Aspen House Restaurant – Cozy Fine Dining & Best Steaks in Rawlins, WY

The Aspen House is a must stop, if you want finding dining in Rawlings; without having a business casual dress code. They allow you to come as you are (sneakers, sweatshirt was just fine. The Aspen House felt cozy and intimate with various seating areas. The decor was nice. Our server Bugh (I apologize if I spelled it incorrectly). He was very professional, friendly and courteous while explaining the Chef specials for the evening. Appetizer: Crab Ragoon (CR). okay I will say these were the best I ever had; most times when I’ve ordered them the filling lacked good flavor and a small amount. Well not these, you can tell they were made fresh, and fried nicely (not too hard). If you like CR, then you must try them while dining at Aspen. We ordered the Lemon butter and pan seared Salmon with green beans, mashed potatoes, house salad and mushrooms/onions (cooked perfectly). We were also presented with a dessert tray with several options (carrot cake, cheesecake, chocolate cake, etc.). I ordered the chocolate cake, it was Yummy, chocolate on chocolate (look at my picture and you will see what I mean). You will love it chocolate lovers!! Everything tasted wonderfully, and priced reasonably for fine dining. We enjoyed our meal and would come back again if in Rawlings again. Thanks

I apologize for the long post, but this one deserves the love. We were just driving through Rawlins, Wyoming when we spotted a sign that boldly claimed “Best Steak in Wyoming.” Naturally, we were up for the challenge — and let me just say… Aspen House did not disappoint. Chef Lena — wow. The steak was absolutely phenomenal. Perfectly cooked, tender, full of flavor, and honestly one of the best I’ve ever had. (Also, the portion was HUGE… definitely one to share.) We got seated in the sweetest little private room — cozy and quiet with a chandelier overhead, deep blue curtains, and a painting that made it feel like we were dining in a friend’s home rather than a restaurant. Our server, Amber, was soft-spoken and kind — the kind of service that makes you feel genuinely cared for without being over the top. This place was such a pleasant surprise — totally unexpected and exactly what we didn’t know we needed that evening. If you ever find yourself in Rawlins, keep an eye out for that sign. It just might lead you somewhere special.

My husband and I visited Aspen House while staying overnight in Rawlins on our way to Oregon from Iowa. What a beautiful little gem in a quaint little town! The place is set up with so many private little dining areas with gorgeous chandeliers and great decor. From the first step in the door, Aspen House has that upscale feel. The servers are dressed in all black, but they welcome you as you are, knowing that many of their guests are travelers passing through. Our server was friendly and provided outstanding service. We ordered the seafood fettuccine and the chicken fettuccine. I had the cream of broccoli soup which was delicious. The food portions were more than enough with lots of freshly grated Parmesan cheese. We both got dessert to go (pumpkin cheesecake and a carrot cake slice). We will definitely be stopping in again the next time we pass through Rawlins.
