    Super cool entrance.
    Joe M.

    Best drinks and service i had, by far, during our 4 day trip in Kanab. Jacob, the bartender, was excellent and gave us great drinks and recommendations. TRY A SMOKED OLD FASHION, you will not regret it. We also had mac n cheese bites and pork belly bites which were really good, dip them in bbq sauce and ask for a side of Chipotle sauce. The staff here is really nice and always willing to help. Can't recommend this place enough.

    The main bar!

    Food is amazing! Service is great definitely I must see place such an interesting place to come to so much to see and there's a museum to look at! It's pretty epic! Take your time to eat an amazing meal and look at some cool stuff Ppl . Old world ambience definitely western!

    10/10 Spot, very very friendly atmosphere. Julz was a PEACHHHH. she told us where and what do to around the city and gave us amazing food. From the greeting to the food all the way to leaving was an amazing amazing time. If you are passing by you HAVE to stop here even if it's for a beer. I can say that i will forever be going here till the day i die. Thank you!!!!

    Brisket burger  and Mac n cheese YUM
    Trisha R.

    I'm not really a 5 star sort of diner bc I feel like the minute you recommend a place someone first and doesn't have quite the same experience. But this time around I have to give this place 5 stars. Cut straight to the chase - the food was really damn good. I hate paying for bbq bc it's always over priced and I can cook it at home for a faction of the cost but this place was really reasonably priced it made eating bbq enjoyable. We started off with their pretzel platter (can't remember the name) but it came with 3 different types of sausages cut up that each had their own unique flavor profile and were all 3 great. I actually really liked the bison sausage. The pretzel was large and such great density. The plate could easily be a meal but get it as an appetizer to share and save room for a meal. If you like deviled eggs theirs are a must try. They actually smoke them and it gives them a great flavor. And they don't skimp with the filling. The Mac and cheese bites were delicious- warm and creamy on the inside and crunchy on the outside wish we had more. For the meal we tried the brisket burger which had a slice of brisket as thick as the burger patty and an onion ring in it. Great flavor and combination. Definitely making any old burger shine! We also ordered the two meat combo with a smoked chicken thigh with amazing flavor inside and out and the most tender tri tip (with caramelized onions) I have had anywhere. The only drawback back to the tri tip was it was served on the platter kinda in a spiral pile and it wasn't really appetizing looking for nice clean cuts of tri tip. But flavor wise it was spot on! For the sides we had Mac n Cheese which were a white creamy cheese and SO good, mashed potatoes which were so creamy and buttery smooth, thick cut potato chips with flake salt that are SO good, coleslaw which was just ok really nothing to write home about, and baked beans. I wasn't a fan at all of the baked beans. They were more like Van de Kamp beans with some cut up pork belly in them. I would not recommend trying those unless they change the recipe. But if you like beans either way go for it. Our server Jacob who I think was the chef and clean up crew was great! So sweet and such a great person to chat with. The ambiance of the place was super fun and much nicer looking than any saloon they would have had back in the days. Upstairs is small but there are some games to play while waiting for your food and just an overall comfortable atmosphere. It is worth the little over an hour drive from St George to get there. The drive is beautiful. We are definitely looking forward to going back. I really want to try the tri tip sandwich and get another pretzel! Go for the food and as a bonus check out the museum - which we don't get to do, maybe next time! Keep up the awesome flavors and service!

    Smash burger with Mac and cheese

    This is such a cute little gem of a place! Just 7 miles outside of Kanab, has plenty of parking and even RV parking space. There's seating outside and inside, prices are pretty good and honestly the portions are good. My grandma and I shared the tri tip sandwich with the cowboy chips and my aunt had the smash burger with the Mac and cheese. We had the corn ribs appetizer and WOW! They're a must!! The ladies are very attentive and I was glad to support a small business keeping the history of Kanab as well as the US alive.

    Wow the food was too good best hamburgers and Mac and cheese! Good service and atmosphere !

The restaurant seemed clean. It was cute that they have like a little ghost town set up outside, they have a lot of seating inside and outside. The restrooms are outside...and heated! There is a door to go in to a gift shop in the same space as the entrance to the dining area. There was a group of us and our waitress was on top of it, had no problem splitting the checks and stayed organized so that she could easily do so! I'd love to give it 5 stars, but my brisket plate was just okay. Two small pieces, the mac and cheese was pretty simple, the toast was just not toasty...the slices of brisket I was given were good. And I did enjoy the sweet potato with cinnamon and brown sugar. My husband enjoyed his Frank Sinatra burger and fries. So we were not disappointed with Iron Horse at all, we just didn't walk away impressed either. Not much else in the area so with limited options they don't really need to go all out.

    This place was decent. I found a common theme in this city that the outside of the buildings look…read morereally cool and the interior is underwhelming. The food was all good. I enjoyed the smoked chicken, especially. The brisket was very tender. Service was kind and quick. No complaints. One odd thing is that me and another guest at the table both ordered an extra side of brisket to go along with our meals and they served it on the same platter. When it was about half gone and I had asked for my side, they said they put both portions on the same dish and that is just weird and made it awkward. However, they did bring me an extra little cup of brisket. Still odd that they would do that. The atmosphere was cool, but the live entertainment that night was singing very depressing songs which honestly just mismatched the vibe of the whole restaurant and ruined the mood. Happy I tried Iron Horse, but probably wouldn't come back between the odd service and the sad entertainment not matching with the expected vibe of the place. A lot of potential with this restaurant though.

