The food is really good for this style of pub. I personally go back for the smoked wings (fried are great too). I have tried a number of different items from their menu, I can't recall ever being disappointed by a meal or a brew that I've had. This place gets BUSY. They know how to pack it in. Live music, friendly atmosphere. The staff does a really good job bouncing around to make sure things are taken care of. Service times can run a little long. And parking can be the biggest hurdle as it fills up. But I wouldn't let either of those deter you from trying this place, you won't be disappointed.

We finally got our order but then waited forever to try to get another drink, never happened. We had to tell the door guy again we wanted our ticket and when she brought the ticket my bf let her know the service is terrible and she ran off. We would've had more drinks but we decided to leave. We didn't use a card because we didn't want to wait forever to get that, so we left just enough cash to cover the bill. I hope the servers are making money somewhere because they definitely didn't get much of a tip from us and we're big tippers. Food was average bar food.

Wine and fries make an excellent dinner. And it was delightful.

They have something like 10 taps, lots of it is pretty nice craft beer. On Tuesdays, it's only $2! Apparently they have been offering this deal for decades! What's the catch? They are operating as a restaurant so in Utah, you are required to order food with your drinks. They do have some cheaper food options and the servers are very cool with you sharing food. I recommend getting a pizza to share! As far as the food is concerned, it's your pretty standard bar/pub food but a little bit more upscale. So, it's a good spot if you're looking for something that everyone will enjoy. Their pizzas are popular and very reasonably priced. Porcupine is also a great location for post mountain activities and right along multiple trail routes. I frequently find myself here after an intense outdoor activity, looking for air conditioning and good food. The nice thing about them operating as a restaurant is that it's kid friendly! They also have a really nice patio with a beautiful view! See you there on Tuesday!

I promise you won't get in trouble!" Uh-huh. ;) Alright, I digress. Awkwardness aside, Prohibition is a really great place to enjoy a classy dinner, where the meat is served on a place AND on stage, and the cheesecake comes with the price of admission! Speaking of admission, as my wife and I were guests, being shepherded along by our friend, I cannot recall exactly what the "cover charge" was (not much, if I remember correctly...less than $20 for two?), and if reservations are *required*, I cannot say for certain, but I would say they are *recommended* at the very least, because our showtime was packed. Anyway, once paid, you are escorted through a secret bookcase door (SLC residents sure do love their speakeasies, don't they?), and into the dining hall and saloon, where you're soon to have your socks knocked off...well, someone's clothes are coming off, anyway! We were given a table that I dismissively thought was tucked away pretty far in the back and out of the way, but it ended up being one of the best seats in the house, as the table where the performers gathered, prepped, and returned to was just adjacent to us, so we were about as up close and personal as you can get, without getting yourselves arrested. Each of the dancers brought their own style, flair, and wardrobe to their performances, which were spirited and energetic, and a touch racy, without devolving into outright debauchery. It may be an (18+? 21+?) venue, but alcohol restrictions aside, I wouldn't hesitate to take older, more mature teens to a show with similar content. We ordered a smattering of smaller dishes, as we weren't particularly hungry, but the Mishima Wagyu tacos were fantastic (as you would expect), as was the Fedora Fin (Za'atar-crusted ahi tuna), and all of our cocktails. As the show is timed event with multiple performances per night, both food and bev are fired out of the kitchen/bar faster than the bullets from a Tommy Gun, but with far better accuracy. The whole operation here was honestly very impressive, from start to finish. Coming from a progressive city like Portland, it's always struck me a little odd that places that, by reputation, strike you as more conservative end up having some of the best, most wild entertainment venues, that you only wish you had back home. Prohibition is one of these places that I would rather see in my downtown, instead of the litany of seedy strip joints pushing for maximum titilation, but with only a fraction of the class and sophistication. Prohibition is good, clean fun, masquerading as something illicit, which is the heart of what makes it work so well.

But when I was invited to check it out with someone who actually can carry a tune, I was happy to go along. This is a dark, sort of divey place and it's a popular local hangout. Early in the evening, it was kind of quiet, but it got much busier as the night went on-and once karaoke really got going, the place was hopping. The crowd was generally supportive of each other-whether the performance was good or not-and the KJ kept things moving along with a good variety of song styles. He even inserted himself into the mix a few times and sang from the song booth. Service is friendly, although the servers don't come around frequently, so you might have better luck going to the bar to get a drink. But what they lack in speed they make up for in friendliness-everyone is welcome and it's a fun place to hang out and let loose a bit.
