What a fun hidden gem!! I’m somebody who loves to find new food places to try out. You can tell a lot of love and care goes into this family owned restaurant. The food is authentic southern food. I was able to try a few things i had never had before, and also some familiar foods like fried chicken. The walnut salad was fantastic!! I highly suggest the corn on the side, and some fried green tomatoes. Lots of Gluten free options!! Very filling large portions, even on the kids menu.

This place was great! The staff was super attentive and made sure all of our needs were met. On top of that, the portions sizes were huge, so you definitely got your money’s worth. Food was delicious! (especially the fries and the cornbread) Would definitely recommend this place!

I didn’t expect to find good soul food in Draper but here we are! Let’s keep this restaurant around! I got the Mac and cheese and grits and both were very good, particularly the Mac. The cornbread was soft, spongey, and sweet. I only gave it four stars because while I enjoyed my blackened pork chops, they didn’t blow me away. That said, my friend was raving about his fried chicken. Finally, the helpings were large – we were both stuffed and had leftovers. The service was amazing, the owner and chef stopped by and chatted with us for a bit, super nice guy. You can tell he puts a lot of passion, love, and skill into his food. I will definitely be coming back!

As a girl born and raised in North Carolina, I know good Southern food — and let me tell you, this place NAILED it. From the moment I walked in, I felt like I was back home. The fried chicken was perfectly crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside, the collard greens had just the right kick, and don’t even get me started on the mac and cheese… creamy, cheesy, and made just right.
But what really made the experience special was the owner. He came around to check on every single table. You can tell he puts his heart into everything — the food, the atmosphere, the whole place. It felt less like eating out and more like being welcomed into someone’s home. If you’re craving true Southern comfort food made with love, this is where you need to be. I’ll definitely be back! Maybe there will be corn puddin to try next time too.

I cannot recommend Sauce Boss enough! The shrimp and grits were to die for, as well as all the other dishes I ordered. The staff and owners were very sweet and attentive. Try to go earlier if you don’t want to wait too long for a table, it does fill up with people since the food is so good!

Came in on a Friday around 5 and waited about ten minutes for a table because they had “just seated a bunch of tables “ even though I could see 3 empty tables. Ordered the fried chicken with mashed potatoes and collard greens. Chicken was crunchy and thin. Greens were good, but could have used a little more zing for my taste. Mashed potatoes were average and they didn’t give enough gravy. Cornbread was interesting. Didn’t taste bad but the texture was more cake like. After reading all the great reviews I guess my expectations were too high. I’d say give it a shot yourselves though!

Loved everything about this place – the menu, the service and the foooood! 10/10. Our server was incredibly kind & welcoming. We got the pasta with shrimp & bacon bits which was delicious, the broccoli kale salad which was good but a little too sweet, the candied yams and the collard greens along with the hibiscus drink & mixed berry lemonade. All excellent. The cornbread was the star of the show, best I’ve ever had in Utah. All the portion sizes were huge & we had plenty of leftovers. Highly highly highly recommend if you’re looking for authentic soul food in Salt Lake City!

The pork shank and shrimp and cheesy grits were INCREDIBLE! Fantastic place to spend Valentines Day! Didn’t have to wait long for a table even though they don’t do reservations. There was a line at the door before they even opened so it had to be good!

Wow! Absolutely delicious! I had the chicken fried chicken and my wife had the pork chops. Both were incredible! Really moist with great flavor! The mashed potatoes and mac n cheese where also good. The corn bread was really, really good. The only thing we were meh on was the collared greens. They tasted ok, but we’re just not collared green people. The service was also good even though the place was packed.

I thoroughly enjoyed Sauce Boss! I went with friends and we wanted to try all the sides. We ordered the fried green tomatoes and both the chicken fried chicken and the fired chicken. We got cornbread, the Mac and cheese (amazing!), yams, seasoned corn, mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables (sauteed tomatoes). It was all so good. I really like the chicken fried chicken and mashed potatoes. I look forward to visiting again.
