When you name a restaurant after yourself, you know there’s a big personality and presence behind the endeavor. There’s no better example than the late Valter Nassi, namesake of Valter’s Osteria, who charmed guests for years in three different restaurants around downtown Salt Lake.
With Valter’s recent passing, the baton seems to have transferred to Matteo Sogne, owner and sommelier at Matteo Ristorante Italiano, who in just two short months, this cultured gentiluomo has taken over the helm of Salt Lake’s reigning handsome Italian restauranteur.
