Sunday’s Best may be promising “brunch all day everyday,” but in downtown St. George the only thing on the menu right now is a construction timeout.

The planned restaurant’s build-out has been paused, leaving a polished “coming soon” façade and a large banner out front but no active crews on site. Photographs taken earlier this week show the storefront wrapped in branding and signage, with little visible progress behind the papered-over windows.

As reported by The Salt Lake Tribune, Sunday’s Best’s owner has described the pause as temporary and said work "is set to begin again in the next 60 days." The Tribune’s story also featured a photo by Mark Eddington showing the bold banner out front declaring, “Brunch all day everyday.”

For now, the St. George location sits in limbo, its “coming soon” promise hanging over a quiet construction site. Neighbors and shoppers downtown will likely be keeping an eye on the space for the return of contractors and any hint of an updated timeline.

Chain's recent history in Utah

Sunday’s Best opened a downtown Salt Lake City restaurant last year and quickly drew interest from local media. The growing brand also ended up under a state review over sales-tax paperwork earlier this year, according to a February report in The Salt Lake Tribune. In that coverage, regulators were said to have considered suspending the Salt Lake City location’s liquor license while the company worked through its tax issues.

What's next for the St. George site

If the owner’s target holds, construction at the downtown St. George spot would ramp back up within about 60 days, putting work on track to resume later this summer. We’ll keep an eye on city filings and local reporting for any official opening date and further word from the company on how the project is progressing.
