We were visiting from St. Louis and some Utah locals recommended this restaurant, it did not disappoint! If I could get those rolls and the best sweet butter I have ever had on the plane, I would!
Came here while on vacation and the place, as well as the food, was very good. The roasted turkey and homemade rolls are definitely a must-try.
Nice meal
If you're in the temple square area this is a good option for lunch. Fresh ingredients made for a tasty meal in a historic setting. From what I hear the only drawback is they sometimes run out of some items. Everything is reasonably priced.
Had the pleasure of participating in a catered meal here for a conference I was attending. The event took place in an upper level room that I believe was the original bedroom. This is an interesting place full of history and was a nice setting for a group dinner. The food was not as good as I had anticipated after reading other reviews - the pork chop was a bit dry - but overall ok.
Break Fast is Amazing. The Lion house Pantry just started serving breakfast. If you thought that there lunch and dinner was great you will love there breakfast. They do not disappoint, they have this Amazing french toast with this caramel sauce that is baked on top and I got a serving of french toast eggs and sausage and a drink all for about 6 bucks. So going there again.
Food was Really Good and great value too. On top of that all staff was so helpful and nice! The cafeteria style serving was very efficient, can't wait to come back for More.
Home Cooking. The food was the best of it's type I have had. Cafateria style is not my favorite, but theirs was very good and the bread always gets the nod.
We stopped here since we had the salt lake city pass. We were so happy we had the opportunity to eat here as it was a beautiful house to enjoy a meal in the city. They validated parking for 3 hours. Food was fantastic and we left the place feeling full. A must stop and if you don't want to eat grab dessert. You will not be disappointed. Friendly Staff
The Lion House Pantry was delicious. It's located in a historic Brigham Young house in Temple Square and has a unique ambiance. We had the corned beef, chicken noodle soup, and the rolls. My only regret is that we didn't get more rolls. I would definitely recommend stopping in.
As far as cafeteria style food goes, this is best-in-class. I come here whenever I'm visiting City Creek Center. It's not too expensive, and you get a good serving of home-style cooking that has never had me leave regretting that I ate there. In my experience its never too crowded either, it has a nice hole-in-the-wall feel to it.
Beautiful historic venue and pantry. I've been to a couple of lunches and receptions for weddings here and it's been great every time. I love the hisotric feel of the building and the classic look of the furniture, lighting, and decor. It's also close to City Creek and the temple so it's in the middle of everything.
Simply the most amazing rolls i've ever tasted. Both the orange cinnamon and the Signature Lion House Rolls are worth the journey into Temple Square. What the place lacks in ambiance is well compensated for with it's history and friendly employees. (Note to first time Utah visitors: soft drinks only...duh.)
5 Stars. Highly recommended! Richferguson143 with Siobhan O'Connor
This was fun for my daughter and her birthday party with all of her friends it is really easy for the parents because we can offload all the hassle of the party to the lion house. Our party leader was great and had a lot of fun with the girls. I wish they would offer a little bit more for dinner but then again I was one of the two parents there what was offered was just fine for the little kids.
Nice place! The renovated house of Brigham Young, this place serves as a restaurant on temple square. The entrees all came with two sides and a Lionhouse roll (the rolls were great!). The soups had nice cafeteria feel about them, and fellow visitors found the meat options (aside from Salmon) had more than necessary fat. For the most part, with home cooked potatoes and chicken noodle soup, I would say the food was pretty good, and the soups were worth the price. The setting was the real charm of the place. :)
Good quality and taste, however a bit pricey for the portion size.
Love the warm dinner rolls with sweet butter! Anything you order is a delight. Portions are very plentiful; always make space for soup!
Great food, great service, great atmosphere!
