HallPass

HallPass is a restaurant in Salt Lake City, Utah, at 153 S Rio Grande St, Salt Lake City, UT 84101. Rather than a conventional single-menu dining room, it has the feel of a quirky, compact food hall: customers can choose from several restaurant concepts in one shared space. Visitors have reported a broad range of choices, with five restaurant counters open during one visit, so it can work well when people in a group want different kinds of food. The setting is described as subdued, with dark colors, a bar area, and seating that ranges from tables for two to space for larger groups.

The food options mentioned by customers include gyro and fries, meals from Codspeed, and barbecue from Hog & Tradition. One guest praised a gyro as excellent, while another enjoyed Hog & Tradition’s brisket, describing a pleasing mix of crisp edges and juicy flavor. That meal also included sauces with a pronounced flavor and ube cornbread, which the reviewer found light. A customer also called the restaurant’s combination meals a good value. These are specific visitor experiences rather than a complete menu, but they offer a useful sense of the variety and dishes people have enjoyed at HallPass.

Ordering is handled through self-service tablets, and pickup notifications can arrive by text message. This setup gives diners a hands-on way to place an order, though one visitor noted that the system required a U.S. mobile number and was not convenient for an overseas tourist. Staff helped that guest complete the order. Reviews also describe friendly service, including employees who took time to explain Utah alcohol laws to customers. The overall experience can feel informal and independent, with ordering and pickup differing from the more traditional table-service restaurant model. Checking the ordering process at arrival may be helpful, particularly for visitors without a U.S. phone number.

HallPass may suit downtown visitors looking for several food choices in one stop, friends or families with different tastes, and larger parties that need a range of seating options. Its bar area and subdued atmosphere offer another reason to stay and eat on site. Customer feedback is varied, but the restaurant has a 4.1 rating from 1,595 reviews, giving prospective diners a substantial body of local and visitor impressions to consider. HallPass is open Monday through Thursday and Sunday from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m., and Friday and Saturday from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. For a casual meal in Salt Lake City, it brings multiple food choices together at one address.
