Perhaps what Provo felt like years ago, Froggie’s is about as close to a beach shack as you can come these days.

A casual dinner vibe, generally with more lively energy than you will find at other restaurants, plus sunset views from their pier-like patio seating.

For those who have booked a sit down dinner, you will still get to enjoy the tunes in the background.

Perched in an enviable position over Chalk Sound, the views from Las Brisas always impress. Go for dinner at sunset to enjoy the colors and relaxing music several nights of the week.
