    The food seriously never disappoints!! The service is always great here, never have gotten a waiter that isn't amazing. The music, games, and vibes here never disappoint either !

    We were glad to find this place open for a late night meal considering we were in Utah. The place seems to be popular for late night drinking and we were one of the few tables that were there for a meal. The menu is fusion-y and we ordered the udon carbonara and the fried rice. I really enjoyed the carbonara. Service was a little slow as they seemed to be more focused with serving those in the bar area.

    I love purgatory! I usually end up here after hearing the wait time at Sapa, which they are owned by the same people. We walking into Purgatory around 6:30 on a Saturday and were sat right away. When we were leaving around 8, there was a line out the door. Parking can be a little bit of a mess if both lots are full. Purgatory has a more casual vibe with a bar, high tops, and space outside to eat (when the weather permits) I have seen the snow globe tables outside before but not sure when or if those will go up. The food is delicious - a twist on some original favorites. I got the fried rice which I did feel was lacking something, I felt like I could have made that at home. The k-pop fries are my absolute favorite, we always get those.

    In the way of mixology venues, and yes, you have to call this a mixology venue, this reminds me of an NYC place. The cocktail selection, alcohol selection and beer selection tells me they know some things about beverages. Sat at the bar. Definitely a "boss move" ala my guy Jacoby of ESPN. Bartender or should I say mixologist gave me a cocktail he created with tequila, and lo and behold, they have Tres Generaciones as a shot option. Wow!! That says a lot. Great time!! Food is delicious as well. So good that I did brunch twice today
