Such an incredible spot, awesome kids menu so good for families who like to go out and enjoy a nice meal. Cocktails were wonderful, just all around our entire family, our little girls included, found this to be our favorite spot in Dubois. read more

Steak was tough and hard to cut. It was definitely not worth the price. It must have been an end piece did not look like a ribeye. It was topped with a frozen slab of butter. The vegetables tasted like they were from a can. The baked potato was a baked potato nothing special and it had a slab of frozen butter under the sour cream. Overpriced and wasn't worth it to me. read more

Great spot in downtown Dubois. Staples in for dinner and was pleasantly surprised. Food was really good, wait staff was on point, and the ambiance was nice. Enjoyed Lone Buffalo will be back next time we are in town! read more

The bread and honey butter and cheese curd starters were very good. The sauce that came with the curds was like nothing I've hd before. It was good, but they were even better with ranch. The medallions were cooked perfectly and were SO GOOD! My partner enjoyed the Cajun pasta as well. The wine and whiskey sour were great too! Service was excellent, everyone was very attentive, easy to joke with and very pleasant. It was a very casual atmosphere, yet fine dining experience all in one. Definitely a place to try when in Dubois!! read more

So we stayed at an air bb rental in town and realized that many of the food places are closed on Tuesday in town. This place was open, so we decided to give it a shot since it was the day before we left and did not want to buy any more groceries. I was not sure since I had mixed reviews about not very good service if you were nor a local. I will say that was not the case with our experience at all. I called ahead to see if we needed a reservation, and they said not if we were coming over now and it was just the two of us. We arrived close to 5 pm, and we were seated immediately. Note that it did start filling up closer to 6 pm and was just about full by 630. The staff was informative, gave suggestions, and was friendly and attentive. We did poutine fries that were really good. The fries were super crispy, and the gravy provided the salt. We had eaten elsewhere previously, and they salted the fries and then put salted gravy, and it was not good, so we appreciated the restraint here. We also had the deep-fried Brussel sprouts with goat cheese, and this was super good. The mashed potatoes and gravy were good ok the bison plate, but I found the bison to be way under seasoned and screaming for salt and pepper. The bison was cooked perfectly med rare as requested, so that was a plus, and we just added salt and pepper from the table. I thought the gravy was the same on the poutine fries and would provide the extra salt, but it was not. We did order the peach cobbler, and it was served in a very hot skillet with ice cream. However, it was ice cold on the inside, which was a bummer - the flavor was good for canned peaches. Overall, it was a pretty decent meal and a fun ambiance with animal heads mounted all over the walls (vegan animal lover warning - not the place for you). If I was back in this very small town, I would go back for a good meal and friendly service read more

Absolutely fantastic! I have to say, I was very pleasantly surprised! We were traveling to Yellowstone and stopped in Dubois overnight in a place a block down. Food was fantastic, we had cheese curds as an appetizer, I had their special, kids had a nice choice of kids meals. Beer was nice and cold, service was good (although they were understaffed) The whole vibe was 5 stars! I absolutely enjoyed our dinner, my husband and I had a couple of beers and it was $100 which was very well worth it! Thank you sooooo much for a much needed lovely dinner after a very long day traveling from TX read more

We visited Lone Buffalo last month. There was some concern about their open times. I am glad to say they have corrected their online info to correctly say they are open from 5PM to 9PM. Since they have updated their open times, I will change my review to 4 stars. read more

Delightful evening with my Sweetie after long day. Pork cordon Bleu moist & flavorful. Service attentive without being overbearing. Not busy when we were there but filled up quickly. Will recommend & hope to return. read more

The Lone Buffalo Steakhouse - Good space. Not crowded but filled up quickly - Steakhouses Near Me - Dubois, Wyoming

Good food. Environment was bland. Not authentic or kitschy or fancy, just some taxidermy on the walls in a sort of Western strip mall sort of way. Lots of senior citizens in attendance - I guess a nice-ish restaurant in a small town will often be that way. Certainly not a nightlife kind of place. Sides good. Salad excellent (simple, fresh, great croutons), house-made dressing excellent also. Good steak for sure. Not equal to the best I've had in the west - but good. Cut a little thin (to me). Claimed prime beef on the menu - decent price if so. Got a good deal on a good bottle of wine; by the glass menu was pretty poor. I am learning that asking for the best bottle in the place or what's not listed is the way to go in rural restaurants - often will get it at cost or low markup. I'd come back for sure - but I'd probably try something else first to see what else is in town. Recommended if you want a nice-ish steak joint that doesn't disappoint. read more

We stopped here as we were driving to Yellowstone. The staff was very accommodating even though they were very busy on the evening that we were there. We didn't realize that many of the places in this area close early. Thankfully they were able to squeeze us in. The food was delicious! My son had a steak and he said it was delicious. The biscuits are amazing! I had the pasta with chicken and it was very yummy and it was a big portion. I also had a side salad and it was very fresh. My son let me try the asparagus and his fries and they were both very yummy. The fries are amazing. read more