    You remember those old Reese's Peanut Butter Cup commercials?…read more "Hey! You got your chocolate in my peanut butter!" "No, you got your peanut butter in my chocolate!" That's basically what happened here, except instead of chocolate and peanut butter, it was an art gallery and a gastropub. Somehow it works. The vibe here is funky in mostly the right ways. The decor has a yard sale chic aesthetic that's somehow carefully curated without looking like it tried too hard. The staff had just enough piercings and tattoos for me know they would love to talk to me about their record collections if I asked, and the whole place manages to feel both laid back and just upscale enough that you can justify ordering anything from a burger to what looked like a pretty respectable ribeye. I went with the Shroom, a portobello mushroom burger, and it was enjoyable. Tons of flavor, perfectly satisfying, and paired with one of the crispest side salads I've had in a while. Bonus points for the edamame. I will happily eat edamame in just about anything. Not with jello though. Everyone at our table enjoyed their meals, although we collectively demonstrated the adventurous spirit of a group that mostly ordered the Pub burger. So I can't claim we've fully explored the menu yet. This just gives me an excuse to come back. Service was friendly, attentive, and genuinely welcoming. The only moment that caught me a little off guard was when the owner stopped by to let us know he had baseball cards for sale in one part of the restaurant, along with an upstairs gallery featuring local artwork. I felt like he might next open his coat to show me some watches. He's just down for the hustle I guess. The art ranged from "that's pretty nice" to "someone really, really loves painting Utah's red rocks." Most of it was priced well beyond what I was looking to take home, but honestly, I have to respect that they're giving local artists a place to showcase their work. So maybe I'm just being a little grumpy. Get off my lawn. By the way I'd be happy to eat here again

Pistachio Chicken: The chicken breast was crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, with a thin, crispy crust that was especially impressive. The sauce blended the mild aroma of Poblano chili, the creamy richness of butter, and the unique fragrance of herbs. Most precious was the pistachio aroma, both vibrant and subtle, without overpowering or masking the other flavors, creating a delicate balance. Even the saltiness was just right, subtle and delicate. The surface was garnished with pico de gallo, fresh, sweet, tangy, and spicy, balancing the potential heaviness of the sauce. The asparaguses were also very fresh, with a natural fragrance, but perhaps a little too mild with the sauce. Kanab Cowboy Ribs: The pork ribs were slow-cooked and roasted until they were so tender that they easily fell off the bone, offering no resistance when cutting into them. The homemade barbecue sauce coated it thickly, rich and sweet, with an authentic American barbecue flavor. It might be a bit too sweet for most Chinese palates, but I thought it was quite good. The agave mustard vinaigrette seemed more decorative; I nearly couldn't really taste it. Lemon Sorbet: Homemade sorbet, offering the most soulful finish. It was breathtakingly beautiful at first glance; the simple white porcelain plate and glass were limpid and elegant, perfectly matching the sorbet's style. Unlike typical sorbets that emphasize extreme acidity, this restaurant took a different approach, with a gentle, even subtle, acidity that brings out the natural, lively fragrance of lemon, like Lolita's touch through pale silk. The texture was also delicate and smooth, without any ice crystals. Everyone was captivated; some even ordered an extra to take away. The restaurant claims that ingredients come from its organic garden. This might be a pointless gimmick, but the cooking and presentation of the dishes conveyed a consistent level of refinement and care, making it all the more valuable.

    I really, really hate giving negative reviews, but this place was just terrible. DO NOT GO HERE!…read moreWhen we arrived it was a little after 8 and the place closed at 9. I started to pick out a spot to sit while hubby started figuring out what to order, but there was an entire section roped off and it wasn't a very big dining area (or store) to start with. So I picked a spot where we could sit (no booths) and went up to help hubby order. The worker (who I later realized was the only one in the store at that time) asked whether we planned on getting our food to go or eating in, and when we said the latter he said we only had a half hour to eat before he would have to close. While I was placing my order the worker yelled at me for leaning on the glass food overlay. I didn't even realize I had done it and it had barely moved, but I apologized profusely. He continued to be gruff, rude and just generally unhappy with both of us and another family (German, I believe) who had stopped in about the same time. He didn't seem to want to take any time to explain the bread options, topping options, cheese options, etc., put the basic ingredients on the sandwich that the menu board said it came with, ring up drinks, anything. I approached him later after the other family had left and we were done eating and said I was sorry to hear that he was so unhappy with his job. He didn't seem to get what I was saying. He said it's hard when you're the only person on the job shift and you have to close up. I said I certainly understood. But I don't think he realized how much of a huge jerk he was being to everyone in the store, and so unnecessarily. OK, so maybe your job sucks. Maybe you do a lot of menial, repetitive, hard physical labor and you don't get paid that great. But also excuse us for trying to eat something halfway healthy for a meal while on vacation. Next time we'll go to McDonalds where we at least get pleasant service with a smile.
