    Grilled Elk Medallions with Huckleberry glaze
    Carrie C.

    We eat here every time we stay at Turpin Meadows. The Elk Medallions are one of my favorite meals in the whole country. My husband loves the Ribeye. My friends ordered the Brussels sprouts and really liked them as well. All enjoyed with a spectacular view of the Tetons. And the wait staff is always on point. Quickly getting us whatever we needed.

    Side salad only 3 more with dinner.

    This place was super convenient to get to since we're at the Hatchett Resort connected on the property. I was hesitant to go here due to past reviews but we gave it a shot & we're glad we did. It's a tad pricey but everything we had was good and the portions were huge. I'll also add the menu says 18% gratuity is added to your check and it was not. We tip 20% for good service so they made out better with us by not adding it & I prefer that. So my husband ordered a mix bbq special with mixed veggies. It was all good and the veggies were not over cooked and tasted great. I had the steelhead trout with asparagus and garlic mashed potatoes and added a side salad for 3.00 more. We each ordered a local beer on tap. Our bill was about 60. A tad pricey but again lots of quality food. Also the hostess and three young servers did an excellent job taking care of the restaurant they were in constant motion helping tables. Try it out!

    Located inside of the Togwotee Mountain Lodge off of Highway 26, most people coming off the…read moremountain pass might decide to keep going toward Jackson Hole unless you need gas or place to stay. I stayed a few nights at the Lodge since the hotels were all booked up in Jackson Hole and it turns out that it was my great fortune! My stay was fine with clean rooms, comfortable beds, and high speed internet available. The hidden gem is definitely the Red Fox Saloon. The menu is limited, but totally fine given the challenge of the logistics to get supplies delivered up the mountain on a regular basis. Today, I was in the mood for a nice salad and big bowl of chili. Goodness, I was in luck! The salad was super sized with plenty of lettuce, tomatoes, carrots, and other garden goodies! The chili was giant hot bowl filled with beans and a combination of bison and elk meat. I definitely tasted the elk, but if you fear enjoy meat other than beef, do not worry. It is a hot bowl of pure yumminess!

I asked the hostess if they was only server and then she found our server. We ordered drinks and food at the same time. Our drinks sat up on the counter of the bar for 8-10 minutes. I finally went and grabbed the drinks myself. One minute later the food came too. The food was cold. Fries were stale and bland. We got a Cesar salad which had the non fresh bad part of the romaine lettuce. The trout tacos tasted ok and the fish was fresh (thankfully, we were scared). When I asked for the bill, that was brought and processed immediately but I wasn't given the itemized statement. So I had to go back to the hostess as we rarely saw our server. Overall, would not recommend unless you're just coming for drinks. Unfortunately, not many options in this area.

For a Sunday night near closing and off-peak season, the wait was longer than I expected, about 45 minutes. If you're able to make reservation in advance, I would do it. We started off with Crispy Brussels as appetizer. The white balsamic vinaigrette was so delicious and the dried cranberries was an unexpected nice touch to the dish. I loved our entrée - Pork Shank! I'm glad I shared it with my sister. The portion was generous. The carrot puree, red rice & lentils complimented the pork so effortlessly. The pork was tendered and flavorful. I was surprised how much I enjoyed the dish. Delicious! Huckleberry is a regional favorite and a thing in Wyoming because they grow wild in the area. I had to try the Huckleberry Cosmo. I have to say - Cranberry has a competition out here! Service was great and attentive. I look forward to coming back the next time I'm in Jackson Hole!

It was as if we were being deserted one by one and trying to find someone to take our next order. I ordered the highly recommended elk bolognese and was immensely underwhelmed. The dish came out slightly warm, not hot. So it must have been sitting out for a while before being served. The elk was the most underwhelming part. The meat tasted like ground beef, but bigger chunks. The pasta was cooked well, but I would not order this dish again. The best part of the meal and experience was the pork baos. Tasty and delicious. Overall, this meal was just average.

I wasn't rude. I didn't scream the worst experience I've ever had. Are you coming to the establishment for six years sometimes my chicken wings come out cold I don't complain. Sometimes they came out raw. I didn't complain today. I waited 20 minutes before somebody even approached me. I went up to the ladies that I've been waiting really long time I'd like to place an order and she's a go don't come near me. I want to speak to the Managment about this. This is unbelievable for a client that comes here so many times 50% of the time they're inconsistent 50% of the time is delicious today this Waitress was so rude. I had such an arrogant Cavalier attitude. I don't know how she even can be around people like this. I know they're busy but you just don't talk to people like this and when I told her you shouldn't talk to me like that she threw me up. She threw me out and I guess you're not a lot of complain in this town with someone full short someone mistreat you you're not allowed to complain. The only thing they do is throw you out cause they don't wanna understand that they fell short and they have a shitty attitude. She could handle this completely different instead of insult me tell me don't come near me and she's not in the mood. She could've said. I know you've been waiting a long time. I'm sorry for that was what you could've said. I feel bad. We're gonna take care of you right now get your order in please be patient with us. We had a tough day. That's what you could've said. I understand you're frustrated, sir. Understand you way more than you should have. we're trying as hard as we can. I said she had a severe attitude. You just don't do this to a regular client. That's becoming there and never complained before ever even when the food was mediocre raw cold and it still came back you don't need a regular client and throw them out. This lady doesn't know how to deal with people under pressure and stressful situations. I'm reading another one star review that says the same thing about her and she seems annoyed with anybody that says something she's annoyed with anything when they fall short she doesn't wanna hear anything.
