My name is Sandie Divan and I am the owner of Southern Utah Food Reviews... This review is being done by two new reviewers that have joined the team in helping to bring an honest perspective to restaurants in Southern Utah. Thank you Lynn and Jessie for providing this review for us...

Jesse and Lynn Weaver 
This past week I was invited to have lunch at Dickey's BBQ located in Bloomington near Walmart at 2610 Pioneer Road. I admit to being leery about eating there because I'm usually not a barbecue type, but Dickey's changed my mind. First of all, my notions of a barbecue pit complete with flies and greasy food was dispelled by the cleanliness and good food served up by the friendly employees. 


My daughter Jesse, friend Bridgette and myself we faced with a wide range of choices from chicken, turkey, pulled pork, and Polish sausage to name a few. Included in the meal options are various side orders which can seem overwhelming to the barbecue novice, but makes ordering a lot of fun. Jesse had the little Hoagie sandwich with turkey, waffle fires and potato casserole. Bridgette had the Chicken Hoagie with side orders of coleslaw and macaroni and cheese. I chose the kid's meal with a Polish sausage sandwich and a side of fried okra. None of us were able to eat all of the food, but we enjoyed the tastes of all the side orders. Best side order was was the potato casserole, with real potatoes, cheese and chives. Yum! The macaroni and cheese was totally consumed, and the fried okra was OK but at least it was on the menu. Also available were free, crisp pickle spears which were a pleasant surprise. I restrained myself from making multiple trips to the pickle jar, but with difficulty. My polish sausage was good, I dipped it in different sauces for variety. One thing we especially liked was that the sandwich bread was not soggy, nor was it over-toasted to make it hard. For once, we all ate the bread. For desert, free ice cream was "on tap", which made me feel like we got a great deal. Put that together with the souvenir cup which can be used for discounted drinks on my next visit, and I know I will be back. 


Dickey's BBQ is open on Sunday and kids eat for FREE with each paying adult, which is a no-brainier for me. Dickey's is open daily from 11:00 am-9:00 pm, and has a drive through for added convenience.  On top of all that, Dickey's services include catering with very reasonable prices. St. George is lucky to have a restaurant that really thinks about its patrons by providing quality food choices, a clean and friendly environment and reasonable prices.

Last week, Sandie Divan, the creator of Southern Utah Food reviews, gave me the opportunity to participate in a food review at Dickey's BBQ Pit. I was able to try a couple of the sides and a main dish. I had The Little Hoagie, a side of Potato Casserole, and a side of Waffle Fries. The Little Hoagie is a sandwich filled with the meat of your choice, turkey in my case, and the original BBQ sauce. The Potato Casserole was my favorite food out of everything I tried at Dickey's. It has the perfect amount of seasoning and toppings, which truly made it stand out. I was told the Waffle Fries are a popular side at Dickey's. I was hoping the fries would have a unique taste to them, but they were good. 
After we were completely satisfied and stuffed from out delicious food, we helped ourselves to free ice cream. Bridgette and I filled our cups with root beer and vanilla ice cream, which, according to the staff, happens all the time! 


         During our meals, the staff continually walked by, making sure the tables were clean and everything was in order. I was happy to see how much they talked to the customers, always making sure they were happy and enjoying the food. 
I know I will be back to Dickey's again for thier fantastic food and outstanding customer service.

I love that they offer free ice cream, pickles and that the employees make it an enjoyable experience... There are many options available, you can dine in, carry out, drive through, cater and I am sure there may be other things...

My friend Nellie and I decided to go give American Grill a whirl... I was told by a friend that they were way good and had to give it a try.... 

When you try to find American Grill, you are going to look got Lightfoots Service Station and Carwash.... They are in the same building, but don't be deceived... Hidden treasures are to be found in this All American Grill... Look at this image and you will see that they are located beyond Lava Flow Rd just down the street from the Sand Hallow Pool in Santa Clara... Not the lake... 

All American Grill is decorated with images that would make any American proud. They don't hide that they are Americans... The food is prepared fresh as you order the food... What I like is that the fries are made from whole potatoes and not from a bag... We were greeted with a smile when our cashier/server waited for us to come up to her. She was outgoing and friendly... 

Nellie ordered the Pastrami Burger along with the fresh cut fries... She was pleased with how the buns was toasted and every ingredient worked well together... There were no over powering flavors, just a happy mouth saying feed me more... There was so much food that she had to take a to go box... For her drink she ordered coffee... There was no complaints about the lunch... 

I only had a strawberry cheesecake shake and a coffee... I was thinking about that funny combination and how off the wall that was.... But it worked for me... Overall, we were very happy with our lunch... The place is very convenient too... You can fill up your car and your tummy all at the same time... How can ya go wrong with that? 

Overall Experience: 

Atmosphere: I love it when people have no problem showing they have pride in being an American...
Price: Very reasonable... I think they also offer daily specials... You can eat here cheaper than McDonalds I would think... 
Cleanliness: It was very clean and open... 

I don't think you can go wrong by eating here... Give it a try... It may be your next most favorite place to go...

Today was the grand opening of a Pizza Hut. As we walked up to the store the music from Eric Dodge was playing away live and the people were milling around. As I walked in to get a menu and here the great deals, I was greeted by the store manager warmly. I was told about the specials and then was told i could order anytime. My family and I discussed our order and agreed to do it. My son ordered a personal pan with pepperoni for $4. Scott ordered a Supreme P'Zone for $5. My girls and I ordered their large one topping with half pineapple for $6.99. We were told it would take 15-20 minutes because of how busy they were and they got it right out at 18 minutes. It was pipping hot and just what we ordered. We spent a total of $17.15 and it was well worth it. keep up the good work guys and gals. i give this review a Thumbs Up!

New Facebook Page

We started up a new Facebook Page for Southern Utah Food Reviews... We would like to invite you to join us there and look for specials that will be offered on the page from Local Restaurants. If you are a restaurant owner you can request a food review... We will link your home page, location and facebook page if you have one to the Southern Utah Food Reviews... You will also be able to post specials on this page. There is no charge for doing the review... We would appreciate that the meals, drinks and desert be included in the meal if you are requesting a review... There are other reviews that will be posted at places from time to time that are requested by our readers... There is no charge to do that either... If the restaurant is outside of the Southern Utah area such as Mesquite NV or Ceder City, we will be sure to post that it is outside of the area, but they are close enough to do a review at our convenience unless the restaurant wants the review, then we ask for the meals to be covered then too...
