Another great visit, a little price surging for grad night, but still ok overall. Food was great for a party of 7. Everyone left happy.

Agree with Brook B. (01 Sep 2025 review) that the food is mid. Texas Roadhouse steak is better, for example. But can't complain about the price - good value (amount of food for the price). I really liked the salad bar, which had jello salad. Service was fast and friendly. Ambiance - has an "Old West" feel, feels homey and comfortable. Floor is carpeted, which is impressive. read more

Overall, we thoroughly enjoyed our first dinner at melts stage shop. We had the New York steak with a baked potato, and it was cooked perfectly and very well seasoned. Highly recommend the loaded baked potato. The shrimp cocktail was good, however, not sure it should be $20. I would say it would be better around $15. That said the shrimp was fresh and the cocktail sauce was very good. The salad bar was great and had a ton of options and the rolls are fresh baked, which are really, really good. We also splurged and had the chocolate lava cake which was fantastic. Absolutely light and airy and served with fresh ice cream. On top of everything the service was great, and everyone was extremely friendly. You could see the owner peeing down from the top of the stairs, making sure everyone was taken care of and also helping out. Full bar service as well. Definitely will be back! read more

Everything about this place is great. Its nestled in a canyon with amazing views and a beautiful outdoors feeling. We are from Vegas and the steaks we had were easily some of the best we have ever had. All of the food was exceptional; in particular the artichoke hearts in butter were amazing. And the service was speedy, informative and characterful; our server Emily was super. Thoroughly recommend. read more

Food was off the mark. No filets, ended up with rib eye. Not cooked over flame grill, instead on a griddle or pan. Like Dennys, but lot more expensive. read more

This place was great. The staff took good care of us and the my 7 and 5 year old boys and let them pick their ice cream. read more

Milt's is part of western Americana! Great steaks and complete salad bar. Could not ask for a better experience for dinner! I love the prime rib! read more

Great high end prime rib. Loved the rolls and service. I come all the way up from St George when I need a great meal.

Service was great, but the steaks were NOT up to par. You'll get better shrimp scampi from a lean cuisine. I'm a foodie from CA, so I guess my standard might be different and biased. I must say, all the food I've eaten in Utah (St. George, Bryce, Cedar City, Zion) have all been mid lol. If you wanna know what you're getting, it's just an old musty steak house with flavorless food. Appreciated the salad bar and a glass of Pinot! Won't go back if I'm ever in the area again. read more

Decided to go to Milts because where we're staying they recommended it and also yelp did. It's a very old building and very rustic inside. But it's a very comfortable feeling. I had Philly mignon and buffalo chips, that are slices of fried baked potato and they were terrific. My husband had prime rib, rare and rice. We got Bread and one of the best salad bars I've ever been to. They had your normal stuff, but then they also had beets, cucumbers, peas, broccoli was very good. I also ordered an old-fashioned, but it was not right, tasted like bourbon and water. So I sent it back and got a gin and tonic that was perfect so of course I had to have another one. Two full for dessert. Our server was.Aubriella and she was help read more

Love the Salad bar!! So much variety to choose from! Salad bar comes with the entree's. The steak/lobster, king crab, shrimp cocktail, artichoke and all the sides were delicious. Hot rolls, amazing. Service was really good, food came out fast. The ambiance, fun, like a cabin with dead animals on the wall. I had no idea this place was up the canyon. The first night I went I ordered way too much food. I came back the very next night and just got the salad bar. It was super good! read more

Again, This place is amazing. Both of us had the Prime Rib. Arrived 10 minutes before opening and did not have to wait. Server was prompt and very nice. Ordered right away and our food was out in 5-6 minutes. Prime Rib was tasty and cooked to perfection. Horseradish sauce was potent and delicious. Love the backyard scene. Salad bar is also excellent. read more

Great food and service!! It was a busy valentine's night, and they were attentive and the food was fabulous!

