Stephen was a fantastic bartender. I ordered a cocktail off the menu to start which was delicious. But where he really got to shine was when I felt indecisive about what sort of absinthe drink I wanted; he asked what sort of spirit I'd like it with and when I said I enjoyed whiskey with notes of vanilla and caramel, …
Great low key spot for an amazing cocktail. Relatively quiet setting with dim lighting. Expansive selection of all different spirits. Friendly and knowledgeable bartenders. This is consistently the first stop of Friday night date night.
This bar is cute and the drinks are so good! Live music is delicious and the drinks have good prices. Hot toddy was soooo good. Love this spot.
Great cocktails and the staff is excellent. I did a 'surprise me' and the bartender made an outstanding cocktail based on my taste profile. Fun spot
I hate to share this place since it’s a local gem, but there was a group of racist individuals in there tonight (Super Bowl) disrupting the vibe. The bar (as usual) was a pleasant place, locals gathered, and one guy was disrupting all of it, in a maniacal way, then he and his friends turned completely racist and the police …
Came early on a Saturday. Very chill vibe. Their spirit selection is on point!! My test for any bar is if they can make a decent Manhattan and they killed it. Double rye High West Whiskey. Music could be a bit more varied but not bad (think hip hop chill). Deff worth a stop
Such a good vibe, nice and dark with old movies on the tvs and music just loud enough. Bartenders are crazy good at handling volume and making the best cocktails in salt lake—without exorbitant pricing. Knowledgeable and capable staff, treat them right and they’ll treat you right.
Stopped in for a quick drink, ended up ordering fries too. Music was on point — a little old school hip-hop. They had Espolon tequila and I could order a drink and not need a seat at the bar… need I say more?
My husband and I absolutely love coming here! Everyone is friendly, from the staff to fellow customers. And no one is better cocktails and cocktails than the bartenders here. An oasis from the insanity that is our country atm. Just go there, you'll see.
I live in Tucson, and I was looking for a bar with a great vibe, while I was here in SLC. Bar-X did not disappoint! Julie is an amazing bartender, cocktail officianado, and you can tell she loves this place! I told her it reminds me of a place in Tucson called The Shelter, because both bars play old movies …
