2 Best Restaurants in Jackson Hole and Northwest Wyoming, Wyoming

Background Illustration for Restaurants

Northwest Wyoming has many restaurants. Anyplace you go, you’ll find basic Western fare such as steaks, chicken, and burgers; in Jackson there’s a wider selection, with menus listing everything from Mexican and Thai dishes to trout, buffalo, and elk. There are also a few fine-dining establishments in the region. Arguably the best steaks in all of Wyoming are prepared at Svilars', a steak house in the tiny community of Hudson, east of Lander.

Los Cabos

$$

This family-owned eatery offers some pretty decent Mexican food despite being 1,000 miles north of the border. Lunch and dinner options include taquitos rancheros, chimichangas, and multiple kinds of of enchiladas: all of which barely fit on the plates they're served on. Although shellfish in these parts are hard to come by, they do have prawns and scallops, served with a mojo de ajo on the menu. There's also a random separate burger menu whose crown jewel is the Royal Burger topped with a fried egg.

The Merry Piglets Mexican Grill

$$$

You'll get more-than-generous portions of Mexican fare at this institution first established in 1969 as a shack on Crabtree Corner. Today, it's a real restaurant, usually noisy and jam-packed, but there's a full-service bar whipping up a must-try Oaxaca old-fashioned that you can sip in the festive atmosphere while waiting for your table. Food favorites include sizzling fajitas, kickin' chicken street tacos, nachos with the rich Twisted Cowgirl queso dip upgrade, and the Piglet Sampler featuring a variety of signature dishes. Choose from an array of homemade sauces to accompany your dish.
