If you're going to name your restaurant after one singular dish, logic dictates that you'd better have a mighty fine recipe in your back pocket. Moochie's Meatballs and More has precisely that. The meatball sub (6-inch $6.49, 12-inch $10.49) begins with perfect meatballs, seriously tender and flavorful. With the next layers of house marinara and provolone, things could start to unravel, but Moochie's solid, hearty bread is a final touch to an exemplary sandwich.

Moochie's Meatballs and More • 7725 S. State St., Midvale; 801- 562-1500 or moochiesmeatballs.com. Open Monday-Saturday 10:30 a.m.-8.30 p.m.; closed Sunday.
