    We checked in at the Wyoming Inn after driving 450 miles from Glenwood Springs, cleaned up, changed and went down to the Whistling Grizzly. We had a 7:30 reservation (Recommended) and showed up a little early so we had a cocktail before being seated. Our server had a French-sounding accent so I asked and he told me his name was Jean Paul and he was from Corsica. He is a fantastic server and he helped us with our wine selection. My wife had the Tresh Trout and I love wild game especially Venison and Elk so I had the Elk Loin. Both dishes were excellent! The deserts were also very good. The hotel is also very nice and comfortable. We were upgraded from a Deluxe King to a King Sweet and it's extremely roomy and very well layout. I highly recommend both the hotel and the restaurant!

    Our server was fantastic, very friendly and attentive. This was our first stop on our vacation and I thought the prices were a bit high. I am glad I reviewed on my last day because all the Jackson restaurant prices are high. The food was amazing. We had the trout and the grouper.

    Service is amazing, this is our third visit and the team here has consistently set this restaurant's service apart from most in the area. The food is delicious, well designed menu. The Elk Tartare is a must try, and I don't think we've regretted a decision yet.

    While the food was good, our server was rude to the guest with me. My guest is not from this country and doesn't speak good English. I tried to help when ordering food, but the server seemed frustrated and dismissed him for the rest of the meal. The other server with an accent, was amazing, by the way, and helped my guest.

    The food and service were top notch at the Whistling Grizzly. Three members of our party split the Tomahawk cut of bison, and raved about it. I had the trout which was also perfectly prepared. I appreciated the flexibility in ordering an alternate side dish since I am avoiding carbs. The fifth member of our party had the steak, also perfectly prepared! Surprisingly, the wine we enjoyed was reasonably priced, a rarity in the Jackson area. Unlike other restaurants in the area, this one was worthy of the expensive menu. Our server was very knowledgeable and pleasant. We would return to the Whistling Grizzly next time we are in the area.

    This is not a fast-food place, or low end place to eat. But if you want to go to a place that is relaxing and has good food this is where you should go. Expect to pay what's it's worth. We had a wonderful time.

    Outstanding as always. This is I believe the fifth time we've eaten there this year and it's become our new go to place for special occasions as well as when visitors are in town. Looking forward to seeing how the menu changes as we move into fall. I consider it one of the best restaurants in town.

    I would have most likely given 5 stars if we hadn't waited at the hostess station for 10 minutes without anyone acknowledging us (we actually had to go into the restaurant to find someone to help us. Once we got seated the staff was awesome, the food delicious and the atmosphere comfortable. This is not a fancy restaurant (it is in a hotel) but the quality of the food and the staff was just like one. I would recommend.

    Jean Paul (our server) was very professional and detail oriented. The food (we got the Elk Tenderloin and the seasonal Bison Tomahawk) was excellent and deserving of the price point. The atmosphere was cozy and high end, yet we felt comfortable in jeans. We forgot to buy the kitchen a round so please do when you dine here!

    Loved the dinner but the waitress was on the difficult side. We asked to split a salad between two people and she brought us two empty plates and the entire salad ... so we were supposed to split it. We asked her to ask the kitchen to do this and she reluctantly did. Then, she lectured us on how to order in the future. Perhaps she didn't like serving women???

    Had another exemplary experience at the Whistling Grizzly. Can highly recommend the 30 day dry-aged Bison Tomahawk steak. Jean Paul was an outstanding server, working the floor with Tilly and Kimi to form an outstanding team. The trout dip is my favorite small bite in town. 10/10 would absolutely bring my ex girlfriend back to dinner here.

    I really wanted to love this restaurant but giving it 4* is generous. Starters were great - Trout Salad (a little heavy on the vinaigrette) and Astoria Salad (beautiful balance of textures and flavors). Entrees were mixed - Pork chop was delicious. $70 Prime Rib Eye was tender but salty/over seasoned, and parts were more medium than med-rare. Underwhelming given the price tag. Dessert was good - carrot cake was very loose (not dense) and not overly sweet. They have an unpublished kids menu and my son got the chicken tenders. I cut it up for him and noticed that the thicker part was still a little raw - yuck! I should have sent it back but the staff was hustling because there were only 3 of them covering ~9-10 tables. He didn’t want to wait for them so he just ended up eating the other piece which was cooked. I don’t know if I would give this another try since we have dined at 4 other fabulous restaurants in Jackson.
