Fantastic gluten free options (GF buns, fries, bread, and BBQ sauce) as well as v*gan (sub impossible patty, salad offered as vegetarian, several directly vegetarian options that could be made vegan) with knowledgeable staff. Hard to find options on the road, but it was so good it was half gone before I snapped a photo.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian dishes marked and many items can be made vegetarian.Dietary restrictions: Lots of GF options!Parking: Gift shop and restaurant parking was not too packed but we were late lunch

Such a fantastic breakfast place. Unfortunately we are passing through town and we're only able to enjoy their breakfast menu. This will be a MUST visit place any time I'm near in Utah. Their breakfast makes all other restaurants pale in compare. The quantity is more than enough and delicious!! I recommend this place to anyone and everyone. Also, the service was great. The photos were taken after we had already begun eating (bc I hadn't planned on leaving a review, but felt I must let others know!!

Nice food overall especially the spicy cowboy burger. The smoked pulled pork was nice as well but not the best. Service was good and waitress friendly.

I visited Desert Grill on a Sunday as it was the only restaurant open in the area. Upon arrival, I was greeted by an overpowering smell of frying oil, which was quite off-putting. The waitress who attended to us was not friendly and seemed rushed, making the experience less enjoyable. As for the food, I found the dishes to be bland and overly greasy, seriously lacking in finesse and freshness. The overall ambiance of the restaurant didn't appeal to me, and the service could have been warmer and more welcoming.

The waitress was incredibly kind. The food was not edible. It's literally not edible. One bite of the burnt ends melt and it took enormous effort swallow it. Husband had a burger, he managed two bites. We immediately asked for the check. The waitress offered to have something else made for me. We declined. She didn't charge us for my meal and was very apologetic.

We were just passing thru town and saw the owner smoking some BBQ outside so I stopped as I love good BBQ. I asked him if it was good, and he humbly stated that he thinks so and so do many of his customers. He was a nice guy so I said I'd try it.We ordered a pound of the smoked brisket and an order of the pork ribs (with 2 sides) to go as we were just passing thru.Was it good? HELL YES!The ribs were moist, fall off the bone delicious and the brisket was smoked to perfection! The baked beans (with pineapple, a first) was tasty but the coleslaw was kind of bland. We came for the BBQ and not the slaw, so overall it was a great experience for us.The diner itself is humble and had probably seen better days but again, we stopped for (hopefully) some delicious BBQ.They had some homemade deserts that looked tempting but we gave it a pass, maybe next time.If you're in the area, or just passing thru, I don't think you'd be disappointed with the small town homestyle food at this joint. Thumbs up from us!

It was a quiet 8pm and surprisingly no many patrons on a Sat night. We got ourselves a Spicy Monkey burger, a Brisket Melt and a Pull Pork plate for sharing among 4 of us. The burger was very good especially with some jalapeno in it. The melt was excellent too with tender brisket between 2 slices of nicely toasted bread. The pull pork was not bad but can be better in tenderness. Both sides, coleslaw and mash potato were good. We had a nice meal all together also thanks to the friendly staffs.

Great place for dinner on the way home from Bryce Canyon! We came really hungry after a day of hiking and left very satisfied. I got the BBQ burger and fries and while both were delicious, the fries were the star. They were incredible—perfectly crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. My husband got the brisket, which was tender and flavorful. Our waitress was super attentive and our food came really fast. We did go in the off season (March 2022) and we came around 5 PM, so there were only 2-3 other people in the restaurant. We will definitely come again if we are ever back in the area!

IF YOUR GOING TO OWN A RESTAURANT THROW THE MICROWAVE OUT OF THE KITCHEN…..Came into town this was one of the only places to eat. When I came in a customer was complaining about the food but another table said it was good. We ordered and the food came out way too fast. Prime rib was not just cold in the middle it was literally still frozen and they had the audacity to say they were going to go warm it up. Chimichanga was barely warm on the outside. They said it just came out of the deep fryer. It was mush on the inside as well. If I could give a negative Star on this one, I would.

My boyfriend & his daughter & I, we were kind of just traveling through on our way back from St. George. I had to do a little work at a client's home on Hatch so we detoured a little & we were hungry. It was the only place in Panguitch we could find open, but it didn't look like a bad option. We were right. It was delicious & I was super impressed by their menu & offerings.Kid-friendliness: They do have good kid options on the menu.

Any port in a storm as they say, and this was the lucky place. The service was great and the server dude worked hard.Food was just ok, but again, after driving a long time sometimes that's not as important as just sitting down and resting.The restaurant is connected to a small gift shop where it seems they stopped time in 1993 and brought it into this store.

This food was terrible. Frozen prime rib. Chimichanga was barely warm and the inside was unrecognizable. I hate giving bad reviews but the reviews on here are saying how good it is. A couple there sent food back and the second thing brought out, they apologized to the waitress but could not eat it. I felt terrible for the servers.

After a long day hiking at Bryce Canyon NP, we checked what was near our hotel. The reviews for this sounded good. The two of us shared a Smoking Guns plate as well as an Apple Cinnamon roll for dessert. It was wonderful. The waitress was friendly, helpful suggesting the plate to split, and prompt with the food. I’d stop here again if I were in the area.
