Lured by the decor and century old charm, my group of friends came here for dinner & drinks. We had a couple leave immediately as it smelled “off”. We had dinner in the basement library and could smell dust, mildew, water damage, rotting minerals somewhere. We looked at the books behind us and they were half full of black mold. The staff was great, our server attentive, but food was horrible. I waited 2 hours just to get my appetizer- pork belly, and I was starving by then. I had a Malbec glass of wine, the bison meatloaf and the dark chocolate rum dessert. Friends had Parmesan fries that I tried. Overall, for almost $100, my meal tasted like cardboard or mush. Pretty much all frozen. Huge disappointment as again, the decor & uniqueness is cool. Took 4 hours to be served, and we won’t be back again. Took a couple photos but did not take more due to trying to figure out what was going on.

What a nice hidden gem! Visiting from out of town and saw a sign that read “Ask about our hidden bar” best question I’ve asked! Atmosphere is amazing, the food was decent, and the cocktails were PERFECT.

Five Star experience all the way!

Service was so good that we came back with twice as many people the second night we were on town.

This is our favorite speakeasy in Utah…

To be quite honest, the service we received was impeccable. Sierra was professional, kind and very attentive.

Mike was also very nice and we all felt well cared for. Everyone agreed that the welcoming personality of Amber, Mike and Sierra made the evening one we will remember for years to come.

The Library was a very cool spot for us and the food, atmosphere and top-notch customer service was nothing short of amazing.

Thanks again,
Rich and all your fans

Disappointed from food to service. This place used to be amazing, but I am not sure I’ll be coming back. The server was nice, but she didn’t not seem properly trained for service, including any of the wine options available. We ordered a bottle of wine, and she proceeded to pour our glasses without offering the usual taste test to assure it is ok. I ordered the steak medium rare which came well done, and it tasted less than ok. Sides are now an additional fee, which used to not be the case. Service came to ask if everything was good near the end of our meal. We gave her feedback of the steak then. The grand finale was receiving the bill and paying by card only to receive an additional charge for using a card despite not being informed. Overall, the food is subpar and has gone down since the change from last year. Service needs to be properly trained on the menu and drinks. Otherwise it leaves you paying for a $50 steak with a crappy experience. We used to come every year. It’s really unfortunate.

Very fun and unique restaurant. Other reviews said the service was subpar which made me a little nervous. I thought our service was excellent as was the food and the drinks. The atmosphere is one of a kind and will be going back

Love this place, been coming here for many years. I like some of the recent changes, like opening up the upper floor and adding a basement bathroom. But I hope the new ownership doesn’t change too many things, or change the vibe too much. For example, having the bathroom downstairs is great, and the monkey wallpaper is hilarious… but… it’s kind of clear that the bathroom addition was done on the cheap when you look at it for a minute. Low quality plastic products, fan cover loose in the wall setting, temperature indicators on the sink faucet are backwards, etc. The level of quality doesn’t match the rest of the space. It’s not necessarily bad, but it doesn’t match. If too many changes are made like this, the place will lose the upscale feeling it currently enjoys. I’m entering only three stars for atmosphere for this reason.

What used to be my upscale favorite restaurant has been remodeled into something I don’t even notice. The atmosphere changed from intimate and warm to where now I feel like I’m sharing my meal with the entire restaurant. The table was small which is not ideal if they want us to actually order more food. The person next to me is so close I can hear him better than the person I came with. The renovation is a big loss.

Update: the appetizers were mid. The people next to us had waited TWO HOURS for their food. Our water had not been refilled in an hour. I don’t know what happened here but they’re losing my business and I no longer recommend this place

A speakeasy in SLC? Yes, please! We came across this gem in a search for top restaurants and bars in downtown and were not at all disappointed. Don’t be fooled when you walk up! This unassuming little “Bodega” is so much more than what meets the eye on the surface. The gent that greeted us at the front must have sensed our confusion and asked if we were here for the Bodega or “the rest.” He proceeded to take us down a staircase and through an unmarked door, which opened to a beautiful, lodge-style bar. It reminded us of something out of Hemingway. You may be thinking places like this surely don’t have great food, but you’re wrong. We were absolutely blown away by the pork shoulder. It was flavorful and tender and the chicken bun was amazing. But the drinks. Oh, the cocktails! The Oaxacan Old Fashioned was superior, but the absinthe fountain was so unique, delicious, and…shall I say, beautiful? Really. It was more of an experience than I would expect a cocktail to be. The service was superior as well. Worth noting we visited on a random Wednesday evening and it still had quite a bit of open seating. I can’t imagine this place isn’t packed on the weekend because it’s THAT good.

ITS SO FREAKING COOL!! I truly appreciated the decor in the Rest being a Coloradan! We walked into Bodega and asked for the Rest. We had to wait about 15 min then we’re escorted downstairs. It was really cool and this place was a great stop. Definitely worth checking out!
The cozy, warm ambiance in the Rest was very refreshing from crowded loud bars.

We got the whiskey flight, and the bartender also made me an “allergy friendly” drink. I told our waitress the kind of things I liked and the bartender made a surprise, super cool and loved that they paid attention! The food was good as well. Not a huge meal but its good for snacking on something classy with a drink.
