Food 9.5/10- this restaurant provides a unique dining experience of sharing the dishes that you order with your group. Each dish we ordered was delicious and had fresh flavors. Potatoes were a tad salty. Trout was delicious, light and juicy. Salads were fresh and light. Desserts were both delicious. Definitely not disappointed by the food Atmosphere: 10/10- very cohesive theme and decor throughout the restaurant. Classy and minimalist. Everything felt thoughtful. Seating was separated (from the reviews previous it sounds like they changed it from two large tables to separate seating for parties) Service: 9/10 very accommodating, despite us not have a reservation, they were able to squeeze us in. Server was polite and attentive.

Decided to go for an early Valentines dinner in Utah County as we have had some success with places such as Black Sheep. We choose Communal right in the middle of downtown based on previous reviews. For so many reasons, this might be our new go to for “special date night.” 1)The food was perfect and unique. The complimentary bread needs special mention, they say it’s not quite sourdough but whatever it is, it was amazing. We choose the persimmons (which I though was weird but my wife said was amazing), funeral potatoes and the sweet potato as sides. If you like cheese and hash browns, the funeral potatoes are heaven, holy frijoles. Our server recommend the pork loins. Not only were the huge but cooked to perfection. They were served on a bed of creamy mashed potatoes which was probably the only big miss, they lacked any real flavor which I guess was meant to be. 2)The service was juuuuuust right. Good service, now more than ever, is hard to find. Our server (I forgot her name, sorry!

“Communal” is a good way to describe the atmosphere here. The tables are closer together than the average restaurant, but the food makes up for it! My wife and I had the pork tenderloin with mustard seeds, greens, and funeral potatoes. I didn’t even give the pork a chance to melt in my mouth, but my wife will attest that it does! Delicious. I’d recommend not letting your eyes be bigger than your stomach here, a full course meal for two means you’ll both be walking out with a take-out box after dinner.
