Cute little place to eat after hiking all day. The service was great and they were very friendly. Everyone seemed to enjoy their food--only negative thing I have to say is about their rice, it tasted like it was instant rice from a box and it was not very good. Other than that I would recommend this place. read more

Extremely disappointed. I called to order 2 to go meals at 8:25 pm. The person who answered the phone seemed annoyed with my question and then told me that they weren't doing to go meals anymore. I then asked him what time they closed and he said 9:00. So we walked over to this restaurant in the rain with 2 little kids in tow. We seated ourselves outside under the covered patio. There were 2 waiters outside, neither of whom helped us. I had to go inside and ask for menus. The waiter handed them to me without a word. As we were reading the menu, another waiter came out and told us that they were no longer serving food. It was about 8:35 pm and they didn't close until 9:00. I told him that we really only wanted food for the kids and he said they were out of food. A restaurant out of food...yeah right!?! The other customers near us were disappointed for us and even told the waiter they should help us. We grabbed our kids and went back to our hotel where we got a recommendation to go to Oscars. Thankfully, we ended up at Oscars and it was amazing. They were friendly, helpful and open until 10:00 pm!! Unfortunately, I can't recommend this restaurant based on their food since they wouldn't serve us and they've lost me and my family as customers forever. read more

I would give this place zero stars if there was the option. The attitude of the manager sucks. He was extremely rude to my family, and he definitely doesn't go by the "customer is always right" rule. We ordered just tacos by themselves and they don't have a la carte, and that's fine. However, they didn't even mention there was no a la carte until we saw the bill. When we mentioned that it was a bit too pricey, the manager went completely rude on us. He said to us, "This isn't mcdonalds we can't just to a la carte." He was extremely rude and told us to order exactly what we wanted. Bottom line my family and I are super unhappy with the attitude of the this place and I do not recommend it. read more

Very slow service. I was waiting for 15 mins to be attended and I decided to change my diner plan.

I LOVED this restaurant! What a pleasant surprise to come across such a unique menu inside Zion National Park. The waiter was very nice and accommodating with changes to the menu. The spaghetti squash enchiladas were so GOOD! Fish tacos were great! And the grape salsa was refreshing. The meals are served with a beautiful side salad. Not only is the menu and food fantastic, the view is breath taking. I will definitely be back to this restaurant on my next visit to Zion. read more

We came here on the recommendation of a friend for lunch. It was amazing! The views were great and the weather was nice, which was lucky. The food was delicious. I really great take on Mexican. Everything was beautifully plated. The owner (I think), John, was really nice and came out to chat when he served our food. It was so good that we went back again for dinner! Second time around was just as delicious. My only complaint was that the waitress, Kim, was less than friendly. It seemed like us being there was some sort of inconvenience to her. Other than that, everything was great! If you go, definitely get the chocolate peanut butter habanero creme brulee. It may sound a little strange but it is really good! read more

Just got done eating at this place. The sign says 'gourmet' but i was expecting 'gas station' based on the appearance and some of the other establishments in this town. Boy was I surprised. This is definitely a diamond in the rough. They are killin it in the kitchen. Fresh and flavorful with their own twist on Mexican. My wife had the chili relleno stuffed with goat and monterey jack cheeses and it was superb. I had carne asada and shrimp tacos. The carne asada had a great marinade and exceptional flavor and the shrimp was cooked perfectly. The service was also very good as the waiter took the time to make sure the kids liked what they had as well. This is a great stop after a long day of hiking in the park. read more

Horrible, I wish yelp had a option for zero stars. You might show up with plenty of tables available, sorry we can't seat you because we have a "small kitchen". No worries we'll hang at the bar, nope no bar but you can sit next to the gas station bathroom in the parking lot, which you can't use because there are people who are sitting at their table that are "in line" ahead of you. Oh and the guy seating people is a huge asshole. The food could great but attitude and customer service will prevent you from finding out. read more

Lousy service. We went at this place after reading reviews on yelp around 8:30 pm. We waited for 15 minutes to be seated although the servers and hostess saw us waiting , no one came to ask us so we went inside and asked for the table. Water came after 20 minutes and finally our order was taken Food came after we asked for it about 25 minutes. It was not busy or crowded. The food was terrible. We ordered nachos. Chips were burned and cheese was not melted . There were hardly any veges in it. Only good thing was that waitress was honest for the portions. I would not recommend this place. Do not know how it got 4 and 5 stars. read more

Thank you Yelp reviewers - you are the reason we tried this place and we were not disappointed. I love, love, love this place. I will recommend to all and I will return. The food was fantastic. This was my first time in Zion and I was reading all the yelp reviews to try to find some good recommendations. This sounded like the place. After a long day of hiking in Zion we stopped in around 4 pm for a late lunch. It was not crowded so we didn't have to wait for a table and service was good. The waitress was really nice and the cook/chef too. We had the chicken enchiladas and the BBQ pizza and both were fantastic. The dishes were well prepared - fresh and hot and very tasty. We also tried the habanero peanut butter chocolate creme brûlée (recommended in other reviews) and that too was fantastic. Seriously I can't say enough about how good that meal was. It was a perfect end to a perfect day. It is a tiny place and I'm sure it gets crowded sometimes and then service slows down. Don't let that keep you from here. This is some of the best food I've had. I can't wait to return and try other dishes. read more

Amazing food both in terms of quality and taste. Tried their chicken taco and chicken enchiladas.

