Strawberry ice
Jamie M.

Got a strawberry ice and it was so cute and perfect. A little pricey for how small it was but the flower shape was cute and the flavor was good. Service was fast and friendly! Plenty of seating outside of Zion outfitters to enjoy it. Perfect on a 100 degree day in Springdale!

Lemon and guava large ice
Phyllis F.

After a long hike in the narrows, desert ice was the perfect treat. We got the large which allows you to have 2 flavors. They layered the 2 flavors and made it look like a rose. We got guava and lemon ice. Both were delicious. Best guava ice that I've had

Truck

The perfect treat to cool off after a fun day in the park. The staff was kind and the service was fast, all from a super cute truck. The ice had an ideal texture and the flavors were spot on--highly recommend mixing lemon and strawberry!

Delicious. Some of the best shaved ice I've ever had! Don't pass them up.

Delicious! Best shaved ice I think I've ever had. Don't pass it by! All flavors were so good.

Yummy almost sorbet type ice cream place. Their menu is simple and refreshing! We got the chocolate flavor, guava, mango, strawberry from the ice options and then we also added the vanilla ice cream option. The vanilla ice cream wasn't really an ice cream though (it does say dairy free) so that could be the reason it tasted a little like play doh (IMO). Regilar size was $5.25 I believe and large was $6.25, add $1 extra for ice cream. Overall was very refreshing and this beautiful Zion day.

I've lived in Philly for 20 years and water ice, or locally pronounced "wooder ice", is treated as an essential for our life, and a crucial part of the calendar from St Patrick's to Halloween. John's Water Ice in S Philly is my hands down favorite, but boy did this delicious recipe make me change my rankings You must go to Zion AND you must have this water ice. Otherwise, I'm sorry

Theeeeeeee best. Very friendly staff. Can't get enough of the view while you enjoy your shaved ice. We went back the next day before leaving Zion.

This was a fantastic impromptu dinner after a long day of hiking and the place we planned to eat…read morewas closed - what fortune! We didn't have a reservation but were happy to wait. Once seated, their floor to ceiling windows highlighted Zions majestic peaks as the sun was going down and rain was coming in heavily. Everyone was pleasant, and our server, Tyler, was exceptional! He definitely showed genuine interest in all the tables he was serving, and remembered us by calling us by the name of the places we were from, definitely a unique experience. Tyler for MVP and management material! Now, let's get to the food! Between my husband and myself we shared everything. Tomato soup with Gruyère toast was the perfect portion size, hearty and not tangy or sour some it can sometimes be. Bruschetta was our favourite of the night. The heirloom tomatoes were a perfect choice for this minimal flavour-bomb. We don't usually order pepperoni pizza, but thoroughly enjoyed it. The bread on all counts was superb and recommend this restaurant for anyone visiting Zion or lucky to be living nearby.

Nice and clean Italian place in Zion. Service was amazing and food was delicious…read more Spicy crab squid ink pasta bucatini was cooked perfectly, with huge chunks of crab. It was great! Elk bolognese- didn't have the gamey taste from gamey and loved how saucy it was. Also great ! Chocolate cake was huuge. It was decadent and rich. The fresh berries complemented well with the dessert

This was one of the best places I dined during my visit to Cedar City, Utah. I came with a group of…read morefriends and we ordered two wood fired pizzas and two large salads with several adult beverages. I ordered the Fennel Sausage Pizza, which came with "Hand crushed tomato sauce, house made fennel sausage, aged and smoked mozzarella, parmigiano-reggiano." (Centro Woodfired Pizzeria, 2026). It was a delicious pizza. The crust was very well made with a light crispiness and a good chew. The sauce offered a great balance between acidity and sweetness. The fennel sausage was good, but it was noticeably missing that great fennel flavor. It was very subtle and missing the actual fennel seeds in the sausage, that I am accustomed too. Overall, it was a great pizza and I would order it again. The arugula salad that I ordered was on point. It came with a generous amount of fresh arugula, shaved Parmesan cheese, sliced prosciutto, and a delicious house made lemon basil vinaigrette. All the flavors played well together. I liked that they did not over dress the salad, which allowed the other flavors to independently shine. I would certainly order this salad again. My friends ordered the Gorgonzola Salad, which was also great. They certainly did not hold back on the cheese and bacon. They also ordered a custom pie. They loved it. The service was quite welcoming and amiable. I liked the conversation and positive attitudes of the employees. They offer comfortable inside seating. This place is definitely worth the visit when one is in town.

I've been working my way through Cedar City's gyro offerings this year. This is #4 I've tried. He reported that his pizza was perfect and tasted exactly as expected (& anticipated). My Gyro pizza naturally tasted just like a gyro should. It comes with all the standard gyro ingredients: spiced gyro meat, red onion on a pizza crust coated with red sauce and light mozzarella. The pizza-y sauce and mozzarella stayed in the background and let the greek side takeover. The feta cheese, tzatziki sauce and fresh tomatoes are added on top after baking. I asked for no tomatoes (don't like them fresh/uncooked). After 2 pieces I had my fill of the gyro pizza. I was losing track of the individual gyro flavors by that time. (I think I had the same flavor overload while trying the Greek pizza). Hope it will reheat well tomorrow but there might be a culinary reason they wait to put the tzatziki sauce & feta on after baking. The pizza crust here is as good as a pita to carry the greek gyro fixings to my mouth. Always have encountered friendly staff here and Kenedy P at the counter was efficient in taking our order. Love the little outdoor patio since we usually bring our dog. Wow they are ready to cook a lot of pizzas with all the firewood that's stacked up there! Yum yum. Can't wait but I'll either go back to my prior "usual " of a Margheroni or try another of their tasty offerings.

We were greeted by friendly staff when we arrived, the ambiance is amazing inside an old building, well lit. We ordered seafood scampi and chicken Marsala. The Marsala came with mashed potatoes that are AMAZING, I mean I love mashed potatoes but honestly these were incredible. My Marsala was a tad lacking on flavor but was still delicious. I ate all of it. My other half preferred the scampi which was boasting with all kinds of seafood he almost licked the plate clean. Waitress was prompt, friendly, fun. The place was getting busy for a midweek dining experience but did not lack anything. Saw some friendly faces we knew that were also eating there. Highly recommend this place, lots of choices. I will be trying the steak on our next visit! It looked amazing and so many people were ordering it. Go there eat inside or outside, enjoy some wine and bread while you're waiting for your meal.