Been preciously and the food is good. This weekend we went at 8:10 and they sent us away saying they were closed. She acted liked we were in the wrong for even showing up. Plenty of tables were chatting away waiting for food and the sign said open. For what they charge I would think they'd try a little harder! read more

The place was wonderful! Nice atmosphere, clean, tables were sufficiently far apart. Even though we were fully vaccinated against COVID, it made us feel quite safe. Our server was Chevelle and she was very much on the ball, making sure our food came exactly at the right time. She was a great experience. The food itself was superb! We had fried calamari and it was cooked perfectly, as were the steaks. Our dinner salad was very fresh and very tasty. The wine list was nice and varied though not extensive. Still one could find a good pairing with the food. Great good and superb service for very reasonable prices. I can highly recommend this place. read more

Alright so here in Dubois WY visiting the National Park. Not a whole lot of dining options in Dubois. That being said I've come here twice so far and I haven't even been here a whole week. The Lone Buffalo Steakhouse has been fantastic each time we've come. Their drinks are very good, my pick is the whiskey sour, very good and they don't skimp on cheap cherries either. Service has been great both times and everything has come out quickly. First time I had the pork chop, best pork chop ever! And the mashed potatoes are really good also. My girlfriend had the ny strip, it had good flavor but was a little thin for me, I would take the pork chop over the steak. Don't get me wrong steak was good, but pork chop was amazing! Also tried their seafood pasta (yeah I know, seafood pasta in Wyoming at a steak house, I was tired of meat) I was pleasantly surprised, really good! The shrimp were fresh and huge. Pasta was fresh, everything was on point. Even their dinner salad that comes with each meal is really good, only complaint I have is the plate they serve it on could be bigger. I feel like I'm playing operation trying not to spill salad on the table. Overall excellent experience both times, not cheap, but I left feeling I got my monies worth. read more

FANTASTIC FOOD and SERVICE! Me and my husband were on our way home from the Sturgis rally and stopped for the night in Dubois. Thinking about dinner we stumbled upon this place and knew right away we couldn't pass up having dinner here. During this COVID time it was refreshing to be welcomed in and treated with the utmost respect, mask or no mask. Thank you Lone Buffalo, we will be back! read more

Showed up for dinner on a Friday evening. No complaints. Everything was really good: food, service and drinks.

After last night, I was ready to leave a fabulous review of this restaurant...the food was great, the wine selections by the bottle were fantastic and my server Angela was super attentive, professional and overall provided excellent service. The experience was so great, that I made a reservation to come here AGAIN tonight. After arriving and sitting at the table for 10 minutes, a waiter that was not responsible for my table, stopped by to give me some water and said my server would be there "momentarily" (I was indeed very grateful he stopped by even though I wasn't in his section!) After a few more minutes I seriously considered walking out, and eating elsewhere. When she did finally arrive, I got the impression (and maybe I was completely wrong) that this particular sever doesn't value "single" customers so much...maybe we arent deemed worthy of the time and effort - as there is only one person ordering food and drink. The previous night, I happened to order and enjoy the most expensive bottle on the menu and a 12 oz ribeye - and would argue my $200 tab was higher than most couples around me. After this perceived apathy toward my "table of one", I decided to go smaller and have wine by the glass and a pasta. The table next to me (that ordered the same dish as I did from the same server) received a salad that was piled high with the goodness I received the night before...mine barely covered the plate (see previous reviewer talking about playing "operation" trying to eat the salad there! )The pasta was brought out before I was done with the salad - thankfully the bolognese was actually pretty damn good. All in all, the server may have swept by to check on me once or twice - even then, it was while she was still in motion on her way to another table. To summarize: if you look at my other reviews, you will see that I tend to praise the restaurants and service that are deserving of it ...I am not a complainer. I do believe however that the experience to be had here, is highly dependent upon the server you have. Given the opportunity, ask for Angela The hostess was polite, hard working and professional as well. Overall (with exception of the experiment tonight) I would honestly recommend this restaurant. Would also strongly suggest to make a reservation beforehand. read more

Ok- so, I honestly wasn't prepared for how fabulous this restaurant would be. I am from CA and have been to some of the nicest/most well rated restaurants there are. Hands down- this is one of the best restaurants I have been to. The service - immaculate. The cocktails- perfect. The food - unbelievable. This restaurant is a true gem! read more

The Lone Buffalo Steakhouse - Steakhouses Near Me - Dubois, Wyoming

Updated per the owner's comment: please don't go here if you're from out of town! They do not like visitors and do not want to make the proper precautions for said patrons. Offering to put on masks after you enter an establishment and expose yourself (yes, I wore a mask the whole time I was in there except when actively eating) is not a solution. If you're from Dubois, go for it! But anyone else, stay away! Do not go here if you have concerns about COVID! The food was tasty, but not a single server or staff member had a mask on. Well, technically they had them on, but they were all around their necks- definitely not covering their nose and mouths. The bar tender had neither a mask nor gloves on. I hate to leave less than stellar reviews, but I feel like this type of information is so important to share whilst we are in the midst of a pandemic and in a town that has a lot of passers-through. Obviously it's the choice of the restaurant, but it's also the choice of the patron to stay away if they don't feel comfortable with the lack of precautions. Stay safe everyone! read more

