    Been a while since I left a review. Besides their endless beers, nothing has changed! Parking lot is huge but this place is ALWAYS busy!! Thursday night we had a 25-40 min wait for 2, but they check you in w text so you can hang at the bar etc. and it went by so fast we didn't even have time to pick a beer at the bar haha before our table was ready. I haven't had a bad pizza here yet either! And I love the size cause it's not too much pizza but also not too little. Goldilocks pizza I guess love love love! Still one of my fav places to bring out of town guests! My friend loved it!

    Line waiting wasn't too bad especially when you can use Yelp to get in line ahead of time. Pizza--sweet fluffy bread crust. It's fun to try but not my ideal for a pizza. It had more of a bread feel to it than a crust and dominated the pizza rather than completing it. The crust edge was also very large in relationship to the toppings middle. Grape and Gorgeous flavor was delicious. The spin-art dip was thick cheese and surprisingly needed to be more dippable to enjoy. Limited artichoke flavor, mainly cheese Service was all over the place. We waited about 15 min for our check. Understand that it gets busy here but 15 min is quite excessive to wait.

    I've been to this location a few times now, most recently after going to an aerial class with my Yelp fam. I first went to the location in Ogden before it moved down to Salt Lake County. I love the unique flavor combinations of pizzas. I also love that they have GF and vegan options as well. Our service this past Wednesday was great! We were seated pretty quickly, even on a somewhat busy evening. Our server was attentive and patient with us. He definitely took care of us that night. All of the pizzas we got were delicious! The wings at Slackwater were great too (my husband always gets wings if they're on the menu, and these did not disappoint)! They also carried Shades Brewing sours, which we were excited about. We did spend a few minutes outside, next to the fire pits, finishing off the night in more conversation on a cold night.

    We decided to come to Slackwater after our wedding day and they were incredible to us! We got sat immediately, our server Emma was so incredibly sweet and so on top of it. She mentioned to us that she had just been sat a 50 top, but she still had the food out to us so fast. She also gave us some free beignets and when the check came out she told us that Slackwater had actually covered our bill. We come to Slackwater all of the time for date night, but we are amazed every single time we come back. Thank you Emma for taking such incredible care of us and to Slackwater for helping us celebrate our wedding! See you guys soon!

    Diablo sticks, Super spicy!!

    We came with a group of six on a Wednesday evening and only waited around 15 minutes, which was nice. Our waitress was wonderful, super friendly and welcoming. I ordered the California Sunrise and liked it. My husband enjoyed his Iron Horse pizza, and everyone else seemed happy with their meals. However, we specifically chose this spot because they offer gluten-free options, and two of our friends are gluten-free, including one with serious celiac disease. Unfortunately, he got sick about an hour later, likely from cross-contamination. It was really disappointing and potentially dangerous for someone with severe celiac, so just something to be aware of if that applies to you. I really hope the restaurant takes better precautions in the future.

    Absolutely amazing dinner at Slackwater. Traveling from Cleveland, Ohio and my group stumbled upon Slackwater for dinner. Amazing, robust menu, pleasant knowledge service and absolutely delicious food! I had the butternut squash soup and butternut special pizza. YUM! I'll be back!!

    Italian job with feta
    Nicki M.

    If you're looking for good pizza - go here. Oh my gosh. This was exactly the type of place I was hoping to find during a quick work trip to SLC. Found thru Apple Maps and after looking at the menu, decided to try for myself. The flavors here are so good! I ordered the pumpkin gochujang wings which were a good combo of sweet and salty. I kinda wish all the wings were consistent in size (a couple of mine were puny) but its fine for the price IMO. PIZZA: I went for the Italian Job and per my bartenders rec, added feta (JUST DO IT). Holy pizza! This is like the perfect Italian sub (pubsub IYKYK) but in pizza form. I will dream about this pizza until I can return back to SLC.

    Buffalo chicken pizza
    Cassie C.

    I was in the area for work and learned just how busy and popular this place is! Granted we had a large party (they looked like they accommodated a lot of large parties), but even with how busy it was we only had to wait about 15 minutes on a Wednesday. They have a lot of great beer and cider options, either on top or bottled. I noticed they even had one of my local favorites from where I live back in the California, the Cali Squeeze! But I had to try something new so I got a tasty cucumber cider. This place definitely has to be known for its pizzas, as the entire back side of the menu has at least 20+ different pizza combos. But if those aren't enough to choose form, you can also make your own! I was having a hard time choosing but ultimately went with the Buffalo Chicken Pizza. It was pretty tasty, and if I come here while in town again, I'll definitely try out one of their other pizza options.

    What a popular place to visit!! We walked in around 5pm on a Monday night and stood in line to get seated. We were able to get seated right away outside which we didn't mind as it was in the shade and under an umbrella. Sometimes Utah in July can get a bit toasty! Our waitress was very attentive and sweet to walk over the most popular menu items with us. The Check Your Garlic Breath was incredible!! They over served the amount of Gorgonzola cream cheese as we had a TON left over - we should have asked for more of that delicious house made toasted focaccia. The pizza was incredible. Their dough has this hint of sweetness to it that makes you want to keep going in for more! I have never had avocado on a pizza, and now I don't want pizza any other way. Such a fun, vibrant and busy place to dine at!

    Italian Job Pizza
    Isabella N.

    This place is the BEST!!! We go very often and I almost always order the Italian job pizza and it is absolutely amazing every time I have it. I have also tried many other pizzas and they are so delicious too. The servers are always so nice and helpful. My fiance gets the monthly special wings almost every time as well - his favorite are the Al pastor wings. I could go on and on, I love Slackwater!!!