Haven't eaten at Milt's in years. Prefer Rusty's Ranch House a couple of miles west on the same road. Same quality as Milt's for a lower price. read more

A local legend in the Cedar City area, this is a small family owned and operated steak house right out of the pages of history. The look, the feel and the atmosphere of this place reminds you of the simpler times gone by. It's not the latest trends that brings you here but good old fashioned service, great food and a relaxed and friendly vibe that keeps people from coming back. In the back of the restaurant they have several hummingbird feeders so you get dinner and a show for one low price! They use locally grown meats which bring a really rich and organic flavor to the steaks themselves. I ordered the Ribeye and it was magnificent! Cooked properly, lightly seasoned, it was as good as any steak you'll get in the top end steak houses around the country for half the cost. They are having issues with their crab legs currently as everyone is. In this particular night the King Crab legs had clearly been refrozen after being allowed to thaw which caused the crab meat to be spongy and flavorless. I'm not blaming the folks at Milt's. It could have been anyone in the supply chain that did this. But, the cooks and server should have noticed how scrawny and bruised the meat looked. Speaking of servers... Robyn did a great job of serving us. She was professional, friendly, genuine and efficient. When we told her about the King Crab she immediately called over the owner who removed the crab from the bill as well as from the table. The salad bar, which seems to receive an abnormal amount of hate from other reviewers was perfectly adequate. It has a nice selection of things too to your salad with as well as several side salads like potato and three bean. I honestly don't know what others were expecting, I thought it was very well done and has everything one would want for a salad, which is included in the price of the meal as well! The only area that I would recommend some change would be the dessert menu. It's fairly standard. Nothing extraordinary about it. I would recommend a salted caramel item or something House made. You really could use a signature item to finish things off. Especially considering the number of local items you feature, you really should have a signature finish! read more

Overrated. Our ribeye was under seasoned and lacked flavor. Just stay home and cook your own. Pass on the buffalo chips as a side. The free rolls are flavorless also. The best part was watching the hummingbirds on the feeders through the windows. They were gracious enough to have the chef split Our meals onto separate plates. And odd that when they bring the checks, they provide one mint....like we are supposed to share it between six people. read more

A little disappointed.. haven't been to Milts in a few years due to a little disappointment last time but thought maybe it was just an off night. My parents wanted to take me for my birthday. We had reservations and were seated quickly. We all ordered ribeyes. The salad bar was excellent and fresh. Service was fast but the meal was a little disappointing. The steaks were small and had little flavor. Not very tender and had a lot of gristle. The sweet potato was 1/4 potato and white .. and not very sweet and undercooked. At 42 dollars a steak , we kind of expected it to be better. The roles were good. I've always loved to ambience here but we were seated next to the salad bar , next to a very large loud group of people so we could not even have conversation or enjoy the hummingbirds. I'm not one to ever do bad reviews but I really don't think I would come back when you can get a decent steak for a lot less many other places.. especially because this is the second time we have had an ok, overpriced meal. read more

Local steakhouse in the mountains. One of if not the best salad a bar ever! Decor Is on point with elk and deer. Tons of hummingbirds food was great drinks were meh small and not strong. Service was great. Over all solid 4.5-5 JMO. Streak was a little under seasoned but still very good. $$$ price was fine and will definitely be back. read more

My wife and I loved this place. It's old school. Nothing special and definitely a different vibe but the food was outstanding. My wife had the salmon and I got after the prime rib and shrimp. (Perfect medium rare, horseradish was on point but the au jus, which is not my favorite usually was the best I've ever had.) The mush-zuch appetizer was worth it as well. Staff was incredibly nice and everyone in the restaurant felt like family. Cool place if you're not bougie! read more

If you're concerned about COVID-19, I would recommend you find somewhere else to eat. I was a bit surprised at the lack of COVID precautions. My family and I were the only ones wearing masks. Overall, the food at Milt's was good. We got fried zucchini as an appetizer. I've normally seen it in spears but the slices were actually quite nice. I would've preferred ranch over the cheese sauce, but it was still good. The rack of lamb was the best thing I tried from all of our meals. Prime rib was good as well, but it wasn't as tender as I'd hoped. I did really enjoy the bison chips though. They were seasoned quite well. We were just passing through town on a road trip, and it was a pretty nice meal for the occasion. read more

