    This is MUST visit restaurant while in Santa Clara or Ivins Utah, you will not be disappointed at all! The food and service was absolutely impeccable with a small menu, but the details and flavor of every dish was precisely thought about. The restaurant itself is a cute little house on the road, a few tables for a quaint ambience, warm and cozy and Brian the severer who was also the wine Sommelier made our experience the best! He was super helpful in making sure we timed out the eating so that we could make our show after and was fun and gave great recommendations on all parts of the dinner. If you're in the area don't hesitate to stop by you WONT be disappointed.

    This place is AMAZING!! Kelsey was our server and she was incredible. I called early in the day and left a voicemail, the owner called me back immediately to make a reservation. This was perfect for our date night and we will be back very often. The food has incredible flavors and seriously was mind-blowing. A very cute, fine-dining, cottage experience. Highly, highly, recommend!

    Seasonally inspired dishes. I love places like this! I've been coming here since they opened just a few years ago and the very best part is that the menu evolves based on what's available and of course the different seasons. Supporting their local farmers as there are many in this area, they're also located in a historic home from the 1880's that is now an adorable and very cozy restaurant. Make sure to make a reservation as this tiny home only holds a few tables. Warmer months offer al fresco dining that's shaded by large umbrellas and I love it when peaches are in season for their awesome burrata & peach salad. Colder months offer very rich dishes like their steak in juniper cream sauce. Everything here is exceptional any time of year. The staff is warm and total foodies who get excited speaking about the menu. I can't say enough wonderful things about this place. If you're in this beautiful and historic area of Utah you definitely want to dine at Rylu's.

    Burger and the bratwurst! Best burger!!

    Rylu's is by far my favorite restaurant in St. George! It is located in Santa Clara, in a quaint old home. They offer a very small menu but everything on there is amazing. I love that they change the menu a few times a year based on seasonal options. They are only open for dinner, and you definitely need reservations, as there are only about six tables inside. They also have built a new patio cover on the outside so now there is more seating when the weather is good. They have recently stepped up their wine list, and offer some nice varieties. It's a great place for date night!

    Italian Refosco

    We had been here for lunch several times before, but this was the first time for dinner and we thoroughly enjoyed it. It was a group of 4 and we started with the coconut labneh which was delicious. For entrees, we had the monkfish, chicken, and tagliatelle, all had great presentation and unique flavors. The Italian Refosco wine was not something I tried before, but I'll be looking for it when I go to Rome in a couple weeks.

    House burger with a side salad

    The menu was perfect sized and very simple and easy to understand. The service was excellent. Especially since they had 4 or 5 tables they were serving and they took on our party of six. Our waitress was very kind, super attentive and very quick! Also I was expecting the food to be a little slower because we were a relatively larger group and the place is quite small but everything was super quick! I think everyone in our party very much enjoyed their meals. I had the wedge salad with chicken and it was a delight! The dressing was on the plate with the salad on top. I found the dressing to be super unique and quite delicious. The picked onions were so good, and all in all everything about the salad worked really well from the slices of avocado to the heirloom cherry tomatoes and cucumber. The chicken breast was perfectly cooked, juicy and super tender. I'll be back to get this salad and it's not very often that I say that! My wife had the burger and said it was really good. I may have gotten to eat her "pickles" or picked zucchini rather. They were so good. At first I thought they were just like bread and butter pickles. But they seemed a little different texture. Then someone brought to my attention that they were actually zucchini, different but really good. The burger patty was homemade and definitely a healthy patty. Nice and thick! She said the pimento cheese was super good as well. Our table also had the Po'Boy, the remarks on that were that it was so good just messy (not that that is a problem!) my step mom got the house salad with salmon. Her salmon looked divine and I tried some of her spiced macadamia nuts, they were so good! This will definitely be one of my go to places to grab a bite. I saw they had some desserts that I may have to try eventually too. If you're considering stopping for some lunch, definitely do. The service is great and the food is delicious!

    Father's Day this year was especially meaningful for our family, and thanks to this incredible…read morerestaurant, it became a memory we will cherish forever. From the moment we arrived, every dish was exceptional. The salad was fresh and beautifully prepared, the pork belly was absolutely outstanding, and the steak was cooked to perfection with the most incredible seasoning. Every bite was memorable. The biscuit was unreal--warm, comforting, and honestly one of the best I've ever had. What touched me most was the homemade ice cream. One spoonful instantly brought me back to childhood memories of my dad making homemade ice cream for us when we were kids. It was such a special and unexpected gift to relive those moments. But what truly made the evening unforgettable was our server, Parthee. She was absolutely amazing. Her kindness, attentiveness, and genuine warmth made us feel so welcomed and cared for. She didn't just provide excellent service--she made our night. Our family has been through a lot, including the heartbreaking loss of my sister. Father's Day hasn't always been easy for my sweet dad since then. This evening gave us something precious: a new happy memory together. Parthee, thank you for your compassion and for helping create a beautiful moment for our family during a difficult season of life. We are so grateful, and we will never forget it.

