Painted Pony

Frommer's Review

From a lively contemporary space overlooking Ancestor Square, Randall Richards' excellent eatery is easily the best restaurant in St. George, and probably the best between Vegas and Salt Lake. Infused with a sensibility that's more California than Utah, Richards' creative menu includes familiar dishes with fresh preparations, seafood (sesame-crusted line-caught escolar is a melt-in-your-mouth specialty), perfectly grilled steaks (you could slice the tenderloin with a spoon), and an excellent pan-roasted rack of lamb. The room, with a curving bar and a colorful equine motif, nicely complements the menu. Lunch offerings include gourmet sandwiches and salads. Full liquor service is available.
