We have friends who have been trying to get us to come here for years. We finally made it tonight and we instantly regretted not making it sooner. First of all we had our two kids with us and they immediately brought out a plate of apples for them to start snacking on. Very thoughtful and helpful. It kept them busy until we ordered and appetizers were brought out. I ordered the biscuits, the brussels sprouts, and the chicken confit. I couldn't eat the biscuits but my husband and kids devoured them. They looked incredible. I will be dreaming about the brussels sprouts until I return. My husband and I both agreed they were the best we've ever had. The chicken was great too- would have preferred white meat and additional sauce but still good. We loved our meal and look forward to making this place a regular when in town! read more

Wood Ash Rye - Chicken Confit - New American Near Me - St. George, Utah

My third time at WAR. Food has been excellent each meal. This time I sat at the bar and the service was great. Ambiance is always great too as the restaurant has a great vibe. I had the beet salad with poached pear. It was really delicious and was a great combination on the taste buds. Then I had the confit chicken (boned in). It had great flavor and was cooked perfectly. The slaw was also good. If you go to WAR, you must get the biscuits. They will complement almost any meal. Also, my drink was the WAR Tan. I've had it before and it was delicious again! read more

We were really disappointed with our experience. We came to this restaurant based on a friend's recommendation and called ahead, where we were told they couldn't accommodate our party of 9 together but could seat us as two tables of 4 and 5. We appreciated that effort. However, when we arrived, we were initially told they only had one table available. They eventually made it work so we could sit at two separate tables, which we were grateful for--but the issues didn't end there. We were seated at 2:00 PM and didn't receive our food until 3:18 PM, despite ordering promptly. My husband's meal arrived first, and he ended up eating alone while the rest of us waited another 30 minutes for our food. Meanwhile, we were told multiple times that dishes come out based on order timing, yet we watched another group seated after us receive their food before we did. The wait became so long that our teenage children left after an hour and a half to head home. We truly value both good food and good service, but this experience fell short on the service side. Spending nearly $400--along with a mandatory 20% gratuity--left us feeling very unsatisfied. Ultimately the server lowered our bill, but that was after an argument. I'm never one to complain but this was over the top. I expected more from a Marriott Bonvoy property. read more

What a little gem for food in St. George! With scratch-made biscuits and jam, you must start with those. Honestly the regular bread and butter was fantastic as well. As a group of 8, we were able to order a bunch of items and they were all so tasty and delicious. The pork belly tostadas didn't present as though they'd be good, but I promise there were 10/10. The pollo asada fries and the creamed elote corn were both a huge hit with everyone, I swear I'd come back just for that corn. The broccolini and carrots were a super tasty veg. Although the cheesy potatoes were good on the first bite, the cheese hardened and didn't stick to any of the potatoes anymore, so I'd probably skip those next time. The chef graciously offered for us to try the corned beef and cabbage special on the house, and it was unbelievably good. It definitely turned some people into new corned beef lovers! The only "disappointing" dish was the nigiri, which came out as a cooked piece of salmon and was a misunderstanding amongst the table. We ordered the elk gnocchi but it was never delivered so we ended up cancelling that. (I'm not even sure I checked if they took that off the bill, but hopefully they did!) Since the meal was impressive, we thought we should try a few desserts too? The cookies/milk and the key lime pie were real winners, along with the homemade prickly pear and lime sorbet. Ashly was friendly and provided excellent service to our table. I wish the vibe was a little bit cozier, but I did ask for our chandelier above our table to be dimmed and that helped a lot! Overall, definitely recommend and would absolutely return if we make it back to St. George. read more

Food 5/5 Service 4/5 Cleanliness 5/5 Value 4/5 One of the best filets I've ever had! Another person in our party waited forever for their food, we all finished before their food came out but I guess it was because the gnocchi is made in house. He did say it was worth it. Also the scones were AMAZING! Cute place with nice waiters, would definitely go back! read more

