St. George is a fun and affordable trip for families. Close to major attractions like Zion National Park, and Bryce Canyon, and full of hidden gems like Snow Canyon State Park, and the St. George Dinosaur Discovery Site at Johnson Farm, there is plenty of activities for the whole family. Here are a couple of our favorite family-friendly restaurants in the St. George area, that everyone will enjoy while visiting.
1. Durangos
A southern Utah favorite, Durgangos is a casual dining Mexican restaurant. Similar to Chipotle, you choose what items you want in your meal at the counter, so you can be sure your kids will like everything in their meal. Durangos offers both small and regular sized portions, so you can choose what’s best for your family. Make sure to try the sweet pork option, in either the salad or quesadilla, it’s a local favorite.