Stopped by this place on our way through to GTNP - three stars for fantastic food, but not a one employee was wearing a face covering or mask - hostess, servers, kitchen staff - so definitely NOT COVID-19 kosher. Also, they seemed to struggle moving people through. Was told a 30 minute wait to be seated, turned out to be 60 mins, and then after ordering immediately upon sitting down it took an hour to get our food. *Update: we were wearing our masks at all times when we weren't consuming our food, including my three year old and including when we went to the restroom in the middle of our meal, and when we were sitting for 30 minutes in your front waiting area while your hostess, standing at the reception desk, did not wear her mask at any time. Also, wearing your masks only when your customers ask you to defeats the public heath purpose of mask wearing...as your employees will continue to touch their mask and face as they remove and replace their mask for customers, and then touch plates, check holders, credit cards, etc. if you were really concerned about the health of your 900 person town, you wouldn't wait for customers to ask you to wear masks and you would require customers to wear masks in your waiting room. read more

I found a little piece of steak heaven in Dubois, WY! Let me just say that after driving all the way from Florida to visit the national parks, we made several stops along the way and ate at many different places, this was by far the best dinner we had in the past several days. The food was absolutely amazing and very fresh. If you're driving past Dubois, don't past this steakhouse up, it's worth the wait! The staff is extremely friendly and very sweet. Great food, great company, friendly locals and amazing service, that's what you'll get at this steakhouse! read more

Over priced for mediocre quality. Pasta is cooked early and is reheated. Service is good. A bit noisy.

Our family of five had a lovely dinner here on our way home from Yellowstone National Park. The manager and staff worked hard to ensure we had a pleasant experience on a very busy Friday night. We all enjoyed our meals and their presentation. The pasta tasted home made, the chicken and steak were cooked perfectly. The kids enjoyed the special names given for the kids menu items:). We look forward to our next visit! read more

We found this place on our way through town. What a gem! Seriously, I can't say enough great things about it. We liked it so much, we came back through Dubois for dinner a few days later. The steaks are hand cut on sight and the pasta is made fresh every day. Absolutely can't miss the whiskey sours! We were fortunate to have Lilah both visits. She incredibly professional; friendly without being intrusive. If you find yourself in Dubois, this is a must. read more

Wow. Amazing restaurant. I'm spent the last 20 years in New Orleans and love good food. Great steak. Great pork chops. The carrot cake slice is big as a football and I'm not joking. The owner is so nice. Husband cooks and wife waits on you. Staff is very friendly. Wine list is amazing for a large city let alone a WY town of 700. The decor is really comfortable. Fine dining without the pretentious. Lots of locals. read more

Great food. Good people. There was a mix up with my food and it took extra long but they made it right! I will go back for dinner tonight if they are open. Hamburgers and fries and decent wine. I'll be back! That's it! Going early is the best. You get to know the staff. read more

Husband had the Lone Buffalo Old Fashioned, and it was the BEST he ever had. I had the Montana huckleberry mule and it was amazing. The Brussel sprouts were some of the best I ever had. The steaks did not disappoint and the whole family was very happy with the food and service. My daughter managed to finagle room for some fresh home-made ice cream which was phenomenal. The service and staff were great and super friendly highly recommend. read more

People! Go here! Best food in the Dubois region by far! We held our son's grooms dinner at the Lone Buffalo Steakhouse and were simply blown away not only by the magnificent food (!!) but also by the service we received. Brian and his staff went above and beyond...we all noticed! Some of the guys from the wedding party wanted a particular beer (who knew?) that wasn't on the drink menu, the Lone Buffalo staff went and bought it for them from a nearby liquor store....during dinner! We didn't ask them to, they just did it! The food....OMG! The appetizers that were served during happy hour were sooo good (brussel sprouts, cheese curds), and the drinks were fancy if you wanted them to be! The dinner was lovely. The steaks were superb, chicken piccata was delightful as was everything else on the menu. The pasta (that we had earlier in the week) was DELICIOUS too! We topped off the evening with desserts. Everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves and we can't thank Brian and his superb staff enough! It was the best way to start off a jam-packed wedding weekend! read more

Just finished a truly great dinner at The Lone Buffalo Steakhouse. I've eaten at steakhouses across the country and this stands right there with the big names. The ribeye was perfectly prepared and delicious. The service was less formal than the big names, but still professional while having a friendly feel. The Old Fashion drink I ordered was excellent. This is a must visit place if you're in Dubois. read more

Full disclosure, we opted for takeout because most patrons were seated rather close to each other, and mask wearing was practically nonexistent. The ribeye steak was absolutely fantastic. My wife doesn't eat meat and had to settle for baked and mashed potatoes because for some asinine reason, the restaurant refused to allow the seafood pasta (or any pasta or salad for that matter) to be ordered as a takeout option. read more