The wine was fine for my wife. I am a whiskey and scotch guy Ordered a macallan 12 - didnt have it Ordered a EH taylor -didn't have it. Ordered a Bookers Bourbon- had it however the world's largest ice block (literally sticking out of the glass) which diluted the 1 Oz $30 pour. Bartenders inexperience truly showed here. The food. For the love of God, discover salt. We ordered 4 things. Elote Scallops Crab Mac Ny strip (medium rare) Best dish by far was the elote. The scallops still tasted like the sea and were extremely gritty. The steak...... medium and on the way to well. Not seasoned. The sauces were a horseradish and a chimichuri. Neither of which saved that steak. We literally sent the crab Mac back to the kitchen. Inedible. Tasted like tuna mac that had been left in the oven too long. Our server took care of all of our concerns and saved the evening, even gave us a few sea salt chocolatechip cookies (the cookies get salt but the $60 steak doesnt?) ......until the food poisoning kicked in. So thanks for the cheap wesightloss I guess? Gave it a try, and we would never recommend it to anyone we respect or call friend

This was how the whole week went and I would have stopped coming back but I bought the package. The breakfast was better and service was good in the morning by the younger gentleman waiter. He was quick and attentive. I will not return to this restaurant. Very disappointing.

    45+ Minutes in 100° Heat, Passed Over Repeatedly, Then Offered a High-Top for a Toddler…read more Our experience at George's today was so bizarre, frustrating, and poorly handled that I am still trying to understand how a restaurant could treat a family this way. We arrived as a family of three--two adults and our toddler--and were told the wait would be approximately 15-20 minutes. We were added to the waitlist and waited outside in nearly 100-degree heat. While we waited, several parties arrived AFTER us. We know this with certainty because we watched them walk in, add their names to the list, come back outside, and even chatted with some of them while we all waited. Then, one by one, those parties were called inside and seated before us. After the last of them was seated, I finally went inside and asked the front-of-house employee in the pink shirt whether we were even still on the list. She assured me we were and said we were "next." We then waited approximately another 10 minutes. By the time someone finally came for us, our supposed 15-20 minute wait had become 45-46 minutes. And somehow, that wasn't even the most baffling part. We were walked through the restaurant, past multiple empty, standard-height tables, and taken down toward the bar. We passed yet another regular four-seat table there. And then we were offered a high-top table. For two adults and a TODDLER. Our toddler had physically walked into the restaurant with us when we originally put our names on the list. There was never any ambiguity that we had a small child with us. No booster or appropriate toddler seating was offered at this high-top, either. We obviously declined. Expecting a toddler to safely sit at a high-top is not merely impractical--it creates a completely unnecessary fall and safety risk. We were then informed that if we wanted a normal table, we would need to wait another 10-15 minutes. At that point, I was genuinely stunned. We had already waited more than twice the time we were quoted. We had watched parties who arrived after us get seated ahead of us. None of those parties, to our knowledge, were forced to choose between an inappropriate high-top and an additional wait. And we could literally see empty standard tables. When we specifically asked about the empty four-person table near the bar, we were told we couldn't sit there because that server was having a very busy day and it would be another 15-20 minutes before she could take us. So let me understand this: your restaurant allowed a family with a toddler to wait outside in extreme heat for more than 45 minutes, repeatedly seated later-arriving parties ahead of them, finally brought them inside only to offer seating obviously unsuitable for a small child, and then--while empty standard tables were plainly visible--essentially told them to go wait some more? At what point does someone on staff recognize that something has gone badly wrong and attempt to fix it? There was no meaningful apology. No sense of urgency. No empathy. No attempt to problem-solve. No acknowledgment that the original 15-20 minute estimate had turned into 45+ minutes while other guests were seated ahead of us. What makes this experience even more uncomfortable is that we are a mixed-race couple. I cannot say why we were treated differently, and I am not going to make an accusation I cannot prove. But after watching multiple parties who arrived after us be seated before us, only to then be offered uniquely inappropriate seating for our family, I am left questioning why our family was treated differently. Was there some legitimate explanation that was never communicated to us? Was this simply extraordinary incompetence and poor management of the waitlist? Or was there another reason? I genuinely don't know. But the fact that your staff's handling of the situation left us even having to ask that question should concern management. We were patient. We were polite. We waited far longer than we were told we would. We stood outside with our toddler in nearly 100-degree weather and gave your staff every opportunity to make the situation right. Instead, we were met with indifference and a level of front-of-house incompetence that was astonishing. Restaurants get busy. Servers get overwhelmed. Wait estimates can be wrong. None of that explains why multiple parties arriving after us were seated first, why no one noticed or corrected it, why a family visibly accompanied by a toddler was offered a high-top, or why--after more than 45 minutes--no one seemed remotely interested in finding a reasonable solution. We ultimately didn't need special treatment. We expected competent treatment. We didn't receive it. Management should seriously review how the waitlist was handled today and speak with the front-of-house staff involved, because this was one of the most poorly managed and deeply uncomfortable restaurant experiences our family has had.
