    Jungle Birdie and Bobby's Botanical

    For our first night in Jackson, we were just going to be casual, no reservations anywhere (plus we didn't want to make any in case our flight was delayed or something) but our ride share driver warned us not to trust websites because people forget about them and aren't worried about us tourists during off season when they are on the beach with a cold beer in their hands. I didn't believe him, I trusted a website and I was wrong. I left my list of places to eat in the hotel room so I tried to go by memory. The second place was also closed... Luckily, Trio was one restaurant I did extensive research on and actually wanted to go to, so we popped inside to see if they'd seat us without a reservation. Hooray! They did. We got the table with the extra chairs by the drafty door, but at that point, I just wanted a cocktail and some food and I wasn't being picky about anything. Our server was super nice and very, very on point. She made sure to check on us and gave us great recommendations. She knew we weren't locals but she let us spin the "off season, locals discount wheel" anyway. This was a great memory for us because we happened to win a big prize, one free entrée. Now you're wondering well that's cool but it can't be that great of a prize. Oh, it was. We shared the bison steak special that was priced at $90 so we basically got our meal 50% off. I felt so guilty and the smile on our servers face when she says "ohhh.... that's a good one..." was priceless. They did make sure to add an off season 20% tip guarantee on the bill, pre discount, which made me feel better. The place is lovely, with art on the walls for sale. I like the open kitchen and watching everyone enjoy themselves, employees and guests alike. The food here is phenomenal. Both of our appetizers were fantastic. I am going to start to add corn to my burrata salads now too. We got two styles of potatoes and neither of them disappointed. Our bison special was cooked perfectly and had great flavor. I wanted to gnaw on the bone. Their chimichurri is excellent. The cocktails were good but not the best of the trip.

    This restaurant is located by public parking so the walk isn't too long. We arrived on a Thursday around 6:30 and had a choice to sit either inside or outside. We opted for inside since it was a little warm. Our server greeted us immediately and was very knowledgeable about the menu and wines available. I ordered the Caesar salad and margherita pizza. The salad was perfectly dressed and the pizza had a great flavor. Service was spot on and friendly and it was perfect for our first night in Jackson.

    During our vacation in Jackson we dined at Trio based on the reviews. Lots of 5 stars which they totally deserve!! The ambiance is energetic yet cozy. Our server, Amber was outstanding. She gave great recommendations, always came at the right time to meet our needs and so friendly! We started with the shishito peppers and carrots in a sauce. They were the best!! My husband ordered the Fresh Pea Risotto and added shrimp. It was so perfect, everything so fresh and hot. The peas tasted as if they were picked from the garden just before we were served. He is still talking about that dish a month later. I ordered the house special that day which was bone in rib eye with chimichurri sauce along with the most delicious fingerling potatoes. The steak was seasoned and cooked perfectly!!! The fingering potatoes were crisp and hot. It truley was the best meals we have ever had! I seriously don't know why anyone would give a negative review to this establishment.‍Thank you to the chefs and staff at Trio for providing us with such a great meal and experience! We appreciate all that you do! I'd seriously vacation in Jackson again just to eat here again!

    Highly recommend, must stop if you're on the hunt for an upscale meal. Order the focaccia, you won't be disappointed. The small comes in 4 pieces with a butter spread and a basil infused oil. We ordered the wild game pasta and the snap pea risotto. Both had super great flavors. We wrapped it all up with a piece of the olive oil cake with whipped cream and macerated strawberry's. I could've done without the strawberry's but the whipped cream and cake were super delicious.

    Manhattan
    Laura P.

    A yummy spot to dine and a sister restaurant to Local. Service was spot on! Their Manhattan cocktail was great and a perfect wind down to the day. We also enjoyed the starters of Marinated Olives with chili & orange peel, and their Wood Fired Bread service with basil infused olive oil and Nduja butter. Their Arugula Salad was light, fresh and very much enjoyed. I paired this with a bowl of their delicious BLT soup which is a creative blend of bacon infused tomato soup with arugula pesto, bacon lardons and garlic croutons. The Marguerite Pizza with pepperoni was slightly undercooked in the wood fire oven according to Hubs, but it was eaten! We will return!