This restaurant will always have a special place in my heart. Many years ago my husband Scott proposed marriage to me here on a very romantic and snow covered evening in December. We have not been back in years but decided to come back this month since our wedding anniversary is in September. Due to COVID, we made a reservation for 5:00pm and were the first party through the door. They were kind enough to sit us near the fireplace where all the action had taken place. The interior reminds me of an old fashioned western saloon and this restaurant opened in 1956. Lots of western decor, pics of various parks in Utah and lots of stuffed deer heads hanging up (hunting is not my thing). Anyway you get the picture. We decided on filets and I added some jumbo scampi shrimp to my dish. Our server Aubrielle was the sweetest. She was helpful, had a great personality and we enjoyed her service. Our steaks were cooked to perfection and the meal was delicious just how I remember it. We ended the meal with the chocolate lava cake with ice cream. So, so rich and tasty! My only reason for the 4 vs. 5 star was because no one was wearing a mask. I was quite concerned that not even the servers or hostess had one on. We kept our masks on till we ate and the restaurant was still pretty empty. About 15 minutes before we left, large parties were arriving, the restaurant was not demonstrating social distancing with tables so we exited quickly. It was fun to go back and visit but nothing will ever compare to our engagement night. We still had a great meal and a great time reminiscing. Thanks Milt's for still being around after all these years. read more

Great food! Friendly, attentive staff. Casual atmosphere. I love the Prime Rib -- excellent-- and the salad bar is always good. We've never had a bad meal at Milts! read more

Food was great. Nice place with a wide selection of great dishes. Something for everyone. Go early to avoid crowds

We love Milt's. The staff is fantastic, attentive and friendly. I had just had shoulder surgery and was in a sling. The server asked if she could have the chef cut my steak for me. And they cut it into perfect bite sized pieces. The food is wonderful. We have lived here for 8 years and they have never brought us anything we didn't love. Thank you read more

Stopped by when they opened at 5PM. The parking lot looked so busy but we were seated right away!! It's a cute steak house a few minutes up from Cedar city headed up I-40. We ordered the artichoke hearts and shared a ribeye (comes with a salad bar and sweet potato with cinnamon) and the cooks were sweet enough to split our plates for us. The artichoke hearts were tasty if you love it drenched in butter (I know I do) and the ribeye was delicious. Honestly it exceeded our expectation after the crappy food we had in Duck Creek Village lol read more

Having eaten at Ruth's Chris in Salt Lake City the night before we arrived in Cedar city, I was still in the mood for another fillet.

We came here as our last dinner in Southern Utah and it did not disappoint. We definitely order much more than we should've but it was all worth it. Both me and my wife got Prime Rib, a jack/coke and their complementary salad. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasty. The wait staff were all super friendly and welcoming as well. We will definitely be back sooner than later. read more

It's our "to go" spot every summer when we attend the Utah Shakespeare Festival; the salad bar is fresh and has all the main ingredients and the main course, be it coconut shrimp, grilled salmon or steak ribs is so good too! Make sure to also try their house made apple pie! It's delicious; the atmosphere and service is so friendly. Until next summer :) read more

seriously... nothing less than 5 star. Robin , the Chef, and for sure the head man, Daniel were all excellent. The salad bar alone set the stage for the salmon and filet mignon I had, was perfect.

