    Really cool vibe, and strong cocktails. The servers are very knowledgeable about the menu.

    French Toast
    Shannon K.

    We have been here a handful of times for brunch. Walking into the "antique shop" was fun, and you can purchase the antiques! We had more fun checking out the antiques than we should have at a speakeasy. We always have great service, fun hosts, and exceptional food! The chicken and waffles was good, the chicken was definitely the best part. The Cobb salad was very fresh, the blue cheese crumbles weren't overwhelming the perfect addition to the salad. The thick bacon in the salad was delicious, The tomatoes weren't ripe, and they lacked flavor. The chicken breast on the salad was grilled to perfection, it was so good! The french toast was so delicious , you have to get the French toast!

    Prohibition is always a great stop! Their drinks are amazing and the vibe is immaculate. We love their Tommy gun tacos but got the fish tacos this time and they were also delicious! Highly recommend either of them. This is a great spot for date night!

    This place is quite the experience. You walk in through a small shop that has a hidden entrance to the speakeasy once you check in with the "clerk". The lighting is dim in the best way, very cute ambiance with colorful stained glass lamps and Edison bulbs hanging from the ceiling. Our waitress, Natalia, was very friendly and helpful. She helped me pick a drink that was SO GOOD. We ordered: - "on the hook" appetizer - $19 - "fedora fin" ahi salad - $19 - "the patsy burger" - $28 - "pep in your step" pasta - $34 - "the gatsby" cocktail - $16 - "whiskey & wonder" - $19 - "saloon macaroon" - $17 Everything tasted delicious. The portions were pretty small, especially for the pasta. However, this feels pretty expected because you're not coming here for the portion sizes. You're coming for the quality of the food, the ambiance, and the speakeasy experience. Live music some nights of the week (Wed - Sat? Don't quote me) I will definitely be back!

    Came back here for my birthday. Man, this place does not disappoint. The food tastes immaculate, the servers are so professional and checked in on us quite frequently, and the ambiance is so welcoming and comfortable. We were there late enough to get some live music too, which is a great time. Definitely one of the top 3 best food spots in SLC in my opinion. Will def be coming back.

    Cool atmosphere in the bar area

    Cool atmosphere, and a great selection of cocktails. My husband and I stopped by for drinks after a movie, and were happily surprised to find such an interesting spot in the area. Service was attentive. My only complaint was that after asking our waiter for a recommendation between two cocktails, he suggested another one without warning me about the price. At $35, it was quite more pricey than the average $18 on the menu, including the ones I had originally picked. That's unfortunate because based on that experience, I don't think I'd go back.

    Shrimp & Grits
    Erin W.

    I have been coming to Prohibition since it first opened and was surprised to realize that I actually have not reviewed them yet! I have visited for their nighttime burlesque shows and for dinner, and while the experience is still great, I would return again and again for their brunch! It has remained one of my favorite brunch spots for a couple years now, so when I visited recently and realized that they had changed their brunch menu, my interest was piqued! In fact, I was almost nervous because I am a creature of habit when it comes to menu favorites and their Huevos Rancheros (which I LOVEDDDD) was removed from the menu. I anxiously ordered something new off the menu and to my excitement, it turned out to be one of the absolute BEST brunch items I have ever had the chance to eat. I ordered the Shrimp & Grits and my husband ordered the Crab Benedict. Shrimp & Grits is all-around one of my favorite dishes, so was incredibly excited to try this new menu item. I am not exaggerating by saying this Shrimp & Grits is now my #1 favorite Shrimp & Grits I have had the pleasure of enjoying. The shrimp were seared well, and the flavor of the grits was unlike any other grits I've had before. The pineapple chutney was so unexpected and I was unsure if it made sense to me for the dish to have it at first - I was very wrong! It created a perfect balance with the savory flavors from the grits and shrimp. My husband loved the lump crab cake on his benedict and said the flavor on the hollandaise was delicious, mentioning that the cilantro was a nice touch! The benedict also came with the Kale & Quinoa hashbrowns which he was apprehensive about at first, but ended up enjoying thoroughly. I tried a bit of it and it had a nice crunch to it. Additionally, I was still pregnant at the time, so I did not indulge in a cocktail, but they satisfied my request for a combination of passionfruit and orange juice - it was perfectly refreshing! My husband enjoyed his meal with a Bloody Mary on the side, and he absolutely loves it when his Bloody Mary is practically a meal on its own given that it has so many toppings. We ended the meal with an order of Benny's Beignets which is accompanied by a blueberry lavender jam. I will say that I have had many beignets before and texturally, these were a little crunchy/tough for my liking. With that being said, the blueberry lavender jam was exceptionally delicious and unique! Great job making such successful changes to the menu! This could have easily been a moment of disappointment for a highly favored menu, but instead, the new menu really hit it out of the park. I cannot wait to come back and enjoy my new favorite dish!

