as wiener schnitzel, open-faced turkey sandwiches and corned beef hash are made with exceptional execution. There also are least six kinds of pies daily.

Melty Way, Midvale » This fast-casual sandwich shop offers a new spin on grilled cheese.

Pat’s Barbecue, Salt Lake City » Barbecue, in all its finger-licking glory, is the perfect food for kids, and Pat’s is one of the best places to get smokey ribs, brisket and chicken.

Red Iguana, Salt Lake City » The lively atmosphere and consistently good Mexican food are reason to bring the kids. There are no chicken fingers here; instead try a quesadilla, burrito, taco or flauta, a rolled and fried meat-filled tortilla.

Rusted Sun PIzzeria, Salt Lake City » This welcoming pizzeria, with its great vibe and delicious pizza, is great for kids.

The Pagoda, Salt Lake City » This updated restaurant serves lunch combos in bento boxes. Try the Noda-San — vegetable and shrimp tempura, chicken or beef teriyaki, four-piece spicy tuna roll and rice.
