Solid Spot with Great Dishes and Spacious Vibe
Vibe: The interior is really nice and spacious, making it a comfortable place to dine. I liked the overall atmosphere.
Service: Service was smooth and attentive—no issues at all.
Wait Time: Visited on a Sunday and was seated right away, which was great.
Food Quality: We tried the Pistachio Chicken and Idaho Trout—both were excellent, with distinct and unique flavor profiles. The Yellow Curry and Bean Paste were less enjoyable as the curry flavor was a bit overpowering. Portion sizes were generous.
Bang for Buck: A little on the pricier side, but the quality of food makes it worthwhile.
Location: Easy to find and convenient to get to.

Stopped by Wild Thyme Café for a quick lunch after kayaking the Colorado River, and it ended up being one of the best meals of the trip.
Food:
I ordered the elk burger with smoked Gouda, house burger sauce, and sage butter smashed potatoes — and it absolutely blew my mind how good everything was. The flavors were rich and perfectly balanced, and the potatoes were some of the best I’ve ever had. It was the kind of meal that completely hits the spot after a long morning outdoors.
Service:
Our waitress, Marsha, was absolutely outstanding. She was warm, attentive, and made us feel instantly welcome, going above and beyond to make sure we had a great experience.
Aesthetic:
The café has a cozy little dining area with a comfortable, relaxed vibe. I didn’t get to see much of the rest of the place, but it felt inviting and genuine. It’s a perfect small-town gem.

We had the ribeye, which was cooked to perfection and exceeded expectations. The existence of such a high-quality restaurant within a small hotel was astonishing, and the experience was truly amazing. We ordered the ribeye, followed by the hatched chili pasta. Notably, we dined at the sister restaurant today, and it failed to compare to the exceptional experience we had yesterday at the Knoap location.

Incredible meal and service! Ela was the best server ever. Attentive and welcoming, made GREAT suggestions. Make sure you try the Bison steak. We will come back to Kanab just for this restaurant.

Oct-23rd, I had dinner at the bar, took them a while to serve me. Ordered The Bison medallions, I asked for medium no bloody please. I had to send it back, totally under done, was rare & blood, when you cut into it. That’s fine for those that enjoy rare. It did not look like medallions either to me, seasoning bland, asparagus overcooked but the mashed potatoes were seasoned great & were delicious. So not worth $55. They didn’t even make the cocktail right forgot to put the rim on. And then one of the other waiters decided to read the menu to see if I was incorrect. Really he was not even serving me.
I just was so hungry & tired after hiking all day I should’ve sent it all back and went elsewhere. Apparently the chicken is really good. Not worth $77

One night stop in Kanab, UT and needed a place for dinner – so happy we found this gem! We were greeted and seated promptly. The server was friendly and everything came out quickly. The drink and food selection was nice and exactly what we were looking for after a hard day hiking.
The drinks (an old fashioned and a sage honey bulliet rye) were great! The food, even better!
Ribeye was cooked perfectly topped with bacon blue cheese butter and served with smashed red potatoes and asparagus. Superb! The Jamaican Jerk pork bowl had great flavor. The carrot cake with ice cream was huge and delicious!
Everything was 10/10! So glad we stopped in. Thank you!

Had a nice lunch at Wild Thyme while on a business trip in Kenab. Service was prompt and friendly. I had the corn chowder and house salad, both were good! One coworker had the quinoa salad and another had the tacos and both said they enjoyed their meals.

The staff were very friendly and pleasant. The restaurant offers two dining rooms and a seasonal outdoor patio. The food was great. I was surprised they only have one restroom .
I noticed a lineup several times.

Service was excellent! Food was beautifully presented but lacked the wow factor taste to match the price point. While we wouldn’t pick this cafe again, the food was fresh and cooked well.

Oh my gosh. This place is just awesome. I asked whether to get the bison or meatloaf. I am sure the meatloaf is good, but that bison tenderloin may have been the best meat I have ever had. Just phenomenal. Everyone else loved their food as well. We ran into the owner while snooping around her garden, which is behind the restaurant. What a lovely lady. No surprise that the restaurant is so good. If you only eat one place in SW Utah, make this the spot. Also, if you use the facilities, make sure you read the sign about what not to throw in the toilet. Take that to heart.
