    Kids approved!  My son loved watching the bartender shake his chocolate milk now he'll only order it "shaken, not stirred

    Our family had a wonderful lunch/ brunch at The Bistro in Jackson, Wyoming! Every meal we ordered was absolutely delicious, and we literally cleaned our plates. The food was fresh, flavorful, and exceeded our expectations. What truly made the experience memorable, though, was Carlos (I believe he was the manager or overseeing the front of the house). He took the time to check in on us, shared a few stories, and genuinely made us feel welcomed. That kind of personal hospitality is rare and really made our visit special. The restaurant is attached to a beautiful hotel that also looked like a great place to stay. We would definitely come back the next time we're in Jackson. Great food, outstanding service, and an all-around fantastic experience. Highly recommend!

    Always serving up the most delicious food to be found in Jackson Hole

    If you're in Jackson Hole and don't dine at The Bistro, you're missing one of the true culinary gems of the valley. From the moment you walk in, the atmosphere is electric yet warm -- a beautiful Parisian-inspired bistro vibe blended with the charm of Jackson Hole. The space is stylish, lively, and inviting, with a stunning bar, elegant dining areas, and an energy that makes you want to stay all night. The service is exceptional -- attentive, polished, and genuinely welcoming. You feel taken care of from start to finish, and it elevates the entire experience. Many guests rave about the friendly, professional staff and consistently excellent service, and it absolutely shows. And the food -- outstanding. Every dish is beautifully prepared, flavorful, and thoughtfully crafted. From classic French-inspired favorites to perfectly executed modern bistro cuisine, everything tastes fresh, refined, and deeply satisfying. The cocktails are superb, the wine selection is impressive, and the entire menu delivers a true culinary experience. What makes The Bistro truly special is how it combines sophistication with comfort. It feels upscale yet relaxed, elegant yet welcoming -- the perfect setting whether for a memorable dinner, a lively evening, or a refined date night. Many diners call it a favorite in Jackson Hole for its delicious food, fun atmosphere, and unforgettable dining experience -- and now I completely understand why. Simply put: incredible food, outstanding service, beautiful ambiance, and an experience worth repeating again and again. The Bistro is not just a meal -- it's a highlight of Jackson Hole.

    We tried this restaurant out since we were staying in the cloudveil. We were looking for an easy dinner on a snowy night. It was a little too fancy for us with our little. The ambience wasn't as nice as the price tag. I think we just got a weird half booth seat in a galley hallway setting next to the entrance of the kitchen. I didn't understand the crayons and paper tablecloths but my little enjoyed coloring. Caesar salad was good along with the vegetable soup which might have been tomato. My husband got the trout which was thinner than expected. We wished that they had a kids menu with pizza but we made die with the pasta.

    I was really looking forward to dining at this restaurant, especially given the upscale setting and the great vibe of the hotel itself--but unfortunately, the overall experience initially didn't live up to the price point or expectations aside from one stand out: Malachi, whose service recovery was exceptional. We started our evening at the rooftop bar around 6 PM and were surprised by how long it took to be acknowledged, especially since it wasn't particularly busy. It took about 20 minutes before a server came by, and while our drinks were fine, the service was not. We had a dinner reservation downstairs and were already running late, but when it came time to pay, our server, Daniela, was dismissive--she tossed the bill holder to my friend and then took another 10 minutes to run our payment while attending to every other table first. It felt unnecessarily inattentive. Once we joined the rest of our party for dinner, the experience didn't improve much. Drinks were slow to arrive, and our server disappeared for a long stretch, to the point where my cousin had to go find him just to place our food order. That said-- Malachi did his best to turn the night around. He came by to check in on us, and when I mentioned our concerns, immediately offered a sincere apology, brought out hot, fresh bread, and made sure our food was expedited so we could make our next activity at 8 PM. That level of attention and responsiveness was greatly appreciated. Food-wise, the Caesar salad was outstanding--easily a highlight. The peach salad was decent, but nothing remarkable. Most of our party was satisfied with their meal, but the steamed spinach was really salty. They did replace it and let the chef know. My branzino was disappointing in that it was not very flavorful. My friend's trout was excellent. At the end of the meal, they wanted to comp us with some desserts but unfortunately we didn't have time. But the server swiped our card....and charged us for the dessert. So he has to cancel out the bill and rerun it...and now we're late for our 8pm event. In summary, while the atmosphere and a standout staff member showed promise, the inconsistent service left a lot to be desired for a high-end dining experience.

