One cannot talk about Mulino without mentioning their incredible selection of dishes.

“ Great experience! My server, Kendra, was so sweet and attentive. She offered recommendations and provided wonderful service. The bread is INCREDIBLE. I had the salmon entree and it was cooked to perfection. The sauce and vegetables were lovely. Sitting on the patio was beautiful on a summer night. Definitely will return! ”
“ The rigatoni may have had the best red sauce Ive had in years. The chefs did not stop moving for a second during our two hour meal, neither did the wait staff. The gnocchi tasted like french onion soup, incredible. Reasonably priced and delicious mocktails. Finished with the cookie ice cream. Nothing else to say, well be back. ”
“ Fantastic. Were just passing through, but scoped out the ratings for a good meal before hitting the hay and driving again. After days of notsofresh fare as weve travelled, this menu was refreshing. We had 4 courses and the tasty watermelon mint cocktail. Service and food were excellent across the board, and the ambiance is quaint yet airy and bright. Thank you! ”
“ Mulino is truly a gem! My boyfriend and I adore this cozy, familyrun bistro, and we always feel so welcomed by owners Ange and Joe. If youre looking for a relaxing evening out, I highly recommend going on nonpeak evenings during the weekits the perfect time to enjoy the warm ambiance and attentive staff. Dining at Mulino is like getting a new restaurant experience with every season. Their menu, featuring modern French and Italian dishes, is thoughtfully updated to showcase seasonal flavors. We recently shared the Chipotle Corn Crab Dip from the latest menu, and it was an absolute delight! My current favorite entree is the Artichoke Pesto Spaghetti with shrimpits bursting with layers of flavor and texture. Meanwhile, Matt cant stop raving about the Chicken Duo, which has quickly become his favorite. We love to start our evenings with a signature cocktail like the Tall in the Saddle, and we always enjoy exploring something new from the extensive wine list. Ange, as a sommelier, is eager to answer any questions and recommend the perfect bottle that beautifully complements our meal. If youre looking for a warm and inviting dining experience where every visit feels special, Mulino is the perfect choice. We cant wait for our next visit! ”
“ What a gem in Lander. Fresh delicious food, kind staff, and clean welcoming atmosphere. There were willing and able to give options for my gluten and dairy free dietary needs. I had the vegetable risotto and arugula salad both without cheese. ”
“ Easily the best restaurant and the best bar in Lander. I turned 18 at a home stay in Italy and its been that long since I had Italian cuisine this delicious. The carbonara ordered was perfect with meaty chunks of pancetta. The sauce was rich with a depth of flavor I wasnt expecting. The chicken I added was cooked perfectly. The Parmesan flakes on top had substance. Angie behind the bar mixed me up a couple delicious cocktails and was a great conversationalist. 1110 would recommend this spot. For a date night, or random dinner on a Wednesday, it doesnt matter. Check it out. ”
“ Beautiful presentation of food, very well cooked one of the best salads I have ever had at a restaurant. The wait staff was very kind and super responsive. Over all great place for all occasions, would recommend 10 out of 10 times ”
“ My daughter and I stopped by on Friday, 18 Oct for well deserved MommyNana Time after a long day of tired kiddos. We were greeted immediately and after a short 5 min wait, we asked to be seated at the bar by the Chef. It was close to 815 and the restaurant and bar areas were completely packed, as they should be! While we were initially only there for adulttime beverages and conversation, we watched the Chef prepare beautiful plates with care and precision...leading to our change of mind. We ordered the charcuterie board we had already eaten Mommystyle and it was worth MORE than the 21 charge. The QUALITY of the cheeses, meats, fruit puree, honey, almonds, bread and dried cherries was top notch. Nana had a salt rimmed Patron Silver Margarita and Mommy had a glass of Whistle Pig Bourbon, neat, of course. Needless to say, Nana is returning this evening for dinner with Papa. Thank you for a wonderful end to our trip. We WILL visit again when we return to Lander! ”