Tried to get a small order to go, but the rude staff said they were too busy. I have worked in the restaurant business and know that this can be the case at times. 5 tables with an equal amount of servers is not too busy. It's too lazy. read more

Food is good and plentiful but service is a bit slow and lacking. Not bad for a decent lunch.

Did not feel wanted or welcomed at all. We came in at 9:15 and they close at 10. I don't like to be that person to come into a restaurant right before closing but I thought 45 minutes was plenty of time, and wouldn't be pushing it. Guess not. When I walked in, I asked if they were open because I saw the chairs inside were stacked on top of the tables, but there were a few people sitting on the patio. Literally all she said was "yea" and looked extremely inconvenienced by me coming in. She took us to a table on the patio which was reeaally quiet- no music or anything and dimly lit. Our server took our orders and was great- nothing bad about him. It was also overpriced for the amount of food and quality. $15 for 2 chicken tacos... Normally I get full pretty quick, but I was still so hungry I ordered chips and guacamole to go. Small portion for $6... Server said he would meet me at the cashier to pay my check. When I went in to the cashier, the hostess and another girl (hostess?) were behind the register talking, and completely ignored me as I approached until I finally said, "so the server asked me to come to the register?" as I placed my payment on the counter. She didn't even really respond to me, just took my card and gave me the sign slip and a pen. I noticed my server standing behind her txting and talking to the other girl. I didn't write a tip on the cc slip because I left a cash tip on the table. I wanted him to know, so I handed the signed slip back to the girl and spoke up to my server & said, "I left your cash tip on the table, thank you!" And literally both girls stared me down. As I went to my car, I saw the 2 of them immediately go to my table and pick up the dishes and cash. Kay, glad to finally be out of your hair. read more

The food was top notch for a family friendly restaurant in a tourist area. I had the burrito with chicken, "smothered." There was ample chicken inside and just the right amount of veggies and no "filler" in the form of rice. My wife had the Asada tacos which she said were excellent and our short people had a bacon cheese burger and the kid's quesadilla. All were very pleased with their selection and my wife, who nibbled on the quesadilla, said it was unexpectedly great for a plain cheese 'dilla. Service was friendly and the views of the mountains of Zion were amazing. read more

Great local beer and fresh food, we had a salad, fish tacos, and prawn tacos. Perfect antidote for an insanely hot day. Good for families, great service. read more

Excellent food - highly recommend enchiladas, chicken tacos, and prawn tacos. Expect to wait for a table because they seat you according to the kitchen's ability to prepare the food. 7pm seems to be prime dinner time in Springdale so come earlier or be ready to hang out. Food is definitely worth the wait. read more

Excellent food. We would come here again. The spaghetti squash enchilada was delicious.

As others have said, very humble surroundings in an old converted gas station. We had the chicken and spaghetti squash enchiladas with black beans and side salad. Very good. And the seating outside has you gawking at the incomparable Zion canyon. Like all restaurants in Springdale, it is surprisingly pricey. But expected little in a dinky town outside a national park. read more

good food good service. The burrito with tenderloin steak was very tasty. A little pricey for a burrito but at least it tasted good.

We ate here in October while camping at Zion - loved the staff and the food. Even though it was a bit chilly, we sat outside and were plenty warm with all the space heaters. Our waiter even moved one closer to us since there weren't many people eating outside. The goat cheese chile relleno was excellent and beautifully plated. Small, casual place with freshly prepared food - good thing we didn't go on our first night or we might have totally skipped cooking by the camp fire! read more

We had just come in from in from a long day of hiking at Zion. We were hungry and it wouldn't have taken a lot to make us happy. Place was super slow when we came in; there was no one sitting inside. We wanted to sit inside since it was really hot outside, but we had to sit outside (still not sure why, we didn't stink, we'd showered before we came in!). We ordered chips and salsa, but it never came. For entrees we ordered a "Whiptail" burrito, beef tacos and nachos. Burrito didn't come with any salsa or sour cream, we would have asked for some but the server didn't come back until we were already almost done eating it. Burrito was way too spicy, but like I said we were so hungry we would have eaten bark at that point. Tacos were ok, and nachos were ok as well. Bill came to about $60 including 2 beers (not including tip), we won't be going back. I'm disappointed, this place had great reviews. read more

Had service been a little faster, they would have earned five stars. Everything else was good. You can kinda tell that the location was a gas station in a previous life, with a gift shop where the mechanic would have worked and seating by the gas pumps. Food was incredible, with a creative flair and good specials. Although service was slow, the waiter was friendly and fun. And you can't beat outdoor seating on a nice day looking at the cliffs of Zion's canyon. read more

