Four Seasons: West Bank Grill

Kent Hobson (Spring Creek Ranch Realty) — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 12:39:31 -0500

Four Seasons: West Bank Grill

Four Seasons: West Bank Grill at Jackson Hole Mountain Resort has the service and the food you're looking for! I just took my wife here for her birthday. The service was excellent, with complimentary champagne and dessert. The prices are high, but the quality of food matches what you'll find at this highly sought after restaurant. I had a pancetta wrapped buffalo tenderloin that did not disappoint. The West Bank Grill is virtually a steakhouse, but they have alternatives. For instance, my wife ordered a salmon that was fantastic and we had an Ahi Tuna appetizer that you cooked yourself to your preference on a "hot rock" for lack of a better description.

Locals with a ski club card get a free bottle of wine of $60 in value or less with 2 entree's.

If you're thinking of going to the West Bank Grill, make sure to reserve days in advance. It can be busy!