Been wanting to try this place for years and finally got the chance. It's in a hotel, and easy to find. We were sat in a back room and greeted quickly. We ordered the drink special, a peach bourbon drink. The waiter explained its family style or shareable plates, and left as we perused the menu. We decided on the burratta and watermelon pork belly apps and for the entrees we got the halibut special and the NY Strip. Burratta was odd as you got a baseball sized piece of cheese with a huge bowl of arugula and strawberries. The ratio was just off, hard to eat that much arugula, especially when it's lightly dressed so it was really just about of bitter lettuce. Cheese was good. Pork belly watermelon was the same, just 4 small squares of pork belly on a lot of watermelon. It tasted nice, but just not enough pork belly Halibut special came with asparagus and was covered in onions, which were not in the description on the menu. My wife brushed them off and ate most of the fish. It was a little overcooked and dry, but had a nice flavor. Steak was really good and very large Came with fingerling potatoes. Sliced in the kitchen it had overcooked to a medium or medium well while I had ordered med rare. Dessert was good, had the key lime pie and a dish of sorbet. Was really good pie, one of the best I've had. It's nice inside, open kitchen and lots of communal dining areas Overall was a miss, ratios were off, cooking was off. Wouldn't come back read more

This is one of my favorite restaurants in town. I enjoy going for dinner rather than brunch because there's usually way more options for me to try. The menu changes seasonally but Ive had a delicious gnocchi, lobster bisque, grapes that tasted like they were grilled, warm biscuits with fresh jam, and so many other good dishes. My husband loves the cookies and milk for dessert while I will pick a tres leche cake anyday when they have it. I enjoy the cocktail variety as well which can change with the seasonal menu too. The service is normally great and the location downtown allows for walking before or after. read more

From the moment we arrived, there was a notable lack of interest in customer support. Starting with our inquiry "where shall we park for the restaurant, Wood Ash Rye?" Answer - across the street. After a rather long hesitation, or, "valet parking is free." Next, at the host station for the restaurant, we were greeted with "I will be right back to seat you" then we proceeded to wait 10 + minutes. The restaurant had only 20% occupancy. Once at the table, the service was awkward & sluggish. Again, taking a very long time for food with one person's salad being delivered once the table was nearly finished with their meals. Had the balance of the table, as offered, politely waited for all dishes to be served, hot food would have been cold by then. The Moscow Mule cocktail was very sub par. The food - meh... We will not return read more

We had the best experience at Wood, Ash, Rye in St. George, Utah. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm and inviting -- the décor is beautiful, with a perfect blend of modern touches and cozy charm. We love the lights! We were lucky enough to have Zoe as our server, and she truly made the evening unforgettable. She was attentive, knowledgeable, and had such a friendly, welcoming energy. She made great recommendations and was genuinely excited about the menu, which made us even more excited to try everything. The food absolutely lived up to the hype. We had read about the biscuits and they were heavenly -- warm, buttery, and just the right amount of flaky, while still melting in your mouth. The salad was fresh and flavorful, and the brussel sprouts were out of this world -- crispy, perfectly seasoned, and easily some of the best I've ever had, with just a tang of goat cheese. Between the gorgeous setting, incredible food, and Zoe's outstanding service, this was one of the best dining experiences we've had in a long time. Can't wait to come back! read more

We've eaten at WAR 4 times prior to tonight's dinner and had decent food. Tonight was a different story. The hummus (odd flavor) was served w unpeeled carrots, celery and broccolini tops (not great dippers) The mushroom & shishito app. was greasy and didn't look appealing on the plate. The Jambalaya "Not Traditional" was served in a rich cream sauce & paired with cheesy grits that were cold. The combination of richness was a gut bomb. A lighter rice would have been better or just stick to a more traditional recipe. Lastly, The $40 Pork Chop was delivered on a small plate with a few slices of raw apple, a scant scattering of fried onion and a weak swipe of odd purée. The chop was cut off the bone and pre sliced for some reason. It looked mangled and unappetizing with the bare bone. The cut was fatty, gristly and served lukewarm. Again this was a $40 plate ! Our waiter was really nice! We were honest with our feedback & he comped the appetizers, gave a discount for the chop and added a free dessert. It would have been great to have just had a well prepared meal in the first place. Sadly, I don't think we'll be returning. read more

