Amazing experience at Basalt. We went for our wedding anniversary and the staff was so kind and welcoming. Our server Vanessa was amazing!! So friendly and attentive but not disruptive. She was knowledgeable about dishes and made excellent recommendations. We went with the diver scallops, NY strip steak, and Parmesan truffle fries. Every bite of everything was incredible. I will say, my drink was weak but tasty. But this is Utah. I got the prickly pear gin drink and it was refreshing and not too sweet. But I couldn’t taste the gin at all so maybe keep that in mind when ordering. Our night was made extra special though when they brought out a delicious chocolate mouse cake to celebrate our anniversary. It was such a beautiful dinner with an amazing view of the golf course and sunset. Amazing experience that we will talk about for a long time.
So delicious. From start to finish. The bread and honey butter were amazing! Funeral potatoes, amazing. Creamed corn was INCREDIBLE! Everything was so good and the views were awesome. Jonathan was our server and he was so friendly and warm and knew the menu so well. It was all around a great experience and we will definitely be back.
Wonderful experience all around. We tried a variety of things:
Duck tacos: 9/10. Delicious flavor but the meat itself could have been a bit hotter
Apple salad: 10/10: I’ve never had anything like this before. The presentation was beautiful and the salad was unique and delicious.
Lavender Chicken: 8.5/10. The lavender really came through, which was a super unique flavor, and the chicken was cooked very well. It might have been just personal preference, but I thought the whole dish needed a touch of salt. I also thought there was too much oatsotto for the dish to be truly balanced. I could have done with less of that and more chicken.
Fries: 10/10 no notes. Absolutely delicious.
Dessert: both desserts were light and unique. A perfect end to our meal.
The staff was very attentive and polite, willing to engage in friendly conversation and offer up their own preferences when asked. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking to celebrate a special occasion!
The Basalt experience is top notch. The food is real, elevated and the service top notch. I found everything to be excellent. I had that waygu, diver scallops, ceviche, the funeral potatoes are to die for. The stone fruit salad was a dance across my tongue. Seriously go to Basalt you will not be disappointed.
First of all, the answer is yes. The question is, should you eat here? An amazing experience with phenomenal food. This is definitely on the high end of dining in the St. George area located at the Black Desert resort. They have a decent size menu and it is very professional. Everything from ribeye (even wagyu) to lamb, to duck, to several different chicken dishes. Salads. Expect to pay for the experience, as the average ticket price per person is probably around $100-$125. But, it’s worth it. The views are amazing. The staff is so helpful. The bread and butter is to die for. It’s hard not to get too full on those before your starting appetizer or main course comes out. They offer Coke products and have many alcohol drinks to choose from. I had a phenomenal experience and would highly recommend giving this place a try.
I do have to mention that on the menu is a dish of creamed corn listed as a side. Who knew that you could get gourmet creamed corn and that it would be the highlight of your meal. Amazing.
