Utah County, easily the least creative named county in Utah. Don’t let that fool you though. Where it lacks in creativity and pizzazz with its name, Utah County makes up tenfold with the variety and selection of mouth-watering, local restaurants around just about every corner. With so many choices we put together a list of the top local restaurants that offer takeout or delivery so you can enjoy them in the comfort of your own home.
This is especially good to know since we are all currently having to social distance which has taken a toll on a lot of businesses especially local restaurants. However, social distancing doesn’t apply to our taste buds and now more than ever we have an excuse to grab takeout and support local restaurants!
Here are the top 10 local Utah County restaurants with takeout or delivery:

Station 22 Cafe
Website:
Location:
22 W Center St Provo, UT 84601 – Phone (801) 607-1803
About:
Established in 2011, Station 22 brings fresh, reinvented versions of family recipes, classic dishes and some new flavors you never imagined.
The chicken and waffles or Jack Kerouac burger (Egg bun, lettuce, brie cheese, bacon, whiskey sauce, mayo) are worth the usual wait to get a table (but since you can get it to go you don’t even have to wait) and with 50+ drinks on their soda menu you will have you choice as to what delicious drink you want to compliment your meal with (I would recommend the classic 22 Brew – their house root beer).
Take out Directions:
Station 22 Cafe is offering FREE curbside pickup. Call and place your order and then simply pull up to the curb and we will bring your food out to you.
Yelp Review:
“I cannot say enough good about Station 22. I can’t get enough of their fried chicken, and the soda selection is SO FUN. My go to is chicken and waffles, it comes with crispy fried sage on top and I’m drooling just thinking about it. Also the fried chicken sandwich is to die for. Fried Funeral Potatoes are delicious and worth the calories. If you live up North it’s worth a drive to come eat their authentic southern food. Service has always been great too.” – Mallory M.

“Tasty nachos! I recommend ordering two of the most deluxe versions. Next I wanna go back to try chimichangas. I feel like you get a good amount of food for the price.

“Do yourself a favor and indulge in the jalapeño bacon ranch burger or chicken sandwich. You’ll thank yourself for it. They’re perfectly matched with the beer battered fries.

“This is one of the best dessert shops in The Valley. The pazookie is AMAZING! But definitely plan on sharing because it’s huge. The white macadâmia nut cookie is awesome!

Yelp Review:
“The yellow curry is delicious! If you order it as-is, it has just a little bit of spice, which was perfect for how I was feeling that day. It was served piping hot, which I always appreciate. My husband ordered the Massaman curry and he loved it. My tablemates shared their food around so I also got to try the pad thai, drunken noodles, and thai spicy beef, all of which were delicious.” – Kati P.
