I have been such a procrastinator about posting this food review... A lot has been going on with me lately and I haven't really been going out to eat much...



Many from this area will remember Bishop's when it was on Telegraph... They closed down for awhile and are now reopened off of Green Springs just down from the Albertson's Plaza on the right hand side... Our family is happy to see them back in business...


We love Bishop's... The best way to describe Bishops is home cooking at it's best... We usually go there on Monday mornings for breakfast... I actually like the breakfasts better... And you just have to try their secret recipe jam... It's awesome on the warm rolls they serve up... They are what I would call All-American... They do have very good coffee for you coffee drinkers...

The night that my husband Chuck, brother-in-law Craig and I went there, I ordered the Liver and Onions... I thought it was pretty good... I think I am the only one in my household for the most part that likes Liver and Onions, so I went for it... The only negative that I have is that I wonder if the mashed potatoes is home made or instant... I'm not really sure... I should have asked our server Rich... BTW he is pretty awesome... He has alot of personality and is a real character.... OK... One perk is that they offer Pepsi products... I am more than OK with that... I am not a coke drinker at all...

My brother-in-law and husband had the Fish and Chips... It was a pretty good deal... The dinner special was around $6.00... They got three pieces of cod and a generous helping of fries...

I asked them how they liked their dinner and they answered in true man style with their mouths full, "They are good", and continued eating, lol... They were few one words, which means in women's terms, they were happy... They had a full tummy by the time all was said and done...

They do have a website, but they are working on it right now... So I would just go check it out off and on... You can find them on Facebook as well...

Overall Experience:

Service: Very good service although it can be slow at times if you go between meals or if there isn't a lot of people working... There have been times we had to wait longer then needed... The servers are very personable and make it right and ok... make sure you have extra time to spare...
Cleanliness: Very clean
Atmosphere: This is what I would consider a "mom and pop" type of place... You seat yourself and they are friendly... I keep looking for the eclectic decorations that was at the other Bishop's... But otherwise it is family establishment...
Value: You won't have to spend alot to get a good meal here... There is more than enough food on your plate and you may even have to loosen your belt...

The Bent Fork

The Bent Fork Is Now Closed... 

When they reopen we will post the new location... 

(435) 673-2755
St George
757 N Bluff St
St George, UT 84770

With the unique combination of Italian and Southwest flavors and the attractive, contemporary urban atmosphere at the restaurant, Bent Fork is an exciting new addition to the St. George culinary scene. (Courtesy of their Website)


I remember when the Bent Fork was getting ready to open. I wasn't thinking there was going to be much to it, but that changed soon enough. The name alone intrigued me to want to try it out. After they opened I tried the Green Chili Lasagna and that is what I am doing my review on today...

My friend Jennifer, her daughter and myself went to the Bent Fork for dinner. They have never been there before and I was wanting to do a review, so this was the perfect opportunity to introduce a friend to one of my favorite places to go to for dinner.

Green Chili Lasagna

My choice was the Green Chili Lasagna and it was packed full of flavor with every bite. It was loaded with alot of chicken and no words for how good this dish actually is. I was only able to try a couple of bites of it... But it was good...  My sister ate 90% of it and she loved it from what she said...With this dish you will get three layers of smoked chicken, house made pasta, cheese and Green Chile sauce… You also get your choice of soup or salad. Tonight I tried the Chicken Tortilla Soup which I have to say was awesome...

Chicken Tortilla Soup

The Chicken Tortilla Soup had the right balance of spicy. I loved it and would love to have the recipe for it. The soup was topped with festive red, blue and white crispy tortilla chips... This was way yummy.

Something that is really nice about the Bent Fork is that they offer Coke products as their main options. However they found a way around us that have no like whatsoever for Coke. They will let you order Pepsi products by the can. On the menu it does state that there is no free refills for drinks purchased that way. I am fine with that personally since I have a real dislike for Coke and to be able to get my Diet Pepsi with dinner is great in whatever form.

My friend Jennifer ordered the Chicken Parmesan with a side salad and she was really happy with her dinner. She had a very generous serving of both pasta and chicken. She was able to take hers home and share with her husband. She ordered their special lemonade... I have to say, if you like lemonade, you need to try this. It is very good and it's not made from a package. For her desert she ordered the Chocolate cake, but she ended up taking that home also... I have had this before and OMG... If this was the last dessert you had before dying, you would have to choose this one...

Ravioli's

Her daughter Heidi ordered the Ravioli. She didn't say much, but I knew she must have been happy over her choice... She was telling her mom, "Wow, you should try this". I have never tried this one, but I may have to sometime. Heidi also took home her dessert. She ordered one of my other favorites and that is the Chocolate Cheesecake... It is a chocolate lovers dream. When I have ordered this dessert, I had to share it.


Over All Experience:

Service: Excellent! We were greeted right away and seated. Our waitress was awesome and the owner even came over to our table to make sure everything was good.
Cleanliness: Very Clean
Atmosphere: I love how creative they are with their forks on the wall... You can tell they had fun with designing this place... Who would have known you could bend a fork so many ways?
Value: I believe you get what you pay for... I would say that the prices are moderate...

Other Information:

They do have a website and facebook page... You can read more about the Bent Fork... You won't regret going there and trying them out... If you are thinking you want to go somewhere different, this may be a good choice for you.

