The salsa tasted so fresh and good - and I don't even like tomatoes. Nice choices of tequilas and margaritas. Drinks were reasonably priced as well. I had the pulled pork and sope which came with refried beans and rice. The pulled pork was a bit cool. Husband had the chicken mole which had a bit of spice to it. He was impressed with the amount of chicken given. Second night, the food all came temperature-wise hot and was hearty, good, and filling. The bar has saddle bar seats and the restaurant has a nicely done Mexican atmosphere.

Staying in Bicknell after visiting Capitol Reef National park and needed a place to eat dinner…read more This place had lots of positive reviews so this was our choice. Wow! Reviews didn't lie! It's located in Torrey- you can spot the gravel parking lot with lots of cars in front. In fact we actually didn't see the restaurant because there were 2 rows of cars parked in front-a good sign! The menu was varied- from pizza ( more about that later), steak, salads, sandwiches, trout, mexican food. Good selection of alcoholic drinks, beer and soft drinks and even ice cream floats. The meals came with a choice of salad or soup and choice of baked or mashed potato, fries or vegetables. I ordered the steak sandwich which was strips of steak with grilled vegetables -onions and peppers, cheese and a spread of guacamole. It was served on crusty ciabatta bread. I asked for no added salt on the steak and they graciously accommodated me. It was nicely seasoned and didn't need the extra salt. The meat was nice and tender. Hubby ordered the starter dish taco (2) and it had a large piece of battered fried fish. It was crispy and moist. It could be an entree! I saw other diners order the burger and it was thick and large. Another party ordered the large pizza- let me tell you it was huge-almost big as a lazy susan. It could easily feed four or more. And the price was so reasonable- $23 for the premium pizza and $22 for the others. Looking around, all the meals that came out were generously portioned. No wonder the place was full! In spite of the steady flow of customers, the staff was very friendly and helpful and came by to refill waters. We didn't have to wait too long for the food in spite of the busyness. For those wanting a good meal after a day in the park, come here!

Rock Reef Cafe is another simple dining option in Torrey, and honestly, in a town with limited…read moredinner choices, it works well enough after a long day exploring Capitol Reef National Park. The atmosphere is casual, family-friendly, and relaxed. They have both indoor seating and a large outdoor area, which is nice in the evenings when the weather cools down a bit. The service was interesting because it felt very inconsistent depending on who was helping us. The male staff members were attentive, friendly, conversational, and checked on us regularly to make sure we had everything we needed. The female servers, on the other hand, seemed distracted and less engaged overall. More than once, we noticed they brought the check without asking whether we wanted dessert or needed anything else. It did not feel rude exactly, just uneven in terms of attentiveness. One thing I really enjoyed was the whiskey sour, which came complete with a little umbrella. I had not had a drink with a tiny umbrella in forever, and honestly it added an unexpected level of vacation happiness to the evening. Sometimes small details carry the mood. The house salad was actually very good, especially because they were generous with the avocado, which immediately earns points in my world. We also had the trout with mashed potatoes. The trout was decent, though a little dry, but still enjoyable enough after a long day outdoors. We noticed a lot of people ordering pizza, so that may actually be one of their stronger menu items, though we decided to skip it this time. Overall, Rock Reef Cafe is a solid, casual option in Torrey. The food was decent, the drinks were fun, the atmosphere was comfortable, and while the service could be more consistent, it was still a pleasant enough experience overall.

Just found my new taco spot far away from home…read more Since I've been trucking for almost a week now, I've had the chance to try new food spots on the road -- mostly takeout, no sit-down -- and this place genuinely surprised me. The food was hot, fresh, and way better than expected. If I'm being honest, it was kind of a shocker. It's almost sad to say, but this was better than a lot of what I've had on my recent occasions in San Antonio. I stopped in quickly since we had to get back on the road, and from ordering to food in hand it took no more than 5-7 minutes. I ordered three mini tacos at $3 each, which is a solid price for Utah. I went with one carne asada, one lengua, and one adobada, all topped with cilantro and onion, served on fresh corn tortillas. The tortillas were soft, warm, and clearly made fresh. For salsas, I had two salsa verdes and one salsa roja. The salsa verde was classic and mild -- very fresh and flavorful, though I personally prefer it a bit spicier. The salsa roja delivered exactly what I was looking for with good heat and great flavor. I almost ordered tacos suaves, but I was really craving the mini tacos and I'm glad I went with them. Next time, I'll definitely try the tacos suaves. Everything tasted freshly made and not rushed, which made the experience even better. The restaurant is located inside the Flying J off Interstate 15 (Exit 112), and I was also impressed with how clean the Flying J itself was. Great service as well -- the guy at the counter was friendly and welcoming. This stop turned into a great meal and a new memory in the small town of Beaver, Utah. I'll definitely be back if my routes bring me through again. Highly recommend stopping by Beaver Taco if you're passing through.

But it seems speed is an issue with this place. Other than service time, food was not bad, I liked the free salsa and chips and all drinks come with one free refill! Yes you read correctly! ALL DRINKS COME WITH FREE REFILL! Legit! Horchata was about too sweet and more creamy; is horchata creamy? Well this one is not watered down for sure. And if it's got too much ice it's ok; there's a free refill!! Also good were the fajitas, the chile relano (sp?), the the camerones, beans, and rice. All the food was legit. Tho when expected a regular tamale, they drenched it in cheese. I say come and give it a try. Just don't expect fast food here. One of my party members think it's a bit salty. I just thot everything tasted yummy. Almost higher than a B+
