We went here with high expectations I guess. I ordered a filet minon.. It was cooked well but lacked in flavor. As a matter of fact, most things lack flavor considering the type of restaurant it is promoted as. I wouldn't recommend. Overly rated. read more

The food was great and the service was amazing. The owners come by and great each table.

The staff is super friendly the food delicious specially the pork chop, and the bartender was cleverly creative with the drinks. All around a great place to eat. read more

Fantastic gem near our camping spot at Yogi Bear Zion. Delicious cocktails, the chicken Alfredo was amazing, and the ambiance is perfect!!!! You can tell the owner puts passion and effort into a clean and cozy interior. Love the entrance, chess to play, and fantastic reading material. Highly recommend!!!!! read more

I'm so lucky that this place was recommended to us. It truly is a remarkable restaurant ! The service was absolutely outstanding. The chef came out and said thank you for all the nice compliments we gave. Our waiter was so cool. He did an incredible job for a tough party of 6. I highly recommend this place! Do yourself a favor and try it! read more

Balcony One - Dyno Rib! - Cocktail Bars Near Me - Virgin, Utah

The service here was wonderful; our bartender and waitress were both super sweet and accommodating. The food was pretty average though. My husband's ribs were not exactly "fall off the bone" as advertised, but he did enjoy the loaded baked potato. My arugula salad was perfectly fine. I think that if you happen to be in the area, this is a good place to stop for a snack, a glass of wine, and great conversation with the staff. However, I wouldn't go out of my way for the food. read more

It was a good effort, and kind service. The food lacked flavor and seasoning. We ordered 7 dishes and only the ribs and empanadas were okay. The ribeye was $63. No cap, just gristle. The rest was tough meat with no flavor. It was a $15 steak. read more

The atmosphere is calm and beautiful. The food was delicious. Everything we ordered was great. The waiter was super on top of anything we needed and helpful. read more

Such a great spot with beautiful scenery! We loved the food, it was fresh and delicious. The menu had a lot to choose from and everything looked amazing. Our waitress and the entire staff were welcoming and attentive. If we weren't traveling through the area, this would be a frequent restaurant for us! read more

I was really excited to try this restaurant based on the reviews. But it was a horrible day experience. I'm not one to leave a restaurant but it happened today. I was served water in a filthy glass. It took over 5 minutes to flag down a server. I'm a local and will not be back. read more

Everything about this place was 5 stars! One of the owners came to our table to introduce herself. She told us about the chefs and the menu. Very down to earth. Our waiter was friendly and fast as were the other wait staff. The food was to die for. Our group shared bites with each other as everything was incredibly delicious. This restaurant is fine dining with a relaxed special feel, not stuffy or pretentious. If you are visiting the area and want to add a special memory for your trip, be sure to eat here. It will not disappoint. read more

Stop! You will be happy you did. We stopped by chance and we're so happy we did. The chef here prepares everything from scratch from the amazing empanadas to the baklava. We ordered the pork chops which was melt in your mouth. When you go, ask for Hannah. Very attentive with a bubbly smile. We will be sure to stop again next time we are in the area. read more

OMG we ate there last week for my Birthday I can only say some of the best food we have ever had. We live in Carmel, California and this place surpasses any restaurant we have eaten at. First of all George and Trish are the best ever. We had bone in bacon, beef bolognese and a special chilean sea bass and for desert coconut cream cheese cake tasted like a mounds. This place is incredible! It is a must if you are visiting Zion. George and Trish are AMAZING ! read more

