Another five star restaurant on my 14 day, 14 restaurant trip across country. This place pops up out of nowhere like an oasis while you're driving to Cheyenne. This may have been the most fun I've had at a restaurant so far. The owners were incredibly friendly and cool, and the local regular crowd was full of characters.
Really nice set up with all sorts of memorabilia on the walls, and a real family vibe, with an awesome live music set up. I was tricked by another customer into eating rocky mountain oysters...but, as it pains me tonsay this, they weren't bad at all. Dont know what that says about me so im just gonna move on.
The menu here is incredibly eclectic, from staples like chicken fried steak, to Hawaiian classics like the Loco Moco (with elk meat), and Big Island chicken, and others. I had the chicken fried steak with white gravy for the first time in my life, and it was delicious. The gravy had a really nice touch of pepper, that was a perfect balance to the flavor of the meat and batter. I also had the Big Island chicken which was awesome!! Really well cooked chicken, with natural smoke and a really nice seasoning that have the outside an awesome crisp.
My surprise here, because I do not really like mashed potatoes, was how much I liked their mashed potatoes in that white gravy. Homemade MPs were really cooked perfectly and that white gravy is subtle, but adds a lot to the food.
Best mashed potatoes I've ever had!! Hands down.
I also had an awesome and dangerously strong drink called a "candle prad" (spelling?), crown and butterscotch...strong and smooth as h÷ll. And yes I had the bull balls, they were good and I dont wanna talk about it haha.
Anyway, a great place that uses top quality meats and always switches up their menu, with great people, the #2 ranked music venue in Cheyenne, and a great atmosphere. Check it out!! And look for my adidas hat hung up on their hat wall of fame.
Tomorrow I head out to salt lake city to crown burger to try the famous...crown burger. Look up its ingredients, it's gonna be intense!!
