Mangy Moose Restaurant and Saloon

There are highs and lows of every restaurant, but this was hilarious in sad way. It's longer than my usual reviews as this is a warning for others. We found seats upstairs (opens at noon) and at 2pm on a Sat or was packed. No worries... We found seats and looked forward to the "famous" nachos. Drinks came quickly. We waited to order food, and waited. Eventually I flagged down another waitress & then ours comes over. We order the nachos. Our food comes... without the guac. The first thing she said when I pointed it out was, "Well, I can run downstairs to get it, but it will take me 20 minutes." What?!? Ok.... The guac arrives in 5 min. Great! Not sure where $9 of carnitas was, but there were some. I'm not going to complain as I'm hungry. Waitress comes by in 10 & we order another drink. We wait. We wait. She comes by 20+ min later and asks if we're ready for the bill. I explain that the drinks never arrived, and she says, "Oh, I didn't hear that." Yes, she did, but ok. We decide to go. At this point I'm at a 4* review... But 1. she comes back with a pitcher of water & glasses and states that the people standing behind us are waiting for the table (we still didn't have the bill). So we're sitting there awkwardly with people staring down our backs. 2. We get the bill and hand her cash. She comes back with $40 and explains that our bill was $59 and change, so she just kept the change (?!?). 3. My husband is trying to give her a tip, and she grabs the money out of his hand while he's counting it, letting $ fall to the floor, explains, "Oh, it was just a dollar that fell down there." and walks off! Ends up she grabbed a $15++ tip after I got on my hands and knees to find the cash on the floor (you have to realize there is a ton of ski gear everywhere, and money had floated down to the next level). Oh, and when we looked at the bill, they charged an extra $4.50 for an ice cube for his $15 Basil bourbon. So buyer beware...the ice cube is not on their menu as an upcharge. I understand it's busy, but I have never had such service in my life. I will *never* go back there. Period.

Stopped in the saloon a beer after riding the aerial tram at JH Mountain Resort. Nice selection of very cold beer. We didn’t eat this time around, but we heard it’s a good stop for food, as well. The smell of the restaurant was a little off-putting, but not enough to deter us from returning.

Firstly, whoa. I'm in a foreign territory. The terrain is challenging and beautiful. The people are bright and always ready to ski. Jackson is a true American gem of a resort and community. Nestled near its heart is a party, a concert, and a breath of fresh air, all to be found at The Mangy Moose. In the spring and summer seasons, it hosts some giant Moose friends. Year-round, though, they host some amazing live musicians and bands that only add to the vibe of this incredibly nostalgic tavern. It's got a western range and plains and an inspired menu with modern Americana refreshments. I had David's Chopped Salad and Truffle Fries. Typical me. 🫠. Exceptional taste, the food I mean. The veggies and fruits were the freshest, and not just for late December. Crisp and delicious combo with the cashew and vinaigrette dressing innovation. The Fries were just perfect. A deliberate chef laced them personally and perfectly with parmesan and the truffle oil was superb. Niki, my server, was the completion of this place's charm. Her timing and check-ins were perfect, and she took care of everyone like this. I'm enamored by the Mangy Moose, and as a patron, I feel incredibly respected by the effort behind their presentation and delicious delivery. I was also lucky enough to see Whiskey Moonlight perform live. A live guitar duo that can rock a crowd. I had an amazing time at the Mangy Moose and you will too, cheers!

We see why the Mangy Moose is so well known. What a great place to visit in Teton Village for a full sit-down meal, which we had, and the experience from the food to the service was outstanding. We loved the Wyoming feel inside! Next door to the restaurant is the saloon, then downstairs is a wine & grocery store, a toy shop, and an ice cream shop. This place really is amazing!

The atmosphere at Mangey Moose is on the quieter side, which we appreciated, especially for a $$$-level spot. The burger was solid—juicy, flavorful, and cooked well. Tried the Firebird chicken sandwich too; while the chicken itself was great, the huckleberry BBQ sauce wasn’t really my thing—felt a bit too sweet for my taste. Overall, a good experience with room for a few tweaks!
