While visiting Utah, I stopped by this place for lunch. I ordered the crab cakes and a Beet Salad with Salmon. The crab cakes were moist, seasoned perfectly, flavorful and packed with real crab.
The salad came with two thick slices of beets and a large portion of goat cheese. Without question, the crab cakes were some of the best I’ve had. Both dishes were amazing as was the plate’s presentation.
The restaurant is beautifully designed and the decor goes well with its overall vibe. Kudos, to my server Dominic. He had a great personality and was very honest when asked about his recommendations. He definitely understands and values the importance of providing good customer service.

Our last dining experience for our trip discovering southern Utah. We ordered peppers with pork belly, carrot jalapeno soup, pear, mussels in curry, halibut cheek with arancini, deep fried rice ball and duck confit. We liked the peppers but not the pork belly, seemed more like salty thick bacon. The duck was a bit dry, as well as the halibut. Mussels with curry sauce was nice as well as the pear. Plating was pretty. Service initially was good and efficient until it got busy in the evening. We did not get the bread we requested and water was not refilled. We did not find the waitress to give her the money, had to give to another helper. Food was fine but service needs to finish strong.

I ordered a tenderloin and asked for it medium, mine came out rare. My boyfriend asked for his lamb chop medium rare and it was barely warm. After asking for them to be recooked they came out exactly the same. So again I asked for them to be cooked for the third time they ended up taking my tenderloin off the bill. Honestly I am just super disappointed after hearing such good things. The table next to us also had a raw lamb chop AFTER the chef apologized to us. However our waitress Carolina was SO kind and understanding. She made the experience better. I just wish things went better.

Most everything was wonderful! We ate here for the first time on Saturday night. The atmosphere and staff were amazing!
We made reservations in advance, and there was no wait time. I really appreciated that!
Many rave about how wonderful the food is at Painted Pony!
I ordered the Bison tenderloin and the potatoes. The Bison was perfect. The potatoes were not cooked. I asked for mashed potatoes as a replacement and it tasted like someone dumped a large amount of dry mustard in the recipe. I couldn’t eat it. So disappointed. I was hoping to be impressed by the food, but that wasn’t the case. Not sure if I’m going back.

Atmosphere is nice and even the outdoor seating is good. We have been coming here for anniversaries and date nights every so often. Maybe 5+ times so far. Our first time was great and even the second time was nice. The food always looks good when presented. Most of the time it is pretty good. We have noticed the last few times that the seasoning is going downhill and even general flavors. We went again last Friday night. We sat outside and enjoyed the fresh air. We ordered crab cakes, french dip onion soups, ribeye, and venison. Expensive and plenty of food for 2. The server when he told us about the venison special said the price was $49. Then after I got my food we heard him telling a new table $65. I had ordered the venison instead of the other item I was thinking because of the $49 price tag and being cheaper. We asked our server Nate about the price and why he was saying two prices? Asked what it really was. Apparently it was $65. We weren’t happy about it considering I didn’t taste any salt or seasoning on the venison at all and that was my way and making our meal more affordable. I know it came with a berry sauce, but it needed finishing salt or something. You can’t serve steak without being seasoned at all. The sweet potato cake was stringy and weird textured. My husband’s was so so as well. Nate the server didn’t ask his manager or notify him of the mistake or make it up to us. So we made it up ourselves and took it out of his tip due to mishandling us then. Not good customer service when told a different price than the actual and no real apology or anything. We pay a lot to eat here and expect great fine dining food that is properly cooked and seasoned to go with the price tag. We just have been less wowed eat time. The season menu is fun, but hard to get a favorite when it keeps going away. We feel like going here less with how it seems to be going down more and more.

