    We got to the restaurant about 20 minutes before it closed and at no point did they make us feel rushed or uncomfortable. Our server was friendly and had a wonderful personality. Our food was delicious and the ribs and French fries were our favorite! The place has big TV's and it is welcoming to all. Truly enjoyed this as our first meal in Moab!

    We went to Moab for a few days and ate here more than once! The staff was kind, the establishment was clean, food came out quickly, and were seated immediately. I ordered the Pesto Sandwich twice, we tried the Brisket Sandwich, Wedge Salad, and Fish & Chips. The patio seating was comfortable and included a beautiful view. The only thing I wish they had was cocktails, but we were not disappointed with the wine and beer options!

    Quick immediate seating for my party of 7. Wide expansive menu. All the food options were well received and everyone enjoyed their ordered entree. The sweet potato fries are truly crazy. You should absolutely order some. The burger was good and filling. Their strawberry lemonade looked delicious in a massive stein.

    Got seated quickly with a beautiful view! Ordered eggplant Parmesan and husband ordered the brisket meal. Mine was made from scratch and the brisket was smoked on site. Our waiter Carlos was so gracious and attentive. Loved this place!

    Brisket sandwich and sweet potato fries. Slightly fatty meat, but good flavor.

    Shay was a great waitress and was very attentive. Our food choices were so yummy! We highly recommend this restaurant if you are in Moab.

    For Moab tourists, the cavernous log cabin feel of this restaurant makes for a great setting to take in a family meal - with a large fireplace, local photos and (of course) ubiquitous broken raft oars. The servers are authentic, know the menu well and ensure you feel like a valued guest!! As for food, one theme stood out: Bacon and Range. Our family steered toward the wonderful chicken sandwich (gluten free bread was solid) and the Cobb Salad. The sweep potato fried are topped with a homemade sugary syrup (a bit sweet for my palate). While the food is not Five Star, it surely made for a solid meal in Moab.

    Disappointed the sirloin was inedible. Extremely tough -long wait not worth it. The chix salad was huge but tasteless

    Glazed salmon, yum.

    We needed somewhere to grab dinner on our way to Canyonlands to spend some quality time catching the views and walking some trails. Food was very good; salmon dish was tasty (not the biggest portion but no complaints). Waitress was a doll and told you exactly what to order if you were waffling between two items. They got us in and out of there, which worked great for our schedule! Nice place and clearly a town favorite; there were people waiting outside before it opened at 4:30pm!

    The sweet potato fries were unreal! Soooo good, my kids ate all of them off my plate. The desolation burger was amazing, highly reccomend. Kid friendly with games out front. Our waiter Vinny was so great!

    We stopped here for dinner. They are dog friendly and have a great patio with heaters to sit outside. Our golden retriever loved it and they brought her out a fresh bowl of water along with our waters. We had the pleasure of being served by Melena. She was fantastic and super helpful! She made great recommendations for beer and food. I had the salmon that came with veges and mashed potatoes. The sauce was sweet and spicy. Cooked well. My husband had the buffalo chicken sandwich with sweet potato fries. He gave it a 4/5. Sweet potato fries had a syrup drizzle that he said was too sweet and not needed. Hot sauce was great but the bun was a little thick. Overall good food, great service, and clean restaurants.

    The beers were good the good was average. The nachos used really bad cheese and the meat was all fat.

    The summary: This…read moreplace fills a hole in Moab that's been needed. A sit down bar that (It's also family friendly ) The in depth: The aesthetic of Birdy's is one of the most unique I have ever seen anywhere. It's a good take on a 70s vibe with some nice warm lighting, they also have an adorable little shop in the back too. As for the food, we got their buttered bread board. They had a few different flavored butters to try on their in house made bread. Honestly as a starter it turned out to be pretty on point . I would recommend it as a solid starter for any group going here The main entree I got was the New York steak. Which turned out to not even be the best thing on the plate(but it was good). And you may say, "hey how can you order a steak and it's not the best thing on the plate?" Because they had some ASTONISHINGLY GOOD POTATOES! They had the perfect level of crispiness for both the normal and sweet potatoes. The biggest disappointment of the night was the peanut butter brownie. The reason for this was not because of how it tasted, it in fact tasted great, but it had the texture of a brownie that had been sitting out for a few hours and tossed in the microwave for 5 seconds. Short to say the brownie wasn't warm at all which kinda dampened the experience. All in all I'd say this is the only "modern-bar" experience in town, the food was good and there social aspect is more of what you'd expect in a downtown city bar. 4/5

    GO HERE! It has a retro, modern vibe with an upscale feel but not prices. Amazing, healthier food…read moreoptions! Sat at the bar and learned so much from the great bartender about "the old Denny's" place. Even the owner told her experience about opening - they've been open 3 seasons. Some people dressed nice and fancy, while others were in Patagonia and sweatshirts with a cap. They take all kinds. The food was amazing! Loved it all - clean plate club here. Even scrapped the cheese of the lobster Mac bowl with the bread from the burrata. Easy parking, just outside of town. GO HERE! Hint: Check out the women's bathroom.
