My daughter Piper was so excited to bring me to her favorite place. It was most excellent. The food was delicious and presented very well. The craft cocktails were exquisite. Our server was very friendly and ensured everything was good. They even brought blankets by as the sun went down on their patio. We had the small plates. Such a great way to try multiple dishes. Will definitely come back next t time I visit from Idaho.

We were staying in the Kayenta area and Xetava was right next to our VRBO. We ate at both the restaurant and bar side during our vacation. The food was really delicious and the atmosphere is fabulous! The restaurant side has really interesting decor and we loved the layout. We were a little hesitant to take our children after reading other reviews, but our toddler and 5 year old loved the kid quesadilla with grapes and the kid burger at the bar. They had special plastic cups for them and were very accommodating. They do not have booster seats but it worked out just fine. Our favorite menu items were the salmon with lemon sauce, brussel sprouts, and mahi tacos at the restaurant, and then the corn ribs and seared ahi tuna at the bar. Can’t wait to come back next trip!

A great place to enjoy the desert scenery outdoors! One of the only places to sit outdoors with a view in the Saint George/ Ivins area. If you can score the fire place table outside. I often bring friends in town that are visiting because of the view after hiking or biking in snow canyon. We recently came this past weekend and our server Presley was upbeat and helpful making our experience amazing. I gave 4 stars for the food as I visit often it would be great to have some specials or new vegetarian options on the menu. It would be great also to have mocktails at the cafe as well. Currently only blended lemonade is the drink for non drinkers or soda 🙃. Overall a wonderful stop to enjoy the view and grab a bite.Vegetarian options: Kayenta Burger has an impossible patty option, Brussels and fries, cauliflower tacos, beet salad. If you have a gluten allergy like me the burger and tacos can be lettuce wrapped.

I tried this for the first time with some girlfriends. The service was incredible and the food was awesome. The only reason I gave it a 4 for atmosphere is because it is far out there but that has its charm too. The waiter had great recommendations and knew the menu well. He was great. The food was awesome. We had Patella, braised short rib, wings, a variety of cocktails and so much more. All were really good. My favorite was probably the braised short rib. Amazing!

The Xetava Bar and Kitchen is a warm and inviting place for you to enjoy many small plate offerings. We had the little bacon jam burger, a grass fed beef patty with arugula, melted Brie and their homemade bacon jam. It was a harmony of salty and sweet. The Bar offers a wide selection of cocktails, wines, and beers. We chose the guava coconut refresher mock tail. The combination of guava, coconut, lime and pineapple was a tropical delight. The wait staff was friendly, and the location and decor are truly one of a kind.- Hannah and Nya

The view is amazing and it has a very chill vibe. The food was very good- small plates all very tasty. The cocktails were really unique- I had the one with Mezcal and it was delicious!A little pricey and out of the way unless you're in this part of St. George but worth it in my opinion for something different.

Xetava has some of the best food in the St. George area! I love the limeade slush, the breakfast burritos, the avocado toast and the waffle from the brunch menu. The green curry mahi is a must try for dinner and I lived the steak salad this last time too! My favorite thing on their menu is the pita and hummus plate with veggies! Everything I have had here is amazing!

This place is amazing. I ordered the chicken melt and my wife ordered the cauliflower tacos. We always share meals. My first bite of that chicken melt and I was hooked and the cauliflower taco was spectacular. The sauce on it has so much flavor. The staff was super friendly from the hostess to our server. The atmosphere is gorgeous and very relaxing. We are from Los Angeles and was visiting in-laws in Mesquite Nevada and they said that that was their favorite restaurant so they had to take us there. I highly recommend this place.

This place is amazeballs. The tapas are beautiful and absolutely astonishingly delicious. We had the Thai shrimp nachos; they had a yellow curry like sauce and big fat shrimp. The Vietnamese noodles with crispy chicken was like a Bahn Mi in a bowl, with bright flavors and downright drinkable sauce. The ancient grains was perfectly crisp and fresh and a compliment to the other dishes. The pan seared crab cakes were really well balanced with seaweed salad, not too rich and perfectly crisp. For dessert we tried both the fried chocolate chip cookie; why in God's name did I not think of this before?! It was outstanding. The key lime pie was refreshing and exactly the right tartness. The watermelon martinis complimented the key lime pie and the fresh squeezed watermelon won the day. The Earl Grey haiku was like a boozy Arnold Palmer, but I ended up back at the watermelon martini. Our server, Luke, was fabulous, fun and totes cute. He recommended the crab cakes to us and did not steer us wrong.Kid-friendliness: Not kid friendly, this is a bar.

This place was fantastic! Perfect spot if you are attending an event at Tuacahn. (but go early). Strawberry Mule was delicious. We also had Thai Shrimp Nachos which were quite good. Vietnamese Noodles with Crispy Chicken was the best. We also enjoyed the Braised Short Rib as well as Lobster Mac & Cheese. This place is top notch. Service was excellent too. Outdoor seating is available when weather is not hot. We will definately return here.

Awesome little place in the Kayenta art village. Great variety of tapas and now a couple of full sized burgers as well. The best part of this place is the drink menu, they have some excellent and fun cocktails, a long beer list, and some hand picked excellent wine. There's plenty of seating both inside and out. We generally stop in every time we are in town and would highly recommend.Kid-friendliness: It's a bar in Utah, so no kids.Wheelchair accessibility: Ground level with handicap parking nearby, there are no issues getting a wheelchair in.

A group of six of us went yesterday 02/25/2024 for brunch. Food was very good as was the atmosphere however our server was one of the worst I've ever had. After taking our orders and getting our food it was as if we no longer existed. We ordered more coffee and she completely forgot about us until it was almost time to leave. Then we expected our check at any moment and 45 minutes later I had to go up and ask where she was. We took this time to visit with our son, his wife and our grandkids so it wasn't completely wasted time. I might mention the restaurant was not slammed or overly busy so it wasn't as if she was doing something else. During that time we saw her and waved her over but she turned her head and walked away. When she finally came over to take care of the bill it was as if she'd forgotten what we ordered. We also wanted to purchase two of their coffee mugs which she said she was going to get and she never did that either. We are not high maintenance customers as many of us have worked in the food industry and understand how hard it is. We will return to the restaurant but if she is there we will make sure she is not our server!

The food and cocktails are magical. Perfectly balanced and well curated like it’s a fine art museum. I’m one of those weirdos with an alarming amount of alcohol to make any cocktail you can at home with a variety of cocktail books. When I go to a bar, I want their drinks to be an experience that is hard to recreate. This place accomplishes that. Hands down the best drinks in the region and the food beats out most restaurants. The staff are well knowledgeable in what they are creating. The only wish is for them to be open longer.

We went here for the first time and had an incredible experience! Outdoor eating was excellent and the ambiance was lovely. Our waitress was darling and super nice.Our food came out fast and was really good. I especially love the iced mint lemonade. Only one con are they have no high chairs. With two little ones, that was a bit of a challenge but still worth it.

Excellent food, creative menu. We ended up ordering all the appetizers because they all sounded delicious and they were. Our server was very nice, spent time chatting with us about the area (wasn't super busy when we were there). Surrounded by art galleries and in a very unique area. Worth finding it!
