Q4U Barbeque- St. George Utah


Q4U has changed names to Dubs... But the menu is the same and it is located in the same place... 

The other day my daughter and I were driving around and wanted to go somewhere different. We couldn't make up our mind and my grandson just knew he needed food and needed now :)


As we were driving on Sunset, we decided to stop by Q4U BBQ, I heard a few others say it was good, so we went out on a limb and went there.I have to say, we were happy with our choice.

My daughter and grandson just moved back here from North Carolina and this food reminded me of when I went there to visit them. I ordered the catfish with black eyed peas and collard greens. I received a generous portion of catfish and most times I am a bit apprehensive on eating collard greens unless I know how it is served. I was pleased with my choice and I loved the black eyed peas. There was a sweet flavor to them. I'm not sure what it was, but it had the right balance. And in my opinion, the best perk is that they serve Pepsi products. Yeah for that one.

My grandson loved the Mac and Cheese. We ordered more for him, but that was what he was wanting and I didn't want to argue with a 2 yr old. That was not on my agenda for the day.

My daughter ordered the ribs and that came with mac and cheese and I forget what else she had. But the rub they used tasted like they made it in the South. It was tender and tasty. If you like ribs, you should give this place a try. I know I will be back for the catfish. Its hard to find good catfish. Some places make these strips and you just don't get your moneys worth. You will here.
If you like sports, you will love this. You can have your dinner and watch your favorite games. I wonder if they play the Phoenix Suns though :). I have been to other places that show sports, but for some reason I like this. It is small and quaint and not overpriced.

Dorthalee's Café: Location: Washington City Utah

Dorthalee's - Washington City Utah


 Dorthalees's Is Now Closed... 

My husband I usually go out for breakfast on Mondays because he leaves for out of town then. For the past couple of times we decided to give Dorothalees a try. For the most part it is ok. The prices are good for what you get. But I have found that the service isn't that great.

I ordered the mushroom and swiss omelet. With that you get hash browns and toast. I believe it was only $4.95 for that and then I had coffee. For the price it was good. But the flavor was ok, but kinda on the bland side. My husband is fonder of Rise and Dine down the street.

If you have been out to Washington or lived here for some time. You may know the location of Dorthalees. It use to be called Bishops and then the Tumbleweed moved in there. From what I gather, the Tumbleweed is still part owners of it. I do have to say, the inside is very nice. In the back of my mind though, I believe people still are thinking about Bishops being in there, the prices and the down home feel. I know when I go in there, I can't help but think about the warmth the place use to have and the atmosphere. You knew what to expect and you got that. You got the joking around and the family feel. I do not feel that now when I go into Dorothalees. It has a bit of a standoffish crew. They all dress in black and white and look nice. But it just doesn't feel like a warm atmosphere and very friendly.

The past couple of times we have been there as well, they have ran out of something. But like I said, the price is good.

If you want food, this is a place to eat at and for me that's about it. There isn't anything great about the place, but it is what it is. The type of foods you will find there eggs, pancakes, french toast , omletes and normal breakfast items, a variety of sandwiches, burgers and salads for lunch. The dinner menu offered choices such as BBQ Ribs, meatloaf, chicken fried steak and pot roast.

Below is a rundown of the information, location and prices...Speaking of prices, if you order drinks, after 2 be ready to pay for refills. Plus they have coke products. And if you know me, that's not cool.

Atmosphere- If you're looking for a great dining experience, Dorthalee's probably isn't the place for you. It is pretty much a typical diner type of atmosphere, minus the friendliness. However, if you're looking for a meal that relatively inexpensively, you should give them a try.

Please note that I gave this a negative review only because it isn't one of those places that is real good or great at service. But if cheap is good for you, then go for it.

Golden Corral- 42 South River Road, St. George, UT 84790

Golden Corral- Food Review


On Saturday July 18th, my husband and I decided to go to Golden Corral. This Golden Corral is located at 42 South River Road, St. George, UT 84790.

We had a few people that were ahead of us, which is always to be expected at Golden Corral. The lines go fast though, which is good for an impatient person.