Had an amazing meal at Wood Ash Rye. The filet mignon was perfectly cooked along with rack of lamb both were incredibly tender, the Brussels sprouts were flavorful with just the right crisp, and the bison gnocchi was a standout--rich, unique, and absolutely delicious. Everything we tried was excellent. Definitely a place we'd come back to. read more

Wood Ash and Rye is the best restaurant in St. George Utah hands down . Located in the Advenire Hotel was an exquisite dining experience from the wait staff, to the quaint asethics to the mind blowing delicious foods. Everything from the appetizers to the deserts was stunningly beautiful and flavorful. Kudos to the chef and the entire kitchen staff. The seasonal menus are so charming and the way each shareable meal is explained was an absolute delight. We're coming back every year to see whats new. So impressive and well thought out. Our waitress deserved ever ounce of that tip. Hand claps for everyone . Im telling my friends and co- workers . And then we got extra cookies . Just amazing. read more

Came here so that we could take advantage of their dog friendly patio. The patio was so warm, which I appreciated with the sun going down and a slight breeze. It was very comfortable. The staff were very friendly, they brought the dogs their own water bowl, which we really appreciated! I asked what the server recommended, and she recommended the berry lemonade and their pork chop. That is what I got! The berry lemonade was just okay and for the price I probably would have just stuck with water. The pork chop was excellent. The meat was flavorful and cooked beautifully. It comes with a cauliflower purée, but you do not get very much of that. I wish that the side had been more substantial while the pork chop itself was incredible and delicious, I was not full after finishing my plate and when I pay $40 for a plate, I want to be full when I leave. With larger portion size, I would have been more satisfied the flavor of the pork was the best I've ever had. It's a good choice when you're out with dogs but for the price tag associated and the quantity of food received I did not feel like it was worth it unfortunately. If the meal had come with a salad or something to help offset the main entrée plate and also still give me a full meal that is another option that would entice me to come back. read more

Good food and drinks but the service is horrible. The bartender disappeared for 10 mins+ multiple times. Maybe he had the shits? A guy ate half his shrimp and grits and left and the half eaten meal sat uncleaned next to me for more than 30 mins. Clean up, it's not that hard. They were busy and they left me and everyone else hanging. A guy came in from the restaurant and asked where his drinks were...nobody knew. read more

Third try at this spot and the last. Three chefs in the kitchen, but it took almost 90 minutes to receive our meals. My scrambled eggs were lukewarm, and the breakfast potatoes were over salted. Biscuit was good. Service by Owen was excellent. Guess this spot is just not for us. read more

Wood Ash Rye is an upscale dining experience for the nature-lovers and adventurous type. That may not be their intentional clientele, but that felt like the vibe to me, so I'm sticking with it. Reservations may not be required, but highly recommended-especially during busy days/times. We were lucky enough to walk in on a Sunday morning for breakfast, but that may not be the case. The food is better than average, which aligns with the ambience and overall experience. I didn't see a children's menu, but I did see a child dining with their family, so they may have kid choices available. Get the biscuits. Trust me on this one. And the potatoes. The seasoning is delicious. read more

This a a true gem in Southern Utah. The food and service are amazing and the ambiance is classy and elegant but feels cozy. We had the scallops and filet and both were superb. The starter salad was one of the freshest salads I've ever had and their grilled Brussels are superb. Just over the top good food and reasonable for a top notch establishment. read more

It's not often that the first restaurant you stumble upon in a new place ends up becoming one of your favorites -- but Wood Ash Rye absolutely did. It checks all the boxes: beautiful décor, locally crafted and inspired drinks, and some of the most flavorful, beautifully plated dishes I've had in a long time. Our server, Summer, was amazing -- great suggestions, super knowledgeable, and clearly proud of all the locally sourced ingredients they use. My only gripe? She's a little too loyal to their "hummus." You can't call something that isn't hummus... hummus. That feels disrespectful to actual hummus. Other than that, I highly recommend visiting this place. You won't be disappointed. read more