    Chicken and waffle, shrimp and grits
    Jane C.

    Cool vibes and decor! We came here for brunch but wished we could go at night. The chicken and waffles was good. Waffle had a unique flavor. We still think about it and crave it. Shrimp and grits was standard.

    Walked in and you get transported to the roaring 20's loved the outfits of the staff. I got eggs Benedict and it was delicious Love the hash browns with quinoa and kale! Yes please Pineapple mimosa to wash it down. Just tasted like bubbly pineapple juice Husbands Irish coffee was a little strong for me or maybe not big fan of whiskey haha Husband ordered the monte cristo sandwich and it was good outter layer was little tough. Definitely would like to come back for dinner Tuesday Wednesday and Thursday they have jazz/blue music Friday/sat burlesque Sunday black and white movies

    Eggs Benedict

    I love speak easy's! This one is a gem in Murray, UT next to fashion place mall. Take a trip back to the 1920's and enjoy vintage decor and vibes. Even the waiters/waitresses are dappered-up in old-style clothing. Makes for a cool experience. Tuesdays = Live Jazz Wednesdays = Live Blues Thursdays = either/or Fridays = Burlesque night Saturdays = Burlesque Sunday = Black/White movies We came for Sunday brunch. It was pretty good. I got an Irish Coffee which ide def order again. I also ordered a Monte Cristo - brioche buns with fried batter, ham and cheese. It took me back to the blue-bayou at Disneyland. Our waitress was really friendly. She checked on us multiple times. We'll be back, but next time for dinner.

    Dip the bill
    Rustam I.

    This place is for having drinks and chill out only. The servants were not great, they didn't pay attention to our reserved table, they seemed to not caring at all. Ordered the Dip the bill meal (duck breast), they brought super fat skin duck and not breast, I could not cut it! I asked the crew to replace it and they replaced it with tacos which were better in quality. Overall it was 3 star experience and not for everyone

    Cool vibe
    Dan S.

    One of our favorite date nights. Prohibition and the Eccles Theatre. Opening weekend of Wicked! So good. They don't have the lollipop Gams, buffalo wings anymore, sad, they were really good. So we started with soup. French Onion very good. 4/5 An emulsion soup special that was really good. 5/5 I had the Hammer and Sows, grass fed Elk Loin, so tender and good, Gorgonzola, mushrooms, Alfredo with Fresh Fettuccine. 5/5 My wife had an appetizer special with dates and a special spread with cheese. Wish I'd kept the official description of it, but it was really good. See pics. Service is always top notch.

    Add some magic to your evening with a visit to Prohibition. This iconic speakeasy may be a ways outside the city bar scene, but its charm and whimsy makes up for it. Upon entry, you'll discover antique relics and jewelry for purchase as you're greeted by the host. I don't want to spoil the surprise for you, but you'll then be guided through a secret door to the bar area, which is lively and bursting with energy! There's live music and entertainment, such as burlesque and jam bands. For dinner, I ordered a dirty martini and it was perfect, which is a rarity around these parts, and the Alfred "O" ravioli. Everything the table ordered was brought out in a timely manner and we devoured each dish in under 10 minutes.

    Ask the Community - Prohibition

    Do they allow cigar smoking?

    Sadly no. I wish but it is Utah.

    No kids right?

