Good quality, great selection of pizza for the buffet - the pizza chef will make any kind you request. Does get quite busy on weekend nights. More

“awesome food and great ambience”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 20, 2012 NEW

We have been here a few times now after a weekend of off roading in the area. This past weekend after two full days in Canyonlands on White Rim Road, we stopped by for burgers and Margaritas - excellent service and food. More

“Excellent choice, will dine again!”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed February 19, 2012 NEW

The Cobb salad was one of the most generous and delicious I have ever tasted. Even though my wife and I were hungry after hiking we were almost full after splitting a salad. We had the Ramon pizza, which was satisfying. The speed of our takeout could not be beat. We will surely be back. More

“Good for Families, Something for Everyone”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed February 19, 2012 NEW

We tried Zax during our recent trip to Moab based on a friend's recommendation. The atmosphere at Zax is casual and fun and we felt comfortable coming directly from Arches NP after a day of hiking and sightseeing. We were a family group of six, ranging from ages 5-62. Our two kids were given menus with crayons and were able... More

“Try the Greek pizza”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed February 13, 2012

Great pizza, kind of disappointing beer list, and an annoying amount of fruit flies. More

Zax's serves some of the best wood fired pizza on the planet, plus many other menu choices. They have a great all you can eat pizza buffet with a tasty salad bar and soup choices. They will make whatever you want pizza wise for the buffet, just ask. They now serve breakfast as well. If you are bit worn out... More

“Don't order the salmon. Nice place for dinner.”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed January 22, 2012

Compared to our options (the nearby sports bars) Zaks was a nice place for dinner. The service is nice and friendly and the atmosphere is pleasant. The pizza looked good, and I should've ordered it. Instead, I got the salmon and it was pretty awful -- dry and overcooked. Even though the food wasn't the greatest, it was still a... More
