Eight Settlers Restaurant & Distillery

I had the salmon and it was good. It wasn’t anything amazing, but it was good. They seemed busier than expected, so we did end up waiting a while for ordering. I also ordered a soda when the food came and never got it. It felt like our server got pretty slammed with tables, so no shade to him.

The distillery is stellar. Consistently great. The food is surprisingly bad, especially compared to the quality of drinks and the atmosphere. The building itself and views are amongst the best in Utah, but I can’t recommend the restaurant. Either the food prices need to come down or the quality needs to go way up. My choice would be to overhaul the food menu and kitchen management, especially given how absolutely amazing the location and libations are. The service was also great. Really lovely people. Rooting for you!

The food was good. We had seven people, and we ordered slowly. We were not in a rush, and we were not rushed to eat and run. I had brought friends from out of town. The service was friendly and professional.

First time there, never heard of this place before. Food was good, the whiskey was top notch. Will come back

Father’s Day brunch was very nice. Relaxing environment in the 21+ section and I had a great Irish Whiskey drink

We ate here for brunch and the food was great but maybe a little overpriced. We sat in the 21+ area so the noise wasn’t too bad. The drinks were delicious!

First time eating at this restaurant. Very pleasant experience. Beautiful dining area for brunch. Great service. 

Lovely as always. Salmon was cooked to perfection and the venison carpaccio was delicious!

This restaurant was right next to our hotel, so we stopped in after we got back from a late soccer game. There was a wedding on the first floor, but we were able to get right into the second floor dining room. The service was great. Went with the servers' suggestions of the braised pork shanks and warm cookie dessert. My son loved his salmon. This was a good, convenient location, and I would eat here again.

We stumbled upon this distillery/ restaurant unexpectedly, and it exceeded our expectations. Cavan provided excellent service, the brunch was delicious, we were lucky to sit by the windows with wonderful views, the establishment had a cool, sophisticated old-fashioned atmosphere. I tried their Gin and whiskey produced on the premises. The Devil’s Gate Bourbon is pretty good, the 8 Year Rye Reserve was very well done and my favorite of their whiskey. I wouldn't hesitate to suggest this place.

Either the second best or best restaurant I've ever been to. Absolutely delicious.

They've got an actual real cocktail menu, and the Wasatch Orchard is one of the best drinks I've ever had, so much so that I asked the bartender for the specs. Tart, savory, sweet, and botanical in sequential order. As an amatuer mixologist myself, it broke the 4-ingredient cocktail rule and still managed to stay balanced.

Calamari was was flaky and succulent, came with a tasty southwesty-ranch and jalapenos.

Burger was juicy and crunchy and tasty. The truffle fries were excellent. The bacon in particular was unusually good.

The Garlic Brandy Cream Pasta was amazing, and I am so glad I got 2 entres. Shaved parm, fresh pepper, I did have to say no peas and no spinach but oh man, I loved it.

Nitpicks (and I do mean nitpicks)
-Despite being awesome, the multi-meat burged still just tasted like beef
-They should serve their fries in a basket separately so the burger juice and sauce doesn't make them soggy
-Calamari plate was too small for the whole table

But seriously - hats off, well done. People consider me pretty difficult to please and I was blown away.

Wonderful restaurant! We loved being upstairs with the open windows on a warm night in May. We had a large party and everyone loved the appetizers, their meal and desserts. Our waiter was great! Interacted with everyone and helped with suggestions and recommendations. Highly recommend.

The brussel sprouts did not come with agrodulce as advertised. Instead, they were drenched in balsamic reduction that of which was extremely overwhelming. The sprouts were swimming in it. Thankfully, I told the waitress and she quickly corrected and confirmed that the chef did not prepare it to spec. I love bone marrow and got an order of Eight Settlers version. They were the smallest/most weak marrow tasting bones I've had to date. Sad... I really feel they could do better for their price point. The food is mid, the service is fantastic.

Followed the suggestion of other reviewers and reserved the bar seating. Good choice. Quieter than the dining room proper, even on Mothers Day. Great food and service. Waiter even refused to bring my credit card back to me till I'd returned from the restroom, so the honored mother didn't have to see/process it (she was willing). That's class/good service. Drinks were creative and well crafted. We will be back.

We came for Mother's Day brunch and had an amazing time! Our service was great. Our food was fantastic, and came out fast. Will definitely be coming back for dinner and cocktails!
