You must experience Layla Grill.“

“Sapo the chef is INCREDIBLY talented! By far THE best Korean style bbq ribs I've ever had in my entire life and my children are part Korean so I KNOW good Korean food. If you haven't been yet, you haven't lived. It's a bucket list experience for your taste buds! Best birthday dinner ever!“

“RHIANNON IS THE BEST SERVER ASK FOR HER. The best experience and the best food thank you!!!!“

“Excellent atmosphere, jazz combo on a Thursday evening, nice. We ordered a lot of starters, each fantastic. Cocktails quite unusual and fun to try. Dinner that followed was very good. We had a birthday celebration, it was a wonderful evening, and the service, along with the rest, made our evening special. Thank you much.
P.S. I want to hire that jazz combo, but I can’t find the singer’s name she put in my Contacts. How do I get ahold of her??“

“Delicious drinks and great service! I came here after a mini rave outside got overrun with teenagers, so anyone over 21 left for the nearby bars. So it was pretty busy, but the girls bartending were so nice and happy to serve us. (They are also all gorgeous!)
I had the orange creamsicle and it is my new favorite drink.
I had no idea this place existed and am glad we stumbled upon it. We will definitely be back.“

“Love the speakeasy atmosphere. Food and cocktails were delicious. Will definitely be back.“

“Had the best time at Citizens for Valentine’s Day with my girls! The cocktails were top-notch, and the service was just as impressive. The cozy-chic aesthetic and great music created the perfect vibe for the night. No wait at the door, even on a Friday, which was a pleasant surprise. Casey was absolutely fantastic. Expertly crafting our drinks while keeping the energy fun with great banter. Whether you're planning a date night or a girls' night out, this spot is a must-visit. Highly recommend!“

“Andrea, to me, is truly the face of Adelaide. We’ve been coming for a little over a year, and from day one she has always recognized me, my husband, and our children, greeting us with her warm smile. No matter how busy the restaurant gets, she remains kind, attentive, and welcoming. She goes the extra mile by remembering what we’ve enjoyed in the past and offering thoughtful suggestions for new things to try.

Andrea is a big part of what makes Adelaide special, and she’s someone we always look forward to seeing when we dine here.“

“Good time. Highly recommend 👌.“

“If sleek, sexy and dark candlelit spaces are your jam, you have a new home!!

We’ve never been but had friends suggesting we go. 4 drinks later we were sold: superb experience. The food bites are simple snacks, the he drinks are all out fancy, decadent, sweet, full bodied, strong, and fun.

The staff was nice and dressed to the 9’s. There’s a patio we didn’t enjoy, but I see it busy all the time.“

“What an amazing experience, food/drinks + music 👌🏽“

“Didn’t try any food while I was here wish I did but was busy going other places in the moment. Great place to start your night out or even end the night out if you’re looking for somewhere to play some pool or even just grab the last beer“

“My first visit was today with a group of retired friends. I had the mac n cheese. Very favorful, a little crisp on the top, almost like what my mom used to make.“

“Visited when in town for a wedding and Franklin Ave became our go-to stop. Their food is delicious. On our last night they were busy and we could only be seated downstairs. We sat at the bar and had appetizers while we watched three incredible bartenders show their talents with all of the mixers, tinctures,etc. Very highly recommend!“

“I loved this place so much and I rlly loved all the workers there. The workers are all so kind and helpful. I love d all the food I tried. This was truly such an awesome and exiting experience. You have to try this place out!“

“Great service and great great food and drinks. Loved it.“

“第一次来 Sapa Sushi Bar，整体体验非常满意！🥢 店内装修融合了现代感和亚洲风情，很适合和朋友聚会，也适合一个人静静享受晚餐。💬 服务员也非常友善，会耐心介绍菜品，还不时来加水、确认口味是否满意，感觉被重视。💵 价格略高，但整体物有所值，毕竟品质和体验都在线。“

“This was a heck of fun place. Vibrant and happening, with a down-to-earth and friendly staff and management. A great place to hang out, play pool, or just relax. And the specials and prices are out of this world. Great place for an affordable night out with friends.“

“One of my favorite bars. The staff are cool and friendly. Chill vibe, pool tables, partially-covered patio with fire and games, good beer (their Murderbrew is a REALLY good copper ale), and good bar food. Especially their burgers. Highly recommend their Reuben Egg Rolls. We have to get them every time! They have some vegetarian options, like cauliflower wings (not sure if they're vegan, call to make sure).
We're regulars for a reason!“

“Fantastic theming and atmosphere, the drinks are super creative and quite good. Everyone is very kind and the bathrooms are also so cool. I left my jacket by accident and the staff was super awesome and held it aside from me. Amazing customer service and an awesome place all around!“

“A fantastic, welcoming, and cozy wine bar! Lovely seasonal décor, welcoming atmosphere, and great selection of interesting wines. Highly recommend for a date night, or just having a place to hang out, enjoy a glass, and read a book.

