    Cajun Eggs Benedict*
    Katelin D.

    Recently dined in with a party of 7. Groups of 5+ are heavily encouraged to make reservations anywhere in town. Most of my party showed up 10-15 minutes late and staff was friendly about it. Service was prompt when everyone arrived. Drink orders were promptly taken as we trickled in. This was probably one of my favorite meals while in town. Everything was fresh and delicious. I rarely see boudin on menus so that was a fun find for me! Portions were on the smaller side for price but to be expected. I would return for breakfast when in town again!

    This place was mediocre, was excited to try it because we heard good things and saw reviews but it was a basic diner experience with an overpriced menu. we were seated immediately and the service was great and and quick which earned it some points, but none of the food was notable and coffee was whatever

    Easy to find. Public parking about 2 blocks away

    So much of Jackson is fake: fake exteriors, chain businesses, up-scale pretentiousness. Please. Then there is this cafe, just off the square, nestled in a log building that is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Not only real, but historic, yes! It is busy but staff work together to keep your coffee filled. Friendly and patient, particularly with those who ended up here for who knows what reason. Love the breakfast choices, from benedicts to chicken/waffle (recommended) to classic western of 2 eggs, home fries and bacon (my favorite). The multi-grain wheat toast by itself almost makes it a worthwhile stop. Only one issue--a single restroom for a lot of people. But hey the coffee is worth the wait in line.

    Fried Chicken & Waffles

    This was our first breakfast in Jackson. Ambiance was nice and relaxing. It's right next to Persephone bakery. We were seated immediately and service was attentive. The food came out very fast. I ordered the fried chicken and waffles and let me tell you, it's out of this world good. Definitely the best fried chicken and waffles I've ever had. The chicken had a very crispy batter and it was so juicy and tender on the inside. Literally drooling as I'm typing this. The Belgian waffle was so fluffy and paired so well with the warm maple syrup. If we go back to Jackson, this is definitely on my list.

    Service was quick. Indoor and outdoor seating options. I had one of the eggs Benedict's as well as the fruit bowl & loved the meal. For the first time, a fruit bowl was an adequate portion for the price of one. Food was so good I considering coming back again on the same trip.

    Pig candy. What they're "known for". Not my favorite but I'm not a huge sweets guy.

    What went well? Everything! From the moment we stepped foot in, we were sat quickly and everyone was Uber friendly. The server was amazing. He was quick and tended to our every need. The restaurant has a very small vibe but I think it seats quite a few people. The food tho... I knew the instant I saw boudin on the menu, I had to have it. Luckily they have a Cajun Eggs Benedict made with boudin that was absolutely phenomenal. I have had ALOT of eggs Benedict and this has to be one of my favorites. The poached eggs were cooked perfectly, the hollandaise was tasty and the baguette that it was all put on was soft and easy to cut through. Easily one of my favorite meals on this(so far) week trip I'm on. We ordered some of the Pig Candy which I hear they are known for. It was tasty but I feel like it would have gone better in a dessert then just as a side by itself. All in all I 100% recommend Cafe Genevieve. Make a reservation and go now

    We had a nice lunch here outside on a nice day. Service was ok, ambiance was very good and the food was very enjoyable. We had a combination of sandwiches and salads. Pig candy was so-so. Wouldn't order it again. Waiter forgot my chili. Reuben was excellent, though and the Melvin beer was cold. I would probably return when back in the area.

    Avocado Toast
    Matthew C.

    I was passing through the state with my family. We were seated right away, no wait time. I forgot to take pictures of their dishes but I was able to snap a picture of my Avocado Toast. It was delicious, no doubt. I finished the plate leaving the ketchup. Overall, that was the best avocado toast I ever had. Must try if you haven't yet!!

    Café Genevieve on East Broadway in Jackson is an adorable breakfast/brunch spot just off the Square in Downtown. The menu ranges from eggs and omelettes. Soup, salads, and sandwiches. There is a small coffee and cocktail list as well. I ordered fried chicken and waffles takeout on the way to the airport. I was actually really surprised at how delicious they were (I am used to fried chicken and waffles being dried out a little bit, but was willing to give Café Genevieve a shot) The hostess was friendly. The only thing that was not clear upfront was the service charge. I am not surprised though since it is fairly common in Jackson.

    We came to Café Genevieve for breakfast and it was delicious. I got the s'mores French toast, which was fantastic. The Buffalo sausage links were really good and are a must. We were able to eat outside, which was really fun for the ambience. There's only one bathroom for this restaurant so be forewarned.

    Pretty solid breakfast spot! The food was tasty and I don't have many complaints. Service was great -- friendly and attentive without being overbearing. The only thing I'd love to see is more gluten-free options on the menu. That would've made it a 5-star experience for me. Still, a great place to start the day and worth a visit if you're in the area.