I really appreciate Kyler going out of his way to make this right. I met him randomly and started discussing what had happened and our Thanksgiving experience. He made sure to make things right. When I say they went above and beyond, I'm not putting that lightly. Our waitress, Parthy, was phenomenal. Had wonderful food recommendations, as well was very friendly and attentive. The chef came out and chatted to us and genuinely cared about our experience. He has been there about 4 months and has done some amazing things to the menu. He is a very talented chef. The elk gnocchi was fabulous. We will definitely be going back to get that again. Make sure to order the potatoes, fries, and you can't go wrong with the biscuits, ever. Everything was great. We will be going back and really appreciated how they went out of their way to make sure we were taken care of. read more

Wonderful dining experience with live music at the bar of the wood ash rye restaurant located inside the advenire hotel. The restaurant was fully booked but I was able to snag a seat at the bar in the lobby and it offered the same full menu. The bartender recommended the shrimp and grits and it did not disappoint. It had a bit of a kick to it but well balanced by the maple bacon. read more

This amazing restaurant is in the lobby of the Advenire hotel. The lobby is so well decorated, cozy and chic so you just want to hang out. The food was even more amazing. The service was great. The chef himself brought out our food and I loved every bite. We had the roots and orchard, the buttermilk biscuits, the rooted greens and filet mignon. I did wish there was a spring mix with the roots and orchard to make it more of the salad I was expecting but the pistachios beets, raspberry reduction and cheese were an award winning combination. I want to go there for every meal. I can't recommend it enough! read more

It was actually a 2 star experience but giving them 3 stars because I believe the problem I had was maybe Opentable's part not them. Also we got to the restaurant more than 30 mins before the reservation but they still took us. My boyfriend and I were in town for Thanksgiving and I decided to make a reservation at this restaurant ahead of time to make sure we have a place to eat since we were not familiar with which restaurant would be open. I made a reservation through Oepntable and upon making one, it asked me if I wanted a pre-fix thanksgiving menu or regular menu. I picked regular menu coz I really didn't want to pay $120 for Thanksgiving dinner and I wanted to try their regular menu which looked good. When we got to the restaurant, we were told they were ONLY serving Thanksgiving menu. Since we had no idea where else to go, we had no choice but to stay. Food overall wasnt bad at all but I didn't enjoy it that much coz I wasn't really in the mood for it. And I thought $120 was overpriced for that location. Sure they give you LOTS of food, but still it wasnt the best. OpenTable really mislead me and I was so disappointed. And the server wasn't that great either. I felt she was just doing bare minimum. read more

We dined at Wood Ash Rye for our anniversary, and it ended up being one of the best surprises of our trip. This wasn't a planned stop--we were actually referred here by our hotel's front desk host, who also made the reservation and let the restaurant know about our celebration. From the moment we arrived, the team went above and beyond to make us feel special. We were seated at a small, more private table set away from the busier dining area--a thoughtful touch that felt intentional. On the table was a handwritten card congratulating us on our anniversary, along with a note that dessert would be on the house. Those little details really set the tone for the night. Our server explained that the menu was meant to be a shared dining experience and gave us some great recommendations. We ordered the seasonal brie, mashed potatoes, filet, and gnocchi. While we were waiting, the head chef stopped by our table and generously offered us their Brussels sprouts dish to try, on the house. That gesture alone was memorable, but the food itself was incredible. The standout dish for us was the gnocchi--absolutely phenomenal and something we could not get enough of. To finish, we tried the hazelnut, cocoa, and chile pepper crème brûlée. At first we were skeptical of the flavor combination, but it completely won us over--it was rich, unique, and delicious. Everything about this dinner--from the service, to the chef's thoughtfulness, to the quality of the food--made it a highlight of our anniversary trip. We highly recommend Wood Ash Rye to anyone looking for an elevated, shared dining experience. read more

So far only ordered desserts. We ordered the blueberry peach cobbler. It arrived with ice cream already almost completely melted. Ice cream alone no flavor from the one bite I got that wasn't melted. The cobbler literally tasted like iron and onions and peppers. Worst dessert ever! I'm guessing they serve their hash in the cast iron skillets also cuz that's what it tasted like. We also ordered dark chocolate pistachio tart. Also no flavor and super dry. Severely disappointed especially since it was valentines! Want to try their food to fully give a review. Nervous with how bad the desserts were. read more

Everything was delicious, we especially loved the biscuits and the chicken! All around it was a great dining experience.