I found Golden Corral a bit difficult to be unbiased at because our family eats here often. We have found it is a perfect place to go when everyone wants something different or if I don’t know what I want. We have also gotten to know some of the servers and greeted with a smile. Stacy, Sergio and Sharon are servers that you will be happy to have. We usually get one of the three. But all in all, Golden Corral knows what they are doing and you should be happy with any of the servers.


When we found a place to sit, we were immediately greeted by our server (Sharon). She asked us what we were drinking. A big plus for those who like Pepsi, they serve Pepsi products as well as coffee, tea, milk and strawberry soda. They offer a wide variety for almost any taste.

Golden Corral use to have it where you had to wait for your server to bring you your plates and rolls. The rolls are very soft, and come to your table nice and warm with a butter spread. I do like it better now that you can go get your own plates and rolls.

This Golden Corral always goes above and beyond to accommodate their guests.. You will often see tourists embarking from the buses. But do not despair, the workers are fast and they serve with a smile.

Tonight I focused on healthier choices. I like to start with the salad bar. They have a variety of greens. I like the spinach leaves with romaine lettuce. Then I go to add boiled eggs, black olives, sunflower seeds, kidney beans, fresh grilled chicken, diced ham, pepperoni, fresh mushrooms, wow the choices are endless. On a special note, you can watch them prepare your food right in front of you. You can see the workers dice, chuck and peel all of your favorite veggies and fruits. As my second dish I had baked chicken, okra, shrimp and mashed potatoes with gravy. You will notice that the gravy had slivers of meat. . I did try some of the deserts, but I try to stay away from them. They are way too yummy and I would way over indulge.

There are tons of food choices, ranging from soups and salads to steak, fried chicken, rotisserie chicken and many, many side dishes. They have a large variety of desserts including pies, cakes, cookies, ice cream, and brownies. They offer an area where steaks, chicken and other meats are cooked fresh and to order. On Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays, they also serve Breakfast. I would say breakfast is my favorite time to go. If only I could wake up to think about eating. I think they should consider having some breakfast items on the evening or lunch menu for those like me that like to eat breakfast at anytime of the day.

I think it's great that they give a free meal to the Veterans once a year. Golden Corral beats all the other buffet style restaurants. They are also very community oriented and have been willing to help out when asked if possible. The owner and managers of this location are awesome.

Product Quality- Very Good
Price- Low-Moderate- Prices Vary throughout the day and they offer discounts for children and for seniors. If you are a senior, they do have an early bird special.
Location- 42 South River Road, St. George, UT 84790.
Service- Very Good
Speed– Fast
Cleanliness- Good
Atmosphere- For me it reminds me family dining. You will find kids running around and parents and grandparents interacting with each other. I like the family atmosphere.

Final Thought:
Go there with an appetite. Their breakfasts have a great deal where you get your coffee, milk and juices included with the price. And you can’t beat the price. The only negative that I have found here is that parents have a way of not watching their kids, so I am always watchful of where their hands go. But I have noticed that the staff is there to clean up and make sure things are in order to the best of their ability. For our family Golden Corral beats the other buffets, even though I like one item at another place. But you can’t have everything you want.

Cafe Rio- St. George Utah



I have been off my computer for a few weeks due to my daughter Jessica and JJ coming to visit and we are just finishing up moving. This review actually took place a few weeks ago and I am just getting around to posting it.

Cafe Rio is located at 471 E Saint George Blvd, St. George, UT 84770. Cafe Rio serves Mexican style food.

Cafe Rio is one of those places that I didn't really want to go to. When I eat Mexican food, I want it to bite back with a vengeance. However, I decided to venture in and see what they had to offer.

Cafe Rio is a a family oriented place that is full of energy. You can feel the energy as soon as you enter the restaurant. The food is served cafeteria style. You won't be disappointed by the portions you get. I did find it hard to hear what they were asking when it came to what kind of beans and such I wanted. Thats because it is loud in there, but not in a bad way. You can tell they are enjoying their job and its nice to see a place that lets the employees have fun while doing their job.

