"Best Restaurant in St. George" - Golf Odyssey - February 2003

Painted Pony, the best restaurant in St. George, could stand on its merits in a major city... Deserts are made in-house, and even the wine list is passable, a rare achievement in Utah....

Salt Lake Magazine, October 2002:

Painted Pony -- A culinary island in Southern Utah, the Painted Pony brings a touch of desperately needed Southwestern Class -- and intriguing flavors -- to St. George. The restaurant, tucked away in Ancestor Square, is exceptionally clean and cozy, with contemporary Southwestern art, fresh flowers, and -- in the evening -- a top notch romantic atmosphere with subdued lighting and patio dining .... The Painted Pony has perfected the fine art of using fresh ingredients and delicate flavoring ... A simple but varied wine list, generous portions, attentive service, and reasonable prices will convince you to return to "the Pony" anytime you're down south ...

St George Magazine, February 2005:

"the very best ... Painted Pony ...
