Purgatory - Salt Lake City

This is a great spot for a quick meal and some delicious drinks. Our group of five was lucky enough to get seated first because one of our friends arrived before opening to stand in line. The queue was quite long, stretching out the door. The restaurant offers an intriguing fusion menu. I tried the Udon bowl, which was really tasty, while my friends opted for tacos and breakfast platters that came with the usual toast, potatoes, eggs, bacon, and spam.

My first experience at a bar in a “dry state“ The servers and bartenders here were very friendly. The menu was delicious too and they have a unique variety of customize drinks. I came to watch the game and stayed even a little bit longer after it.

Was looking for a good brunch spot near our hotel in downtown SLC and so glad I found this spot. Very cool, and hip boozy brunch place, with a live DJ, and great outdoor dining setup. It was really hot and all the seats with shade were taken, so we sat inside facing the outdoor space, so it kinda felt like you were outside, but not in the sun (you choose where you want to sit). The staff was super friendly and the food was absolutely delicious. I ordered the Sunrise Burger, which came with perfectly crispy home fries, and my gf ordered the Breaky bowl, which was delicious as well. They even had a nitro cold brew which was smooth and hit the spot. The DJ was on point, and played mostly 90s and 2000s hip hop, that I haven't heard in years, and loved every track, while enjoying my meal. Definitely coming back here next time I'm in SLC.

Great atmosphere! Definitely a fun vibe. And the food is good too. I had the pan fried udon and it was great. I think it lacked a wee bit in flavor but it was still well done for that type of dish and the noodles were well cooked. We also had the Korean fries as an appetizer and they were good, but not great. It was a huge portion and the fries were very mediocre and standard. They do have served other dishes on the menu I do what to go back and try, one being the rice and ton-katsu.

Had the k-pop fries and the pan-fried udon. Both were really tasty, and the udon was one of the best vegan dishes I’ve ever had. If I were to get the fries again, I would want to share them with at least 3 other people, because it’s a large amount. Friendly service.
