A word from Communal
Nestled in Historic Downtown Provo we have built the perfect home for Communal. Design by Benfell & Furr yielded a space that is both comfortable and modern. Clean lines and smart design set the stage for what could be the best meal you have ever had. Our private dining room is equipped with A/V
…
equipment and is the perfect place for meetings or larger gatherings (up to 12). Communal easily handles large reservations of up to 20 and is ideal for special events seating as many as 40. The bar looks into the open kitchen and the seats there get you as close to the action as possible. Reservations are accepted and recommended. The menu, a la carte, gives you the opportunity to feel all the love that our local farmers & producers have for their products.

Although Communal is one of the few restaurants in the Provo-Orem area that really tries to deliver a unique dining experience for foodies, it just doesn't succeed.

Whenever I get a chance to have lunch without my kids I suggest Communal. The food is fresh, unique and delicious. The menu changes with the seasons and never disappoints. The service is always friendly and the atmosphere always pleasant. I love that the produce is from a local farm and the owners are were born and raised here.

Communal's brunch always rises to the occasion and is comparable in quality to their outstanding lunch and dinner menus. The biscuits are crispy yet not too try, the French toast is made with superb brioche, and the baked egg with tomatoes and sausage will have to craving the dish days later.

Astonishingly good food in a comfortable, unpretentious atmosphere--easily the best anywhere in the valley outside of Salt Lake. Service is friendly and competent without being overly familiar. This restaurant could hold its own in any big city.
Two minor complaints--the bread is nowhere near as good as the rest of the food, and, since it comes to the table first, is an unfortunate introduction to what will be a wonderful meal; second, the vegetables were room temperature rather than warm, a curious phenomenon since the food is essentially prepared as you order it.

COmmunal was a great experience, the service was excellent and the atmosphere was fun. I happened to be looking for a romantic place to go with my girlfriend; Communal does not cater to that need. But most of the food was great. The appetizer was wonderful. The brussel-sprouts with hazelnuts were an inspiration. Unfortunately...the side dishes were a little greasy, and although the flavor was good the extra oil was noticeable.
Great Service, not necessarily romantic, but pretty good food (really good as soon as they get the extra oil out of the recipies).

Communal has great food--that is why I go there. The have made a business decision, though, to play loud music and make the place more energetic. I spoke with the owner about how I wanted to have a conversation with my wife across the table and we could not hear each other. I asked 2 different waiters to turn it down. One did and the music was low for about 5 min. The other waiter, who was our server, was very resistant to my requests and after that our service went downhill--because I had complained about the music. I spoke with the owner in a seemingly amiable conversation, but he made it clear that the music was there to stay. Why eat gourmet food to "Roxanne", "Under Pressure" and "The Man in the Mirror"? Listen to 103.5 FM on the way!
