    3 piece (hot) with fries.
    Travis B.

    Food is cooked fresh and the chicken was juicy and decent sized (I ordered the strips.) Hot means "HOT." It's not an exact science and my strips were covered in a spicy rub and sauce. I like hot things and this was borderline too much. A couple of things I found "meh" here. No iced tea. They have a lot of sugary soda and slushee drinks but the only unsweetened item is water. This place tip shames. You order at a counter and they are asking for tips. No, thank you.

    This location is great! Super quick service and cool atmosphere. Their sandwich is one of the best I've had! The chicken is super crispy and juicy. Their crinkle cut fries are seasoned so nice and they are so good dipped in the house sauce. I decided to try the chicken tortilla soup which I really enjoyed. I tried the cucumber watermelon lemonade and it was so refreshing and good. They have great shakes too!

    Original Hot Chicken Sandwich (level Spicy)
    Antonio L.

    This is my first time eating here... the inside is clean with a fresh modern look... they have levels of spiciness. I ordered the level spicy. It's was fire burning hot!!! For my taste. I took one bite and It was un edible. But a staff member Tracy offered me a mild sandwich, super customer service! (Original Hot Sandwich combo $12.99) which was great price for a juicy well balanced sweet-spicy-tart sandwich topped with homemade coleslaw perfection; comes with Cut fries and fry sauce...standard nothing special. First timer watch out for the toothpick holding the sandwich upright. lol I noticed staff working the floor, consistently asking guess if they need anything. Above beyond service. Thanks to Tracy for great experience. (Murray location)

    Houston hot chicken -Houstonian approved !!! Already been here a few times since they opened. Was super excited to have nearby. This last time I took my friend who was born and raised from Houston Texas- so you got his stamp of approval. The chicken is super juicy and hearty. I go with medium spice and the flavour is great . Their fries are crunchy and covered in a spice seasoning. I highly recommend their frozen strawberry hibiscus drink -absolutely perfect for a warmer day . Will be back soon enough for more bomb chiiiicken! Ayoo

    I don't even know where go begin this place! The staff there was beyond nice, the chicken & waffles were to die for! In fact, they were the best chicken and waffles I've ever had, and the sauce that comes with the fries is fire! I'll definitely be back!

    This place is amazing. I've been to this business twice and it has been incredible each time. The chicken is so tender and so flavorful. The guy who took our order was so helpful and kind. He went above and beyond for us. I think his name was Julio. Great guy. The maple waffle shake was delicious. Everything we ate was amazing and I can't wait to go back. Best chicken place in Utah.

    Me and my girlfriend came here for a date and I believe reading into it would be beneficial before dining. The service was great and the ambiance of the restaurant was also very fun and enjoyable. The food was exceptional. We got the "spicy" level of heat on the original and I was not expecting anything too crazy but when I tried it, I was very wrong. If you can't handle a lot of spice i recommend the mild or under. Even though it was very spicy, the food was amazing. Overall, the experience was great and I could see it as a fun challenge dining here.

    Lavender blueberry lemonade slushy
    Megan K.

    I have thought about this slushy periodically for awhile now... and want to try the other 2 flavors I didn't experience. Everyone here was very friendly and you can tell they emphasize a fun work environment and customer service. The food was good, but be prepared to wait- it is fresh, which is the whole point. It was a bit expensive for fast food, but I guess everything is lately. That being said, you probably could get one meal and split it between two people- I definitely eat my fair share, and feel like the portions were massive. If you like spicy food- get the hotter option than you think. I got medium and didn't feel like it was as spicy as I wanted. Overall it was great!

    They ain't lying to ya when they say the chicken was hot! Great food, clean space, fast service. Definitely will be back! I got the second spiciest one and was just sweating through my meal. PS. Be ready to sign a waiver if you want to do the spiciest level...I'm personally curious to know who can handle that.

    Chicken tender and waffle with fries
    Rachel H.

    My friend and I tried this place tonight and we were both disappointed. The menu was confusing and the worker tried to explain it but he was mumbling and made it difficult. I ordered chicken tenders with a waffle and fries. I didn't love the flavor of the chicken plus it was very greasy. The fries had an interesting spice on them. The waffle was actually ok. I felt it was all very over priced and it didn't taste good. I also didn't like that they charge if you want more than one of their tiny cups of dipping sauce. I definitely won't go back, especially since I left feeling sick and I was still hungry since I couldn't eat the food.

Crunchy on the outside but tender on the inside. You can tell this chopped steak isn't frozen. Add that to a great diner run by great people, and it's a great visit overall. I highly recommend it.

    The Food: Me and my 30 friends (We're a dinner group) set out each week to try new places, and…read moresocialize. So I think in talking to most of my friends I got a good view on the food, and presentation. I had a starter of Totchos, and the Beef Dipper for my entrée. Both were excellent, I shared my Totchos. These are tater tot nachos, they were excellent, normally I don't like cheese sauce on Nachos, but given the consistency and flavor of this sauce (house made, I'm guessing. Not canned) They were excellent. The Beef Dipper and Au Jus, also top notch! Generally in a French dip, there is a lot of fatty pieces, this was not that. Also at my table was the Chile Verde bowl, this one has a kick... but my friend having it really enjoyed it. The fish and chips was great, smelled fresh. Lets talk about the sides. Choice of Fries (appeared to be battered fries, always a favorite of mine.) Tots, or house made potato chips. I had the Potato Chips with mine, these were excellent, crisp and tender on the inside. The Athena (Lamb Burger) got rave reviews from one at the table The Service: Because we were in a large group they advised us they were going to be taking our orders as we came in so not to overwhelm the kitchen staff. Excellent communication throughout service given that we were a large group. I talked to one of the Owners, Laurie, I could tell she had a huge sense of pride in the place. Very friendly! The Restaurant: Great atmosphere, Fun artwork, best of all, VERY Clean, nothing sticky or no grease buildup on any surface. The glass ware on the wall behind the bar as all polished. In the bar area they stack their silver, tableware, condiments etc. in a cute little cozy box on the table, with the main dining area setup as a diner with the traditional paper napkin and silverware. For a diner motif to have shined silver and glassware is a nice touch! Summary: Eat here! The prices are reasonable, the food is excellent, when I looked at the menu online I was a little put off by no actual entrée's on the dinner menu, however the in house experience made up for that, it's a pub food vibe and they are doing it well!

