“Found this place for last minute business dinner. Unique cocktails, amazing small plates. Brussels and Truffle fries didn’t disappoint. Entrees were fresh and well composed. My only knock was our server that wasn’t that personable and didn’t provide any recommendations.“

“SOOO GOOD! Definitely a five star experience.“

“Great menu, diligent staff, and great crowd!“

“So good! Service was great, atmosphere was good. We went on a Friday and they had a live DJ, he played great music but his little too loud. Menu was great! We had the bone marrow tacos, bread basket, sea bass and the whiskey ribs. Everything was amazing! The ribs were just okay. Fish wash so good! We will definitely go back and try different things off the menu! It was a busy night Siri upfront door kept opening and closing, which made it a little chilly inside.“

“Came here on a quiet Sunday night to grab a quick appetizer and drink before dinner, and was totally surprised by the excellent cocktail selection and getting to chat with CaCasey behind the bar.
Absolutely recommend the charcuterie and any of their Old Fashioned variations (the White Sails was particularly tasty!). Couldn't recommend this place more!“

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

“No live music but very cool they play records! I was going to change the record but they were playing smooth funky jazz like nightmare on wax, didn’t see the need to change it 😃. Learned new artist, can wait to record hunt!“

“Good time. Highly recommend 👌.“

“This little cocktail lounge is a fantastic setting for a little more intimate gathering, complete with couches, lower tables, as well as taller tables. Their cocktails are delicious; especially the "Cocaine lady" (sweet and creamy). The bartender is always very attentive and the atmosphere is dark. I would totally recommend this little gem to anyone looking for this type of experience.

Side note: I parked in the underground paid parking at the Gallivan Center and walked about a block to get here, as parking is limited in front of the lounge.

Parking: Plenty of paid parking at the Gallivan Center. (About $9.00 for a couple of hours)“

We can’t wait to return and relive those joyful moments when we’re back in Salt Lake City!“

“We had yet another delicious meal and fantastic experience at Franklin Ave last night. The design and decor are absolutely stunning, and the staff from the door person to the host to the servers and managers were all so friendly and knowledgeable. We started off with the chips and whipped feta, hamachi crudo, snap peas, and ribs. All were delicious in their own rite. For the main course, I had the pasta special which included handmade pappardelle noodles, duck, oyster mushrooms, and a spicy red sauce. Yum! The miso cod, bolognese, and fish sandwich were also ordered and everyone in our group was over the moon with their selections. For dessert we shared the maple pecan respado - a must try dessert! Cocktails were amazing per usual.“

“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.“

“My server,Ryan, was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable about the menu, making excellent recommendations that perfectly suited my taste. The restaurant clearly understands the urgency of an order to be made quickly. My large order came to my table within 3 minutes of ordering.
Thank you so much for making my layover in Salt Lake City a wonderful one.“

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

“I recently visited La Cevicheria in Salt Lake City, and it was a fantastic experience from start to finish! If you're a fan of fresh, delicious ceviche, this is the place to go. The flavors were perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of tanginess and spice. Every bite tasted incredibly fresh, and the portion sizes were generous.

The service was also top-notch. Our waiter, Jordan, was awesome—friendly, knowledgeable, and attentive without being overbearing. He made sure we were well taken care of and even gave us great recommendations on the menu. His enthusiasm added to the overall vibe of the place.

I highly recommend La Cevicheria for anyone in the mood for authentic, fresh seafood with excellent service. Definitely coming back!“

“I recently dined at Adelaide, and while the food was just okay, the service and atmosphere made it a memorable experience. Our server, Andrea, was exceptional—kind, attentive, and genuinely caring. She made us feel welcome and ensured we had everything we needed throughout our meal. The atmosphere was lovely, with a warm and inviting vibe that set a relaxing tone for the evening.