    Yes, they are licensed in Utah as a bar not a restaurant, so absolutely nobody under the age of 21 is allowed.

    When is Blues Night?

    Please visit Prohibitionutah com for events listing. Thank you

    Is there a show during the week or only weekends?

    Thursday night, Burly-Oke, a marriage of Burlesque and Karaoke. You sing and oe of our performers may dance to your tune. A Burly-Oke DJ to entertain you as well as a performer. DJ is with you all night, performer has three different performance… 

    Are you pet friendly...i.e. may I bring my dog in?

    This is not a good place to take a pet, like all non-patio dining areas.

    There's a dress code isn't there? The main Prohibition Web Site doesn't mention anything about it. What is the dress code?

    Nope, I've gone in jeans and a sweatshirt. You are welcome to dress up if you want but usually it's just the staff.

    We are a bunch of girls coming part of a bachelorette party next weekend. Is there a way to reserve a table for that? What is the cover charge? There will be about 8 of us.

    Reservations are accepted up until 6:00 PM on Friday and Saturday. Admission charge is $5 per person. Please call 801-281-4852 for reservation. Thank you.

    Can a group of 6 get in tonight for dinner at 7 ish?

    Likely that you can, but no gaurantees.

    Last time I visited you had regular redbull but no sugar free option for my drink of choice Sugar free Redbull and Titos. Is there a chance you can begin to stock this, or can I bring my own next time?

    Hey Troy, you are correct, we do not have sugar free red bull. I will see what we can do about this, if there is demand for it. Will ask bartenders and will get back to you in a couple of days. Thank you

    Are you able to accommodate a party of 20 on Saturday nights?

    We can usually accommodate on our main floor. We also have a downstairs bar that can be reserved or if not reserved and main floor is full we can usually open this for seating of up to 20.… 

    Are the vegan Choco bites really vegan? The menu says its vegetarian next to it but the name says vegan? Just wanting to clarify, as I can't have dairy. Thanks in advance!

    Yes they are vegan. Mistake on menu. Thanks for pointing that out. Will get it fixed.

    Are kids allowed for Sunday brunch?

    Sadly no We are technically a bar

    Wondering what the appropriate entry word would be to get into the bar? I truly liked the "antique" bit, but I wasn't exactly sure what to say. I'd like to be fully prepared next time once I bring friends back!

    Next time you come in, ask for a membership. Each week you will be texted a password, say that word to the host & your cocktail server and you’ll get some pretty awesome perks… 

    Your hours aren't correct on this site. Want are the new hours?

    Yes

    Do they accept Amex?

    Yes

    Do you have to be 21 to get in?

    Yes we are a bar :)

    Do you have to make a reservation?

    No, but it is recommended for large parties and weekends. Reservations can be made at ProhibitionUtah.com or call 801-281-4852

    Do you have hookah?

    No

    Do I have to buy food with my drinks?

    Nope We are a bar

    Great little dive bar vibes. Considering the location, I was kind of expecting a seedy, unwelcoming…read moreplace with a bunch of old racist dudes as the regular clientele, with the classic rude bartender that ignores you. But I wanted a drink and was willing to take the risk, and I'm glad I did, because it was nothing like I imagined. Bartender was friendly and helpful. There was a decent amount of people watching the soccer game on tv, we were all cheering for Colombia, but then they lost, so most of them cleared out. Vibe kinda died after that. But nonetheless I had a great time, and I was pleasantly surprised by the friendly atmosphere. Plus 6$ mules and .50 cent pool is hard to beat. I guess they serve food but I don't know how good it is. Only downside is that's there's just one toilet, luckily I didn't have to wait to use it while I was there.

Drinks are cheap and so are their Hennessy shots at $7 each! Plenty of seating available, but everyone seems to congregate at the bar. I soon found that the bartender is such a hoot and so friendly! There's a couple of pool tables. The bathrooms are a little "shocking." I was looking for the women's restroom and when the lights automatically turned on, I saw lots of 70s models posing nude. So this is what regular bodies look like before the surgery era! The men's restroom was more classy with people smoking cigars.
