“This was my first experience at Black Sage and it blew my expectations out of the water (which were high in the first place given everything I’ve heard and read).

SETTING
Black Sage sits on the property of Open Sky, a luxury glamping outfit that boasts amazing skyscapes and natural rugged beauty. Upon our arrival, we witnessed a gorgeous sunset and as we left the night sky was blanketed with bright stars.

The restaurant itself is intimate and modern with tasteful decor and offered both indoor and outdoor seating options. Something that stood out to me as well—that sometimes is easily overlooked—is the sound engineering indoors. I felt like we could have comfortable conversations without having to speak over the background noise and chatter of other tables, so we could truly enjoy each other’s company.

FOOD & SERVICE
Chef Charles has curated an incredible menu that made it difficult to choose, so it was great that our server JT walked us through the menu and answered any questions with thorough knowledge of the menu and kitchen.

The relish board was a delight with a great mix of flavors and high quality ingredients (I’ve never had caper berries so large or succulent before). And the peach and burrata dish was delectable with a shallot vinaigrette, flavorful local microgreens, and crispy fried sage. Needless to say, we wiped the plates clean.

It wasn’t easy selecting an entree with so many delectable options either, but with the guidance of JT, I landed on the halibut and it did not disappoint. The portion itself was very large and prepared expertly, sitting atop a mix of creamy hominy and balanced with a tart and sweet apple chutney (an unexpected and deliciously balanced flavor pairing I’d never think to make). Black Sage also scores bonus points for their wonderful wine and local craft beer selection.

Given the mouthwatering tone that the meal had set, we couldn’t leave without dessert, and sampled the cheesecake and bread pudding. While both were phenomenal, the bread pudding holds a special place in my sweet spot with its caramelized char and notes of fragrant orange, all balanced by a sweet cream ice cream.

Overall, Black Sage blew my socks off, and if you’re lucky enough to get a reservation you will not be disappointed (however, walk-ins are welcome and can be accommodated based on availability). It’s also great to see seasonality shine through in the offerings and the thoughtfulness to incorporate locally-sourced ingredients ensure they support the community they belong to. Above all else, Chef Charles’ care and attention to surprising flavor pairings and textures alongside beautiful plating makes for knock out dining. I cannot wait to come back.

Thank you Chef Charles, JT, and the entire Black Sage and Open Sky staff for such a lovely dining experience!”

“Wonderful food, great atmosphere! I recommend Balcony One 100%”

“The people who work here make this place off the hook. Bob is wonderful, but also the food is so great too. The buffalo or wagyu burger, fresh made French fries, and anything else is fabulous. Maybe don’t come here if you want some elegant night out. This is an eclectic artsy place where if you enjoy that kind of thing, you’ll love love love it!!

The beer is great, let Bob choose for you - it’s all wonderful. I highly recommend!”

“My husband and I ate at the Cactus Room tonight on a whim because the buffalo burger sounded good.

We both ordered the buffalo burger and fries - and from the first bite we both knew we will be coming back next time we are in town. Everyone working were super friendly and gave great recommendations. We also both got pie (brownie and banana cream) and I might dream of that pie in the future.

Great prices - do yourself a favor and check them out!”

“Stopped here on way back from Zion one night with adult kids for takeout. Was not disappointed at all. The owner is welcoming, food is delicious and there is a variety to choose from, loved it so much we went back for lunch next day before leaving the area. Highly recommend!”

“Absolutely love this place. We are locals and eat here probably twice a month. It is delicious adobe wood fire pizza oven that is out doors. Make sure you order hours in advance or you will not be able to get any orders in. Very friendly owners and family run. It does have canned and bottled soda available for purchase and 5 or 6 seats if you desire to eat there. Will continue to always come back.”

“The Staff was Friendly and helpful. The Peach Cake, Chocolate muffin and Jalapeño Bagel was incredible! Loaded with amazing flavors and great texture!!! I am a visitor to the area, but for sure I'll be coming back to Muddy Bees!!! Thank You to the Service and Baked Goodies!!!!”

“My husband and I came all the way from Maine and our number one bucket list food place was River Rock Roasting company. The atmosphere and food was amazing! The service was exceptional! We ate there atleast once a day if not twice a day during our five day stay. We plan to come back and visit again soon and can’t wait to have River Rock Roasting company again! The herbed mushroom truffle oil pizza and ham quiche were my favorites❤️❤️”

“Every time we go out here we are never disappointed. The food is always hot and soo flavorful.. The French fries are done to perfection., hot and crispy. Service is fast attentive and knowledgeable. There isn’t anything on the menu that I would not recommend. Wether it be ribs, burgers, spaghetti everything is tasty.🤤”

“This is by far the best Mexican food in Hurricane. Fast, friendly and delicious. Perfectly seasoned and balanced. Excellent portion sizes. Cannot recommend enough. Ordered two carne asada burritos to go yesterday and they were perfectly done, as always. This place is a jewel.”

“Best burger I've had in a long time”

“I like the staff. the food is good. But, the woman's bathroom door is very difficult to open for impaired people. my wife and went on 8/4. she uses a walker and she had bad time to get in the bathroom. she almost peed herself. to top it off she almost fell backwards. if that would of happened to my wife. there would be law suit. SO PLEASE FIX THE WOMENS DOOR!”

“Find the Hurricane Scooters to be very well run. Have an attendant stationed to take orders at busy times. I use the app which is easy to select the coffee and additives. In my case I request the attendant to only add a tiny amount of creamer and the staff fills that request very well. The staff is friendly and enthusiastic. One thing that stands out to me is that they are very appreciative of tips in the tip box at the pickup window. So many these days do not acknowledge that recognition. Finally the dark roast coffee is just right...not overly strong and smooth. Highly recommend this coffee stop.”

“Great food! Friendly staff!”

“Love these guys! I did an order online and was stuck in traffic trying to make it there to pick up before they closed. I was 5 minutes late getting there, but they patiently helped me anyways. Thanks Haylee!”

“Hands down Best service! I love the staff at this location! They always make my mornings! And the coffee is delicious!”

“Extensive menu, excellent, delicious food. We were a table of 4, table made guacamole was delicious with lots of freshly made chips. Service was outstanding. Everyone should give this place a try and make it a regular spot.”

“Muy buena Comida! Ambiente Mexicano, desde la música hasta la comida! 😎👊🙏😍”

“I used to work for the current manager, McKay, and I cannot speak highly enough about this man. When I was too poor to afford basic needs, he looked out for me more then a normal fast food manager would have. Every time I see him he's just as kind as I remember. A lovely and funny guy to be around in general, and absolutely the best manager I've ever worked for. So much respect and admiration for this guy. Needs a raise and solid Jimmy John salute. ?”

“Just a great fresh food place to go!! I Love it and I will be back!! Soo good”

“It's not available in Japan so I tried it ?
Each table has taco sauces with different levels of spiciness, so you can adjust the spiciness to your liking.
It was very delicious❗”
