    As a seasoned Sundance Film Festival alum, the Prospector Square theater is always my favorite…read morevenue at the festival. Why? The seats are old movie seats so they are comfortable, they are arranged in tiers so you have a clear view of the screen, the screen is an adequate size, the projection and sound is clear, the ticket holder and waitlist lines are indoors and out of the cold, and there's a snack bar in the lobby. Even better, there's a free shuttle bus stop directly outside the door and the terrific Grub Steak restaurant across the street. Clean, large restrooms too. What's not to love?

    Wow! I'm really doing it! I'm Sundancing, gang. Full disclosure, I've been so happy recently I'm…read morebeginning to fear for my Yelp integrity (wink/wink). Everywhere I walk I've got FIVE STARS on the brain. Night two of "high culture" at the festival is in the books & I gotta say I feel about 10lbs smarter already. Prospector Square is far more intimate than Eccles Theatre so the lines aren't nearly as long & you don't have to stand in the cold. They also offer concessions while you wait and you can bring your goodies into the show! Eccles seats a little over 1300 people & is JAM PACKED for each showing. Prospector Square seats about 360 movie fans. My guess is if your film plays at Prospector Square during Sundance, it's like making the JV squad in high school. Coach Redford gives you a pat on the butt and says - "You're getting there little buddy. Now go home, practice dribbling with your left hand and come back when you're four inches taller." I didn't really know what to expect sitting down for this film. The Hollywood businessman who brought me to Sundance told me that "all of these films are kind of the same." I hate to say it but he was wrong! While this film was ALSO very slow, methodically paced & dramatic, the miserable situation was COMPLETELY different. This film dealt with a bastard fisherman who suffered from severe muscular dystrophy and lived with his poverty stricken mother who forbid him from spending time with his childhood love. AND it was in Spanish! Talk about ART! I think most of the foreign films play at this theater (JV). There's something about subtitles that just thrusts the misery of a situation right out into the audience. It's tricky watching subtitles, though. I'm not sure if I'm supposed to being paying attention to the faces the actors are making or the little text that's shooting across the screen. Sometimes I get confused & start making my own faces while reading the dialogue. No matter how I handle it I know I'm smarter for trying. They had a Q&A w cast and crew but I didn't stick around. I was exhausted from reading. Hola Amigo! You'll get 'em next year. So much culture. Prospector Square gets FIVE STARS!!

    Restaurant Review Only!!!…read more We walked in with HIGH hopes. We dine in the theater all the time and absolutely love the food (even with the limited menu), so we assumed the sit-down experience would be the same vibe, same flavor, same magic. It was... not. Let's start with the good: the ambiance is gorgeous. Classy, clean, comfy booths, great lighting. Our waitress was great -- attentive and kind. No complaints there. The gal who brought out the food, however, looked like she had rolled out of bed and maybe hadn't met a hair brush or dry shampoo in a week. Not exactly the impression you want in a kitchen staff delivering your food. We ordered: nachos, French dip, chicken quesadilla, and a kids chicken strip + fruit. The kids chicken? Chewy. Rubbery. My daughter took one bite and decided fruit was the safer investment. The nachos were decent but painfully bare. The cheese sauce covered maybe 60% of the chips, there was basically one scoop of pico trying to stretch across the whole platter, and the meat chunks were so large you had to engineer each bite. Also... rib meat on nachos? I'm open-minded, but I'm not fully convinced. The chicken quesadilla was solid and generously filled -- maybe almost too generously? It somehow crossed into "so loaded it forgot to be cheesy" territory. But it was fully eaten, so we'll give it that. Now. The French dip. The one I was most excited for. They tried to reinvent the wheel with short rib and Gruyère. Not traditional, but I was willing to trust the vision. The plate comes down -- no au jus. So the girl goes back to get it. While waiting, I snap a photo and notice a hair standing straight up out of my sandwich. Love that (at least I saw it before eating...?). I calmly sent it back. The rest of the table had finished their meals before my replacement arrived. So that's always a bummer to eat alone. I do appreciate that they remade it, but the second plate came out looking rushed and messy compared to the first. Presentation matters. Like the fries were reused from my first plate and just dumped or something. Flavor-wise? I ate about 90% of one half and called it good. The flavor combo just wasn't my thing. Now -- because fairness matters -- we have to talk about the in-theater dining (same restaurant, totally different experience). We LOVEEE the tavern fries and the pepperoni pizza. Like, drooling level. Just make sure the pizza actually comes with the fresh basil and the tavern fries have the green onions. When those garnishes are missing, the flavors feel heavier. When they're there? Elite. For us? Theater dining forever. Sit-down dining... probably not again. Ambiance: 10/10 Theater food: Elite Sit-down experience: A reminder that not all menus are created equal

The biggest highlight for us was the Dine-In Luxury service. You can order meals, appetizers, and full-sized desserts right from the comfort of your movie seat. The servers deliver everything right to your seat! It felt very elevated. With that, comes higher quality food but also restaurant-level prices and portions. This venue perfect for a date night or going with one other person, as opposed to a large group, because the seats are very private. (Or opt for a non luxury option and sit right next to your friends.) I kind of missed the old school classic Megaplex feel but it was really fun to try the new experience for myself. I could get used to having my cinema snacks brought straight to my chair!

    Cool interactive three-story planetarium in Salt Lake City's Gateway District located across the…read morestreet from Delta Center (home of NBA's Utah Jazz and NHL's Utah Mammoth). We actually didn't realize that this would be an interactive kind of thing until we first stepped in. Entry is free and you get an immediate hands-on experience once you walk in. We visited on a Friday evening and the crowd traffic wasn't too bad. It was busy, but not extremely busy by any means. The first floor includes asteroids and Mother Nature stuff, like tornadoes and volcanoes. There's a tornado that you can step into and it actually destroys it when you walk into it. But don't think if you've ruined it, because it will come back when you walk out of it. You can also touch the moon and billions old asteroids and play around with a volcano simulator. I even tried to lift a meteorite and it was quite heavy! On the second floor you will find an IMAX theater, where you can watch space movies. Concessions are included like in a real movie theater. No food or drinks are allowed in their other theater on the third floor, however. The third floor is all about space and planets. We got to learn what various planets smell like by pressing a button and putting our nose in front of the vent. We also got to see how water freezes (under a magnifying glass) and a special camera of what our body temperature was like. We also walked into a red planet room with interactive robots. This room definitely looked like something out of Star Wars. If you like anything space related and if you're looking for something to do in the Gateway District, I recommend Clark Planetarium!

It was a fun little activity, especially considering it's free! Is it the most impressive museum you'll ever go to? No, but my nephew had fun and honestly that's all that matters!
