This place is awesome and one of the best escape room activities in the state. Alcatraz is actually one of the many things you can do here. It's connected to another place called Airoborne which is a trampoline park with ultimate dodge ball, wipeout, ninja warrior, trapees, foam pits, food -- the works. They also have BattleBall which is a full arena where you break up in teams and where full armor and shoot the enemey team with soft rubber (or foam) balls. Really fun place.

We love the Aquarium! It's mostly a water creature zoo with animals from kelp forests, coral reefs, the deep ocean, Antarctic waters, Asian cloud forests, South American rain forests, and the waterways of our home state of Utah. They have over 4,000 animals. The facility is world-class. An interesting tidbit, they just recently installed "the claw" which is a massived metal claw looking object which was actually the previous structure used by the band U2 during their 360° tour. It is billed as the largest stage ever constructed. It's 165 ft tall and you can't miss it. Great place to go spend a few hours of exploring.

For kids, they have the museum of natural curiosity which is a huge hit. They have the world's largest man-made waterfall in their gardens. Our favs are: Their Christmas light show Luminaria--which is pretty much the coolest Christmas light display you'll ever see, Tulip Festival (April-May), Firework Shows July (4th/24th), Corbelly's corn maze and pumpkin fest (End of Sep - Oct).. You can't go wrong when coming here.

Great place for food -- An even better place for the overall vibe. They have a restaurant and a bar. So if you're wanting to go to a swanky place and have a drink and watch the game (or listen to live music on the weekend) you can do that or if you're wanting to get dressed up and take the S/O out to a fancy restaurant this place is perfect. You're right on the hill top of Draper so you have perfect views of the sunset in their outdoor dining area. Their food (how they describe it) is: The Cliff Dining Pub specializes in interpreting the American cookbook for a new generation—sushi from Los Angeles, pastas from our urban cores, sandwiches as diverse as our homes, and steak from the Heartland. Our bar features hand-crafted classics and the best of the new mixology. -- One of our favorite places to go!

This is our favorite Sushi place in all of Utah. The location and establishment aren't necessarily 5 stars but the Sushi is EXCELLENT. My Sushi recommendations are: Mars Roll, J Roll, Godzilla, and Romeo and Juliet. If you want fancy and fresh then Tekashi in Salt Lake City would be my next recommendation or closer Tsunami.
