Sorry! We don't have any recommendations for Moab and Southeastern Utah right now.
Including even a few surprising twists, Moab-area restaurants have pretty much anything you might be craving. The other smaller towns in southeastern Utah don’t have quite the culinary kaleidoscope and focus mostly on all-American, meat-centered meals. Though not the best destination for vegetarians or those watching their weight, the comfort food can be quite good and satisfying. One thing is for sure: no matter what restaurant you choose, you won’t have to worry about a dress code. Shorts or jeans and sandals are always acceptable.
Learning into the area's Wild West past, this casual spot has cowboy hats and cow skulls on the walls, a cardboard cutout of John Wayne—and some of the best smoked meats around. It offers Southwestern takes on breakfast, lunch, and dinner, all in generous portions, and even has a bar to hang out in after a long day of driving or river rafting.
The only full-service restaurant serving dinner in town, this very casual eatery specializes in authentic Navajo fry bread, used in a variety of massive, delicious dishes. Often busy, people also come here for a full range of steak house staples, fish dishes, and the only salad bar around. Blanding is a dry city, so no alcohol is served.
This casual burger joint connected to a gas station is probably the best-known stop between Lake Powell and Capitol Reef. Even if you're not hungry, it's worth a visit for the incredibly thick shakes that rise out of their cups, but just be ready for some long lines on busy days.
