In the News - Road Island Diner


Road Island Diner
Photo by Keith Walker
Keith Walker wrote letting us know about the award his restaurant just received. A little background first though. Keith completely restored a 1939 Jerry O'Mahony, Inc. designed and built diner. His restaurant competed against many others in Utah.

While we weren't there to hear it, the official announcement from Salt Lake Magazine would have sounded something like this. The 11th annual Salt Lake Magazine Dining Award for "Best Design" goes to . . . the Road Island Diner.

We congratulate Keith and his team at the diner for a job well done. The entire article listing all the recipients may be read here.