    Corned beef hash. Yum.
    Susie D.

    Fantastic brunch in the heart of Jackson. Went on July 4th, and despite the crowds, we didn't have to wait long, the service was excellent, and the food was delicious. They have to fix that bathroom door from slamming shut, but other than that, it's a cute little place, too. Yum yum.

    We loved the outdoor patio at Cafe Genevieve! The summer temps were perfect for an early lunch. The service was friendly, and the food was fresh and delicious and portions were not small. We appreciated the beer battered fried chicken - we've never had chicken fried like that before. The chili bowl was filling and the cornbread was so fluffy. Tried my daughter's waffle and it was fantastic!

    See all

    A thoroughly enjoyable evening and dinner…read more Possibly the best ribeye I've had in the past 10 years, but the other "foam and powder"aspects of the dish were just silly. The so called General Tso steak sauce was like a thimbleful smear and completely irrelevant. BBQ Ramen seasoning? Not even enough to get a taste profile of it. The trout with a green curry sauce was good but again, ummmm.... Trout has a subtle flavor. Green curry coconut sauce, and stuffed with another type of Asian something something....might as just as well better to use a neutral tasting fish like a better quality tilapia imho. Let trout taste like trout. Use a different, neutral tasting fish for these kinds of sauces and fillings. Well at least it wasn't covered with a garnish of micro greens lol. Just a little cilantro heh heh heh. I mean don't get me wrong. Both entrees were okay. But a waste of quality fish when a less costly fish would have been fine what with all those other flavors. And the foam and powder embellishments on the steak were barely noticeable. The whole menu reads like a community college cooking school graduate little bit of this little bit of that. When I get home I'm going to have fun writing the different components of all the menu items on index cards, shuffle, and see what combinations come up each time. And I love the idea of a General Tso steak sauce and want to try creating one. And using a packet of Ramen seasoning instead of Cajun seasoning sounds like a fun thing to try. I just won't do it on a fifty dollar piece of meat. If you are counting calories you skip the gross doughnut hole dessert. Dense ball of dough. Gummy. Like they used a cake doughnut recipe instead of a yeast doughnut or beignet recipe. But if not counting calories , go for it. It's fun to try the sauces, even if not that great a doughnut. Great, festive, lively ambiance . Super friendly staff and service.

    With so many strong restaurants in Jackson, this one didn't stand out as one we would revisit…read more Our server was lovely--friendly, attentive, and clearly doing their best. 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.)

It is sort of tapas style and goes nice if you decide to eat family style. The entrees are sort of medium sized portions, so, in most cases if you share with one person you should get 2-3 dishes. If you have a light appetite, though, one of the pastas would be plenty for you. We got the Caesar salad, the elk bolganaise, and the short rib. Everything was good. They made me a couple standard Old Fashioneds different than the menu option, which were excellent. It was a new Rye to me so I took a picture of the bottle to get some at home. Prices were on the high side, but service and quality were good. My drink was $22 which, frankly was a little obscene for an Old Fashioned with a "mid-range" rye, but I was on vacation and I still had a 2nd. LOL. It was great. It's just a lot for a drink. If you want to go over the top, they also have a Tomahawk steak for $126 that I'm sure is excellent. A lot of folks were getting the bone marrow which looked good. Entrees seemed to be around $30 each. I would go back. I liked sitting at the bar and talking to people. Bartenders were really great about spacing out the food so things didn't come on top of one another.

    Heard great things about Glorietta Trattoria so booked it when visiting Jackson Hole this weekend…read more It did not disappoint. First, it's located in what was a killer old house in downtown. Open style kitchen and a gathering waterhole type bar. Note: the seats at the bar reserve faster than the tables. After seeing the insides I can see why. Simply amazing. Our waitress knew the menu front to back with all the nuances. When we asked what some of her favorites were. She literally rattled off 1/2 the menu. Menu is not over sized, on purpose. Every dish is well thought out and executed to perfection. Note #2: the Ceasar Salad is enough for 2 or more! And it's fantastic. About the only thing I could suggest to be better here is if management had pre-printed "Cowboy hat etiquette" cards to hand out to the patrons who arrive with hats. Lots of hats. Not a lot of true understanding for Cowboy Hat etiquette. From casual to formal, hats are off while sitting and dining. Highly recommend Glorietta Trattoria. Just remember to take your hat off at the table.

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.

We walked in without one and were seated within about thirty minutes. The wait was spent in the lounge area, which was cozy, and they served drinks while you wait. Overall, worth visiting, especially for the lamb.
