This health-focused restaurant chain launched in Utah. Now, it’s expanding.

Aubergine Kitchen is opening new locations at the Salt Lake airport and in Utah County.

A health-conscious fast-casual restaurant chain that started in Utah is opening two new locations in the state, a news release said.

Aubergine Kitchen, launched in 2014, is opening restaurants in Spanish Fork and the Salt Lake City International Airport this year, according to the release. New locations are also slated to open in Las Vegas and Meridian, Idaho. No opening dates were announced.

The menu features bowls, melts, entrees, salads, hot and cold drinks, “nice” cream, acai bowls and superfood smoothies, made with whole grains, vegetables, protein, fruits and nuts, without added sugar or seed oils.

Aubergine Kitchen has two existing locations in Orem — on University Parkway and within Utah Valley University — as well as in Salt Lake City’s Sugar House neighborhood, Park City, Farmington, Draper, Riverton, Lehi, American Fork, St. George and Mesa, Arizona.

“We’re always striving to make healthy eating accessible, delicious, and enjoyable,” said Mirian Zanatta, co-founder and head chef in the release. “Our team is excited to bring our philosophy of wholesome dining to even more communities in 2025.”
