The service was attentive but not overbearing. We ordered the beet salad, wedge salad, and the ribeye. They started us off with a amuse bouche which was really tasty. The salads were incredible. The bacon on the wedge salad was to die for. We really liked the rib eye as well, only wish it was a tad more seasoned but I think our palates are a lil on the salty side. Overall great experience and a must stop if you're in the area!

My BF had the Piccadillo burrito minus the cheese, with local spiced ground beef, pickled jalapeños & carrots, and he really enjoyed. We also got a side of fries which were very good, skin on. This is a charming place, you order from the cute cottage and collect your food from the turquoise blue chevy Bluebird bus. We sat outside on the patio with shade from a converted barn like shed. Service was great as well. Would highly recommend this place. There also a cute little gift shop with lovely local art and clothing on sale.

The potatoes were perfectly seasoned & the raspberry jam was house made & so delicious. The bacon was perfectly crisp.

They got wifi and lots of tables. With the good food and cappuccino, I couldn't ask for anything else. Just order up front and they'll bring you the goods. Biscuits and Gravy: Get Gravy was creamy, savory, and rich. Biscuits were fluffy and moist. Eggs and potatoes were okay but didn't bother me. For a small town like Torrey, this was an amazing stop when heading through to Capitol Reef or after a good hike (if you get here early enough because they closed at 2pm when I was there) Food: 8/10 Service: 6/10 Atmosphere: 8/10 Price: 7/10

Anyway, this visit, we ventured out of our lodging and wanted a lovely breakfast. We saw Waffles and Wildflowers and popped in for a visit. A darling little cafe, they had a menu of waffle options, and probably coffee ones. I don't pay much attention to coffee variations, I like mine simple. BUT I had regular coffee here (maybe it was in the french press?) and it was the BEST coffee we had the whole trip. We chose a table outside, and there was still a bit of shade for us to enjoy. I ordered the savory waffle, it had goat cheese, sundried tomatoes, mixed greens and it was heavenly! My husband ordered the same but with fried chicken and that was DIVINE. I'm sure they had sweet waffles too, but I love a savory breakfast. Definitely pop in for a fantastic cup of joe and a yummy waffle!

I believe this is part of a hotel or lodge, but they do have a small waffle menu and coffee. Parking is limited in the front, but it's not too busy. There is indoor and outdoor seating and very cute and aesthetic inside. The cook and person at the front were very welcoming and friendly. I didn't love the coffee as they only had regular brew. However, their waffles AMAZING. They are famous for their chicken and waffles, which is what I got. This is already a fan favorite for me so I instantly knew but this was by far one of the best chicken and waffles I've ever had. The chicken was moist and the batter they used to fry it not only tasted fresh, but homemade. It was crispy but lighter than usual, and it was packed with flavor. The waffle was also perfectly golden. My husband had the berry one and the berries were fresh with sugar. Super sweet and delicious. I also loved the portion size. It was just right, not too small and not too big. No left overs and perfectly filling. Also the honey siracha that came with the chicken and waffles is a must, it was the best sauce I've ever had, especially mixed with the syrup!! Absolutely recommend before hiking in Escalante!

Circle of Destination (Circle D) Restaurant is a HIDDEN TREASURE in the middle of the quiet town,…read moreEscalante. It is part of the Circle D Motel next door. My family stopped by here and our way to the National Parks and are so glad that we did. As my dad said, "this was the best meal of our trip so far", comparing it to fine dining in Seattle. Circle D is a relatively small establishment overall, and so we had to wait for a table for about 20 minutes or so. The owners and a young waitress whom they had hired a couple weeks before were the only front staff. All of them were very friendly. As far as the food, we ordered the smoked tuna Niçoise salad, the bone-in pork chop, and the lemon chicken. We also had the truffle fries for an appetizer. The TRUFFLE FRIES were super flavorful and packed with umami flavors. The cheese was perfectly melted on top giving it an extra rich and savory flavor. The SMOKED TUNA NICOISE SALAD was also excellent. The fish had a well-rounded smoky taste and the salad was HUGE. All of the vegetables were extremely fresh and crisp; they included tomato, avocado, red radish, green beans, and olives. While the smoked fish was the star of the dish, the baked potato was by far the BEST baked potato I've had in my life- crisp and browned on the outside and soft in the inside. The BONE-IN PORKCHOP was the highlight of the dishes. I don't normally like porkchop as I usually find it too dry but this one was super moist. The apple and parsnip compote was BOMB. This is the must-get dish if you come. The LEMON CHICKEN was wonderfully tender and came with the amazing potatoes as described above and fresh green beans. It had prominent olive and lemon flavors and reminded me of the chicken my mom bakes in the oven at home. The atmosphere is cozy; and homely. They have about 10 tables in total or so. It is clean and they have an open patio if you want to dine outside. Overall: 5/5 for food, 5/5 for service, 5/5 for atmosphere