    Worst pizza ever. Ordered the spicy pizza. There was HUGE chunks of garlic all over. Like half a clove per dice. This was the most disgusting pizza ever. Papa Murphys is better

    Nearly 5 years after my initial review, and Slackwater continues to dazzle with it's delectable food -- it's become my go-to recommendation for family and friends who are visiting from outside of Utah (which now includes myself). The California Sunrise and Iron Horse pizzas hit the spot on our last visit, and despite a very full restaurant, our orders were delivered quickly. 12/10 would recommend!

    Alyssia N.

    This place knows how to do pizzas! I thought the crust and the taste of the dough was so good! I also loved how unique the flavors were! These pizzas are to die for! The service was also super nice! This is a fun place to come to hang out with friends and get a good pizza! I will be coming back!

    Ask the Community - Slackwater

    Could I bring my own cake to celebrate a birthday after dining here?

    Absolutely

    Is the normal menu also available or just the brunch menu during brunch?

    Both menus are available.

    Are there gluten free options?

    Yes there is!

    Is the waitlist on Yelp reliable?

    Yes it's quite reliable. I hate to say the trick but always sit at the bar if possible though. Hardly ever a wait and better service even though all good.

    Are kids allowed or is it a bar bar and hence no kids?

    Kids are all good. We've brought our girl (they have high chairs) and seen others with children.

    Are they Dog Friendly when dining in the outdoor patio?

    Yes! We brought our dog and our waitress even brought her a small thing of water

    When're you opening a location downtown?

    It’s open now

    Do you have heated outdoor dining available?

    Kassandra, we do not have any outdoor patio seating available during the winter season. Hope you will visit us this spring when our patios open!

    Is there gluten free options?

    Absolutely there are! We have a homemade gluten free crust!

    How's the alcohol here? Are the drinks decently strong?

    I have only had the beer there but they have an extensive list! I have heard the mixed drinks are great though and strong enough.

    Do they sell pizza by the slice?

    No just 11” personal pizzas.

From the moment we arrived, we sat ourselves at the bar and were warmly welcomed by Cody, who took the time to thoughtfully explain not only the menu but everything the brewery had to offer. You could tell right away that they genuinely care about the experience here. The atmosphere was fun and inviting with free cornhole, free darts, and even dollar pool tables--such a great touch. Bridget jumped in behind the bar as well and was full of personality, great conversation, and positive energy that made the night even better.

When I asked my friends if they wanted another shot, Carol interrupted and asked, "Who's driving?" We ubered. We had also eaten and were not acting drunk, loud, or causing any problems. It wasn't the question that bothered us--it was the way she asked it and how she spoke to us afterward. Her tone was condescending and made us feel like she thought we were irresponsible and didn't know our own limits. We are all well over 21 and were simply enjoying food and drinks. After snarkily saying, "Let's think about that first.." she walked away and never came back to our table. Angie ended up helping us and checking us out and telling us our waitresses name. Angie was kind, professional, and even apologized for our experience even though none of it was her fault. The rude service from Carol completely ruined what was otherwise a nice night out. We have NEVER been treated this way before at other places. Because of how we were treated, I will not be returning.

We're staying in South Jordan and visited Bohemian Brewery in Midvale for dinner after getting checked into and dropping our bags off at our hotel. The brewery is easy to find but the entrance into the parking lot can be easier to miss. We walked inside and were seated immediately since it wasn't busy for a Thursday night. Along with some outdoor seating, additional seating can be found upstairs if it gets really busy. They have lots of alcohol choices and a massive cocktail list; their spring/summer cocktail list is available now. One cocktail they have I thought was clever was The Ghost of Burt Reynolds. We ordered a beer flight that consisted of the following beers; Cherny Bock (Czech black lager), Noble Hefeweizen (German-style Hefe), Bohemian Weiss (unfiltered wheat lager), and Viennese Amber (malty amber lager). Out of all these, my favorites were the Noble Hefeweizen and the Viennese Amber beers. For food, I got the Margherita pizza and my LTP got the Reuben sandwich with fries on the side. We had just completed a nearly six hour long drive to Utah from Nevada and I ended up finishing the entire pizza, which is a rare thing for me to do when I go out to eat. My LTP, on the other hand, who ALWAYS finishes everything on his plate, was the complete opposite. He could only finish one part of his sandwich and half his fries before deciding to take it back with him. I really enjoyed the European-style feel of this place. The interior is very similar to that of a ski lodge, complete with a fireplace in the downstairs dining area. I would love to come back to Bohemian Brewery during our next trip to Utah.

The burger is a good smash burger and the brat is a good brat. Both were cooked great and good choice of options for whatever toppings/options you may be feeling. The onion rings were fire. My two negatives: 1: The price. It's not insanely expensive, especially when you consider how large the size of the items are, but definitely on the pricier side if you're just wanting to hop over on lunch break or something. 2: The buns. I have to assume their Hawaiian bun is a love it or hate it type of deal. I found the buns too sweet and they got soggy very quickly. It's a cool idea with the Hawaiian bun, but I found it to be less than desirable for my own taste. Would be cool to see an alternative option. Overall a good spot and will likely be coming back.

But we sat there for a few minutes wondering if the guy was going to come back... It took 20 minutes to get our food. (There were maybe 3-4 other people in the restaurant, it wasn't busy.) When we got our food, my chili and my hotdog were cold... and my husband's order was wrong.
