Wow! Upon a recommendation by the local chamber of commerce, I rode my bicycle down the big hill from the Hulett Airport to dine in town. So glad I did!

The restaurant was packed full of tourists, but the waitress promptly seated me at a table. I was awarded with a VERY cold water glass bottle, with a pivet cork top fastener, that I poured into my adjacent glass. Cool niche approach!

My house salad arrived with Caesar dressing, croutons, cherry tomatoes...the works. Amazing!

I ordered the 10oz steak with garlic skewered shrimp. When the waitress placed it on the table, I sang a hymn! Perfectly cooked, scrumptious flavor. One of the best I've enjoyed in months!

The shrimp was EXCELLENT! Perfect texture, seasoning, and temperature. Even the ranch fries were crisp on the outside and moist inside.

Atmosphere inside and outside screamed old west decor. A perfect compliment to the local attractions.

Take my word for it...this restaurant is worth a try!

Chef and owner Dean Coronato makes you feel like family and the food and service is excellent. His Prime rib is out of this world

A++ atmosphere. If you love the wild west- small town-local’s spot- farm(meat) to table experience. We found that some items on the menu were very good home cooking and local meats! Other items were more regular deep fried pub food but good anyways! Will come back next time in Hulett

The food was so good. The service was great. She was attentive even though they were busy. I had Cajan shrimp which had a distinct flavor and served differently than I had experienced before. They were filleted open and grilled. They were easy to eat. The fries were just as I asked for. Well worth the money and the service.

Really enjoyed the small town hospitality

The chef is apparently from New Jersey...he can cook. It's an unassuming eclectic place but worth going. Only open from 5-8pm

Your business was closed for two days that you claimed to be open this past week and the fact that you have a for sale sign on the side of the building tells me and a few of the townies there that you were closed. Your sign in the door and the LED sign both both said closed even tho on Google it said open so that's why I put that on there. And shame on you for not having high standards.... you say I have a high bar standard while you people have a low bar standard is atrocious! People wish hard for their money and want great food for the price businesses are asking. I travel all across the country and yes I have high standards as you should too. Have a great day!

Have only been here once in 2014 but it popped into mind the other day as this is where i had the best pork chops of my entire life! Not sure when I'll pass through WY again... but I'll sure make a point to stop in when I do. Haven't been happy with a pork chop in 10 years. RUINED it for me 😂❤️

My family and I ate here about 10 years ago. The burgers were phenomenal. In fact, my oldest child, who is now 22, still talks about this restaurant. Great atmosphere as well!

****prices listed on the menu below are extremely old. Possibly 5-8 years old. Sticker shock when I went in. Average price
If anything was 16-22$

Cute touristy place . We didn’t realize the bar was in the back. Sat in front in the restaurant. Service was friendly.
Food was satisfactory but quite expensive for location and what it was
Cheese burger was generous with homemade “ fries” 17$
Cheese sticks were 17$
Prime Rib $33
Pork chop $ 28
Soup was 9$ and not bad
House side salad 5$

No vegetarian options , of course, it is Wyoming .
Place was ok and actually the only place around. They would probably do a heftier business if charging reasonable prices .
All in all fine

Vegetarian options: House salad and cheese sticks only option
