    This is one of the breakfast locations in Moab that is rated highly so we came here around 8:30am on a Wednesday. There are 2 dining areas inside - head over to the hostess stand and get your name added to the list on their automated system. You will be texted when your seat is ready and you can watch your status as you wait thru the url texted to you when you first check in. I loved knowing where we were in line at any time - very efficient. We were seated in 6 minutes and our server greeted us shortly after. We ordered regular coffee, the Cinnamon Roll (it's huge) and the Waffle meal which included eggs and bacon and we added fruit. The coffees came right away followed by the cinnamon roll. We had a few minutes to enjoy that when our breakfast arrived. Everything tasted great! The cinnamon roll did not have frosting on it but that was okay because there was a lot of cinnamon sugar in its layers. The waffles are not real Belgian but they were fresh, light, and fluffy. The bacon is super thick - very tasty. The restaurant decor looks fairly recent and the vibe is casual and laid back. Come as you are and enjoy a great breakfast!

    The best breakfast we had over our whole trip. Fresh and tasty! We had amazing service and enjoyed our visit. Loved my breakfast bowl. It was perfection.

    Big 'ol cinnamon roll
    J N.

    This was recommended to us by a local & it lived up to the hype. The southwest bowl was delicious, & big enough for two to share. And the cinnamon roll was spectacular! Also big enough to share...maybe 4 ways! Definitely recommend & would come back!

    Cute restaurant

    The beef chimichuri on greens with balsamic dressing really hit the spot. Our server, Sean was super friendly and took great care of us and all his tables. It's a cute place and a great way to start the day in Arches

    Cobb salad
    Malia P.

    The line is long but it moves quickly. Lunch is served all day, I ordered a Cobb salad however their veggies aren't that fresh. A few slices of their cucumbers look spoiled and there was a wrinkly tomato. Must try their bacon . My waitress said they are sourced from a local market at Salt Lake City. It's thick and has good fat to meat ratio. Service is great, their parking lot is small but plenty of street parking.

    We got three breakfasts at Cactus Jacks. Unfortunately, all of them were cold and dry. The eggs were fine but it felt like it was good way before we ordered it. I liked the bacon most out of everything because it felt like it was the only freshly made item. The vibe is nice and the decor is cool. We also got a hot mocha with the breakfast which was great! I would not go there for a full breakfast. Maybe just coffee and a snack for me.

    Beware Huge cinnamon roll that can feed 6 people. Standard bkfast fare. No complaints. A bit expensive for 3 tiny avocado slices

    Biscuits and gravy - very good
    Dawn K.

    This place is popular and busy, and there's a reason why, it's delicious!! There's not many breakfast places in Moab, and I'm so happy we stopped by! Everyone loved what they ordered! Huevos rancheros with chicken fried steak, it's a crazy combo, but my son loved it! The southwest bowl add chorizo, so much flavor, and the perfect portion size! So good! Biscuits and gravy - flaky biscuit, yummy gravy, very well done. Flapjack breakfast was perfection, fluffy pancakes, perfectly cooked bacon, the only complaint was the scrambled eggs, they were slightly rubbery, like they came out of a carton. Overall, we will eat here whenever we're in Moab!

    Fish tacos and waffle fries
    Tricia S.

    Food was really good. It was very busy at lunch which is always a good sign! We barely had any leftovers to take home!

    This place was recommended to us by our BASE jumping guide (shoutout to Matt with Tandem BASE Moab) and it did not disappoint. The portions are so generous and everything was reasonably priced -- not to mention, everything was delicious. Earl is right. The parking situation is quite crowded, and we parked on a side street nearby. Our server was great, and the restaurant wasn't too noisy!

    Just amazing
    Alfie S.

    This is a wonderful place for breakfast We stayed at the gravity House and looked for breakfast, this place is seriously amazing!! Great fast service and food is amazing

    Cinnamon roll
    Anna P.

    A friend and I stopped here for breakfast/brunch on our return from watching the sunrise at Arches. It was only 10:30 but we'd been awake since 4'ish and I was in need of food and caffeine. We were seated right away and our server was wonderful. I opted for B&G's while my friend ordered tacos. Both huge portions and delicious. I ordered fresh jalapeños and was given a grilled or fried one too (surprisingly not spicy - almost sweet and so good). The coffee was so good. Sofa king good. Perfect experience. OH, and we split a cinnamon roll that was the size of our heads. They're open every dang day according to the sign and if I was local, this would be a go-to for me!

    Fried ravioli
    Megan Y.

    You know when you crave brunch, this is what you want and need. Sounds like locals prefer this spot over other locations closer to the center of Main St. I started my meal here solo but was later joined by a friend. Everything I ordered was great and not greasy. I took the ravioli to-go since I was so full. Wish I could've had a second meal here.

    The pizza here was amazing and exceeded our expectations! We were starving from an Arches hike so…read morefor a group of 4, we ordered the pistachio pizza, provola pizza, and meat lovers. They were a hit! Be warned: these are not personal pizzas; this can easily be shared with 2-3 people. We also got 2 salads (their mozzarella and bread on the side is delightful) and a pasta alla bolognese. But the pizza is the real star of the show here: they handmake it in front of you, put it in the woodfire oven, and serve it to you fresh.

    We were pretty excited to see a Neapolitan pizza and pasta restaurant in Moab. The reviews looked…read moresolid, and from what I remembered from our last visit many years ago, there were not many pizza options in town. We ordered the Salsiccia e Funghi, a sausage and mushroom pizza, along with the mussels in white wine sauce appetizer, homemade Italian cream sodas, and one additional limonata soda. The pizza was okay, but not the quality I would expect from a polished Neapolitan-style pizza place, especially at this price point. The mussels appetizer had potential because white wine sauce is exactly the kind of dish we usually enjoy with bread. Before ordering, I specifically asked about the bread because we like having enough to sop up the broth, the way you would expect at a good Italian restaurant. Our waitress said she would bring as much bread as we wanted. There were three of us, and the appetizer came with three pieces of bread. Given the earlier conversation, we later asked for three more pieces. The request seemed to bother her. When she delivered the extra bread, sensing her frustration, we said she could add it to the bill, and she told us she already had. That was frustrating because we had just discussed it before ordering. We were attempting to be more gracious, and she missed the mark with her response. She could have said ok, or thank you, or "no it's ok I told you could have as much bread as you wanted for the mussels" The mussels themselves were also uneven. Several had not opened during cooking, which is generally a sign that they should not be served or eaten. With mussels, the usual food-safety rule is: if they do not open during cooking, do not eat them. The FDA's consumer seafood guidance says clams, mussels, and oysters should open during cooking, and the ones that do not open should be thrown out. That made us question the quality control and preparation of the dish. The cream sodas were mixed. The berry version was delicious, but the mango version missed the mark. It was not sweet at all and tasted like the mango may not have been ripe. A little simple syrup, or ripe mango, would have helped a lot. The unripe mango soda ends up tasting a little like pine sol smells. We were also disappointed because the prices were more in line with what we would expect from a higher-quality meal. For the items noted above, plus one additional limonata soda, the meal came to over $60. I typically tip over 20%, but I took the extra bread charge off the tip, and the tip was still over 17%. Overall, this was not a terrible experience, but it was disappointing compared with what we were hoping for. The food had some good ideas, but several details felt off, and the service created a communication gap that left a bad impression.
