This funky restaurant on Main Street has haute cuisine from both land and water. For starters try the ahi tuna poke avocado stack or crispy brussels sprouts served with a balsamic reduction. Entrées in the restaurant include highlights such as a 16-ounce rib-eye steak, slow-cooked baby back ribs, cow tip tenderloin pasta, and Skuna Bay salmon. The pub side of the place—yes, there's a pub, too—has more casual fare like local burgers and fish and chips.
This small, dark, family-owned restaurant with vinyl booths has what many locals say are the best steaks in Wyoming. A meal here usually begins with sarma (cabbage rolls) and other appetizers. Your server will then place before you one of the biggest, if not the biggest, and best steaks you've likely ever seen. Baked lobster, deep-fried shrimp, and crab legs are options for seafood lovers.
This crowded, noisy place serves your typical salads, sizeable sandwiches, ½-pound burgers on toasted brioche, and hand-tossed pizzas. When the weather cooperates, you can sit on the garden deck while the kids play in the yard.
Opened in 2019, Mulino filled a need for casual fine dining in Lander. Its menu isn't massive, but it does include fresh salads with premium ingredients like pickled plum and golden raisin, homemade pasta with a variety of sauces, and a creative seasonal menu. Romantic vibes make it the ultimate local date-night spot.