Much needed addition to the wine bar scene in SLC.“

“I've eaten here several times now. Haven't been disappointed yet. Great fresh fish and an awesome atmosphere. Had a box delivered to my office last week as well. Can't beat that!“

“I just happened to be walking by and am from out of town. I was drawn in, and so very happy to have followed the hunch. Service was excellent. The chips and salsa satisfied me while I enjoyed my Tamarindo Margarita which was a treat. I had a ceviche of “tres amigos” - octopus, shrimp, and fish. So fabulous!! I recommend this restaurant heartily.“

“My server Naleen T was phenomenal!!! Thank you for the great food and hospitality!“

“This is my second time doing the palate parlor tasting menu! And it was AMAZING!
-First off the rooftop vibe with the sun going down was breathtaking.
-Marissa was my server and she was incredible very knowledgeable and friendly and welcoming.
The food! One word DIVINE!!
The food was so good I forgot to take pictures cause I was so in the moment of enjoying it!
The slow roasted pork shoulder was so tender you pulled it off with your fork.
With the atmosphere/food/service I give it a 1000/10“

“100% RECOMMEND! This is our favorite place to eat in PSL! The food is unique and fresh, the restaurant and bathrooms are clean, and the customer service is the best! Once you’ve been there a couple of times they remember you and pretty much know what your “usual” is. Dennis, the owner, has been there a few times when we were there and he always comes over to say “thank you for coming in.” He even covered our bill one time when he found out we are Veterans. LOVE, LOVE, LOVE ZEST KITCHEN!“

“This was my first time at Libertango - recommended by a friend. We had a wonderful experience, from everyone being so kind, helping us celebrate our anniversary, but also delicious food - the provoleta was to die for, the passion fruit caipirinha. Their kindness was exceptional! Highly recommend if you want to eat good food, and feel special.“

“Went to lunch at Taqueria 27 and ordered the Duo Platter and it was AMAZING! Brunch here is also the best. Highly recommend eating here!“

“This is a Real Bar! They have an excellent selection of house cocktails, but can execute any classic cocktail with ease. Domestics and imported beers are at the ready, as is Underberg. I am chuffed to have sidled up to this bar while passing through town.“

“It's laid back and relaxed. It's not it has wonderful large booths for parties up to 6. It's not too loud so you can enjoy the conversation with your friends. Great food. Everyone is very friendly and helpful if you have questions. I would recommend it!“

“I attended a Day Party/Brunch yesterday (March 30th) and it was a very nice event, atmosphere, small rooftop area and hookah, nice tables! The DJs played a variety of genres, people socialized and danced. Awesome servers and bartenders. My server, Jacob Meadows, provided excellent service and he was very friendly and personable. I like how there is a food hall directly next door, connected to The Drift Lounge. I highly recommend Taste of Louisiana!“

“My partner and I stumbled on this place on our way to another bar we were just going to grab a quick drink but ended up enjoying ourselves before we knew it we had three drinks and a desert. Great place for a date or to catch up with friends comfortable yet stylish I could hear well enough to actually have a conversation. Every drink we had was delicious! Highly recommend.“

“I love this place! Not enough dimly lit reseraunts around here.

Perfect atmosphere, great food, and Harold was the best server I have met in quite awhile. He was very accommodating and made me feel very comfortable like I was being served by a friend.🙂“

“The food was delicious… I will be back possibly tomorrow for lunch. Highly recommend. Great atmosphere. Our waiter Ehsan was great as well.“

“Was pretty good, loved the verde sauce and atmospheric grit. Was at the Hollywood Heritage Museum book sale today and saw the original vintage photos of the place. Very cool!“

“I’ve been here a time or two. Zoey is consistently service forward, friendly and fun, creates a rapport with her guests, all while being attentive and executing great service to all of her guests. She’s a gem and a reason to return. Also, pizza’s dope.“

“Reading the negative reviews tells me everything I need to know about the reviewers. One of the coolest people I know, told me to go here. All I can say after reading the negative reviews: leave your attitude at the door, bring some cash (there’s an ATM in back), show your ID when you first enter, have some self effacing humor (you’re in a local watering hole, buy the locals a round (Happy 77th Birthday Grizzly) and enjoy your time here by not being an entitled jerk. Shout out to the Bartender & people in back, enjoying role-playing games. Oh yeah, it gets busy at night, have some patience.“

“What an amazing little bar. Just a stones throw from Flankers, my favorite bar & grill in America.

Kelley is amazing and so is Ethan and Hannah is wonderful too. I’m sure there are other people and that they are wonderful too.

Only complaint is that there was a frozen hamburger outside.

(Updated)
I went back and talked to the manager, it was a hot n’ spicy mcckicken, not a hamburger. Anyway, they were out of banana pudding when I went. Weird. I don’t think they even have it. Super weird.“

“Have been coming here since they opened in November. Every single staff member is exceptional. Good hospitality is hard to find but something all these individuals exude. Halley and Braden always greet us warmly, make great recommendations, and most importantly some of the best cocktails we’ve ever had. Absolutely stunning bar.“

“We love the Rio Grande we go there a lot before Gymnastics and other things at the U.“

“A nice cocktail bar / lounge in Salt Lake City in the Monaco hotel. Service is good & attentive and the ambiance. My steak frites were cooked perfectly but founded the food to be a bit too salty. If they slightly reduced the amount of salt on the food it will be better. Overall will come again just for cocktails.“

“Great food! Attentive service. Great location!“

“First time at Pizza Volta, came in with a group of nine last night. Fabulous experience! Cocktails were so good, pizza was even better! Tried several different varieties of both. Our server Brandon made the experience all the more fun. We will be back!“

“Fun atmosphere, light crowd, delicious drinks and food! The surf and turf was divine ❤️“

“Buen lugar para comer mi favorita la sopa marinera“

“I'm a resident of Chicago currently on a work assignment in Phoenix. Your restaurant was highly recommended by a colleague so I decided go for dinner. Wow! I had a fantastic dining experience! The meal, particularly the NY Steak and shrimp tacos were delicious! The cocktails were savory also. Servers were professional and courteous. The venue was delightful! I shall return! Thank you!“
