We really enjoyed this restaurant and are glad that we got there early before the crowds. I had the watermelon salad and it was the most refreshing salad I have ever had. The juices from the watermelon and berries dripped down over the lettuce and a dressing was not even needed. My husband had a Salmon salad and grand kids had Chicken and Waffles. Some of the other dishes looked quite heavy so I was happy with my special salad. read more

The food here is exceptional! We had Zac as our server and gave excellent customer service. I walked by the kitchen on the way to the bathroom and hits my ocd qualifications. It is super clean and bathrooms were clean! I highly recommend for locals and out of towners! read more

We were going to Lake Powell and visited this cafe before. Food was perfect, ambiance is good, but service! The server forgot to bring us 1 meal (we were waiting for 30 minutes until we realized that it was not going to be prepared (server had required amount of portions on the notes, but not on the receipt for the kitchen). She also brought us the wrong drink, so we thought that it was the right one and later we got what we ordered. Were confused a little bit and after we were charged for both of them. We ordered 2 coffee mocha, we've got 1 instead. I had to ask here about one more and then I got latte :( Had to ask redo it to mocha. AND THE LAST but not the least - they didn't tell us about "BIG PARTY CHARGE" - it's 18% by the way. So many questions to management and no questions at all to the kitchen. read more

When in Page, Arizona - eat here! A mix of traditional Navajo recipes and flavors with all the options a group of traveler would want. The trash can nachos are whimsically served with a can. The fry bread is excellent and the desserts should not be missed! Thanks to our local guide Yermo who recommended this spot! read more

Great food! I ordered the oxtail with Mac and cheese, kids cheese pizza, side of fry bread, and classic burger. Solid food. I originally wanted the Navajo beef stew but they stopped offering it. The ox tail was a pretty good substitute. The meat was tender and had good flavor. It came with some sauced vegetables. The Mac and cheese was a hit with my kids. The cheese pizza was well made and very cheesy. The burger was a little lacking and dry. Perhaps a light sauce would help. The fries were good too. Overall, solid meal and would come back again. W I wish I could've tried the desserts. Great service too by Shandin. read more

We ate breakfast here twice while we stayed in Page. Great little place. Fast service, people are really friendly and happy, and the food was amazing. First morning we had the huevos rancheros and ham and Gruyère omelette. Nice twist and great flavors on the huevos rancheros. The second breakfast I got the omelette again and my husband tried the sweet potato waffles. Wow! Very sweet but best treat waffles I've had. I also took some smoothies to go. The berry one was thick and not overly sweet. The green machine had just enough mango! If you are in the area for breakfast, skip the free hotel breakfast and visit this place! read more

This place a nice surprise, with offering from the Navajo Nation, the South, and a little from everywhere else! We've been growing tired of the same burger and fries on the road and craved something more healthy when daughter suggested this place. Turned out to be a true delight. The Hawaiian salmon salad is fresh and refreshing and so so yummy! We also had the crepes with steak and arugula and I loved the contrast btw the crepes and the tasty steak! I wished I had ordered the oxtail but no more room in my stomach! What a gem! read more

The place is super busy. Our party waited for a long time for a table. The service was bad. We needed to ask around for the server to place an order after a long wait. When we were done, we needed to wait for the server to finish her casual talking with the guests at another table before we can get our bill. Hope the training of the servers will improve at this place. The food here is good though. Prices are reasonable too. Fried okra (3.5/5): I don't find this appetizer often at other restaurants so I want to give this a try. The batter was just right. It was still crispy when it was served. Butternut squash soup (3.5/5): The taste is a little bit bland but I like its creaminess. Chicken wings (4/5): I love the flavor and the tenderness of the chicken wings. I would like to have more after finished the dish. Oxtail entree (4/5): The portion is general really good with the price. It marinated well for the flavor of the oxtail which I like. It served with Mac & Cheese and Zucchini which I love the combination. Meat loaf entree (3/5): The taste of the meatloaf is just ok compared with the oxtail entree. I don't think I will order this again. This place is not a bad choice for food if you care less of the service. :) read more

You definitely have to try their Navajo bread. It is so good! We ordered an extra side of just the bread for $3.50, and it comes on a huge plate. ​I'd probably skip the Spam fried rice, though. It's $22 a plate and the portion is okay but not shareable my 11-year-old finished the whole thing himself! If you're craving fried rice, you're better off at a Chinese spot. On the other hand, the smoked tri-tip Reuben is a winner and comes with a side of fries. read more

Very good breakfast and lunch spot. Simple diner vibes, very local feel. The food is very good and the menu has a lot of really great options. Went twice and both occasions had a very tasty meal. The servers were very friendly each time as well. read more

We were here for lunch, it seems to be a very popular place, even at 11:15, it's quite a good amount of customers inside. We were seated and ordered immediately. I got the shrimp taco and he got the flatbread. It's a little wait until the food comes out, but it totally worth the wait. Everything is better than we expected, so I'm giving a full 5 stars! read more

We were lucky enough to find this Gem our first morning in Page. We were coming back from a morning hike and arrived about 1030am. They serve breakfast till 11am. At 11am they switch over to lunch. The menu is large, diverse, and the food all delicious! Or server day one, left a small pot of coffee for me. The second day, the server didn't. We were in main dining room both days in a large comfy booth. They have 3 dining rooms plus a Bar-Lounge area. Next time i am here, I will get the Croque Madame again. Its Devine!! The oxtail was super flavorful, but messy. The restrooms are in back, past the kitchen. I imagine when the restaurant is packed, that hallway is busy!! read more

We were pleasantly surprised by the quality of Rustic Thistle. We had just finished an Antelope Canyon tour and found this place nearby.