    Wow! Where to begin with this lovely place! We were seated immediately and had an indoor table near the windows. The wait staff are friendly and efficient which was appreciated. The menu was great and had something for everyone. The bread basket was so yummy and we had to resist more bread. I had the chicken with a lovely corn slaw base and my fiance tried the duck (I believe!), which both were so decadent and delicious. 10/10 recommend trying this restaurant if you are in the area!

    We had breakfast here. We had the Bistro Breakfast and the Jackson Omelette. Both were delicious. The feel of the restaurant is French Brasserie and unlike any other restaurant in the Jackson area. Service was very good and attentive. I highly recommend giving them a visit!

    Chocolate bread pudding
    Rosie R.

    Fantastic dinner experience here. The outdoor seating area had shades that pulled down to protect from the sun, and our waiter had a great personality. We shared the tuna tartare appetizer, which was good, but my ricotta pillow entree, and my friend's short rib, were delicious. We also shared the chocolate bread pudding for dessert and it was equally fabulous.

    Pork Chop
    Paul K.

    Order the Pork Chop! ...and the Old Fashioned! Wow! If you are in Jackson, take time to visit The Bistro! Food and service were amazing. Both kids have celiac and the staff and restaurant were very accommodating highlighting GF and Vegan meals on the menu. Order the Pork Chop.

    Decent Caesar salad (1/2)
    Daria S.

    Expensive for the quality of the food. Food is good but not great. Meals run about $100 per person. The scallops were overcooked and rubbery. The sauce also overpowered the flavor of the scallops. Caesar salad was decent. Braised short ribs were good too. Cocktails were good. Service was excellent. Décor is lovely and modern.

    Moules Frites (Mussles and french fries)
    Will W.

    The Bistro on Center Street in Jackson, WY is a delicious French inspired restaurant in the lobby of the Cloudveil Hotel the menu ranging from traditional wishes, such as coq au vin and duck confit to pork chops. There are some delicious seafood items as well from trout to barramundi. I ordered the calamari and moules frites (mussels and french fries). I thought the calamari was fabulous- super good light and delicious. The moules frites were also super delicious fresh and flavorful. The muscles were some of the best I have had cooked in a garlic butter sauce with cherry tomatos. I have never tried the two together before, but the tomatos added a subtle sweetness to the dish. I was seated at the bar. I ordered a Wyoming Whiskey boulevardier cocktail. It was OK. I thought it was a bit heavy on the vermouth but other than that it was pretty good. The interior of the restaurant is a little bit industrial, but it does a good job incorporating. A Parisian feel similar to other bistros and cafés in France. The service was pretty good, but the restaurant was busy when I was there. Overall, I would say my den experience was an 8.5 out of 10. I will definitely return to try other items on the menu.

    So here's the scoop...37 of us swamped the restaurant at 5:30! Why? We were all on 6 day bus (which…read morewas great! The name is disguised as "an entry point with a first number") tour starting at Mt. Rushmore with multiple stops in between ending at the Grand Tetons. This was our final ending meal together. First, I know the management prepared for us. We had to select the entrees a couple of days before. Second, we were seated next to the circular wall towards the street, very accommodating. Noise factor was good to excellent because of the high ceilings (the industrial look you know with exposed duct work now popular.) Third, finally the food what you really want to know... All of us had the house salad. It was lightly dressed which I appreciated since some restaurants over dress or use a harsh vinaigrette. I had their beef steaks which the tour written description was a fillet, restaurant menu list as a ribeye. I 'm not going to complain because it was accurately seared. I asked for mine medium and another asked for medium well. Both were slightly under which was good. Presentation was excellent they did change from sweet potatoes to a couscous ( I think) which was a good switch and tasty. My spouse had the rainbow trout and it was amazing! It a good size, as again presentation was great! Tasted good too! Not dry. Another person had the truffle pasta and there was a poached egg on top. What a surprise! They said it tasted good! If you want someone on the other menu section of yelp list just what was offered to us with a detailed description.The dessert was their donut holes (very crispy and tasty) with three dipping sauces. We had soft drinks and there was a double pour. Every thing came out in a timely manner! Amazing again for such a large group. Check'm out, they're good!