    Incredible. Delicious. Innovative. Loved every bite. THE BREAD was to die for. Whatever the butter and infused olive oil was, top notch. We got pasta and a buffalo ribeye. Both were delightful. The service was great, kind and attentive. Super cute ambiance, very modern. Would love to come back to try more any day.

    Roma and Potato pizzas
    Megan K.

    We had a reservation and were seated under a vent that had cold air blowing on us (it was 15 degrees outside). I brought it up to the server and they admitted that the vent on the roof was above that table and they can't get bldg management to close it. I find it odd to not just rearrange tables instead of attempting to seat patrons in and uncomfortable position. My boyfriend did ask the host if we could move tables and they did move us. Our new sever was very nice. They did have a runner sending out appetizers and we didn't have any plates or silverware but our server did notice right away and brought us sets. She was on top of it. The shishitos themselves were good but I don't think the lemon and labneh were a good addition. The pizzas were pretty good. I enjoyed the potato pizza. The portion was generous for the cost. Menu was interesting but not sure this would be on the top of the list for a future trip.

    Wood Fired Bread (Large, $14, one piece eaten!)
    Jon T.

    Trio offers a unique take on popular modern dining, in a cozy hall smack in the middle of Jackson. Low lights and bright wood walls with high windows capture the setting sunlight in warm, rich colors. It's quite busy and a little tight, so make sure you get a reservation if possible. Our experience started out great, as our server was polite and very helpful with menu questions. We started with the Wood Fired Bread ($14, large), which was an absolutely delightful helping of four fluffy, flavorful foccacia wedges. We couldn't get enough of the basil-infused olive oil and honey-whipped ricotta that it came with! The tap list was nice, with a handful of local options from $7-8. Would be nice to have a dark beer besides Guinness, especially since local brewers do some lovely stouts and black lagers. I would have had a second (finished my pint before food arrived) but the server never even asked. Next, the SRF Beef Carpaccio ($23) was another shared dish, but this one didn't quite land. The beef slices themselves were rich and tasty, but quickly overwhelmed by the heavy-handed horseradish aioli. All together, all I could taste was horseradish after a couple seconds. The only real upside was the house made potato chips, these were FIRE. Honestly, throw some furikake on these sell them on their own! Unfortunately, our experience went downhill from here. Our party of four placed a relatively simple order: Person 1: Risotto (Note for later, I deliberately pointed at the Main, as I knew there was a side) Person 2: Seared Scallops ($22, MP) Person 3: Market Fish (Alaskan Halibut) ($45, MP) Person 4: Side of Potatoes and Side of Risotto ($12 each) After the expected wait, we were brought the scallops, fish, and three sides: potatoes, risotto, and mushrooms. Hmm, maybe the mushrooms were a mistake and they were bringing our risotto entree? We decided to be a little patient and wait. Our friend found that the Halibut was near raw in the middle, but we weren't sure if that was intentional since we're from Hawaii and eat quite a bit of seared Ahi that's intentionally raw in the middle. We called the server back, who said "Oh we can have them cook it more for you if you'd like." I made it a point to ask, "Sorry, is this how it's supposed to be served?" She thought for a second and replied "I don't think so." I also asked about the missing risotto and she said oh, sorry, I thought you ordered the mushrooms, I'll have them put in another order of risotto! When she returned with a side of risotto instead of an entree, we decided it wasn't worth complaining about again. There was really no way to confuse our order as I had pointed at the menu and the server had nodded in acknowledgement. The scallops were pricey ($22 for two), and again, notably undercooked inside. The sear was delicious, but it seems like whoever is doing seafood doesn't quite have a grip on their overall heating technique. The risotto side ($12) was undercooked, crunchier than a proper al dente. We thought it was too heavy on the cheese, but that's a personal preference. Our friend let us sample their risotto in case ours was just a rushed job, but honestly, the texture was the same. I just can't recommend this dish. Our friends did enjoy the Halibut and fingerling potatoes. There were so many promising elements that were just unfortunately marred by poor quality control and questionable service. With so many other options in Jackson, it's important to strive for perfection. I added a star back for the server recognizing our subpar experience and going out of her way to comp one of the risotto sides. I can only hope that by seeing the issues, they can continue to work to do better for their customers.

