Utopian Tailgate
3.8 / 5 (1206 reviews)

Description

Utopian Tailgate offers a vibrant rooftop atmosphere with stunning city views, ideal for gatherings and photo ops. While the decor exudes a lively jungle feel and the diverse menu features impressive dishes crafted by a renowned chef, service and attention to detail seem inconsistent. Some guests praised the attentive staff and flavorful drinks, while others encountered lengthy security checks and disappointing food orders. The music can be excessively loud, making conversation difficult, and finding the entrance presents a challenge. Overall, Utopian Tailgate is a lively spot to enjoy drinks and socializing, but be prepared for some quirks.

Thank you for the great birthday experience, the staff was great and thankyou to our waitress sparkle!!!

My friends and family came to celebrate my daughters 25th birthday. It was everyone's first time and it was such a great experience. The staff was very nice and accommodating. We will definitely be back. Thank you, Sparkle

Worse establishment ever! Security checkpoint makes it seem as we were entering a state jail. Super aggressive getting checked in with a metal detector and demanding, makes you feel like we’re entering a ghetto bar for sure. Overpriced drinks and food. Ordered a plate of fries and our order never came through. I don’t recommend coming and wasting your money. Staff is distracted and not attentive at all.

This rooftop spot in the old town is a blast and very entertaining! The views are spectacular, the food is tasty, and the drinks pack a punch. We ordered a combination platter to share, which included a little bit of everything: pizza, nachos, wings, sliders, fries, and corn ribs. We also snapped a lot of great photos with the city skyline and the art they have displayed around the venue. Just be sure to make a reservation before you head out, or you might not get a table.