On this trip to Cafe Rio's I brought along my daughter, my grandson, my pastor and his wife. I ordered the special of the day which was the Chicken Tamale. This selection came with my choice with black or pinto beans, rice, You can also have your choice of meats. I even had enough to take home. Like I said, the portions are huge, so come hungry. I was hoping there would be more heat to this burrito. But over all it was very good.

Jessica and JJ had the Pork Barbacoa and her exact words was when asked if she was happy with it, she said heck yeah. The Pork Barbacoa is loaded with pork, rice, cheese, sour cream, green sauce and black beans. JJ was very happy with sharing with everyone.

Ruth ordered a Grilled Chicken Quesadilla. When you order this you get your choice of meats, lettuce, Pico DE Gallo, guacamole, fresh hand made tortilla. This was something I could see myself eating. It looked good and the tortilla was grilled to perfection. It was crunchy, but not so much so it would crumble. She would order this again.

I can't remember what Dean had ordered. But he was very happy with it all. This was their first time coming here and they looked forward to trying it.

Final Thought: Everything was really nice when we went there. We ate outside and I was happy that the lady cleaning tables helped us with the high chair for JJ. The only negative thing I would say would be that they should have garbage cans outside. Its a pain to have to dump your stuff inside when you have your hands full.

Friday

Olive Garden- St. George Utah


Today my daughter Jessica, my grandson JJ and I went to the Olive Garden for lunch. We went to the only location in Washington County and that is 1340 E 170 S, St George. It is located across from Wingers and Cattycorner from Applebee’s. It also shares the parking lot with Target. I wasn’t feeling so great, so this is more of a review from my grandson’s and daughter’s perspective.

First of all I want to say how nice it is to have an Olive Garden finally in St. George. When we moved here from Arizona, this is the place that we missed the most and for a good reason. They have yummy breadsticks, soups and salads. Their pasta and meat dishes we have found for the most part are excellent.

When we first entered the restaurant, the door was opened for us and we were greeted with a smile from the gentleman at the door and we were immediately seated. For the most part the service was good. It was a bit slower then usual. We had to wait to get our drinks ordered. Once we got our drinks ordered and our food ordered. The soup came out first and then not too soon after that, the main course. I wish they would have waited until we had our soup eaten. There isn’t much room on the table for all the food and it gets in the way. Overall, the service was ok like I said, just not what it usually is when it comes to the waitress. But the food was awesome as always.


Today I ordered the Ravioli di Portobello. If you love Portobello Mushrooms you will love this Portobello mushroom-filled ravioli in a creamy smoked cheese and sun-dried tomato sauce. This is one of those dishes that are very easy to eat and you don’t feel like you have over eaten. It’s just the right amount of food and you will have some to take home. Each of the raviolis’ is stuffed with more then enough Portobello Mushrooms. The cost of this dish is $10.95. This dish is topped with green onions and finely diced tomatoes. Enjoy their freshly baked garlic breadsticks and your choice of homemade soup or garden-fresh salad with any entrée. I always go with my favorite and chose the Zuppa Tascano Soup. You will find a good amount of sausage, kale, potatoes, onions and other spices to add life to this wonderful soup. I could go to Olive Garden just for the soup and be completely content.
My daughter Jessica ordered the Tour of Italy. She was very pleased with her selection and had plenty to take home. Here selection came with homemade lasagna, lightly breaded chicken parmigiana and creamy fettuccine alfredo. I think her favorite must have been the chicken parmigiana. That was the first thing she dug into and was gone. The rest came home with us and my niece had a great lunch for after school. Although I’m not sure how it can be homemade if it is made in a restaurant. The cost of her meal was $14.95. She did have a coupon for $4.00 off a dinner entrée. She found her coupon in the Sunday newspaper.

Now, for the most important person in our dinner party, let me introduce my grandson JJ. JJ ordered Spaghetti and had a good time eating my raviolis. He loved it… As you can tell by the look on his face, he was having a good time with each noodle. He loved the soup too and he even took a few bites out of a Black Tie Mousse Cake.

If you are a tea drinker, then you should try the Peach Bellini. It is very good. I didn’t have it today, but 9 times out of 10 I order this drink since they serve Coke Products. I must warn you that it is sweet enough without adding sugar. I made that mistake the first time, yuck and double yuck.

