I ordered the Honey Seared Chicken.  The meal was good but I did notice one thing, at about halfway through my meal I was not enjoying it as much as when I started it.  The honey syrup was too strong and there was too much of it.  I had to put my fork down and take a break before I could go back to eating.  Most of my friends had the same complaint with there meals, too much syrup used as flavor.
All in all the meal was good, the price wasn't terrible and the service was great.  I give this restaurant my recommendation, if you are looking for PF Chang's on a budget.

We were promptly greeted at the front of the restaurant and were seated at a table.  It wasn't incredibly busy so they sat the two of us at a large booth, a nice touch considering many other restaurants would sit you at a small table even when it was not busy.  Our waitress came over and got our drink orders and told us she would give us a few minutes to look over the menu.  She was very friendly and polite.
For an appetizer I ordered the Pot Stickers, I have had them before on a previous trip to Iggy's and loved them so much that time that it was partially the reason I chose this restaurant this night.  For my main course I ordered the Steak & Shrimp Dinner, a "baseball steak" wrapped in bacon and coconut shrimp.  
My appetizer arrived and I must say that I was disappointed, the pot stickers were average and the only hope I still have for them is that they were only bad this time and the next time I go they will be great again.
My meal arrived not too long after finishing my appetizer, the steak was mediocre, nothing special to report.  I might blame the cut of meat considering I am not sure what part of the cow the "baseball steak" comes from.  The coconut shrimp was amazing, best I have had in Utah.  The only problem with the shrimp is that there was not enough of it, next time I am going to just order the coconut shrimp dinner and skip the steak.  The shrimp was deep fried in a coconut batter and was not as greasy as one would normally expect a deep fried dish, the coconut flavor was not too strong and did not overpower the shrimp taste.  The sides were not very good in my opinion, the vegetables were over-steamed for my liking and the mashed potatoes did not seem as fresh as I would expect from any place that isn't fast food.
Overall my meal was alright, the service was wonderful and the experience was nice.  Would I recommend Iggy's?  If you are a sports fan or a big fan of coconut shrimp you should check it out, but if you are looking for a great meal you could find better food elsewhere.  Will I return?  I might, but it will likely be out of convenience and not craving.

This BBQ beats all challengers.  I have been to a few BBQ joints in Salt Lake County and this is by far the best.  I usually get the Brisket and Ribs and it is to die for.  I still have not had the chance to try the Burnt Ends but I hear great things.  I also can't say enough about the cheese cake, you have to try it!  

The atmosphere is nice and the servers are pretty good.  Clear time for a longer lunch because this isn't the type of place you want to rush through, take you time and enjoy it.  I am not the biggest fan of the live bands, they are ok but a little loud if you want to talk with the people you go to lunch with, maybe if the room was bigger it wouldn't feel so loud.  I recommend to anybody that likes meat.

I only go to Virg's for the Fish and Chips (or chicken strips) so my review is based solely on that food option.

If you are looking for good Fish and Chips or even chicken, this is the place to go.  I have been with a few people that if even spent time over in the UK and they agree that this is the only place that comes close.  The food is greasy and it sits heavy but that is what you expect from Fish and Chips.  You have a few side options if you get the meal, (english chips, fries, onion rings, or salad) and all are a good choice but the english chips are the way to go.

Service is OK, I actually liked it better when it was on State Street and they didn't really use waiters.  Honestly though when you go in you are not expected the best service possible, I actually think that adds to the atmosphere for me and they have never done anything that actually upset me.  Most of the time it is not too long of a wait and the food is reasonably priced.  I recommend this restaurant to any fish and chips fans out there.

I first started eating Thai food about a year ago.  I have tried a few places but this place is head and shoulders above the competition.  I usually order the Gang Massaman with Chicken, spice level two (on a scale of 1-5, 1 being the least spicy and 5 being the spiciest).  I was hooked after the first trip here.  The food is hot and spicy, flavorful, and generally leaves you with a full satisfied feeling when you leave.  The Peanut Dressing on the salad is the best I have tried in Utah.

The atmosphere is great and the servers are nice and usually very attentive about drink refills and extra rice (which is needed due to the spice).  I try to get out here at least once a week and I recommend Chanon Thai Cafe to all my friends.