We live across the street and had been finding a reason to go check this place out, so we went today for my fiane's birthday, its a beautiful building and I plan to sneak away to have some drinks in the near future. Their bar has their own license so you don't have to dine in to drink if you don't want to. Our waiter was Austin, from the get go, he was awesome. Very friendly and treated us like friends. He does his job super well. Will probably ask for him every time we go from now on.The whole restaurant is very upscale for me so I felt a little out of place but he made us feel very welcome. I got the Ceviche Tostada for a starter and it was so fresh, all the flavors really came through with the mango and shrimp. The tortilla was very fresh and crunchy, the only down side was I wanted more, or so I thought. By the time we got done with our entree I was very content, but we got desert of course for his bday. For entree I got the linguine in lobster sauce, and it was amazingg!! the scallops and shrimp were so big and filling. The baby spinach and cherry tomatoes were cooked to perfection, I'd never had such a filling pasta dish that felt so light while eating. It was so nice. For dessert I snuck away and had them put a candle in their Tiramisu. I had a bite of it and it was a blast of flavor. The coffee was so nice and the cream was a nice pop of sweet. I got the cheesecake for myself and it was very good. In my picture I got too excited and took a bite of it before getting the picture, sorry! Under it is a raspberry PUREE, not a reduction and it was electric. I'd never had anything taste like that before and it was superb. Will def be coming back here. Hopefully for my wedding dinner!!! read more

Make sure you stop at Balcony One on your way out from Zion. It was right up our alley. Great atmosphere. Good service. Amazing food. My boyfriend and I got the southwest salad and the baby back ribs. But for appetizers we had French onion soup and chicken empanada, delicious. I would highly recommend this unique spot. Also, the owner was walking around greeting customers. Overall experience was great. Plus we love to support local businesses! read more

Really great food! Pasta Bolognese was out of this world delicious with a generous dollop of homemade creamy ricotta cheese. Others had chicken dinner, steaks, and Alfredo pasta. Dinner came with a side salad. Great selection of wine and beers. Live band was playing great blues and southern rock n roll outside on the patio on a Friday evening. Service was excellent! Recommend this place !!!! Owner came to check on our meal and credited the wonderful chef. read more

The girl that sat us was friendly and inviting. I wish I got her name. Ezra was our waiter and was so personable that it made our experience even better. His food suggestions were on point (my bf had the dinner salad/salmon and I had the wedge chopped up/shrimp linguine) and he had a jovial personality. We also had a cocktail each that were divine and refreshing. Cindy, the owner, was awesome. She went to every table and introduced herself and explained a little background about her, her husband, and the restaurant. She also is the artist of the paintings in the restaurant. Everyone was fantastic! The busboy (I forgot his name) was on top of things! Clearing any item on the table that we were done with. I would absolutely recommend this restaurant. read more

This was an unexpectedly incredible fine dining experience. The service was superior and the food was delicious. Highly recommend the linguini!! And if the weather is nice, definitely try to sit on the balcony!! Cocktails are also great! read more

Everything was wonderful. First things first, CLEAN. Bathroom was clean which is important to me. Our waiter 'Big Shawn' was so personable and informed about the menu and had open opinions regarding our questions. The menu has a great variety. Things that are different or have a very unique touch to make it special. We seriously had too much food and it was all so good. I had a bloody Mary (requested spicy) it was perfect! They have a ginger beer I have only had in Colorado that made it feel like Christmas when I saw it on the menu! French onion soup is a meal itself. The ribs my spouse had she said were delicious. A dry rub that was smoky and a little spicy with a very create sweet and spicy dipping sauce. The bread was light and good and olive oil / balsamic vinegar were ready on the table. The bolognese was a light flavorful sauce, not a thick hearty one. That would be up to personal preference. I enjoyed it. No room for dessert but the tirimisu looked wonderful (not soggy). We need good restaurants in this remote area. They have the right to be on the higher price side. I hope they do well with tourist traffic and are very successful! It is a new place we love. There is patio seating and a bar. We will go up just for appetizers, drinks and dessert. I hope every time is this good. I wish I had taken a picture of every thing we ordered. read more

We tried the baby back ribs and the pork chop. Both were incredible. Highly recommend. Generous portions. My son said the ribs were the best meat he's ever had. They were fall off the bone, melt in your mouth good. My pork chop was excellent. It was very moist and great flavor, with the toppings. Service was ok but friendly. A little slow, but it's a Saturday night and busy. Table bread wasn't anything special. read more

Delicious food. Wonderful ambiance. Don't ask me to save my salad fork for main course

