The Rest

Salt Lake City


This low-lit novelty is worth the stumbling around it might take to find it if you are looking for something different. Go downstairs from Bodega, a convenience store/tavern to get to the cool speakeasy part. Strong honey-lavender and lime-cucumber concoctions go down easy with an order of billowy beignets. Table seating by reservation only.
