Escalante Outfitters

We'd been told to stop here after a long day of driving, and were glad we did. The place was SUPER packed, but the service stayed pleasant and cheery. They have a huge selection of pizza, salads, and desserts. We got takeout, and everything was still delicious. I'd highly recommend stopping by.

A Monday night stop turned into a memory for life. I’ve worked in James Beard award winning restaurants and specialty pizza for years, and this pizza is something I’ll be telling anyone who’ll listen to come to Escalante and try. The sourdough crust has been over 20 years in the making, with flavor and texture to die for, and every topping showed incredible care in the selection and execution. The staff were kind, helpful, welcoming, and personable, and the facilities were clean and met travelers’ needs, with fresh water, inexpensive laundry, and showers. Best of all was the food and restaurant crew. Thanks to the kitchen team killing it and the service staff for making it feel like home. Hope you all have a wonderful off-season.

The restaurant had easy parking in its lot or on the street, and there was wifi inside. We liked that it was one of the few places in town open on Sunday, with a bunch of decent beer and cider choices. Our food came pretty quickly, was made exactly as ordered, and was delicious. The staff were really friendly. The homemade baked goods in the case up front looked great, though we didn’t have room for dessert today.

We liked the pizza so much that we ate at EO twice while staying at the RV park down the street and exploring the area. They have gluten free crust, too. There’s lots of outdoor seating, but order inside before you grab a table. It gets super busy, especially on weekends. My hubby could happily have had pizza and beer there every night.