Red Robin Hamburgers- Washington Utah


On Friday my friends Jen, her husband, her mom Donna and her cute little baby Zuriah went out to Red Robin. We chose Red Robin for a couple of reasons: 1. We needed to discuss business and 2. To have a good lunch... Both were accomplished... Scott and Jen helped out with the review and I would like to thank them for their input and their company.

Red Robin is located in the Cotton Mill Shopping Center by Kohl's, facing Telegraph (Red Cliffs Drive), directly across from Home Depot and Wal-Mart.

When we first arrived at Red Robin we were greeted very fast and seated. The first thing you will notice when you arrive at Red Robin of Washington Utah, is that is it very family friendly. They will embarrass your friends or family member when it is their birthday as well. Expectations are mostly fulfilled. Decor is as one would expect--shiny, clean, kid-friendly.

I ordered the All Natural Burger- It comes with your choice of fresh fruit (cantaloupe) or bottomless fries, pickles, tomatoes and I ordered jalapeno peppers for the side. I do wish they offered cottage cheese as an option, but they don't so I won't carry on about that one, lol. I also had water to drink. But they do offer Pepsi products, which is good. Overall, I was pleased with my selection.


Scott's A-1 peppercorn burger with jalapeno's added.


Good balance of taste. One bite of heat the next bite smooth and cool and back and forth.
Meat had good texture and was cooked to order, special order was correct and abundant.
Good presentation and speed of service.
Fun plating and design.
Groovy Smoothie was delicious and inviting. Smoothie was a wonderful blend of taste. Glass was fun and decorative.

If you like the heat of a good pepper ask for jalapenos to be added and ask for extra if you really like the heat.


Jenn's Gourmet Cheeseburger.


Meat had good texture and was cooked to order.
Bun was toasted and light.
Plating was fun and accessible.
Good presentation and speed of service.
Ordered a Dr. Pepper. Was asked if I wanted a refill a couple of times and was grateful for the attention.

Bottomless refills on most drinks. A real crowd pleaser for those who like to sit and chat after your meal is the bottomless french fries. As long as you want to sit and relax they will ask you if you want more fries or drinks.

They have a No-rush attitude if their customer wants to relax while eating, which is a good idea for those impromptu lunch meetings.

As you enter the restaurant they greet you with a smile. If there happens to be a small wait they have seating along the windows with a TV in the floor and a small arcade for the kids. They try to seat you to best fit your needs and they do it quickly.

As you leave they send you off with a smile, a balloon for the kids (if they want), a thank you and a please come again. They always ask how was your food and love to hear your comments.

Since your waiter/waitress is your cashier there is no need to wait in line to pay. In your check there should be a comment card. If you fill it out you can receive emails from them possibly for coupons for your next visit.

Price:
moderate. you get what you pay for- Average Price is $8.00 on up....
Atmosphere: good
Speed of Service: good even on busy days.
cleaniness: good

Hours of Operation and Location:


640 W Telegraph St
Washington, UT 84780
Sun-Thurs: 11a-10p; Fri-Sat: 11a-11p

Final Thought: This is a fun place to go with the family and they have good food. It isn't cheap, but if you want cheap go to McDonald's.

Coming Soon- Cafe Rio

Made in Brazil Brazilian Steakhouse- St. George, Utah



My brother in law and I were thinking about going out to dinner last night. Since we had the Dixie Direct Card we decided it was a good time to try something different. Since a number of people have asked me to do a review on the Brazilian Steakhouse, we decided the time was now… So off we go wondering what to expect. We have never had Brazilian food before and this was something different for sure.

The Made in Brazil Brazilian Steakhouse located in the Phoenix Plaza on Bluff and Sunset. The exact address is 929 West Sunset Blvd. The Brazilian Steakhouse is not your ordinary steak house. At some restaurants, by the time you get to eat your cut of meat, the meat has a tendency to fail to deliver the right amount of flavor and may not be hot. That is not the case here.

The giant skewers of meat are rotisserie-cooked meat The giant skewers of meat are rotisserie-cooked meat; all cooked over a mesquite charcoal pit. they are carved and served directly from fire to your plate.; they are carved and served directly from fire to your plate.

