Painted Pony - St. George

Host was not friendly whatsoever. Sat us at our seats- several open tables , we said can we sit inside and his reply was we’re busy in a. Wry rude manner.

We’ve dined at Painted Pony for decades. The food was good but the menu never changed and the service was inconsistent. The cooks sometimes made ordinary dishes very unhealthy, like cooking mashed potatoes in duck fat, so we avoided taking anyone with a restricted diet there for fear of undisclosed levels of salt and fat. We are thrilled with the excellent service and hospitality and look forward to a more diverse and interesting menu with some heart healthy choices under the new owners.

We were greeted promptly and advised that we would be seated shortly for our reservation. We were quicky taken back to our table with a great view of the historic district in downtown St. George. It just got better and better. Our server CJ welcomed us, gave us some basic information about the menu and answered our questions easily. He assured us throughout the evening that we were take our time with ordering and enjoying our meal. The food was amazing. The Bacon Wrapped Almond Stuffed Dates were melt in your mouth delicious. The Duck was tender and tasty and the sides were perfectly cooked and heaven on the tongue. My husband said his ribeye was the best he has ever had in a restaurant and he is a steak snob!! Our water glasses were kept full and plates we removed in a timely manner as we finished. We will be back for sure!

We sat out on the deck. What a wonderful spot. The food was fantastic and the service was spot on. Highly recommend this place

Outstanding friendly and efficient customer service. The appetizers and entrees were top notch. We were passing through and decided to visit based on reviews. We were not disappointed…an absolute pleasure. We’ll be back when ever in Saint George.