We ordered the white fish and the shrimp bisque, which were fine but didn’t quite hit the spot for us. However, Andrea’s outstanding service and the ambiance left such a positive impression that I’d happily return to try something else on the menu. Thanks to Andrea and the welcoming environment, this restaurant still has a lot of appeal!“

“Excelente lugar lo mejor en la. Ciudad“

“Great food, but turn the loud music down!! very annoying.“

“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.“

“Love this beautiful place“

“This place is special. They put their heart into it. And you can feel it in the service, food & drink, vibe, and overall experience. I love this place and want to start going there even more. It gets better every time we go.“

“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!“

“A modern & cozy sushi spot that has some of the best sushi in Utah! Everything we got was incredible. The hand rolls were amazing, but the Ora King salmon sashimi really did it for us! You can’t go wrong with anything on the menu, and the staff is knowledgeable and ready to answer any questions you may have. We had Corey & Junior, they were both amazing! We will definitely be back.“

“A funky little bar tucked away on Edison St. with a relaxed, cozy, intimate atmosphere. A great place to chill with some friends or someone special. You can order food from Laziz Kitchen (Modern Mediterranean). It's in the heart of a vibrant area between 200 S and 300 S that is expanding with bars, restaurants, cafes, etc.“

“Vegetarian options: Locally sourced and flavorful ground beef.

Dietary restrictions: Exquisite gluen free vegan caviar. Definitely ask Todd for the caviar. Smoke free, dog free!

Kid-friendliness: Lots of kids running around the place when we were there.

Wheelchair accessibility: Just hop the fence if the bouncer is not letting you in.“

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

“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!“

“Amazing atmosphere and theming, fabulous drinks, and they did a fabulous job accommodating my many food allergies. We'll definitely be back!

Dietary restrictions: They had very tasty gluten free buns for the burgers and a yummy vegan cheese (I have a dairy allergy) that was very tasty on the Smokehouse burger.“

“Great cocktail spot! We checked Water Witch out on a vacation to SLC. LOVED the Great British Baking Show themed cocktails on the menu that night. They had very well balanced and creative cocktails. Bar is very small and crowded (its a popular spot for a reason), so finding a non Saturday night to visit would be advised.“

“Layla is not just amazing food, they make you feel like you are dining at their home! You do not have this impressive experience anywhere else in Utah but at Layla Grill. The portions are generous and the prices are affordable. I can’t say enough about Layla Grill I wish I could eat there every day. They transform you to the Mediterranean with the atmosphere and food. You must experience Layla Grill.“

“Crowd can be a little rough but the drinks are cheap, the staff is awesome, and the atmosphere is convivial. Just keep your nose clean and you should have a great time!

Bar does not serve food, btw, so not sure why Google asked me to rate that. Beers tasted fine.“

“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!“

“Definitely our go to for brunch, especially when we have friends visiting from out of town. Such a fun and hip atmosphere. Their beignets are to die for.“

“Such a great spot. We came for lunch in a big group. The service was excellent. Our server was attentive, quick, knowledgeable...she could talk about every item on the menu in detail. The food was delicious. We ordered a whole bunch of food to try I loved the French toast and the garlic fries were amazing. I can't wait to come back sometime for the dinner menu. The environment is unbelievable. Highly recommend this place.“

“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!“

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

“The bar was beautiful and cozy. My boyfriend had the smoked old fashioned and it was excellent, very well done. I had the sazerac, which was okay, but really had no absinthe flavor which is a big miss for me. The bartender was really great and attentive. My complaint-not necessarily the bar, but the hotel outside the bar smelled so overpowering like a cheap plug in air freshener. It really made me not want to go in the bar.“

“We ordered Baklava for our family Christmas party, and it was the hit of the night! Everyone said it was the best Baklava they've had and kept going back for seconds and thirds. Thank you for adding to our special night.“

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

“great staff, super friendly, fantastic cocktail menu with lots of fresh ingredients. Enthusiastic crowd appreciates it all too !“

“Absolutely delicious cocktails both times we've been, and a decent wine selection to boot! The Scarlet Begonia is pictured, tequila ancho and coconut and a float of red wine, real nice kick. They rotate cocktails semi regularly so it's worth coming back, and it's a cool cozy chill little nook to hang out.“

“I just knocked over my partners drink, and these sweethearts brought us a new one. Great food, yummy drinks, great atmosphere.“
