These 2 were delicious and got us through several hours. Please show patience and kindness -- these ladies are working fast and are amazing!

There is indoor and outdoor seating but definitely try to eat outside. The view is so beautiful. The menu was pretty varied from tacos, sandwiches, burgers and meats. The drink menu was good too with lots of different draft beers and cocktails. We had the crispy Brussel sprouts -so good! The beer battered shrimp tacos on corn tortilla was really good and came with chips. Do try the "dirty soda"--vanilla root beer, coconut cream and lime. Loved it. The staff was super nice and even accommodated my request for no added salt. Definitely recommending this place!

We ordered the Slow-Roasted Pork Sandwich, but the meat was dry and the bread kept falling apart, making it difficult to enjoy. We also tried the Camp Burger, which was decent but lacked any real wow factor. Overall, it just felt like an average burger without anything particularly memorable about it. While the atmosphere and patio are nice, the food was bland overall and not something I'd personally come back for. If you're in the area, there are probably better food options nearby.

Our reservation was at 8:30pm, we were seated around 8:42pm, and our drinks (water, apple juice, and wine) arrived close to 9pm after a reminder to the server. Once we were ready to order, the server mentioned a few additional options that were not listed on the menu, which left us wondering why those were not shared earlier. We ordered the butter pasta, smashed burger, and skirt steak. The food overall was decent, but part of the skirt steak arrived cold and the dinner service was very slow. We eventually walked to the front desk ourselves to ask for the check and pay. The next evening, I stopped by asking for just a drink to enjoy the view of the pasture at sunset, but was told drinks are only served with dinner and there was no alternative nearby without a 15-minute drive. The property itself has a relaxing setting, but the restaurant felt understaffed during peak hours and limited by policies that made the experience less welcoming than expected.

We tried the Lemon White Mocha and the Bennett, and both were really good.

Also, if you're there later in the evening, definitely check out their speakeasy for cocktails -- it's a great hidden gem and absolutely worth the visit.

They do have some limited customer parking, I think it's not more than 2 hours though so you can't park here then go to the park for the day. The drink I had was their hot lavender maple latte; I could taste some lavender but the flavor wasn't too strong. I couldn't really pick up on maple, but it did seem like there was something else there. The pastries looked delicious but I didn't order anything since I'd already had a lot of sugar. They have some seating outside, but inside it's very limited since it's small and they have gift display stuff in there that you can also buy. Overall if needing a coffee/immaculate bathroom on your way in or out of Zion this is a good spot to stop!

My friend and I split a full rack of the "killer ribs" - it's definitely a good portion for 2 average sized people to share, and for $37, that makes it a pretty good value. The ribs were fine, but I have to say, I've definitely had better - I felt these ribs could've been a bit more tender / fall-off-the-bone. Also, while it looks like a lot of sauce on top, I thought it could've used more, as there isn't much beyond that top layer of the ribs. The staff are very friendly and helpful. The service speed is decent. There is a lively atmosphere thanks to the popularity of the restaurant. Overall, I think there is good reason for Oscar's Cafe to be as popular as it is, especially given the limited options near Zion, so as long as the wait isn't too long, it is worth stopping by.

Deliciousness!
