Since 1978, The Blue Lion has been serving French-inspired food in a small historic house in downtown Jackson. Forty-one years later The Blue Lion remains a fixture of the Jackson Hole fine dining scene. Starting at 5:30pm nightly, they serve up house specialties that range from cream cheese stuffed mushrooms to racks of lamb and elk tenderloin. In a refreshing throw-back to traditional restaurant dining, each entree also comes with a dinner salad. They also have live acoustic guitar music accompanying dinner almost every night, which makes this one of the Best Date Night spots in town. One of Jackson’s oldest fine dining establishments! Our signature rack of lamb and classic entree selections are available year round.

We enjoyed the elk tenderloin and local trout. The salad and house dressing was very good. Carlos played guitar on the porch while were there, which was really nice.

I came by myself on a busy Saturday night and received outstanding service from Radu and the rest of the staff! I ordered both the elk and the stuffed mushroom appetizers, followed by the rack of lamb entree. Everything lived up to its name; I absolutely LOVE lamb, and this is the best that I have had so far. Definitely stop by after visiting Teton or Yellowstone!

We went here for a fancier date night. The atmosphere is great - super cozy with live guitar playing. The staff were also all wonderful, friendly and helpful. The food however, was pretty lackluster for the price. My husband had the elk and liked it. I had the trout and it was just ok. The portions are also pretty small for the price. We did have the butternut squash soup and that was delicious. Overall, the price was a little high for the quality.

My husband and I loved the Blue Lion. It’s in a renovated home and we got to sit by the guitarist that was very talented and provided a great vibe to the dinner. The server was very kind and knowledgeable. The food was delicious. We got the crab mushrooms, shrimp scampi, huckleberry scallops, and raspberry lemon cake. SO GOOD! I’d recommend this place for a fancy night out.
