PARK CITY, Utah — Mediterranean food enthusiasts have a new spot to look forward to in Park City. Spitz, dreamed up by Park City native Bryce Rademan, is opening a new location in the former Slapfish building next to Whole Foods in Kimball Junction. The Mediterranean restaurant has gained national acclaim for its street food-style wraps, gyros, and salads.

Named after the vertical method of broiling proteins, Spitz boasts an eclectic menu featuring Mediterranean and Greek dishes, American classics, and a variety of drinks, including craft beer, wine, and sangria. The restaurant also caters to diverse dietary preferences with vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free options.

The street-art-inspired decor, dog-friendly patio, kid’s menu, and games for both kids and adults will gear up to make Spitz the perfect family-friendly destination for dining.

Rademan shared the journey of bringing the restaurant to his home state. “I started it 20 years ago in LA right out of college. Most people don’t realize it’s not from Utah originally. I brought it to Utah by franchising it to friends that I grew up with from Park City… that’s how we ended up here about 11 years ago.”

Now, Rademan gets to bring his dream to life in his home town of Park City, and it will be owned and operated by long time Spitz franchisee, Brett Chamberlain.

Chamberlain runs three other Spitz restaurants in the Salt Lake Valley including Cottonwood, Draper, and Lehi. However, the Park City spot has been years in the making, because, for Rademan, the conditions had to be perfect. 

“We’ve been searching for, honestly, 10 years for the right spot up here. We really felt when Brett found this space, it just made sense on every level,” said Rademan. “I wanted it to be the perfect spot, and feel like I had the right operator in here to do it. Because it’s homecoming for me.”

Spitz restaurant is targeting a grand opening in late August of this year. Check the Spitz website for more up-to-date information on its opening.
