Renegades - Escalante

--- **Not Recommended Review** Philip C. 0 friends 3 reviews 7/17/2017 4.0 star rating The only reason I didn’t give this place 5 stars is because of the coffee at breakfast. Dinner was fantastic—my wife had a generous serving of thick, delicious salmon, while I enjoyed some tasty Mexican enchiladas. Breakfast was also good, but the coffee was just average, and only non-dairy creamer was offered instead of real half-and-half. Our waitress, Holley, took care of us during both visits and she was exceptional—helpful, attentive, knowledgeable about the area, and just a joy to converse with. The restaurant itself looks new, is clean and comfortable, and has a charming rustic vibe that suits this rugged town perfectly.

This was a wonderful place with a great dinner menu from sandwiches and burgers to more pricey entrees. Great live music started around 6:30 pm the night we were there. Quick service to by Diane!

I had the worst dining experience at this restaurant. The chicken strips in the chicken fajitas looked like they were four days old and were extremely dry. Nothing arrived sizzling as expected. The refried beans were crusty, as if they had been reheated from a week ago. The chips were not fresh and the salsa had an odd taste. I won't be returning. I'd recommend sticking with Circle D Eatery or Nemo's instead.
