11 Best American Restaurants in Springdale

“Drove an hour to sit under the trees and enjoy a meal. Hostess seemed indifferent. Had to sit in a section that hadn’t been cleaned well. Our server Ashley heard we wanted to sit under the trees at the tables and said yes let’s do it. She made amazing recommendations and we were not disappointed. Ribeye 14 oz was perfect with the smashed potatoes and asparagus Mediterranean salad was perfect. Green chili penne pasta was spot on. We didn’t indulge in the Mocktails but the list was inviting. Then to top it off with apple crisp we couldn’t have been happier. The ambiance was perfect. Enjoying the slight breeze rustling the leaves made it worth the drive. This farm to table restaurant will be on our regular route of places to bring friends and enjoy the beauty of Zion and surrounding beauty. It is a must visit.“

“Not only the best meal my husband and I have had on vacation, but honestly one of the best meals we’ve had in general. 10/10 recommend!“

“We had our anniversary dinner here and it was so lovely! We sat outside on the patio, and the view of the mountains is amazing. Service from all staff was top notch, and our waitress was very attentive (sadly I can’t recall her name). We ordered the mushroom appetizer and it was so flavorful. I ordered the salmon entree, and it was so fresh and baked to perfection. The sauce and the vegetables it came with were also the perfect pairing. We will definitely be coming back!“

“We had the absolute best experience at Porters for our anniversary dinner! From the moment we walked in, the staff made us feel celebrated—everyone went out of their way to wish us a happy anniversary and make us feel right at home. Our waitress, Jenn, was incredible. She went above and beyond to ensure everything was perfect, and she made the night truly special for us. The food was out of this world—the steak was the best I’ve ever eaten. It came out hot, perfectly cooked, and absolutely delicious. The combination of amazing service, warm atmosphere, and unbeatable quality (at a price that matched the value!) made this an unforgettable evening. Thank you, Porters, for helping us celebrate in such a memorable way—we’ll definitely be back!“

“We had great food and great service at fair prices. Food and service is far above what I expect in a tourist town. Prices are right where I would expect them to be in a tourist town. That said, go eat, enjoy! They are worth the trip!“

“Stopped in here with a buddy last Wed after a full day of hiking and was extremely happy with both food and friendliness of staff (particularly Claudia and Ivy). Great place to unwind after a long day of exercise and wanting to relax in a great setting. Cubano sandwich and Nutella crepe both hit the spot! Will be back.“

“Stopped here for breakfast on our way leaving Zion, and it turned out to be one of the best surprises of the trip. The whole place has such a warm homey feel, you can tell it’s a family run spot, and that care really comes through in the food. I had a cheesy omelette with fresh herbs, crispy potatoes, and sourdough, served alongside fresh fruit, simple but done really well. The black coffee was rich and perfectly brewed, served in a beautiful handmade ceramic mug that added to the cozy vibe. Great service, great atmosphere, and food made with real care. Highly recommend if you’re in the area and want a genuine, comforting breakfast.“

“Took the shuttle to the lodge after a morning hike to Scout’s Lookout and was extremely pleasantly surprised by the food, drinks, and service. Genuinely one of the best margaritas I have ever had (maybe it was hiking delusion but it hit the spot). The chicken sandwich was great and the fries were deliciously seasoned. Would definitely be back if not for the margarita alone!“

“This is a great place to eat and just relax after a great day in Springdale or Zion. Food is delicious and drinks are plentiful .“

“WOW!!! 5 STARS!!! Jamie Jolly, our waitress, was so friendly, engaging, and spot on with her recommendations! I do not like horseradish sauce, but she talked me into the beef tenderloin and said the chef creams it and adds other layers of flavor. It was phenomenal! Best meal I’ve had in years! Jamie was wonderful and her other menu suggestions were impeccable and we had the most wonderful evening out on that patio in the early evening! I felt the price point was very reasonable for this absolutely gourmet dinner!“
