Salt & Seek · Murray, Utah dining guide
Shawarma and pita. Curry and naan. Pizza and fresh pasta. Three different answers to what’s for dinner.
This Murray restaurant guide starts with the craving. Beirut Cafe, Bombay Palace and Frankie’s Pizza & Pasta give you three distinct directions for lunch or dinner, with enough menu variety to work through a group order. Compare the quick picks, then use the current menus before heading out.
Lebanese
Beirut Cafe
Beirut Cafe is the Murray stop for a meal built around shawarma, grilled skewers, pita and dips. Its menu gives you room to order one plate or put several appetizers in the middle. The restaurant says it serves halal meat, and it also lists falafel, hummus and a vegetable combo.
Where to start
- Chicken shawarma plate: The menu lists rice, hummus, pickles, pita and garlic sauce alongside the chicken.
- Mixed grill or veggie combo: Choose the grill for chicken, lamb and kafta skewers. The veggie combo brings together falafel, grape leaves, hummus, baba ghanouj and tabbouli.
Before you goDecide whether you want a full plate or a spread before ordering. Several dishes already include pita or hummus, so check the accompaniments before adding more. Confirm individual ingredients for dietary needs.
What to budget: The official menu lists the chicken shawarma plate at $16.99, mixed grill at $21.99 and veggie combo at $17.99. The shawarma includes rice, hummus, pickles, pita and garlic sauce, so compare the complete plate when weighing it against a sandwich or appetizer order.

Indian
Bombay Palace
When the craving is for curry and naan, Bombay Palace gives the Murray guide a different direction. Its published menu covers chicken and lamb curries, tandoori dishes, breads and vegetarian choices. You can build around a sauce-based main or choose something cooked in the tandoor.
Where to start
- Chicken tikka masala: The published description includes chicken, bell pepper, onion, tomato, cream and spices. Add naan if you want bread alongside it.
- Chicken tandoori or aloo mattar: Choose the first for a tandoor-cooked main. The second is a potato-and-pea dish from the vegetarian and vegan section.
Before you goTell the restaurant your preferred spice level. Vegetarian and vegan are different requests: paneer and cream appear in several dishes, so confirm the dish and bread you plan to order.
What to budget: Chicken tikka masala is listed at $15.95, chicken tandoori at $17.50 and aloo mattar at $13.95; garlic naan is $3.75. For the tandoori chicken, the kitchen describes boneless thighs marinated with yogurt, garlic, ginger and spices. That preparation gives you a useful alternative to a cream-based curry when choosing dinner.

Pizza + pasta
Frankie’s Pizza & Pasta
Frankie’s covers both the quick-slice lunch and the take-home dinner. Chef Chad Pritchard’s Murray shop lists thin-crust pizzas, fresh pasta and sauces made in house. A whole pie works when everybody agrees on toppings; pasta gives the person who does not want pizza a reason to come along.
Where to start
- A slice or whole pizza: Check the current slice selection for a quick lunch, or choose a whole pie from the pizza menu for the table.
- Radiatore carbonara or 30 Layer Lasagna: The carbonara pairs bacon and egg yolk with peas and roasted corn. The lasagna layers fresh pasta with Bolognese, Alfredo and mozzarella, according to the restaurant’s menu.
Before you goUse the live ordering menu for slice availability and current specials. If the lasagna is your reason for going, confirm it is available before making the drive.
The story behind the name: Chef Chad Pritchard named Frankie’s for his father. The restaurant describes hand-formed, stretched dough alongside house-made sauces and fresh pasta, which explains why this Murray stop belongs in both the pizza and pasta conversation.
What to budget: The official site lists a $5 slice, an $8 slice combo and a $13 two-slice combo. Confirm what is included in the combo when ordering. Whole pizzas are 18 inches, giving a group another way to build the meal.
Background and prices: Frankie’s official site.
