My husband and I came here for an anniversary dinner (I got the pork chops, he got lamb, mine was better) and then came back the next day for lunch because the food was all SO GOOD. The Green Goddess salad rocked my world. This place has a beautiful, romantic ambiance. Our waiters were both so great. One of our best foodie outings. We can't wait to come back and try more. read more

Had an awesome lunch here when visiting St George. It's a Husband and wife owned restaurant since 2004, offering seasonal cuisine, "casual fine dining." It's located in the historic downtown but tucked away in Ancestor Square (also tucked in that area and not to be missed is FeelLove Coffee). It was relatively quiet during the weekday lunch hour, but the reservations were fully booked for dinner that week. Prices were very reasonable, coming from California. We ordered two customized versions of the following, one with included side salad and one with included fries (both delish): Smoked Turkey Club - $12.00 bacon, avocado, lettuce, tomato, dark wheat roll *I got the Turkey club, hold the Turkey (lol), on toasted rye. So basically it was a BLTA and I loved it! *He got Turkey, bacon, avocado, tomato on a roll and also loved it. Service was friendly and attentive. And we really liked how the interior had a sense of place, matching the colors and textures of the natural beauty in St George. We look forward to returning for dinner when we're next in town. read more

This place is the best! We have been here many times and I would rate it nothing but a 5/5. The service is incredible, but Kyle is the best of the best!! read more

This place was a gem! My husband and I came here on our second night in town, after being less-than-wowed with our hotel restaurant, wood. ash. rye. It was a little tricky to find.. you have to go in a building with multiple other businesses and it's on the second floor. Walking in with no reservations, we were greeted warmly and seated promptly (on a Thursday at 8pm). The vibe is moody lighting and romantic decor. I loved that they were playing jazz standards and the volume was just right. Now that we're 40, we're starting to appreciate a slightly quieter sound level when we go out. We were pretty hungry and exhausted, having just returned from a full day of hiking Zion. We started with a cocktail each: the campfire old-fashioned and a gin drink for me with triple sec and lemon (can't recall the name). Both were well-balanced and quite perfect for what we like. We munched on some complimentary bread and olive oil while we looked over the menu. We shared the green goddess salad and this dish restored my joy of eating out. Where once, restaurants were a place to gain inspiration for home-cooking, I feel the creativity and quality has diminished since the pandemic. But not with this dish! I loved the freshness and the surprising combo of adding potatoes and eggs and a seed crisp. The dressing was incredible! For the entrees, we had two selections that were new for autumn: duck ravioli and the airline chicken. I'd like to know which airline ever made a bone-in chicken thigh, let alone one that juicy and flavorful. The acorn squash was like a bite of thanksgiving with its cider-y taste and the polenta cake was a pop of cumin flavor that tied it all together. The ravioli were al dente and had a scrumptious herbaceous oil topping along with the pumpkin coulis. Not only was it filled with minced duck, it came topped with slices of meat. Along with these awesome entrees, we shared a glass of Sangiovese. My husband works in the wine industry and was very impressed with it. We left feeling well-taken care of by our professional, friendly and extremely competent server, Will A. We thought the prices were reasonable and reflected the quality. Our experience here was one of our favorite memories on our vacation. Side note: the water cups! Loved them! Looked like Game of Thrones. Made the water taste extra refreshing! read more

The ambiance was pleasant and the food that we had was delicious. The only complaint I have is that we couldn't fully enjoy all the food we ordered because it took forever to get out. Luckily we had some bread and appetizers but for our entree and sides, we couldn't 100% enjoy it all because of the service and timing. From seating to getting lemonades and first water refill it took 30 minutes (I drank my entire glass of water when first seated). From seating to appetizer was 50 minutes. And from seating to entrees was an hour and 36 minutes. We ordered within 15 minutes of arrival. So, in my opinion, due to the inability to fully enjoy our food cause of the timing of delivery, I give 3 stars. Service was the deal breaker. Had food come out more efficiently this could have easily been a 4. read more

Tried this out for dinner on a business trip. The food was good and came out fast. I wasn't so hungry so I tried the French onion soup and chef salad, both good and lots of flavor. The service was on point. Really cute and unique decorations adorn this spot in the middle of downtown. read more