Came here for brunch on a Saturday around 1pm with a group of six. We were told it would be a 15-20 minute wait, even though there were plenty of tables open. After about 30 minutes they asked if we'd want to squeeze into a booth... The booths are huge so we had no problem fitting, but it was annoying we had to wait all that time for nothing. Once we got seated, the experience improved. Our server was helpful and quick, and our food ended up coming out pretty quickly. One note: if you want breakfast, make sure to get here early. They were no longer offering breakfast by the time we sat, and I think the waitress mentioned they stop serving it at 11. I really wanted breakfast, but ended up getting the grilled chicken plate with rice and veggies. The chicken portion was large, and pretty flavorful, although a bit overcooked. The rice was delicious, but the vegetables were horrible and lacked seasoning. Overall a decent option, but not a place I'd return to. read more

Ok WOW!!! Phoenix residents visiting the beautiful page and we didn't expect to have one of the best breakfasts ever! Husband and I had breakfast here on Friday morning, greeted and seated right away! The service was kind and very quick! Additionally the location is very clean and cozy. We ate the Oxtail Skillet, Cajun Fried Chicken Benny and a side of cheesy grits. WOOOOW!!! I'm not even the biggest fan of oxtail but it was so savory, juicy, and tender - we were both blown away! The fried chicken was flavorful and tender, but the buttermilk biscuit is the hero here! Everything came together so nicely! Why aren't we eating this version of Benedict more often?! We both can't get over that flaky and delicious biscuit. The grits were a little bland, not our preference, but glad we tried it. We also had to vanilla lattes, also fast, yummy, and hit the spot. Don't sleep on Rustic Thistle - so good!!! read more

Very clean establishment with sweet workers. I was in the mood for soup and salad when I found this gem of a spot. I ordered the mahi mahi with couscous salad (special of the day) and butternut squash soup. My fiancé ordered the beet salad, pork belly buns, chili with fry bread (not included in picture, but the bread was the same size as the plate) and a drink called the phoenix. Total was $102 for everything with the drink being $15-16. Everything is made in house, only complaint was the pork belly sauce being a little salty. read more

Casual diner. The chili with the flatbread was amazing. The chili was so flavorful, and the fry bread was incredible to dip in it. Skip everything else. The Navajo tacos are just the fry bread with their chili, lettuce, tomatoes, onion and a little cheese on top. I prefer just dipping the fry bread into the chili because the bread will stay crispy. The oxtail flatbread was nothing special. Sadly, the gumbo was really unappetizing, as the rue was extremely thick and flavorless. read more

We were sat in the upper level for a late lunch. Before we got our food, they were bleaching the tables, putting chairs up right next to us and sweeping all around us! I asked if they would like us to move, but they said no, (plenty of room in the lower level to seat the 2 of us out of their way) and brought our food to eat while employees repeatedly walked by waiting for us to finish. Decided to just ask for check and get out of their way, and no bill was presented, just a total to sign for after she read what was on it... I asked to see the itemized bill because it did not add up to what I had estimated and there were charges added that she did not read off. Not cool. The food was good, but the rest of the experience certainly left a bad taste. We will choose somewhere else on our next trip through. read more

Solid brunch spot! We were seated right away on a weekend morning. We love hash, and theirs was pretty good. The way the hash was served was new to me, and after having two big hunks, I prefer it chopped and mixed in. The vibe was cozy and the staff were friendly. I wouldn't mind stopping in again the next time I'm in Page. read more

Have you ever in your life had a burger with fry bread? Let me tell you that it could possibly be a life altering experience! The Navajo Burger was delicious!! For my friends on a personal health journey you 100% could split this with a second person or take the other half with you. I ate the whole thing! I did not eat for the rest of the day! I even hiked Horseshoe Bend afterwards! For my other people who like a boozy brunch they do have Bloody Mary's and Mimosas plus a full bar. The staff was great and the food was fantastic! It's in a strip mall so there is plenty of parking. read more

I enjoyed a chicken berry salad after going on an Antelope Canyon tour. The veggies were very fresh and the salad was satisfying with the chicken, walnuts, and feta in addition to the berries. My wife enjoyed the Navajo taco, which was fry bread with chili on top. The service was good, if just a little slow during the busy lunch rush. Definitely worth a stop if you are in the area. read more