Dinner Hours:

• Monday - Thursday, 4pm - 9pm
• Friday & Saturday, 4pm - 10pm

I forgot to add that they offer a fish and chips dinner now... I haven't tried it, but I am hoping too... If they have gift certificates (Hint Hint Bridgette).... This may be a good thing,lol

The Brick Oven- St. George Utah

435-628-5800.
1410 E. St George Blvd
10:30 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. - Mon – Thursday
10:30 a.m. to 11:00 p.m. - Friday  - Saturday

My husband, grandson and myself went to the Brick Oven in St. George Utah yesterday and found that it was better than the first time I went there. I have to say though that the first time I went there was shortly after they opened and this was the first time I have been back, all thanks to the Dixie Direct Card.

As we entered the restaurant, we were greeted and seated promptly. The first thing I noticed was that they weren't a regular pizza joint. The decor was awesome.! I even told my husband that I liked the decor more than Olive Garden. It has a homey fill to it. 

My husband ordered the Calzone and was pleased with it. He is pretty picky about his food, so I was glad they had things on the menu that was good for him.The Calzone was loaded with hot cheese and pepperoni. The cheese flowed out of the Calzone as you would expect it to.  We ordered the side salad that came with it for myself. I recently ate breakfast, so I chose not to order anything today. The only negative and it was entirely my own fault is that I should have ordered the dressing on the side like I normally do. I wasn't pleased with the dressing, but that is only because I'm not much of a person for dressing on my salads.  

My grandson JJ ordered the Chicken Nuggets with Mandarin Oranges... They offered a generous serving to JJ and we had to take them home with us. He loved the Mandarin Oranges... He was happier with them than anything else. His meal also came with garlic bread and a child's drink. They made their own root beer and he was very happy with it. He ended his meal with one of their big lollipops.  They offer a birthday club for the children which is awesome... I know my grandson loves getting his birthday cards in the mail that is addressed to him.

I am going to at some point do a followup review of the Soup and Salad Bar when I go there next unless someone wants to give me a gift certificate (hint to my niece,lol). It would be nice to see how they do for dinner that includes the pizza and salad bar since that is what they are known for.

Over All Experience:  JJ says it is a Thumbs Up

Service: Very Good- Our waitress was there to refill and friendly

Price: The lunches are very reasonable and they have a lunch special that is $5.99. That is for the Soup, Salad and Bread sticks...

Cleanliness: Very Clean
Atmosphere:  I really enjoyed the atmosphere and it was very relaxed.

There was one negative for both my husband and I and that is that they offer coke products. They do offer alternatives such as root beer, tea and water.

Picnic Food Review - Focus on the Family

I am working on a special project for Southern Utah Food Reviews... Normally I do restaurants... My thought is since Easter is on April 24th, 2011 to do a food review of the best kind... It will be Family Time in the Park...

April 9th, 1pm-3pm

Fire House Park

1800 N Dixie Downs Rd Dixie Downs -Not Far from Snow Canyon Parkway on Dixie Downs- St. George

There is no cost other than what you purchase and choose to do with your family/friends... 

The idea is to show everyone that it's great to go out to eat, but even better to spend quality time with your family and friends... If you are just a couple, that is great too... 

The ending time is approximate, depending on what your family will be doing... 

What to Bring: 

Your Family, Friends or Neighbors
Picnic Food/Drinks for your Family and group... Other groups will not be eating each others food... So bring what you normally would... 
Games... If you play games at the park or bring your pet, they do have a pet area that is alot of fun... So bring what you normally would to a picnic... They do have areas where you can grill at as well... If this is your thing, I believe you can do that there...  Our family has even gone to McDonald's or where ever and brought the food to the park... 

You may want to bring a blanket to sit on just in case there are no tables available... 

P.S. There is a dog park...If you normally bring your pets with you, then you can bring them... 


I will be taking pictures and if we find that the weather is bad, we will be rescheduling it... In April it is hard to know what is what... If you would like to help with this project, then please RSVP to this special invitation to Focus on the Family... 

Not sure if there is going to be any music... If someone volunteers to sing or bring a group, then that would be awesome...

Bishops- Now Open in Washington Utah

Bishops Restaurant
961 N 3050 e #B-6 St George, UT 84790 


If anyone in Southern Utah has ever been to Bishops that was located in Washington by the Red Cliffs In on Green Springs and Telegraph, you will be happy to know they are now re-opened... They use to be where the Dorthea's is at now, the have moved and our family is very happy about that for our Monday morning breakfasts... 


We walked in there today because we were confused if it was the same Bishops or a different one, plus they had a sign up that said "Coming Soon" and then another that said "Now Open"... We went in and found out that today was the first day they were opened and yes, they are the same owners of the other Bishops... 

We had a really good breakfast today and had great service... They have always been reasonably priced.. I will actually be doing a full review of them when they have been open for a few weeks or so... That way they can get everyone trained and all the equipment and such that is needed... It was nice having our breakfast place back in town... They offer breakfast, lunch and dinner... 


They are now located in the shopping center that is behind the Albertsons Plaza, and on the same side... Previously in the same location was Rise and Dine and Sils... I'm not sure of the name of the plaza... 


Welcome Back Bishops
