This is a romantic place with an amazing view. (Majority of the view is of temple square, not all of Salt Lake City, but it’s beautiful). This restaurant has a lot of hype but I feel that it is a little overrated and really the only thing that I’m still sold on is the view. Our server had too many tables and although she was doing her best we were not served for the first 15 minutes we were there, and then we didn’t get our drinks or our food order taken for another 15. The food was good, not spectacular. I got an Italian cream soda and a BLT, and my date got a Coke with a classic burger. The food came out wrapped with a bow, very cute. Slightly overpriced for the quality, but still yummy. My final opinion on this restaurant is cute and romantic, but overpriced and overrated.

I’ve been here before but was not impressed with the food this time. We tried both the fried green tomatoes and though they were hot and crunchy not much as far as flavor so my husband requested fried pickles which also were just ok. My husband truly enjoyed the salmon. I got shrimp Alfredo macaroni and cheese. For me, the presentation of this dish needs some work. It was an extremely large serving of pasta! Serve less pasta so the shrimp stand out and serve a side of veggies and more sauce on the pasta. Menu seemed pretty limited. Peach lemonade was better than pink crush drink. We had no room for dessert after so much pasta. Leftovers for 2 more meals!! Lower the price and serve a smaller portion! It took a while for our food to arrive too, but we were not in a hurry so we just enjoyed the view. The hostess Haley was so attentive and helpful! Go for the view not as much for the food.

Nostalgic restaurant on Temple Square with stunning views. A fun, relaxing place to eat especially if you're looking at not leaving the downtown area. I'd rate the food and menu selection at three stars but the view is five, which is really why you would eat here. Staff seemed friendly. Reservations are helpful during peak times. Suitable for families.

Service was incredibly slow. We weren't seated for over twenty minutes past our reservation time. Our waitor brought us our drinks. He was no where to be seen after this. What looked like the manager came by and gave us our check. They even messed up the only thing I ordered which was a side salad no cheese. There are no options for vegans let alone vegetarians. Everything has meat in it. Will never be coming back.

Not bad. We’re definitely not anxious to go back. I got the House burger and my wife got the Club sandwich. Both looked good, but tasted mediocre. Service was soooo slow, and there was an odd smell coming from the kitchen (which we were sitting nearby), smelled like natural gas and ‘burnt’. Great view, but won’t be going back for a while.
