    The bad nachos
    Hugo B.

    One things for sure some of the food was good. My associate got The Griz and he says it's amazing. But I personally got the half order of nachos and they were cold, and had no flavor whatsoever and it was a lot of food. But besides that everything else was good. The service was really good and we had at nice view of Jackson lake. Overall this was a good experience (minus the nachos).

    Parmesan fries

    Friendly service for an impromptu stop. Only ordered a drink and the fries. Despite looking tasty, the fries tasted stale as if they had been out for a while just waiting for someone to get them. If you eat at the Trapper Grill, they have a really great view of the lake and mountains.

    Finished plate - Teton Cheesesteak

    My family and I were coming from Yellowstone National Park. We came up to this restaurant grill before we camped at the campground. Reservations must be made on website to acquire a camping spot. No reservations for the restaurant grill. I liked how the restaurant sits with a nice view of the lake and mountain. Great scenery to enjoy the food. I ordered the Teton cheesesteak, it was soft and enjoyed every single bite with an empty plate in return. Wow oh wow, the sandwich was good. Good item to try if you are stopping by!!

    My lunch (small beef and bean taco salad) was good. Dining companions also had a good experience. We had a short wait for lunch, which was ok for us at the time. Friendly servers. The most stunning thing about the place was the view. Cannot be beat!

    Parmesan fries
    Amanda B.

    The views were great, but the food was just alright. We started with the Parmesan fries, which were underwhelming. They would've been better if they had something to help the parm and parsley actually stick to the fries. For our mains, everyone at the table ordered sirloins, and they took over an hour to come out. Each steak was to be cooked to different temps, but yet they came out at separate times. I did enjoy my steak, but my potatoes were lukewarm at best. Not the best experience, but there aren't many options around here so I'd probably find myself back here when in the area again. There's another more upscale restaurant connected to this one, but they share the same kitchen, so I'm not sure if that one would be any better!

    Taco Salad with beef and black beans (side of ranch dressing) and a cup of chili.
    Michael F.

    Had a wonderful time sitting out on the deck with a great view of the lake. Taco salad with beef and black beans tasted great, but nothing set it apart from any other taco salad I've ever had. Chili was phenomenal! Service was fast and attentive. We would be back for the view alone.

    We were staying in Moran and this was one of our few dinner options. The menu prices definitely reflect the stunning view while you dine, however the food was average. The parmesan fries were basically normal/bland fries with thick Parmesan sprinkled on top, which fell off whenever you took a bite. Me, my cousin, and sister all got steak, which were all to be cooked at different temperatures. However, it was a bit strange because our server brought the steaks out all at different times.

    We were returning from a day at Yellowstone and plan to have dinner at this place because the view. The views of the mountains are breathtaking. We're so glad we captured this location. There are two places to choose from we selected trapper's grill. We ended up splitting the tacos, which were flavorful. They were very filling. There were three of them and the fish in them were big pieces of fish. I got a salad which I thought was over priced for the size. My son got the nachos for four people she warned us about the size and he did a great job of taking them out. There wasn't a lot of protein in them seemed to be a lot of chips, but it was a fun night just to watch him. Try to take them out. The service was good could have been better. I have a pet peeve though about removing the plates from the table when you're done eating them and they seem to have just forgot that. When she brought me the bill, I didn't even have room on the table to actually look at it and you sign the copy because the dishes were so high. But let me go back to the view. The view was spectacular. The drinks were good. The food was good and put the Bill after a long day and Yellowstone. View is a 5, service 3, food 3.5 Caution: when you leave, be sure to follow the signs because we saw multiple animals along the road and a huge elk, moose be sure to go the speed limit. It's very dark.

    We went to the Trapper Grill. It's a great spot to go after a hike. The view is stunning. The patio isn't very big, so if you want to sit outside, ask for it but be prepared to wait. We went two days in a row after exploring the park. Both days were far from different experiences. We had the same waitress both days and her attitude was night and day. First day we went it was great. She was great. I got the trout tacos. Those were amazing. So good. It's pretty big too! The second day we were seated inside. The table did not look clean at all. The hostess actually cleaned it up as she was sitting us. The glasses were dirty. When our waitress came I politely asked if I could get a different glass because mine looked soooo dirty like it hadn't been through a dishwasher. She immediately went into defense mode saying that they don't polish the cups there. I just said oh ok. She swapped it with a cup from a table behind me, honestly I don't even know if she swapped the cup because it was behind me. She filled my water to the brim so I couldn't look at the glass. Oh well. I got the pesto chicken and caprese sandwich and it wasn't that great. The chicken was dry and the food sandwich tasted weird. Fries were amazing. My friend got the fish and chips and they said it was delicious.

    Ranchers pie
    Will W.

    I recently dined at the Trapper Grill at The Signal Lodge. I was out for a hike in the park and my family was kinda hungry so we decided to stop for a quick bite. I enjoyed the dining experience but honestly it was just ok but it was good for what it was (being a restaurant run by Aramark inside a national park (the day before the summer season ends). The service was just ok which again I understand why but the waitress was friendly. The inside of the restaurant felt more like a cafeteria than a lodge. And me the food was nothing to write home about. I had high hopes for the huckleberry short rib. I thought it was good, but I don't think cooking the short rib in barbecue sauce was a good idea as I couldn't taste the sauce and the short rib, haven't had no distinct flavor. Perhaps using the sauce as a finish would better compliment, the flavor of the meat. I thought the ranchers pie (basically a shepherds pie) was much better. the mashed potatoes were delicious and the beef was tender but to me it was more like a pot roast more. Would I eat here again? Sure... If I had to. Do I think it's amazing? No. Overall it's ok. Just ok. I've had better food in National Parks before.

    Good food. Decent customer service and a great local spot to just stop in. Very cute Decor on the inside. Tons of open parking

    Grilled cheese and side salad
    Noelle W.

    While staying at the signal mountain lodge, the trapper grill and deadman's bar was a really convenient dinner choice! As a part of 2 getting early dinner each night, we never had to wait for seats. A few times we even got seats on the outside balcony area which was so lovely! Over the course of a few nights I had wine and beer and ciders, all delicious. And I tried many food options- the veggie burger, Caesar with trout (the larger size is huge!), and the grilled cheese with huckleberry - nice for lunch. We also went for a breakfast a few times - I loved the breakfast burrito and appreciated the vegetarian option! All the employees were very nice.

    Incredible view of jackson lake and surrounding mountains! We went right around sunset so we were able to enjoy the view while waiting for our meal. We did wait quite a while for our food, but while we were waiting our server was making sure we had full drinks. The food was so good!! Made up for all the waiting. already planning our next trip.

    They say they allow dogs but they don't. Very disappointing. We drove a long way to eat out on the outdoor deck with our dogs.

Gas isn't always easy to find in the Tetons. Outside the store are gas pumps if you are running low. Also in the area is Signal Mountain Lodge, a campground, a boat launch and a hiking trail.

It wasn't exactly where I would have thought to look. There was no help or suggestion offered--just an expression that seemed to say, "Hurry up and order." She appeared to be training someone else, and that girl actually seemed like she wanted to help, but it felt like she was discouraged from doing so because the trainer wanted me to figure it out myself. Unfortunately, that interaction made it a first and last visit for me. The location and early opening time were convenient, but the pre-made breakfast sandwiches weren't very good, and the latte lacked both flavor and sweetness. Overall, nothing to brag about here.
