Hunan City

Great food for a restaurant that was pretty much in the middle of no where. We were the only ones in the restaurant though, and there was no music playing, so the atmosphere was a bit awkward which is why I gave it 4 stars.

First off, the food was good, better then I expected based off the first 10 minutes of our visit. We almost left because: 1. We weren't asked what we wanted to drink for this span of time. It was 110 degrees and we were damn thirsty. 2.  When asked if we wanted refills on our water, we said yes, and got sprite back. Gross. Good luck chasing the waitress down to remedy this. 3.  Ham fried rice. It was tasty, but I have to know... Regional thing? In New England it's pork fried rice. This was little bits of pink ham.

Like I said though, meals were good. Husband got sesame chicken, pleased with it. I got cashew broccoli, loved it!! On food alone I'd give it a 4.

We enjoyed every single moment in this restaurant after a 5hr hike in the Zion national park.

It was almost 10pm and we were searching for food on the way from Zion to St. George where our motel was. When we were desperately driving into the Wendy's plaza in this small town, my bf magically saw the Hunan restaurant which  was still open!

As I walked in n asked about when they close, the owner welcomed us and said whenever you guys finish the meal, then showed us the secret Chinese-only menu. so we ordered salt n pepper steak, kung pao chicken, sichuan pork, garlic bokchoy and egg drop soup. The hot soup was as comforting as always. The steak was delicious, reminded us the free range cows we saw on the roadside, confirmed our question if the cows here taste better then the ones in California. Kung pao chicken was not quite authentic, but it was tasty, as well as the sichuan pork. It surprised me that they hav the chinese cabbage instead of the cantonese version bok choy, and that was extremely comforting after 2 days consumption of fast food straight.

The owner was chatty, as we were finishing up, he came out and talked about his old days in SF where we came from. BTW, I got the most dramatic & coincident fortune cookie saying there.

To wrap it up, it is a must stop if you are Chinese and you are on a road trip to Zion & Bryce from Vegas.
