About this Neighborhood

South Cottonwood Acres is a workmanlike Salt Lake neighborhood with 17 restaurants and a distinctly international bent. The standouts travel far: Bombay Palace for Indian, Beirut Cafe for Lebanese and Gordo's Tacos and Beer for the taco-and-cerveza crowd, all backed by three coffee shops that average a solid 4.4. Four grocers, two parks and four fitness studios cover the daily rhythm. Foursquare tastes lean practical and neighborhoody, listing pizzerias, a Greek restaurant, convenience stores and a taco spot, framing an unpretentious place where the appeal is a good, varied meal close to home rather than a scene.
