Over-priced buffet style food. Options are okay, but nothing spectacular. Desserts are a bit better, because well it’s ddessert. The waitresses only bring drinks, and though you have to have a reservation to eat there, they are VERY VERY stingy with how long you can stay and eat. They get rude if you are longer than 30 minutes and start hinting for you to leave even if you aren’t done. At the 45 minute mark they kick you out. Now, this wouldn’t be an issue, if they tell you when you make a reservation you have a time limit, that would be different. With what you spend to eat there, you would think you would be treated better.

This is an old review and is based on before they closed during pandemic/renovation. Found some photos so I decided to write this review anyway. Cost of buffet is on the high range but what you’re paying for here is the view. I’ve dine here several times but there’s nothing spectacular in this restaurant. Poor ambience, dated interior, food is comparable to Chuck-a-rama in terms of taste but in an upgraded presentation, service I guess is ok and you have a live piano playing in the background while dining. Other than that, not worth the trip. I do hope though that they will make some great or grand improvements when they reopen to make it worthwhile.

A gorgeous view of the entire Temple Square! Their hot chocolate is definitely a refreshing drink to start with! Roasted beef is succulent although the dessert is just a little bit too sweet. Considering also their phenomenal service from table assignment throughout check out, the Roof Restaurant certainly offers one of the best buffets in the country.

What a great first impression of Salt Lake City! WOW, these people do not mess around when it comes to food, service and architecture. All of the food was fantastic and they had a great selection. The desserts were drool worthy. I ate so much that I almost felt a little sick by the time we were finished. The view was incredible! The servers were also very efficient and friendly. Would’ve been great to have a glass of wine with this meal, but I respect their customs.

This place is It’s soooo good! The service was lovely, they bring by rolls that are killer. They have a pianist that’s playing tunes at all times and it’s just a great experience. A beautiful view of the Salt Lake Temple and one side the capital. The food was exquisite. It’s a buffet and wow, ain’t never been to a buffet like that before. Honestly, this was probably my favorite dining out experience ever.

This is a classy restaurant with gorgeous views of Salt Lake City‘s Temple Square. It is a buffet extraordinaire! This night there was prime rib and King crab claws and vegetables and other entrées and sides with fancy ingredients including a gourmet mac & cheese. The decadent desserts were presented in small portions so that you could sample several of them.

Superb food, and even better service! I’ve been here a handful of times, and have immensely enjoyed it every time. The pricing is about $40ish a person, but they serve incredible food in a BUFFET. So you easily get your money’s worth with the quality and quantity of food. My favorite part is the dessert buffet! Super tasty, and the views are absolutely amazing. Perfect for special occasions or just for fun.
