This off-the-beaten-path restaurant has all the gritty charm of a classic roadhouse with none of the Patrick Swayze-instigated violence. Instead, you'll find friendly staff, a full bar and some of the tastiest fried victuals in Salt Lake City, like the sumptuous fried chicken and the deep-fried funeral potatoes, a devilish twist on some nostalgic Mormon cuisine. The Garage has two bars, two stages, a cornhole setup in the back and a regular lineup of killer local and national blues and rock bands.

A hip, young hangout, Beer Bar is a relative newcomer on the downtown scene, but it has already become a Salt Lake City favorite (everyone loves the baby of the family). There are lots of places to sit, and lots of young people to meet and mingle with. Beer Bar in downtown Salt Lake City takes great pride in the way the beer is served—in the appropriate glass, and at the appropriate temperature. And that secret door to the west? Heads right into Bar-X.

The well-lit liquor showcase is the first thing that will catch your attention at one of Salt Lake City's oldest bars. Bar-X has an old-fashioned speakeasy feel to its atmosphere (perhaps a holdover from its “Men Only” days), but with a few modern twists. Bar-X has a reputation for making some of the best cocktails in downtown Salt Lake City, and it's always packed with people craving a professionally made drink. Try a Sazerac, Old Fashioned, or a trendy Fernet.
