98 Center Moab

We recently had lunch at 98 center while visiting Moab. We actually entered and left two other restaurants that were on our list of maybes before coming here, I’m so glad we waited. First, the service was excellent. The servers were prompt, adorable (as someone else here said), attentive without being intrusive, easy, casual service. Second, the food was very good. We got the vegetarian deviled eggs, the bahn mi salad, pork belly app and a side of sticky rice. The stand out was the salad, I think it was the best salad I’ve ever had! Cocktails were outstanding. It’s a small restaurant that offers some outdoor seating, great view of the red rocks from the restaurant. Highly recommend, would return anytime.

Food was really yummy, the chicken Philly was surprisingly good and good cozy atmosphere. The service was very good However the owner not paying their staff a living wage and expecting 25% tips and 18% on togos takes a star away. Keep the 18% “service fee” in mind if you place an order. The staff was fantastic and they deserve to be paid accordingly by their employer.

10/10. You must give this place a try when visiting Moab. Honestly, I don’t think there’s anything bad on the menu. From the drinks to the food, to the atmosphere and staff — it was all great. My group of 5 were all satisfied. The Vietnamese iced coffee is delicious, the yuzu lemonade was bright and zingy. The Báhn Mì AND the cheesesteak were the best I’ve ever had.. how many places can you say that about? My friend got the mushroom ‘cheesesteak’ and also loved it. The salad and broth were also stellar. I will definitely return every time I visit Moab.. and dream of it in between those visits 🤤

⸻ ⭐️⭐️⭐️☆☆ (3 out of 5) Excellent food — disappointing and misleading billing policy. The food at 98 Center is outstanding. The vegan cheesesteak was creative, flavorful, and genuinely among the best I’ve had anywhere. I have nothing but praise for the kitchen. However, the way the bill was handled left a bad impression. The large sandwich was $20, the small was $16 + $4 for a gluten-free bun. When I went to pay, the cashier mentioned there’s an automatic 18% gratuity on takeout orders — but didn’t say it would be calculated after tax. The receipt later showed an 18% “service charge” of $7.20 added on top of tax, bringing the total to $51.14 USD ($73.58 CAD) for two takeout sandwiches. Charging a mandatory gratuity on tax — and on takeout — is simply misleading. Maybe that policy made

I have had a lot of pho in my life, saw the high review rating so I was excited to try this place. The cubed beef, chopped noodles, flat broth notes, and missing sides of fresh vegetables made it feel more like a fancy instant pho bowl from Costco. Not the experience I hoped for, but give it a try and maybe it will hit better for you. $20/bowl, tourist destination, and in Utah. I get it, but cubed beef come on…