We started out with the salad bar, which I loved. They had a good variety to choose from. You will find some interesting and tasty choices. I really enjoyed the black beans with beef. It had a very pleasing flavor to them.
Guests of Made in Brazil, Brazilian Steakhouse will use a wooden cue to let the servers know when they are ready for the next skewer of meat. Place the green side up, and the servers will continue to bring skewers to you. Place the cue on the red side when you are too full to eat another bite! This makes it nice to set your own pace and relax.

When you are finished eating and had your fill, turn the cue to the flat side to let the waiter/waitress staff will then bring your check.

A bit of advice -- Try a little at a time or you will run out of room before you have gotten a chance to try all the varieties of meat. I was so full, I didn't get to try them all. And don’t forget to turn the wooden cue over of they will keep feeding you and you will need to loosen that belt.

Some of the Meats Offered Are:


* Prime Rib
* Ham- My Favorite
* Chicken wrapped in bacon
* Tenderloin w/garlic
* Top Sirloin
* Lamb
* Chicken
* Pork Sausage
* Pork Loin
* Chicken hearts upon request (Dinner Only)
* Pineapples


More Information: Lunches are priced at $11.99 , kids 5-11 are $5.99 and Dinner is $18.99, kids 5-11 are 9.99 .... If you have the Dixie Direct Card, they offer a buy one get one free. But if you go for dinner, they will discount your bill for the $11.99. They also offer more meats on the dinner menu, its is a meat lovers delight, lol. They serve Pepsi products and have a variety of other choices as well like limeades and alcoholic drinks. We didn't have any dessert, but they looked yummy.I was too full after we ate to get desserts.

There are many, many options, check out The Phone Book for more information and menu items. You can find it on page 788.

Usually I do food reviews on this blog. But this time I am gonna tell you about an awesome deal before it happens. At Lin's Marketplace on Saturday, February 21st from 8am-12 pm.

All of the proceeds are being donatated to Lin's Bakery Employee Char Barton and Family in memory of her loving husband and father William Barton.

I work at Lin's and have gotten to know Char and she has two young daughters and she is very kind and loving. Char is the kind of person that will do anything for anyone, even though she has nothing. The loss of her husband was and is devastating to her family. he ws uninsured and was on disability due to his medical problems. He will be deeply missed by his daughters and Char. My thoughts and prayers go out to her. She has a long road ahead of her. I know that God will be looking out for them and she will be ok. But if you don't have any plans for Saturday, February 21st, come over to Lins and have a great breakfast and at the same time, you can help out a family in need.

P.S. If you have kids under the age of 13 or so. There is a Kids Club Activity that day from 10 am-2pm. It's free and you are never asked to buy anything. Just look for the table that has Kids Club Balloons...

Rickshaw Asian Gourmet- St. George Utah


Rickshaws Has Gone Out of Business... 


Tonight we went to Rickshaw Asian Gourmet on 1973 W Sunset Blvd, St. George, Utah. Its located in the Albertson's Plaza on Sunset across from Lin's Marketplace... This is one of those mixed reviews. But for the most part it is a thumbs up.

All of the entrees come with your choice of soup or salad, your choice of steamed rice, organic Malaysian brown rice, fried rice or veggie-lo-mein (soft noodles).

I ordered the Spicy Volcano Chicken (Hunan).It was priced at $6.99. There is a warning on there that says, " A Spicy lover's special, we dare you to try it. OK... I am all up for a dare. So I tried it and while it was good and easy to eat. It wasn't hot. It had good flavor and all. With my order it came with egg drop soup, which was the easiest for me, Malaysian brown rice and one of those cookies that has an almond on it. I didn't eat the cookie, but then I never do, so I didn't include this in my review. My fortune that was in the fortune cookie was something like "Don't Disappoint others that look up to you". I got no, you will meet a tall dark and handsome stranger. But then I don't need to do that since I have my husband who is tall, dark and somewhat of a stranger, lol Or should I say strange :) And lets hear it for a drum roll. THEY SERVE PEPSI PRODUCTS... YAY and I ordered a Diet Pepsi.

