About Cordwood

Cordwood, a restaurant located outside the East Zion entrance/exit, offers a unique and delightful dining experience. Known for its use of local ingredients and seasonal menu changes, it has become a favorite among travelers and locals alike. The restaurant's cozy atmosphere, exceptional service, and fresh, delicious food have been highly praised. Standout dishes include the bone-in pork chop, pot roast, and scratch-made roasted potatoes.

Visitors have noted the peaceful view and friendly staff, with food portions that are generous.

The interior is beautiful, with fresh flowers on every table, creating a warm and welcoming environment. The staff provides top-notch service, making the experience even more memorable.