If you're looking for an upscale meal in the Zion area, this is your place. Great cocktail menu along with some awesome food. The baby back ribs with nopales and the pork chop with Brussels sprouts were among our group's favorites. Be sure to try the housemade bacon balsamic dressing on your salad..woohoo! 5 stars if the staff was a bit more attentive. We were finished with our salads before the water was delivered and the food tray was left on our table for quite a while. I guess it gave us a place to place our empty plates...haha! The patio is nice and offers some nice views. Inside there are some quaint and unique dining areas (reserve the stage) and the artwork on display is top notch. read more

What an amazing place for dinner, the food was delicious, the sett was amazing and the the place is very nice. Thank you Noah for the great service and the owner thank you for having this restaurant, it is great.

Hello George. Scott here from the review on YELP who you responded to a few hours ago. We do appreciate you reaching out and trying to rectify the situation with a free meal, but we couldn't accept that as that wasn't our intention and we have no plans to drive up there again anytime soon. I understand we all have good and not-so-good experiences in life, and as you said, this just may have been one of them. We just wanted you to know, as well as others our experiences in an effort to make it better. Zoe, our waitress was wonderful. Attentive and pleasant. The salmon was very small, but tasty; my wife's ribeye was large but very fatty and pretty tough. She was very disappointed. Not worth $61 based on other better cuts here in St George at almost half that price. Our friend's chicken was small and lacked flavor, and my buddy's filet, he said was just ok. The drinks were good too. We got no dessert. It was the overall prices that didn't match the quality and portions. Also, your outside furniture is pretty tacky and mismatched with stools that have short backs or no backs at all or are the wrong heights. It was funny watching others arrive who had the same problem. And our large round table was broken in the base and wobbled the entire time. Couldn't fix it with a rolled up napkin. It just doesn't really fit Classy, which is what I thought this restaurant is known for. The loud and annoying weird outside RayGay-style music didn't help either. But overall, it was just ok. Also, our friend left her purse there that night and made several calls the next day speaking to someone prior to opening who said she'd have to wait until the manager arrived at 2. Made no sense. So we drove back up to Zion for a couple hours until 2 and even stopped by the restaurant to do a visual check outside and in the dumpsters for her purse. Nobody answered the door or the exterior window knocks but there was a white small car out front. And then when our friend called back the restaurant at 2:10ish, a male manager answered who was rude sounding put-out telling her that this was the second time looking for her purse and it couldn't find it. Basically saying, stop bothering us. Thankfully, within 30 seconds of that call, a female from your restaurant called back stating they did in fact have her purse and apologized for not searching better. We stopped by and got it. Again, just poor customer service for an already bad restaurant experience. Thanks again for the peace-offering, but we'll pass. Scott read more

Local friends brought us here and was fantastic! Excellent drinks and all the food very good. Tina our server was super nice great service and so pleasant & welcoming. This place is a keeper read more

My friend and I just arrived in Utah and was starving. We came across Balcony One and decided to try it. I wish I took a picture but I was starving. The food was amazing along with the people. The owners were there and they were so sweet. Food is pricey so be prepared to spend money. I got the prime rib which isn't priced on the menu but goes by market value. For a 10oz prime rib I payed $68. A bit steep in my opinion but I wanted it. It came with mashed potatoes and broccoli. My friend got the fettuccine and OMG it was fabulous. Highly recommend! read more

Great food, excellent service! Will definitely come back to this place when visiting Zion. You escape the hustle & bustle of Springdale and get delicious food with a Greek and Mexican inspired flavors. Wonderful place! read more

Excellent food service and ambience. We would highly recommend! Prime was excellent and salmon as well

What a great find. This restaurant had excellent food, excellent service, reasonable prices and fast service. We were eating late so I can't comment on the steaks. From their specialty menu we had pig wings. The jicama slaw was a perfect balance to the sweet and sour pork. The ceviche tostada was light crisp and refreshing. Again flavors were very well balanced. Also from the special tea menu we had that carpaccio. All I can say is Yum. Even the standard wedge salad was flavorful and delicious. I also had a jalapeño margarita. It was made with grapefruit juice and housemaid sour. It was definitely not hot, but flavorful and potent. We came here fairly late in the evening after hearing that the restaurants in Spring Dale were all crowded. We walked right in and just had the most amazing service, I would definitely come back. read more

