We randomly picked place as stop over Kanab, the place was subscribed me with good foods, service , and family restaurant west vibe. We ordered the chop and Cajun trout. The chop is 4 stars as needing more salt. The trout was good and fresh. I highly recommend

Stopped in Kanab without a plan on a long drive and happened to land here on my birthday — glad I did. Had the trout and it was excellent, cooked perfectly. Service matched the food, Stacy was very attentive and polite. A great surprise find in a small town. Highly recommend if you're passing through.

Stopped in for lunch while passing through the area. We had an awesome experience here! The service was great and the food was awesome. I had Cowboys Chicken and I loved it! It was a delicious combination and when I finished it, I found myself wishing for some bread to wipe the gravy from the plate. My wife had Bison and it was perfectly prepared and very flavorful, just as Bison should be. We enjoyed ourselves and highly recommend this restaurant.

Came to this place as we are staying in town for several national parks. Food was great, I had the Bison steak and it was great. The taste was awesome, sliced through the steak and chopped it up in no time. The Rib eye was great also. Then we had the almond amaretto bread pudding which spectacular. They have an upstairs gallery which I bought two cards in the case. The best experience was great service by our waiter Harris! He was the best in class. I recommend to anyone and everyone!

What a great place to eat. The food was fantastic and the service was really good. When we arrived there was a little wait, but it went quickly. We tried the Tomatillo Lime Chicken and the Grand Staircase. They were both delicious, but I think I would choose the Grand Staircase as my favorite. It was so good. The only issue was there wasn’t enough. It was a small portion. Overall highly recommend this place and can’t wait to come back and try more dishes.
