Albany Restaurant Bar & Liquormart

I love history and while exploring the Pacific Union Depot, a stop by Albany restaurant for dinner was a must. The prime rib is their best selling item so I just had to have it.  It was delicious and done just right, though not the best quality beef. I also had the beef barley soup and it was also delicious, with lots of beef. I could tell that they use the unsold prime rib to make the soup. This is a smart as it saves money, no waste, and the soup would be tastier if roasted meat is used instead of raw meat. I chose the fresh veggies to go with my dinner and it was a disappointment. The vegetables were frozen and not fresh. When I see the word fresh on the menu, I expect the food to be never been frozen, nor canned.

The price was decent. Service was friendly and prompt.

Prime rib sammich -- the Wyoming Big Mac -- is done right. This place has been run by the same family since 1942, and all those descendants are regular customers. This is a great little slice of Cheyenne, right in the middle of downtown. A great place for travelers to experience local fare.

They have the best steak in town and really good chili (most of the time). My steak has always been cooked perfectly (medium rare) and it comes with this balsamic butter on the side that is delicious. Their chili is good most of the time, but lately about half the time I've had it, it just isn't as good as I'm used to (watery and undercooked). They have seasonal menu items that change regularly and they have specials on Friday and Saturday that are always different. They also have a variety of deserts that are different every day. The booths are better in the bar side (cushioned leather instead of just plain wood) and the package side has the best prices I've seen in town.