    Dinner menu 6.22.24

    I think i found the best restaurant in Jackson. Wow! What a hip spot with amazing decor, awesome vibe and a superb dinner menu. Our server William (shoutout) was very attentive and accommodating. We started with a round of drinks. I enjoyed a Hey Zeus and my wife had a Petro Club. I loved my beer. Served with a slice of lime it was light and refreshing. For an appetizer, we split a Cesar salad minus anchovies. It was served with a mixture of green leaves and a light dressing. For entrees, we chose the Pan Seared Alaskan Halibut (OMG) over a cauliflower purée and a Heirloom tomato and pepperoni pizza as my kiddo was with us. The Halibut was most likely the best I've ever had and I've enjoyed my fair share. What made the dish was the cauliflower purée and a chili drizzle. I'll be thinking about that for a while. Not to be forgotten, the pizza was very good, too. Thin crust and flavorful. Tonight we also enjoyed dessert. We shared the peanut butter cup. Amazing! Not super sweet, which we appreciated. The salt on top, coupled with the chocolate and whipped peanut butter, made the dish. Shoutout to the chef and staff. Just super job all around!

    Drink menu- N/A Grapefruit Mule
    Danielle T.

    I thoroughly regret dining at Trio as it was not worth the potentially damaging health risks to myself and my baby. The halibut special and pork chop were excellent. The two star is for being served an alcoholic drink when I ordered a mocktail, which is listed on their menu as a "Grapefruit Mule", an N/A option (the only mule on their entire drink menu). When my husband got the bill it stated Tito's grapefruit mule. The waitress proceeded to tell us there was a new mule on the menu (there is only 1-picture attached) with alcohol (not true). It sounds like after talking to the manager people have ordered the N/A version with alcohol so they have adjusted their POS system as such. This is a warning for anyone who can't drink alcohol and visits Trio, for me it's because I'm pregnant. I expressed my concerns to the manager so I'm hopeful that their staff is better educated or there will be menu changes to address this dangerous issue.

    Cheese burger with Waffle Fries
    Michael A.

    Excellent food. Excellent service. And a great indoor atmosphere. An awesome restaurant with a great location in town and menu. Our server Kelly had exceptional customer service with spot-on recommendations. The poblano sweet potato soup, waffle fries, pork chop, and burger were all fantastic! We will return for every visit to Jackson hole.

    Unbelievably gorgeous presentation and so tender and tasty, the halibut was perfection.

    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.)

    Excellent food and drink service. We sat at the bar. The drinks were excellent and the bartenders…read morewere very attentive servers. We got a few things and shared. 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.

    5 stars. No notes. Absolute culinary witchcraft…read more Listen... I am NOT a lamb guy. Lamb and I have historically had a very casual, distant relationship. But the server convinced me to order the signature rack of lamb at The Blue Lion and I swear it was one of the best meals I have ever eaten in my entire life. I'm not exaggerating when I say I almost cried at the table. At one point I stopped talking entirely and just stared at the plate like I was having a spiritual experience. Was it expensive? Yes. Did they offer my wife a birthday dessert? They did not. Did I briefly consider licking the plate in public anyway? Also yes. None of it matters because that lamb transcended earthly cuisine. I will be 87 years old in a rocking chair still whispering about "that lamb in Jackson Hole." I don't know what dark culinary pact was made in that kitchen, but I support it fully. I swear... I will dream about that lamb.

    Dined at Blue Lion and overall had a good experience. The standout dish was the rack of lamb. We…read moreshared it between five people as an appetizer and it was easily the best item we had. Very flavorful and cooked perfectly. Highly recommend ordering it. I also ordered the trout, which unfortunately did not live up to the rest of the meal. It lacked flavor and was the weakest dish at the table. On the plus side, they have a solid drink selection. The restaurant is on the smaller side, so reservations are recommended. 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.