The Painted Pony. Historically known as the best restaurant in St. George. I've had great experiences here in the past. My experience today was awful. Long story short, the staff here completely messed up my Valentine's plans. They made a reservation for me a week ago (I made it in person) and they did not keep it. I went in today to see if I could change it and they said the reservation was never made. I was obviously frustrated. I was basically told I needed to be understanding because it's a busy day for them and me voicing my frustration with the situation was "stressing her out" . I related that it is even more stressful finding out your reservation for Valentine's Day was never actually made, even though I was told in person that it was, the day before Valentine's when there is nothing available anywhere else. None of this was met with understanding, and I was basically told I didn't know what happened when I came in the week prior, even though the person I was talking to today was never even there. At the end of the day I just got a phone call stating I was racist (I wasn't. Like, not at all. Anyone who knows me knows this is true.) and am not welcome back in their restaurant, which frankly I left with no desire to return to. Basically, The Painted Pony has good food, a subpar front end, and they would have you think that they are better than you. Very pretentious. Their mistakes are your fault and there is no convincing them otherwise. Used to be the best. No longer the case. Go to Aragosta for a much more authentic and classy dining experience. read more

Always a special occasion when we dine at the Painted Pony. Kim and I always enjoy taking our guest to this fine restaurant. Our guests actually requested this restaurant. What can I say, the food, service, and atmosphere are all very elegant. Food presentation is very appealing. More importantly it tastes delicious. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed their meal. The Randels certainly aim to please. Thank you for another lovely evening. read more

Wow and wow! The restaurant is beautiful and it opens up as you walk towards the back. They were gracious and opened up the patio for extra seating on Valentine's Day. They had heaters and blankets in case we got cold. The service was amazing, I saw one of the guys in charge of refilling water fix and older couple's wobbly table. No hesitation and he apologized for not noticing it sooner. Our waitress was amazing. When you tell people about food allergies and/or intolerances there often sighs or looks of uncertainty. If you're gluten free, dairy free, nut allergies, anti-inflammatory, etc the staff is incredibly accommodating and non-judgmental. Our chef was so cool (we got to meet her after dinner) she shared with us that she understood allergy struggles because her son has food allergies. I loved that anytime I had a question about the food and how it's prepared our waitress answered our questions (all of them) and the chef worked to produce exquisite food, down to the oils and prep surfaces used. Pictured: Winter Harvest Salad adjusted for anti-inflammatory/ autoimmune disease needs. I used the balsamic and olive oil at the table and it was so refreshing. Fresh fruit "martini" - just fresh fruit in a martini glass, the pineapple put it over the top. Not pictures: petite sirloin, green beans and mushrooms (nothing but the cooking oil and they were the best sautéed mushrooms I ever had). All adjusted for anti-inflammatory/ autoimmune and all delicious. Big thanks for the host at the front who was the only restaurant that offered to put us on their waitlist. We've been coming to Painted Pony a couple years and have always loved her attitude and demeanor. Thank you Painted Pony for helping me find food I could eat with my new intolerances. The entire experience was incredible m. read more

Had a delicious dinner with family. We made reservations and were seated immediately when we arrived. Our server, Emily, was delightful. We had the carrot and jalapeno soup and ceasar salad with the bacon wrapped dates to start. YUM! For our entrees we had the pork chop, lamb, and hangar steak. The corn bread pudding was good but a bit dry. Had a nice kick. The lamb was a tad overcooked but still good. The risotto was a bit under seasoned, we had hoped for more there so I'd sub that out for another side next time. The pork chop was seasoned nicely with a lovely chutney on top. The hangar steak was good with a nice seasoning. Nice place with a cute ambiance. read more

Great menu and service. Ate at the bar and was served by Hannah. I had a pork chop (specialty) and salad. My wife had the duck. My pork chop was considerably undercooked. I rarely send food back, especially that dish, because it had a sauce on top. I ate most of it but left some to show Hannah. She acknowledged it was undercooked but offered no remuneration. I was surprised. Left a smaller than usual gratuity, This is a very high priced restaurant, so expected something in return. Also, undercooked pork can be dangerous to eat. Will not return. read more

I was on vacation with my sisters in Saint George when we stumbled upon this amazing restaurant in the cutest area with delicious food. First, the outside area is absolutely fabulous. You have plenty of stores and restaurants. Cute cobblestone and brick building with multiple grass areas and ample parking. Second, the service was absolutely incredible the hostess sat us immediately and found us a place even on a packed evening. Our server was so kind and very knowledgeable about the menu and recommended some fantastic options. Third, the food was delicious. We ordered the sage smoked quail which was crispy on the outside but juicy and moist with amazing flavor and seasoning throughout. The iceberg wedge salad was fresh and crisp with just the right amount of blue cheese, bacon, tomatoes, and onions to top off the delightful flavor. I cannot recommend this amazing restaurant enough. It is absolutely fabulous and a must visit when in Saint George. read more

Service was impeccable! Ryan and Will were the best part of the visit. The bathroom is very nice like one you'd find in a home.