My brother in law ordered the Sesame Chicken (Shanghai). That was also priced at $6.99. He had the fried rice, which he liked better then mine. But I thought I would go with something easy to eat and digest... He enjoyed his dinner.

My niece ordered the Orange Chicken(Canton), it was priced at $5.99. She ordered the noodles rather then the rice. The noodles was OK, but they weren't for me.



Some of the other foods they offer is:


Vegetarian Egg Rolls, Fantail Prawns, Pot Stickers, Beef Skewers, BB Pork, Ceder Smoked Chicken salad, Lettuce Wrap, Fresh Garden Salads, Mango Shrimp, Basil Fowl, Mandarin Pork, Teriyaki Chicken and Bowls, Coconut Curry, Yu-Shang Chicken, Walnut Shrimp and alot of other things. They also have a decent vegetarian selection. And of course they have Pepsi Products...

One of the things I dislike about this place is how they will bring orders out one at a time. Someone in your party will get their order, and the others will have to wait. I personally think that they should bring the orders out when the entire party's orders are finished.

Sandie's Rating System:


Product Quality- Very Good
Price- Reasonable - Ranging from $1.99-$9.99
Location- 1973 W Sunset Blvd #F, St. George, Utah
Service- For the most good- Should bring orders out together
Speed – Pretty Fast
Cleanliness- Very Good
Atmosphere- Easy going and relaxing

Final Thought- They have a children's menu, but they only offer Chicken Fingers for that with sweet and sour sauce and a kids drink. And there is no MSG in their food, and they deliver within a 3 mile radius.

Hours of Operation:


Mon-Thurs: 11am-9:30 pm
Fri-Sat: 11am-10pm
Sunday: 11am-9pm

Rise and Dine Restaurant- Washington Utah


Rise and Dine Restaurant is now closed and Bishops is in it's location.

For breakfast or lunch, dine-in or carry-out, Rise and Dine Restaurant is open from 6:30 a.m. to 2:30 p.m., 7 days a week. You can order Breakfast and Lunch and on certain days, they are open later for dinner. I'm not sure of what days those are though. They are located off I-15, exit 10 (Washington) just North of Costco and Sportsman's Warehouse. If you know where the Lucky Buffet is and the new Checkers, that's where it is.

My husband and I and my brother in law go to Rise and Dine every Monday. My husband is a truck driver. So this place is close to his work and he gets a great breakfast before heading out for the week.


Today I had the Spinach and Mushroom Omelet. It comes with sour cream, but I substitute the sour cream for pepper jack cheese. It is great that way. I also get oatmeal with bananas instead of the grits or the hash browns. There is something about grits I don't like. I know many that like them, and who ever eats there seems to like theirs, but my thought is ewwwww, lol. I always seem to order the same thing. I also have coffee with my meal. You do have to ask for the real cream/half and half. On the tables they offer the flavored ones. For the toast each table has a good variety of jams for your toast. I never eat the toast. But that is because I'm not really into eating bread.

My husband ordered the Ham and Cheese on Rye Bread with French Fries. He isn't fond of fries. But he really liked theirs. They were crispy and had some kind of a coating on them. I did try one, and they were really good. They weren't wimpy. He stated that usually when a place says a heaping amount, it really isn't. But that wasn't the case here. He was very pleased with his lunch.

My brother in law ordered a club wrap. It had all kinds of goodies in it. He ordered chips to go as his side and was thinking after he tried the fries that he should have gotten that. The wrap was loaded with all kinds of goodies. He ordered the garlic and herb wrap. They have a few other choices, but didn't hear what they were.

For the three of us, our breakfast costs us around $29.00. Which isn't bad. Not the best price. But you do pay for what you get.

I don't think we have ever had a bad meal here. Usually my husband will order the Sausage Benedict. Sounds weird,. but it is like Egg Benedict, but is topped with sausage gravy instead.

This place is really good if you want to have a down home feel. Now when we go in there, they know who we are. Not sure if that is good or bad, lol. They are great when I substitute things, which I am good at doing. I guess I am somewhat picky.