Unfortunately, the bar was painfully slow. Our first round of drinks took about 15 minutes, and the second took closer to 30 minutes after ordering. We eventually had to check in to make sure they were even coming. The food was fine, but not something we'd come back for. The elk pasta lacked the depth and richness you expect from a bolognese. The trout--poblano stuffed and curry-prepared--was an interesting idea, but the curry completely overpowered the fish, making the dish feel unbalanced. We had curry-dusted trout at The Blue Lion earlier in the week that was far better. (One of the best trout meals I've ever had.)

A unique setting in a wine / liquor store with a tapas bar in the back, amongst the wine racks and liquor bottles. Long communal tables and sitting hip to hip with foodies, locals, and people meeting total strangers. It is good conversation with everyone sharing stories, not once was politics mentioned. Reservations are not taken, instead you will find the host making people scoot to make room for new arrivals at the long tables. Our servers were spot-on with service, drinks and sharing her favorites. It is cozy and casual, people meeting people. The spirits here are for the pros with knowledge of wine, beer, spirits and bubbles. We started with the wild mushroom mozzarella with balsalmic butter, parmesan and balsalmic glaze served on crunchy baguettes. It was unbelievably flavored and tasty, a great start to the night and must have! The Spanish salad with arugula, apple, fennel, almonds, manchego and a honey-sherry vinegarette was good but not on par with the other dishes. The tuna crudo with cucumber, arugula, crunchy grains, orange wedges, citrous vinegarette, fried capers and preserved lemon was light, a real palate cleanser, and refreshing. A pleasant surprise and would order again. The lamb pintxos was our final selection and a great dish to end the night on. The fork tender lamb tenderloin was served on 2 skewers with mojo verde, Spanish aoili, and pickled red onions on crisp baguette slices. Another Homerun! The menu changes frequently and the tapas allow you to try several different delectable dishes. It encourages sharing and forces you to open up and try different dishes. Hands-down my favorite food and conversation while visiting Jackson, WY. To the staff here at Binn 22, congrats on a unique and completely fabulous dinner and concept. I can't wait to return and try many other options on a truly innovative menu. If you haven't been here, only one word, WHY?

    This was probably the best meal we had while visiting Yellowstone and Grand Teton National Parks…read more We had a day to explore the area and Grok (of all things/places) recommended visiting Victor and Driggs for the day. Kids had chicken tenders and the steak and fries. Both kids enjoyed their meal. The chicken tenders were huge and kid got 3 of them. The steak was about 5oz, which was a decent size for the kid. It came pre-cut, so the kiddo didn't have to handle a huge steak knife to cut it--which was nice. Both came with a generous serving of golden French fries. Fresh cut or frozen, these fries were good! Either a second ramekin of ketchup or a larger one is definitely needed for the amount of fries served. I had the burger. It wasn't fancy--just cheese, lettuce, tomato, and onions--but it was a thick patty with fluffy bun with lots of flavor. It also came with a ton of golden fries. My mom had the BLT that didn't skimp on the pork belly. I wish the stores sold thick cut bacon like that. She said it was delicious. Hubby had the lobster roll. The kids brought the purple potato chips were the neatest thing (they were good, too). The lobster roll was perfectly dressed--not too much and not too skimpy--and tasted surprisingly fresh. This place is a little more upscale than some of the other places we've eaten at this week. We were welcomed as we were--shorts and tees. Other guests were dressed casually, not overly fancy.

The tabouli/rice that came with it was also dry and didn't have much taste.