Very fancy. read more

Great service, great foods and nice atmosphere to dine. Great for celebrations, and make a reservation because it is a popular place to eat. French onion soup was in a real onion bowl: creative and tasty. Best ribeye, melts in your mouth, very tasty. I got mine cooked medium. The lamb was really tasty too. Garlic green beans, broccolini and the mash potatoes were fresh and tasty. Overall, a great place to dine! read more

We came here for our one year anniversary and can say this was some of the best food we have ever eaten! We were highly satisfied, we got the beet salad, which wasn't what we were expecting and completely beat our expectations, the smoked Brie and 2 mouth watering steak meals. We left full and happy. We also got a key lime dessert, which wasn't overly sweet or tart, just delightful to eat. We plan on coming back hopefully soon! With all that being said our waitress was less than, which is why we are giving a 4 instead of a 5 star review. She was very hard to talk to, didn't introduce herself, nor ask if we were there for a special occasion. Giving her the benefit of the doubt, is seems like she may have been having a bad day. However, we felt a little unimportant to her. With just a few questions and an introduction, I think our experience with her could have been a lot different. On a different note, our busser was amazing, he was so sweet and right on top of helping us. He was very pleasant and polite and it made me happy every time he came to our table. He deserves a raise! read more

I am not going to lie , I am from NY born and raised and now living in CA, so eating in St. GORGE I was scared! However I found this place on Yelp and this Coconut curry muscle was absolutely to die, for. I was beyond impressed, and the home made their breads, which was also very impressing, because I normally do not like any of the bread on the West Coast on the plus side the service from Christi and Brian was absolutely phenomenal. Highly recommend. Ps Christi drinks are amazing ! Abe is also wonderful from the east coast too! read more

Mildly upscale steakhouse in st george. You might want to make reservations to make sure you have a seat. Kind of hard to find, tucked on the second floor in the back corner of one of the buildings. Beet salad was pretty standard, the brie was pretty good. I had the bone in pork chop which was great and the lamb shank my date had was pretty good too. They have a very extensive wine selection. read more

Overall, a nice little lunch spot if you're in the area. The history of the shopping center is pretty cool. When we first pulled up we thought it was haunted and then hearing about all the history was pretty neat. The building is in a real estate building and kinda hidden. Overall, the food lacked some flavor and some things were overcooked. The did have a good menu of different items, but nothing really stood out as a wow! Service was a bit on the slow side, not sure if it's because we came in during lunch on a Weekday. Overall, 3 out of 5 stars. read more

Totally lived up to all the great reviews! Here are the things that we read about on Yelp, ordered, and loved! Stilton Fritters Baked Brie with Blueberries and Garlic (not a typo, and beyond delicious) Gorgonzola Salad Mussels (HUGE portion) Lamb Duck wrapped in bacon Pork chop Our server, John, was fab. We brought a 20 year old cab and John decanted it for us.

My favorite restaurant in St. George. I really enjoy the view of the lively courtyard down below. Drinks are always perfectly made. The food is excellent. My husband had a wine-braised beef dish that he said must have been cooked for three or four days. I had the scallops--excellent! We split a perfect spring salad with little peas and asparagus. When they heard we had a scheduling conflict, the staff was wonderful about the timing of our meal. Sorry we had to run away before dessert. read more

The only thing that would detract from this location is finding the door. If you're entering the building from the side closest to the front door, it's much easier. Coming from the back parking lot and being unfamiliar with Saint George or that shopping center, it took us a couple minutes to find the Painted Pony on the second floor. However, once we found it and requested a table, everything else was amazing. Beautiful views, looking out the window of the quaint little courtyard, service was very friendly and accommodating, and food was tasty! I had a salad with grilled chicken, my husband had the steak sandwich on sourdough baguette with fries. He commented a couple times how delicious it was. Would return! read more

Stopped in for lunch on way through town. Super friendly service by our server, Cyndy, was really friendly. Lovely atmosphere, both inside and on the back shaded patio, cooled by misters. Everything on the menu looked great, but opted for the brisket panini and special of day Croque Monsieur, both with side salad, which was delicious. Iced tea was home-brewed and fresh, and Arnold Palmer with lots of ice was very refreshing on this 97 degree day. read more

The bread they make fresh daily is OMGeeee amazing. Also have to give a shout out to the bar tender who makes the most amazing blackberry jalapeño margarita. Not spicy at all and not sweet just perfect. Completely recommended for lunch or dinner. Sorry I forgot pictures of the pool but we did get one of the margarita. read more

Food was just ok. It wasn't worth the price tag at the end of the meal. It was the service that was absolutely appalling, though. They sat us on the patio and just left us there.

I would not recommend the Painted Pony for food or service. read more