This was one of the most memorable dining experiences I’ve had, but for mixed reasons. The service was absolutely outstanding. The staff were friendly, attentive, and genuinely enjoyable to talk with. They made me feel completely welcome from start to finish though my reservation was for 815, I was sat at 830, even being 20 minutes early. The atmosphere was beautiful, setting high expectations for the meal.
Unfortunately, the food fell far short of what the setting and service promised. The steak was perfectly cooked and incredibly tender, the gristle melted in my mouth, but it was also heavily oversalted to the point of being inedible. The mushrooms and sauce that accompanied it were just as over-seasoned, making the entire dish nearly impossible to enjoy. I love salt, but this was overwhelming. It was the first time in my life I’ve ever left a steak unfinished, as shown in my photo—I had to stop halfway.
The crème Brulé was supposed to be butterscotch but tasted closer to pumpkin. It had never set properly, soupy and grainy with curdled eggs, and the top was burnt black instead of a crisp golden brown.
For a meal totaling around $130 for one person, the lack of quality control was unacceptable. If I were the owner, I would have a serious talk with the head chef, as this meal showed no standard of consistency or care.
That said, I want to emphasize that the staff were phenomenal—some of the best service I’ve ever experienced. Their professionalism and kindness were the highlight of the evening.
Also the Weekend at Bernie’s painting was low key awesome. well played on that.

A must-try in St. George! My family and I make sure to visit this place whenever we are passing through the city. Everything we have gotten here has been high-quality, delicious, and reasonably priced.
We ordered off the lunch menu last time, with pictures attached. The crab cake appetizer was probably the best crab cake I have ever had! I loved the fruit garnishing. The cured salmon sandwich tasted almost like a poke bowl in a sandwich, just as the waiter described. It was light and refreshing, and the flavors were very well executed.
I hope to visit many times again!

Had our team dinner here during Huntsman. Cyndy was knowledgeable, enthusiastic, and guided us through the chef’s offerings. All nine of us were delighted with our choices. Highly recommend the stuffed dates, brie, beet salad, and the bison. Everything was outstanding!

Walking into Painted Pony in St. George felt like teleporting onto the set of a spaghetti dish, directed by Salvador Dalí.
Outside, a life sized chef statue with a smirk that screamed “I know where the bodies are buried” while pointing at the French Onion Soup sign like it was a coded warning.
Inside, the walls were alive, portraits of strange singers with Medusa looking red hair and wine sniffing men with purple lightning leaking from their scalps, a gallery of spirits trapped between entrees.
Then the food started and reality wobbled. Baked Brie arrived in a molten black cauldron, bubbling like a portal to another timeline; the crostini were charred planks from a haunted shipwreck, and every bite was equal parts buttery luxury and apocalyptic omen.
Don’t forget about the Bacon Wrapped Almond Stuffed Dates? Forget it. Those things tasted like a shotgun wedding between a devil’s candy shop and a rodeo concession stand; sweet, smoky, salty, crunchy…I swear one blinked at me before I ate it.
And then…the mains. The Grilled Ribeye didn’t just sit there; it pulsed. It breathed. The microgreens quivered like they were trying to crawl off the plate.
The Bison Tenderloin was less a dish and more a ritual, juicy and tender, yes, but halfway through my bite I heard the low rumble of distant hooves and felt a spectral buffalo snort on the back of my neck.
The mac and cheese glowed with an orange radiance like molten iron. The risotto’s surface swirled on its own, whispering in brussels sprouts tongues!
Compared to Buca di Beppo, which is basically an overcaffeinated Nonna stuffing you into a meatball coma under flickering Christmas lights, Painted Pony is a mirage of the Wild West after dark!
Seductive, unhinged, and possessed. Buca fills your stomach; Painted Pony opens a third eye in it. This isn’t dinner. It’s an interdimensional cattle drive, and the bison spirits are leading you home.

A good spot for dinner and a drink. It’s a bit confusing to get to this restaurant. Overall service was great but slow for the food to arrive. The steaks were fantastic, duck and peppers were tasty. Overall fantastic place for a bit to eat if you’re in the area. Recommend the Bison.