If service means nothing to you, than this is the place for you. I will saw the food was very good the first time I ate here for lunch. So much that I came back on my way out of Zion. Unfortunately the second experience here was horrible. Slow service is an understatement. After I had to inquire about my burger and nachos (not that difficult you would think) I was told "the wind blew the oven out and it was delayed"...WHAT? This is after I saw two different tables who came in after us get their food before us (one of the items was nachos!). When my food finally came the nachos were burnt and burger not that good either. I was told the "nachos just come that way" from the chef who then proceeded to be very arrogant and defensive. Bottom line this place has service issues. If anything goes wrong here the staff becomes very defensive and unprofessional. That is not the way to run a business especially when you only have good food half the time. Only good thing I can say right now is had good local beer lol. read more

Food was ok. I think the price is ridiculously high. I felt like i was sitting at a gas station. The furniture and utensils was more fit for a fast food joint. read more

Very casual place with good food. Not your usual tex-mex, but very good. Portions on the small side for the price but quality ingredients. Music is varied and adds fun to the charm of the place. Limited inside seating. read more

Had one of the best burritos ever (get it smothered!). Came back the next day for ribs and they were fall off the bone tender. So good! Not to mention Jaime our server was the best. Very personable and took fantastic care of us. It's hard to find such a great place like this with amazing food great atmosphere and top notch service. Thank you whiptail for being you. read more

The tacos were good, but certainly not 17 dollars good. No toilet paper in the bathroom, and we were there immediately after they opened.. Food also took quite a bit longer than two orders of tacos should. read more

Best taco salad I have ever had. Wait staff did their job well. We went there twice during our three day stay in Springdale.

Seriously delicious! We had the chips/salsa/guac, goat cheese chile relleno, chicken enchiladas and the smothered steak burrito. Our son had chicken strips with fries and that was so good also! (Asked for ranch and they didn't have any but the fry sauce and BBQ were yummy, no milk either) So glad we got in before they closed for the month of January, we totally would have returned had they not. Side of the road joint attached to a lackluster souvenir shop but the food!!! I read reviews on yelp which were intriguing to a foodie like myself, and I'm so glad I trusted them. They offer bottled beer (wasn't very cold) and a rotating list of wine. Only bummer was we wanted to sit on the patio to see the amazing views but they didn't have any propane in the heaters. We could see enough from the windows though and the food more than made up for that. read more

the place is cute. the owner is friendly and he is a photographer; the restaurant has some of his work. i really loved what i had; it was a sesame crusted tofu with their own sauce; it was one of the best meals i had on my 3 week road trip across america. read more

We ordered the spaghetti squash enchiladas, Carne asada tacos, and fish tacos. Everything was amazing!! For Desert we had chocolate peanut butter jabenero custard which was spectacular! We will be back for sure! read more

If you want mexican food in this town, go to Casa de Amigos. This place is touted as mexican/new but its average across the board. i had the fire asada tacos and they were just okay. maybe try their "famous" goat cheese relleno. also, don't plan on getting a good beer here. it's all watered-down 4% or bud. read more

Decent food, it won't blow you away but don't expect the meal of your life.

Great place to stop for a lunch or dinner near Zion National Park. Conveniently located lust a few minutes walk from the park entrance and next to a shuttle stop, this Mexican-American grill offers a modest menu in a more modest location, but every item on the menu is well thought out and presented. Absolutely delicious and reasonably priced (exceptionally priced given location). read more

Great food, great service! We ate here for dinner and came back for lunch the following day because we enjoyed it so much. The avocado salad was delicious, as were the tacos! Awesome after a long day of hiking. read more

This place was great. Way better than the "O"ther Mexican place in town. Food was flavorful and worth the price. Service was great!

I would have given this place five stars, if only the service had been better. But when you come in, ask when one of the outdoor tables might become available, then decide to sit inside rather than wait... only to have the waitstaff mimic your question in the back loud enough for you to hear, (As in "it's another tourist asking when one of the outside tables might be f*cking available" and then laughing it off...) perhaps it's not worth waiting to find out just how good that squash enchilada is. Because it's really REALLY good. So your experience depends on your tolerance level for rude and inattentive waitstaff... read more

Complaints about food prices in Springdale? Think about how difficult it is to get fresh ingredients delivered, then well-prepared, way out here! After a week of generic brewery, National Park restaurant and bland 'Mexican' food, it was a relief to dine here. If the vegetarian daughter had been with us this trip, she would've been very happy to find this place. During triple-degree heat, we sat inside and had the spaghetti squash enchiladas, chicken enchiladas and fish tacos. Son thought the chopped fish was weird but the tacos still tasted great. The fresh (eg. yes, it costs more than wilted iceberg) salad with a homemade inventive dressing was also a welcome change from our week of dining disasters. If we had more time in Springdale, we'd come back to try the sesame tofu! Place was a bit hard to spot and looked a bit suspicious but we're so glad we paid attention to the positive Yelp reviews. read more

Great spot just outside the park. Nice outdoor seating and fast service. Spaghetti squash enchiladas were excellent as were carne asada tacoes. Kids menu good too. If I had to pick one tex mex I would choose oscars over here, but with 2 nights we were able to do both and were happy with both meals. read more
