Alleged's menu features 20 cocktails that all have 2.5 ounces of liquor. Each drink is as strong as a Long Island or AMF, but tastier. The standard metered pour is 1.5 ounces, but Alleged has a huge assortment of "flavorings" to fully maximize that provision in state law.
Alleged is an eclectic bar in a historic building that was last used as a whorehouse. The club has three floor with three atmospheres: The mellow Rooftop Bar, with its views of downtown Ogden; The Brothel, which features an open design and unisex bathrooms; and Moxie, home to a dance floor and a faster pace.
Metro earned its reputation for fun by serving up refreshing beverages and throwing great dance parties and special events in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City.

An intimate Vegas-style martini-bar-cum-DJ-venue, owned by That ‘70s Show star Danny Masterson (who occasionally moonlights at the club as DJ Mom Jeans), Downstairs is a chic gathering of nooks and sofas with a fireplace and wood décor to add to the upscale lounge charm. With a well-stocked bar, including classics such as mai tais and kamikazes, Downstairs is a bar that prizes its cool, laid-back vibe as much as its polished selection of vinyl spinners and roster of nationally touring DJs.
The best thing about Brewvies is right there in its name: movies combined with beer. Sure, there's a large bar space complete with eating area, billiards, several video games and a couple of televisions. But really, the reason to go to downtown Salt Lake City's Brewvies is to be able to sit in a dark theater with a full meal in front of you and a nice frothy beer in hand as you watch the latest blockbuster.

Get weird, downtown Salt Lake City. Themes are taken seriously at this dance club, and they keep club-goers on their toes: hip-hop, '80s, carnival, heavy metal, traveling vampire and much more. It's not for nothing, either: The club posts the photos of the festivities to Facebook, so patrons can show off their outrageous ensembles for weeks to come. The music is fast enough to dance to. Talk about aliens and your new friends will love you.

At Bambara, the chef dazzles guests nightly with his superb, but unpretentious fare. With its full-exhibition kitchen, you’ll be able to enjoy dinner and a show at Bambara, located in the heart of downtown Salt Lake City. I still can’t resist the restaurant's warm house-cut potato chips slathered with bleu cheese, or delectable crab-stuffed piquillo peppers with corn tartar sauce and crisp chorizo. And the lavender-grilled ahi tuna with heirloom tomato bread salad, salsa verde and black olive aioli is marvelous. Bambara’s service is top-notch in every way, leaving you to only concern yourself with licking your plate clean, which will come quite naturally.

The Exchange Place space formerly known as The Lazy Moon sat unoccupied for nearly a decade until summer 2015, when nightclub/restaurant Twist opened in the unique multi-level venue. In addition to fencing off the sizable patio area—much to the chagrin of local wedding photographers—the interior of the former 19th-century boiler room has been given a sleek makeover that is at once classic and modern. Same goes for its specialty drink menu, expansive beer and wine lists and food that has patrons raving. There's no club like this in Utah; you've got to see (and taste) it for yourself.
