8 restaurants in this guide

Jackson Hole's combination of natural beauty and excellent restaurants makes it a surprisingly good date night destination. Whether you're celebrating an anniversary or just escaping the kids for an evening, the town offers options ranging from intimate wine bars to grand fine dining rooms.

Glorietta Trattoria might be the most romantic restaurant in Jackson. The handmade pasta is exceptional, the wine list is thoughtful, and the intimate space feels like being let in on a local secret. It's not trying to impress with mountain views or celebrity chef credentialsโ€”just excellent Italian cooking in a warm setting. Reservations essential.

Bin22 offers a different kind of date night. This wine bar and shop has limited seating and doesn't take reservations, which adds a sense of discovery when you snag a spot. The small plates are designed for sharing, and the wine selection is genuinely interesting. It feels like being on vacation even if you live here.

For something more upscale, Snake River Grill remains the standard for special occasion dining. The fireplace tables are particularly coveted in winter. Aurora at Snow King adds gondola drama to the eveningโ€”there's something inherently romantic about riding up a mountain for dinner.

The Blue Lion, set in a historic home with live acoustic guitar, offers a more relaxed romantic atmosphere. The rack of lamb is legendary, and the patio works beautifully in summer.

Local Tips

  • Reservations are essential for Glorietta and Snake River Grillโ€”book 1-2 weeks ahead.
  • Bin22 doesn't take reservations. Arrive at 5pm when they open for best chances at seating.
  • Ask for fireplace tables at Snake River Grill or patio seating at The Blue Lion when booking.
  • Consider a pre-dinner drink at one spot and dinner at anotherโ€”it makes the evening feel more like an adventure.
