    Salmon
    Wendy L.

    We got takeout from here. It was faster than waiting for a table during dinner time- about 20 minutes from ordering to pickup. We got the salmon and trout and both fish were cooked well. I found the couscous and Brussel sprouts to be too oily, but otherwise well seasoned.

    Service : top notch, attentive, friendly, and helpful with questions regarding gluten free options. Food : we shared a steak and ordered three sides (mushrooms, asparagus, as gratin potatoes). The steak was perfect. Great seasoning and not overcooked. Asparagus was not overcooked. Worth the money for a nice meal after a long day.

    Switchback Grille has such a beautiful ambiance--warm, upscale, and a perfect way to wind down after a day in Zion. The food was excellent. We started with an apps that were recommended by our server~ flavorful. For mains, the steak was cooked perfectly, and the seafood dish was just as impressive--both plated beautifully and full of flavor. Portions were generous without being overwhelming. Yes, it's on the spendy side, but the quality was absolutely worth it. Our server was not only attentive and friendly but also shared advice on local attractions, which added a thoughtful touch we really appreciated. Cocktails were average--not bad, but nothing memorable compared to the food. Still, overall, it was a wonderful evening with excellent service and a classy dining experience in Zion. Highly recommend if you're looking for a special dinner in the area.

    The entrance is shared so it's not too clear where to go at first. Once inside, upscale atmosphere, good space. We were sited right away, it was a weekday, and our server was very helpful and attentive. Drinks and food were good, but scallops appetizer that was too salty. Prices, portions and plating match the upscale restaurant vibe they go for. Manager is quick to address and solve issues. Overall it was a pleasant experience.

    A bit of calamari start our dinner
    Tom W.

    Nice atmosphere, friendly service and nice view of the red rocks. Our calamari was quite tasty with the peppers mixed in Next up was the crusted ahi tuna and bacon wrapped buffalo meatloaf with mashed potatoes and gravy. Both entrees were very tasty and large. I only wished the tomato on the meatloaf was grilled with some good char marks. Couldn't finish the whole thing - really I tried. Quiet night there as out of season but as the night went on folks started coming in.

    The food was so great! I liked the table we got and the view. It was a fancier restaurant than I had anticipated. My drink was so good but they did charge a $11 for a shot of Smirnoff for my drink. Which maybe I'm not used too but thought that was a little pricey. Also I wish the focaccia was more crispy but the balsamic was good!

    Coconut halibut
    Amy S.

    Another amazing meal. Nichole was a great server. The buratta cheese was delicious with pine nuts and pesto. The coconut halibut was so flavorful and cream corn so delicate and tasty. Our steak was supposed to be medium but came out very rare so had to send it back but otherwise it was a great meal. Nichole made recommendations that were spot on and was so helpful with a food allergy issue.

    We visited Zion from Orange County CA. We came in for dinner and it was AMAZING!! JT was our server and everything was literally perfect. He was very polite and had a great sense of humor. He really went the extra mile for us. All of our dishes were delicious and I really enjoyed my girly drink I had also!

    We had an incredible experience at Switchback. The restaurant is unassuming on the outside and when you walk in, is joint with a gift shop. The dining area is grand, complete with high ceilings and a fireplace. We started with the calamari, which was flavourful, and fried perfectly. We also had the bison and ahi tuna. The bison was cooked perfectly, and was juicy and tender. The mashed potatoes were like whipped cream - just so smooth and buttery. The ahi tuna had a perfect crust to it, and was meaty and tender. Service was also top notch. Switchback is on the pricier side, but you are getting true quality. Would definitely recommend.

    Absolutely love this place! Came for dinner after hiking in Zion. The view is beautiful. The service was just as amazing as the food.

    Pan-seared Scottish salmon
    Sarah R.

    This place looked so unassuming and with a name like switchback grille, we had no idea how fancy it would be. We were also quite surprised at the menu prices but it ended up being totally worth it. This may sound crazy, but the roasted butternut squash that came with my pan-seated Scottish Salmon was the amazing butternut squash I've had in my whole life. The roasted carrots were a little firm for my taste but were still decent. The fish was so deliciously fatty and perfectly cooked. Andy's steelhead trout was also amazing. A seasonal delicacy, Seasoned to perfection. He also enjoyed his roasted brussel sprouts. For an aperitif we got the ancho old fashioned wish was absolutely divine. Despite being comfortably full, andy got the crème brûlée and I tried the raspberry sorbet after being told they're both made in house. The crispy golden-sugar topping was just the right thickness. Unfortunately the underneath was a little too soupy but still tasted good. My sorbet was just right in that the texture was smooth, not sticky, and not too sweet; just the right tartness. The portion was huge though, 3 giant scoops, so was terribly stuffed by the time we finished. Next time we'll know better and stop with the mains.

We tried the pretzel appetizer (amazing), the beet carpaccio (also just fantastic). I had the duck, my daughter had the linguine bolognese and a side of steak cooked immaculately perfect. We also had the salmon tofu, burger and fries, the pork ribeye. Everything was plated beautifully and tasted 10/10!!! We even had dessert and my Utah peach and blueberry crisp was perfection and I was devastated to have to leave it half eaten as my child had a meltdown. Will definitely write this recommendation so that the world knows to stop here. Thank you for a lovely meal and for helping me with my kiddo.

One thing to keep in mind is parking. If you arrive after 4:00 PM, parking is free when you go inside and validate it. You'll need to use an app for the validation process. I was dining solo, so I sat at the bar. The bar area is fairly large and can probably accommodate around 10-20 people. They also have a wine cellar, which is a nice feature, and a great selection of Italian favorites. I also appreciated that they were willing to customize drinks. I ordered a mojito made with vodka instead of rum, and the service at the bar was excellent. As I looked around the restaurant, I noticed the serving team was attentive and timely. The entire restaurant was very clean, and there was great attention to detail throughout--not only with the food and presentation, but also behind the bar.

Parking was a bit confusing with multiple QR codes--using the wrong one will result in paying to park, which could be explained better. The hostess was welcoming, and our waiter was very nice. Our drinks took quite a while to arrive, and when our meals came out, my daughter's and mine arrived, but my husband's was missing. We were told he had only ordered a salad, which wasn't correct, so his entrée had to be ordered while we ate. No one enjoys having one person at the table waiting for their meal while everyone else is finished eating. The manager explained it was our waiter's second day. I understand everyone has to learn, but new employees should be properly supported until they're comfortable. That's fair to both the employee and the customer. Unfortunately, after driving nearly an hour each way, the experience didn't live up to our expectations.

The outdoor seating had a really fun, relaxed feel to it, and it was nice to just sit down, eat, and enjoy the Springdale atmosphere! We were at the Zion National Park all day. I ordered the Philly cheesesteak on sourdough with just the steak and cheese, and it was so yummy! The meat was juicy and tender. The sandwich itself was satisfying. The sourdough was a great addition too. I don't typically have sourdough bread with my philly cheesesteak. I also had the chips with guacamole and salsa, and those were so delicious! The guacamole and salsa tasted fresh and homemade! I ended up eating all of the guacamole with the chips! It was so yummy. The salsa was slightly spicy. I also tried a bite of the garlic cheeseburger, and the patty was juicy and flavorful. I only had a bite, but it was enough to know that would be a good choice too! Service was great, and everything about the meal felt easy and enjoyable. After a full day at Zion, this was such a fun dinner spot and definitely one of those places I'd recommend if you're staying in Springdale or visiting the park.
