Dewey's in Moab caught me off guard. We were originally headed to another restaurant and once we saw they were closed, we jetted to Dewey's.
It may have been the $3.75 Winter Pints that grabbed my attention initially. IN THIS ECONOMY?! But in all seriousness, I had been wanting to check out this place. And we ended up having a great overall experience.
First off, the restaurant is massive with high ceilings and a dedicated bar next door separate from the dining room. The menu is fairly big with burgers, sandwiches, entrées, salads, apps, pasta, etc. Not normally a fan of the Cheesecake Factory style menus, but it seems to work here.
Service was fantastic. Of course I can't remember her name, but our server is married to the chef! They've been working here for a long time and she was such a sweetheart. She knew the menu like the back of her hand.
HOUSEMADE MEATLOAF ($17.49) // Slow roasted meatloaf finished on the grill and topped with mushrooms, brown gravy and bleu cheese crumbles. I thought the toppings were going to overpower the delicate meatloaf, but nope I was wrong. It's an interesting pairing that I never would've thought of and works very well together. The meat itself was tender. The rest of the ingredients brought a little zip to a standard meatloaf. Very good!
You get A LOT of food here. This came with a dinner roll, baked potato and mixed vegetables. I have to admit, the sides were fairly lackluster. Then again, these are pretty basic items so it's to be expected.
Definitely adding this to my list of reliable restaurants in Moab!