We had an incredible experience at Balcony One. George and his wife have a very special place. The food is exceptional, their hospitality was even better. All homemade from scratch, you can taste the quality and true passion of their love of food. Everything we tried was spot on, best homemade ricotta cheese, baklava, pastas and empanadas we've had. If we're ever in the area again we'll for sure stop by. Thanks again for the ride George and all the best to you and your incredible restaurant! read more

We felt we're not welcomed. Waited forever for a seat. The waiter is really mean and not accomodating. Ended up going to a local restaurant across the street, the best!!! Do not go here!!! Go to Buffalo instead!!! read more

Looking for a delicious meal in a warm, welcoming atmosphere? Then Balcony One is just the place. The salmon is delicious and the baby back ribs are the best in Southern Utah. George and Cindy Rodinos provide a welcoming environment that make you feel like family! t this is a "must try" for a memorable dinner. read more

So we came here for a wedding rehearsal dinner buffet style. They served some of the best tacos I've ever had. I'd die for Spanish rice and I probably had at least two plates full of theirs. Great selection of sauces and sides as well. And the whole thing was gluten free!! The servers and everyone were polite and respectful and offered wet towels for the heat wave. 10/10 recommend for any private events. read more

My wife and our two kids ate here twice on our trip to Zion. The food was great and the staff treated us like family. I can't recommend this restaurant enough. Kids loved the pasta Alfredo and we enjoyed the salmon, smokey rib pappardelle, and great house salads with a really delicious sage vinaigrette. Excellent jalapeño margaritas and a really nice wine list. We so needed this place after a lot of road tripping. Go check it out. read more

We sat on the patio with our puppy. Yes it was cold but with the heating lamps on made it warm. I ordered the pork chops and it was so so delicious having a gluten and dairy allergy they were very accommodating. They also brought Sven a Dino bone to chew on to keep him busy through dinner. Great atmosphere, wonderful place, sweet people. Highly recommend!!! read more

Loved this place !!! The pork chop was the best EVER!!! The service was great and the vibe was so cool!! I will definitely be back!

A restaurant that charges for bread rolls should have been red flag. Food was mediocre and overpriced. Chairs should be reupholstered or replaced. Pork chop was salty and lacked flavor, the baked potato was not fresh, and the brussel sprouts were very sweet. The smokey rib papardelle was an embarrassment to a simple pasta dish. Appetizer combo lacked true Mediterranean flavor. Their hummus tasted like dairy. The food lacked plenty of flavor and presentation. Overpriced with hidden fees. In addition, the restaurant charges an additional 4% for using your credit card. Additional fees should be made clear in the menu. We are in town for additional days and were considering returning but this restaurant left a sour taste. read more

Wow wow wow!!! If I could give this place more than 5 stars I totally would. From the moment we stepped through those huge wooden doors, we were enthralled. Everything from the decor and cutlery to the impeccable service to the dinner specials, cocktails, and desserts were phenomenal. I had asked my Hurricane community where to get a decent margarita for Mardis Gras and a couple people suggested this place. I'm forever grateful they did. The jalapeno margarita was super good. For dinner I was tempted to get the smoked beef rib, but when the waiter told me about the veal chop special with crab meat and sweet potatoes, I couldn't resist. So glad I didn't. It was freaking amazing! I was in heaven with every bite. No joke. The meat was so tender and flavorful, smothered with real crab meat. They also did a unique take on the sweet potatoes, similar to gratin style, thinly sliced with what tasted like gruyere sandwiched in between. I've never had a better meal. Andy couldn't resist the other special, duck in demi glacé with broccolini. Also really yummy. He was particularly impressed with the sauce, saying it wasn't too sticky-sweet or tart like some are. We then finished off the night with the flourless chocolate tart. Another win! So rich, dense, and decadent! We also loved the friendly greeting from the owner. Can't wait to come back! read more