Service = 4 Stars! Food = 2 Stars Burger was supposed to be 9 oz, but seemed well short of that and wasn't the best. The "bowl" dish wasn't what we expected from what is typically called a bowl, like something with vegetables, it was just food that could have been on a plate but it was just put in a bowl. The BLT was decent, I'd say go with that. We got there a little later and they were all out of frybread which was what we really wanted. Bar = 1 Star! No decent beer on tap or bottled beer. read more

No complaints whatsoever. We got the sausage breakfast burrito and split it and it was the perfect size. I really loved that it was not even remotely Greasier than a burrito should be. Yet the potatoes were perfect and soft. Our server was super nice and sweet and the dining room was clean and cute. read more

We had such a lovely time at Rustic Thistle! Service was so friendly and kind. My 3 year old wanted "animal pancakes" which is not on the menu, but our server made the note and our kids slammed all of their pancakes and eggs. (So thank you Rustic Thistle for that!) my chicken and waffles was delicious and a very generous portion. The chicken tenders were perfect cooked and super moist. The coffee was also very good. Dark, which we love. And the establishment is so clean. My friend and I whole live and lived here, we all agreed it is such a refreshing new place to eat breakfast and now my favorite breakfast place to stop. read more

I went to the restaurant on Mother's Day when it opened. Menu looks good. Served was friendly and attentive. I have the avocado toast. It was good. Very generous portion of avocado., with I arugula I love. The sunny side up egg was perfect. The sour onions should been regular onion. The sour taste didn't go with it. The omelet was good. It would have tasted better if the ingredients are mixed in with the eggs instead of just fold the eggs over. Over all the foods taste good. We enjoyed the breakfast on Mother's Day read more

After the good reviews we were quite a bit disappointed in the Rustic Thistle on a recent trip to Page. We went for dinner and it was clear immediately that they must do the majority of their business in the breakfast/lunch hours. The interior was set up to be sunny and bright and suited for brunching, and it was way too bright and "hotel lobby" like for dinner. We sat in the bar because it had the most "dinner" vibe. We had looked at the menu before arriving and had ideas of what we wanted. One of our party wanted something that apparently had been on the lunch menu. She asked for it and they said they would not make it. My primary reason for choosing the Rustic Thistle was that I wanted to try the Navajo taco. I am not sure if the construction is the same everywhere, but I read from the reviews that their Navajo taco here is their fry bread topped with chili and some other toppings. Because I wanted to try the fry bread specifically, I ordered it deconstructed with the chili and toppings on the side. This worked out great and everyone was able to try a bit of the fry bread. It was really delicious and the best thing anyone at the table had for dinner. The chili was good too, but I was a little disappointed in the combo of the chili and the fry bread. I expected more and was glad I had gotten them separate. Others at my table had the jamaican beef patties (ok, filling was very mushy and we were concerned about why it had the "undercooked meat" start next to it on the menu). nachos, fried okra (bland and strangely served with plain mayo for dipping), shrimp and grits, salmon bowl, chicken fried steak, and the squash soup. Everything was ok but not great. I got a lot of grief since I was the one who chose this restaurant. Page doesn't seem to have much of a fine dining scene so I think you are better off sticking with the fast-casual places and not expecting too much. It was a decent meal but nothing but the fry bread really made it worth the visit. read more

Food was delicious and service was great too! Can tell this is a place where the locals go, by seeing several come in and the employees knowing them by name.

I recently traveled to Page, Arizona from Virginia with my family and the next morning woke up and had breakfast at the Rustic Thimble. We had no real expectations though we saw it had good ratings only, as did the restaurant we had dinner at the night before, which turned out to be fine. The Rustic Thimble is well above "fine" though. The place is bright, the vibe is positive, the staff were pleasant, the menu and the food were very good, and above all - we all had a good meal and a great start to the day. It was a diamond in the rough where my wife and I - and my parents - all agreed it was a very special place. We spoke to the hostess and manager on the way out and gave them our kudos, plaudits and praise for being such a nice experience on a very unsuspecting morning. Locally owned and of the utmost quality, I highly recommend the Rustic Thistle. If I ever find myself in the area again, we'll definitely be back. BTW - we had coffee, orange juice, the grits with fresh and dried fruit, the chicken & waffles with the hot honey, a side of turkey bacon, and an omelet. All recommended. read more

We came here with our dog as it states pets are allowed on both google and apple maps, only to find out that is incorrect. It was fine as our dog is a trained service animal, however the hostess wouldn't seat us unless we showed her our dog's "paperwork". Per ADA guidelines staff cannot demand registration papers or require a special ID tag. You are only permitted to ask if the animal is a service dog and what task they are trained to perform. We kindly showed our dog's credentials and let the hostess know this was not necessary and best not to ask future patrons for this. She said the manager required her to ask. Our meal was good otherwise, but management should take note of ADA requirements to avoid a possible lawsuit in the future. read more
