Block Restaurant

Breakfast · Provo · 3330 N University Ave

Block Restaurant is a chef-driven American room at the far north end of Provo, and this site's downtown coverage corrects its placement explicitly, because a lot of people file it mentally under Center Street and it is nowhere near.

Where it is

At 3330 North University Avenue, in the Riverside area -- the north end of the avenue, roughly three miles from the grid origin downtown.

Provo addresses are grid references rather than house numbers in the usual sense: they count outward from the origin at Center Street and University Avenue, one hundred to a block. Our guide to how Utah addresses actually work explains why the same number means a different place in the next city over.

What we know about it

Our Center Street dining guide carries a note whose whole purpose is to say Block is not on Center Street. That correction exists because the restaurant sits in the same conversational tier as Communal and The Slate, both of which are downtown, and proximity gets assumed from company rather than from an address.

What the coverage credits is range across two different meals. Our date-night writing treats it as a special-occasion room, seasonal and locally sourced, and groups it with Communal and The Slate in Provo and La Jolla Groves in Orem. Our brunch guide names it separately for an elevated weekend service, in the tier above The Brunch House and Guru's Cafe rather than competing with them.

Everything we have written about it

This is every page on Provo.com that names Block Restaurant, most substantial first. The directory exists to route you into the writing rather than to replace it.

The durable facts, and the ones we refuse to carry

We do not publish opening hours, prices, phone numbers or ratings for any venue in this directory. Those are the facts that go stale, and a directory carrying them is wrong within a season while still looking authoritative. For hours, ask the restaurant.
