Please note this restaurant is now closed.
The following are photographs of Black Widow’s menu from the summer of 2011. Strangely their website seemed to go offline, a few weeks after my first few visits. I thought it was perhaps a brief snafu, but as its still offline, this seems like a great time to post these photos. After all, this is a great restaurant.
In my humble opinion, skip the entrees and stick to the sandwich selections which are almost universally fantastic, not to mention wallet friendly too. Probably my favorite item off the whole menu is the sublime Cuban sandwich. A paltry $8 is all it takes to secure this greasy messy pressed and grilled sandwich, that comprises roasted ham, swiss, smoked pork, house made pickles and spicy aioli. Your doctor might not thank you for it, but your stomach will.

Hi, I’m Stuart, nice to meet you! I’m the founder, writer and wrangler at Gastronomic SLC – Utah’s biggest and oldest online food magazine; I’m also a former restaurant critic of more than five years, working for the Salt Lake Tribune. I’ve worked extensively with multiple local publications from Visit Salt Lake to Salt Lake Magazine, as well as helping to consult on national TV shows.
I’m a multiple-award-winning journalist and have covered the Utah dining scene for the better part of seventeen years. I’m largely fueled by a critical obsession with rice, alliteration, and the use of big words I don’t understand.
I started SLC Menu as somewhere to house all the hard-to-find menus I pick up during my food writing travels. Through the archives you can find menus from the last fifteen years of the Salt Lake City dining scene.
