I won't be going back... – You would think by going at 3:30 on a Friday afternoon there would be parking somewhere other than in the (overpriced) cave. I drove for 15 minutes to park for 3 disappointing minutes in Dick's Sporting Goods. I should have followed my instinct and drove the distance SOMEWHERE else other than Gateway. The disappointing selection at high prices at Dick's sealed the deal. I won't be going back.

Shame on the Gateway - Over priced, over-glamed, – Over priced, over-glamed, over promoted. It seems as if it was pitched as a link between the western part of SLC and its downtown - but serves a barrier to anyone from the west side of SLC. It is pretty to look at, but that is about all. It must claim it's "instrumental role in nailing in the last nail into the coffin of Salt Lake's Main Street business area".

We froze – We tried shopping here once. It was winter and we absolutely froze. Parking is inconvenient. We parked at one end of the place, walked a ways and then, since it was so cold, we had to run from store to store -- warming up in each store -- in order to try to make it back to our car. Whoever thought an open air mall made sense in northern Utah? It makes sense in Hawaii, but not in Salt Lake. There is nothing in any store there that would induce me to return.

Pathetic cheap outdoor mall – Parking is terrible: enter into the abyss by driving into a maze that looks to be designed by architects that were smoking something. Absolutely impossible to figure out where you are vs where you want to be, which wouldn't be so bad if the mall was a vertical one, but this sucka is two loooong city blocks, so if you choose poorly, you'll be walking grandman and the kids half a mile to shop. Be sure to get a clue as to where you parked because you'll NEVER find your car again unless you take pai... read more

Love it! – How can you not love the Gateway? It is the best shopping place in SLC! I love going there and hitting all the stores, seeing a movie, and then getting some food. I am so excited for the holidays to come and have everything be decorated and festive!!

Mean parking policies – Don't park at the Gateway to go to events held at the Energy Solutions Area. We parked and ate at The Gateway before going to the Harlem Globetrotters on Feb. 11th and got parking validations to lessen the expense. When we tried to leave the Winter parking garage we were told that the exit closest to us was not open for exit unless we paid the attendant $5.00. If we wanted to use our parking validations we were told that we had to go to another exit where there was a 45 minute wait. It felt like a sca... read more

Bad parking policies – We've enjoyed shopping and dining at the Gateway, but it is certainly not a "unique" experience. The only unique part of the mall is the Discovery Gateway, which is a good children's museum, and the Planetarium. But the parking is terrible. The parking garages are not set up well and if you don't get a validation it is expensive. You really should not plan on going to the museum and then a movie unless you want to shell out for parking. A validation from the museum and from the movie theater are not ac... read more
