Customer service here was fantastic, i'm also impressed by our waitress who took down 4 people's orders + customizations w/o any notes! Parking lot can be a bit tough especially when it's crowded. Recommend getting Hoss - fried chicken biscuit loaded with gravy 4.5/5 Biscuit benedict - 3/5 nothing crazy, thought it was comparable to other benedicts, but maybe user error and should've added the cubano meat to it. Not sure though as $20 for an egg benny is pretty pricey, $16 w/o the cubano meat Def try their limeades, made in house!

It's been years since we ate here. We went on the weekend and it was packed. That's a good sign that they are still doing well. There is a little parking lot in the back but it was full so we ending parking on the street. It's kind of a small place for how popular it is. Maybe 15 tables? The service was great. We got seated right away and got our drinks quickly. I had to try a biscuit and a limeade so I got a Honeydew Cucumber Mint Limeade and a Garden Benedict with the hollandaise on the side. The drink was amazing. They put sugar on the rim. I would go back just for that. I liked that they were able to put the sauce on the side of my benedict so that I could taste everything separately. The biscuits are delicious. I especially liked their red quinoa potato hash browns. It was very flavorful. The rest of the table got the Hoss and the Blueberry Biscuit Cake. The biscuit bake is more like a dessert so I wouldn't get that as a meal next time. I definitely would come back to try more off the menu. More breakfast items, the sandwiches and salads. This place is still really really good after all these years.

stopped by for a quick bite on the way to moab and it was the bessst decision. the hoss is IMPOSSIBLE to eat as a sandwich, so i ate in sections and i literally ate every last bite, down to the gravy on the plate. the biscuit is perfection (fluffy and crunchy), the chicken cutlet was juicy, the egg perfectly runny, and the gravy was spiced yet let the sausage sing. so gooood. my only regret is not getting a limeade!

Decent breakfast spot. Ambiance: Street parking, and small initial store front but they have a pretty large back area for seating. Super cute decor with a fun vibe. Service: I was with a pretty large party, but they were able to seat us quickly despite being busy. Server was also efficient and friendly. Food: Everyone had a variety of things, but the limeaide was sweet and refreshing, the basic B was decent and what you wanted out of a biscuit breakfast sandwich, and the hash bomb was deliciously fried. Overall, nice spot for breakfast!

Delicious biscuits and delicious limeade! To top it off, the sweetest staff. Loved all of the limeades-- personally liked the mint limeade the best, but my boyfriend liked the cucumber melon the best. The raspberry limeade was also great! Wasn't too hungry so we just got the biscuit bar & my friend got the Hoss. Biscuits are so buttery, rich, but also light and slightly flaky! Loved them with the butter best, since they were so good on their own. The Hoss was great as well-- I really enjoyed the savory gravy with the biscuit. Perfect meal!

We are visiting SLC and needed some breakfast. This place had great reviews so figured we'd try it out. It was delicious. They had a special with breakfast tacos and my husband had the garden hash. Both were very good. Lots of fresh pico and veggies on both. The corn tortillas we soft and chewy (did not taste like basic store bought tortillas). My husband really enjoyed the fresh salsa and hot sauces they have. The other food we saw looked amazing as well! Their biscuits look so fluffy and light! We came early Saturday morning and were able to be seated right away. Food came out quickly. It is not a large restaurant but it's clean and nicely decorated. We'd come back again just to try the biscuits and a limeade

Biscuits were really fluffy and buttery. We ordered the Hoss and the Garden Eggs Benedict. Both dishes were very satisfying and filling! I felt that every element of the dish was thought out and meshed well together. The only reason I would give 4 stars is because of the drinks. We ordered the raspberry limeade and honeydew limeade and while the raspberry one was pretty good, the honeydew one had no honeydew flavor and was underwhelming. Both drinks also had a layer of sugar on the bottom so every other sip was just a mouthful of sugar.. The service didn't stand out to me in a good or bad way. Overall, I think I would come back!

Stopped in at Sweet Lake Biscuits & Limeade last July on my way from the airport to Park City, and let me tell you--this place knows how to do comfort food! First things first: that Fresh Mint Limeade. I could drink it by the gallon, but I'm guessing I'd need to ski a LOT to balance that out. Totally worth it. I hit the Early Bird menu (love a good deal!) and got to try two things: Half Benny - I'm a Benny fanatic (check my other reviews), and this one was solid! The hollandaise had a unique twist--not your standard sauce--but the overall dish leaned a bit on the heavy side, especially with the hash. Sun's Out - Sausage gravy? Yes, please. The grilled tomatoes added a nice brightness, but still a very stick-to-your-ribs meal. Maybe a little green salad on the side would help balance things out? Or maybe this is just the kind of cozy, carb-filled goodness you need when it's freezing outside. Overall, Sweet Lake hits the spot if you're craving hearty, Southern-inspired breakfasts with a twist. Just maybe plan a hike (or a ski run) afterward.

I needed a hearty lunch in Salt Lake after visiting the History Museum. I went at 11:30 on a Monday and they were pretty busy. I was by myself and was seated quickly. I started with the raspberry limeade and it was so tasty, I was most impressed by the large amount of raspberries in the drink. It was incredible and something I will crave. I decided on the eggs benedict, it was a great portion size and was just what I needed. It was satisfying and very delicious. If I lived in Salt Lake I would be coming here often.

I've driven by Sweet Lake a few times, and finally stopped by! A slight downside to this location is the small parking lot. A few people in our group had to search for street parking, which isn't horrible (at least it's free) but it does take time to walk back to the restaurant after parking. Luckily, our (fairly large) group had a bit of a wait, so we were able to go park and come back before we were seated. Also, if you have a larger group (we had 7 people), an 18% gratuity is automatically added to your bill. Our server was very nice and made sure to point that out to us before we paid for everything on one check. Everyone enjoyed their meals! The workers were super friendly, and let us talk amongst ourselves throughout the meal while still refilling waters and bringing sauces. The garden hash gives you a good helping of food for the $11 price tag.