Great place and service. I was a little disappointed that they ran out of prime rib, which I ordered a ribeye steak instead. My ribeye was cooked perfectly to medium rare and also had a nice seared crust on the outside. Salad bar was excellent with many choices. Had the creme brûlée for dessert which was also good. Robyn was out waitress and she did an excellent job. The main menu and desert menus on wooden cutting boards which I found cool. I love steakhouses that have that timber lodge/log cabin look to them. It is a little on the pricey side, but hey, it's a steakhouse and it's worth it. Will definitely go back the next time I'm in town. read more

Nice place reasonably priced. My husband had the filet mignon and shrimp. It was delicious and cooked perfectly. I usually prefer rib eye so I had the rib eye but my husband's filet mignon was tastier than my rib eye. My rib eye was good but his filet mignon was better . So I recommend the filet mignon over the rib eye. read more

I love Milt's. My family has been coming here since the 70's. When I attended SUU I always looked forward to a visit from the parents because it meant a trip to Milt's! (On their dime of course because I was a poor college student). These days, being hours away from Cedar City, it's a little more difficult to get to Milt's, but I still manage about once a year. It's a great addition to a Shakespeare Festival trip, or the perfect way to end a camping trip up the canyon. Some highlights are the prime rib, the filet, the artichokes, and the pumpernickel bread! If they would only start carrying ginger beer so I could enjoy a Moscow Mule, it would be utter perfection! But it really is worth it, with or without the nostalgia read more

Great food, service and ambiance! Try the Salmon! It was wonderful! And I'm very picky about my salmon. Dad was a salmon fisherman and I've only had it fresh--the best! Milt's Salmon tasted fresh! read more

The food is wonderful and the staff truly cares about making everything just right. They were SO pleasant. They have a salad bar!

What a great gem of a steak house! It reminded me of the times when food wasn't always trying to be so snobby. This was comfort food at its best, and very nostalgic for me. I had the jumbo shrimp and it was great, i appreciated the salad bar-and the rolls and butter and potato, all included with the meal. Husband had the ribeye which was fantastic. I'm so happy to find a place that doesn't cover everything in truffle oil and Himalayan salt. Unpretentious, terrific food, friendly help, and comforting. Thank you, Milt, we will be back as soon as we return to Cedar City. read more

Fantastic dinner. We were created at the door by a genuine smile! This made us feel Comfortable and welcomed! They have a traditional salad bar complete with chilled salad plates. Everything was fresh and delicious! Becky, our waitress, was personable and very attentive! Cassidy was training on opening and serving the wine, the owner was nearby to help her if needed, but she did a great job! I had the sirloin and my husband had the ribeye. Both were fantastic! Cooked to perfection! The owner, Dan?, was attentive and each customer was treated as if they were VIPs! We were undecided on dessert and chose the white chocolate raspberry cheese cake which was AMAZING! I'm so glad we found this gem! We would go back on a heartbeat when we visit Cedar City again! Added bonus-there's no cell service, so no interruptions! read more

To start, their parking stinks! They don't have nearly enough parking spaces in the back parking lot and the front park lot is awful to get in and out of because it is literally right off the highway with a speed limit of 50 mph. We had to park in the mud on the side of the highway! Our group of four had a reservation for 6pm. We weren't seated until 6:30. The salad bar is lacking in options and dressings. The carrots and onions were so large, they definitely didn't work in the salad. Had to use the steak knife to cut them We didn't bother with an appetizer... The cheapest on is $10 and from the looks of another tables apps, they were worth it! The prime rib was under seasoned and had way too much fat. Yes, I understand it's supposed to be fatty. However, you generally have more meat than fat... Not in this case! Two of us got the prime rib, medium rare and one came out right. However, the other was medium well. Two of us ordered the new york, medium rare. Both came out well and not seasoned. They had to be dipped in the au jus. If you get the sweet potato as a side, be aware that it's only 1/4 of the potato and they put cinnamon on it. Oh, and it's a white, sweet potato. For being an "up-scale" restaurant, their hostesses and servers weren't very good at taking care of their guests. And clearly the cooks don't know how to cook meat and shouldn't be allowed near the grill!!! Either that or the servers are either dumb or don't care what their customers order and just tell the cook to make it how ever they feel. Overall, I was not impressed! The food is overpriced. I'd recommend Texas Roadhouse over Milt's! I will not return! read more