Only reason I haven't been back is because eating out is a whole-family decision. What you get at Bumblebees is, in my opinion, a rare and odd fusion of foods that loosely fall into the realm of Bulgogi and Primanti Brothers (think fries plus bulgogi). The interior is appropriately dive-y. The service isn't surprising or especially fast (I recall it being respectable), but...that unique combination is only akin to having chili Mac (chili over spaghetti) from Hard times in DC. So...it's in that vein of highly flavored meat over a base starch that is cooked in such a way as to carry the flavor and not hamper it...every time I drive by, I wish my family liked spicy things more - it's totally worth it!!

I knew from the parking lot this place was a winner. Once inside, it had a welcoming atmosphere and people inside were all having a good time. This brewery features Lager Beers crafted using traditional Bavarian/European methods...thus I had to try one...two...maybe more. Luckily there was a ton of delicious looking food on the menu from the expected pizzas and wings to the old world treats like beef stroganoff, goulash and schnitzal. Everything is made from scratch and I couldn't help looking at all the neighboring tables to get an idea of what to try. Our waitress Ashley was really helpful and checked if the pesto was made with nuts as we have peanut and tree nut allergies in our family. Luckily there were no pine nuts or other substitutes and we could safely have it! We ended up getting quite a feast of plates and then topped it off with two desserts- the bread pudding and the German chocolate cake (couldn't come to a family agreement so had to get both!).

It had a fresh taste to it and even a little lemon-y, which didn't make the fried cutlet taste too rich. It came with mashed potatoes, gravy and veggies. The veggies were your basic steamed veggies, but the dish was overall good. Service was great-server was attentive and the manager came around as well to check on us. I think it would be fun to come here for Oktoberfest, since the inside has a good ambiance.

Our server was funny, personable, and attentive, especially when it came to drinks and refills. Things started going downhill when I received my entree, the Poor Man's Truffle. Unfortunately, the only way this dish lived up to its name was in how little the supposedly high-quality ingredients seemed to come through. The dish itself is fairly simple, which normally isn't a bad thing when the ingredients are meant to speak for themselves. With Belper Knolle, truffle oil, pistachio pesto, tomato, fennel, and arugula, I expected something flavorful and well balanced. Instead, the entire dish tasted incredibly mild. Belper Knolle is typically a bold, salty, peppery cheese, and I could visibly see the black pepper around the edges of the thin shavings, but the flavor barely registered. I also couldn't taste the truffle oil at all. There was visible oil pooling at the bottom of the plate, but no noticeable truffle flavor. I understand pistachio pesto tends to be more subtle than a traditional basil pesto, but altogether, this dish just fell completely flat for me. The presentation didn't help either. It looked more like something that had been scooped from a pan and dropped onto the plate than a thoughtfully plated entree. When a dish misses both on flavor and presentation, that's when it becomes a real disappointment for me. I will say the gnocchi itself was cooked well, which was one of the few positives. I also tried the burger, and it was significantly better than my pasta. However, the very small sprinkle of bacon was a little baffling considering it was an additional upcharge. Where the night really went downhill was at the end of the meal. I had been excited to try the beignets because that isn't a dessert I see on menus very often. Our entree plates were cleared, and then we waited about 20 minutes before our server returned and asked whether we were ready for the check. Dessert wasn't mentioned, and by that point our table was tired of waiting, so we decided to skip it and asked for our checks. Then our server disappeared for another 30 minutes. We eventually had to flag down a hostess who was seating another table and let her know that we were still waiting for the check. About five minutes later, our server finally returned and casually explained how "crazy" the night had gotten because of the show. I understand restaurants get busy, but the apology felt very dismissive after we had waited nearly an hour from finishing our entrees to finally receiving the check. It genuinely felt like our table had simply been forgotten. I also want to add that I tend to hold restaurants like this to a higher standard. I'm a big believer in "you get what you pay for." If I'm eating at a fast-food spot or somewhere inexpensive and casual, there's only so much room to complain. But when a restaurant has prices like this, highlights premium ingredients on the menu, and presents itself as a more elevated dining experience, I think that naturally opens the food and service up to more criticism. At that price point, I expect the quality, presentation, and overall experience to reflect what I'm paying for. My final takeaway is that maybe I ordered the wrong dish. Pesto is one of my favorite things, so I almost always want to give a pesto-based dish a try. Unfortunately, Prohibition's pesto gnocchi was not it for me. I also saw that they describe themselves as a scratch kitchen using high-quality, locally sourced ingredients, which I don't necessarily doubt. What confused me was how so many ingredients that should have distinct flavors somehow tasted like almost nothing. If your goal is interesting drinks and a fun show, this is probably still a place worth considering. Since we sat outside, I can't speak on the show part, but it seems to be a big hit. Food-wise, though, it missed the mark for me.

Ordering in person and getting to see the food and get help from the staff is amazing for first-timers.
