When we stayed in Springdale we asked many folks where was the best restaurant at which to have dinner. Pretty much universally the reply was the Spotted Dog Cafe. The decor and atmosphere were very nice. The service could not be faulted. But.... Of the three drinks we ordered, one was not drinkable (close to the worst margarita I ever... More

The restaurant offered an express brunch buffet that was less than $10 per person! Buffet included a selection of fresh fruit, oatmeal, sausages, eggs, and pastries. We were very satisfied.

While visiting Zion National Park, we took the local shuttle from our hotel to downtown Springdale. The hotel and bus driver recommended the Spotted Dog so we gave it a try. The food was great, fresh and pleasing to the eye. I enjoyed the fresh trout and my husband had the wild game meatloaf. Both were not overly seasoned, not... More

We stopped here for dinner after hiking the narrows in Zion & returning our rented gear to Zion Adventure Co. We asked for a recommendation from the nice girls cleaning our gear & since Spotted Dog was so close, we chose here. Service was superb! We sat in the back patio, which has lovely views. We both got the melt... More

The price for the breakfast buffet was cheap (about $8 per person) with standard breakfast fare. The reason it didn't get higher stars was the fact that the hostess was awful. Didn't get our of her chair when we came in to greet us and couldn't get off of her phone to bother to say thank you or goodbye when... More

A little more expensive than the other restaurants in town but well worth it. Try the breakfast buffet (around 9 dollars), but beware - orange juice and coffee will double your bill!

Mediocre meal, and over-priced, with so-so service. Had the back bean soup and trout- nothing to write home about, and not worth the elevated price, relative to better meals in the area.

The Spotted Dog serves a buffet breakfastwhich is a great deal for the money. Especially if you are going to hike most of the day in the canyon and you need calories to keep you going. They also serve diner (no lunch is served). The diner menu has a good, varied selection. We were a group of six and had... More

We enjoyed a super pasta dish - Goat Cheese Pocket with Pears and Sage sauce, it was out of this world. My husband enjoyed the meatloaf. I was not thrilled with the smoked trout appetizer. The Lemon cake for dessert was excellent. Just down the block from Cliffrose Inn. Very convenient.. A bit pricy.

You can't go wrong here - as my title implies. Especially good for a "special occasion". Can't add anything to the other excellent reviews.
