Reviews Summary

Whiskey Street is celebrated for its impressive spirit selection and inventive cocktails, complemented by well-executed American comfort food. Diners frequently praise the lively atmosphere and friendly, attentive service, even during busy periods. However, some guests have noted that certain dishes can be overly salty or served cold, and there are concerns about the pricing of specific premium liquors.

"We had a gift card to Whiskey Street, so we decided to stop in for dinner. The restaurant wasn’t busy, and we were seated right away. We started with the ahi tuna appetizer, which was honestly the highlight of the meal, absolutely delicious. For our entrees, we ordered the poutine and the jerk chicken, and both were full of flavor and cooked perfectly. The staff was friendly and attentive, and overall, the experience was great!"

Alex

"Solid food good drinks friendly staff. Our waitress was very attentive even though the place was packed. Stopped in for a business dinner all the appetizers were amazing I recommend the deviled eggs and brussel sprouts. For dinner I had the Cuban sandwich and fries very good I'll be back to try other items off the menu."

Salvador Martinez

"We were there for lunch, so maybe an unfair way to judge, but I like this small bar/restaurant. They have a well-stocked bar, a number of their own craft cocktail creations, plus they can make all the classics.

I had the party melt, which came with a fresh dressed salad of arugula. The patty melt itself was one of the better renditions of this classic sandwich. It was topped with perfectly caramelized onions, gruyere cheese, and Russian dressing really great bread. The way u beef patty was cooked exactly right, and was tender and juicy. The salmon was perfectly cooked and declared sensational.

The service was excellent.

Great cocktails, great bar food and full meals.; what more can you ask for."

The wide selection of whiskeys and spiced nuts make for a relaxing and fun evening at Whiskey Street, where the food is just as good as the drinks. Poutine and pork belly corn dogs go great with a bourbon, rye or single malt on their extensive menu. This is hip and popular bar is buzzing with chatter most nights.

Like a library for liquor, Whiskey Street (323 S. Main St.) displays its selection of whiskeys on dark wood shelves behind the main bar with some bottles being so pricey that they are locked away in display cabinets. The whole feel of the narrow space is Western saloon meets 21st-century urban oasis. Whether you grab a booth along the wall or sit companionably with friendly strangers at the bar, you’ll likely have a great time sampling from the long list of whiskeys and beers at this nighttime destination.

A guide to Salt Lake City's burgeoning bar scene

Brigham Young nicknamed this stretch “Whiskey Street” for the numerous bars and a liquor store in the area. (It became Main Street in 1906.) Whiskey Street Cocktails & Dining keeps that legacy going strong with a 2,200-plus collection of spirits, 400 of which are whiskeys. It’s not an easy collection to build in a state where liquor laws are so tough that Jason LeCates, managing partner of Bourbon Group (which owns the bar), can’t just go online to an auction site and purchase specific bottles.

Before it was Main Street, this road was dubbed “Whiskey Street” because it was lined with bars. Anchored by a 42-foot long cherry wood bar backed with bottles and centered with a stand-up table, Whiskey Street serves food but is mainly a place to bend the elbow.
