The Blue Lion was built as a residential home in the late 1930's, in 1974 it became The Tourist Trap restaurant and then in 1976 The Blue Lion. I bought it in 1978 after graduating college. The Blue Lion has evolved a lot since the early days. We continue to add and change dishes semi-annually. The lamb, elk and fresh fish are our biggest sellers. There was a restaurant in southern California where I grew up that served mud pie and my mother made a home made hot fudge sauce which we incorporated into our own version of mud pie, a local favorite. The restaurant has been enlarged several times, the upstairs dining, the kitchen, the waiting area and the outdoor deck. In the winter The Blue Lion can accommodate 60 diners at one time. In the summer we open the deck enabling us to accommodate 80 diners. We are open nightly at 5:30 and usually feature an acoustical guitarist as entertainment.

Great place and we loved their off season discount (2 for 1 entree). Food is delicious. We had table upstairs and I think it’s the best place in restaurant because it’s not noisy like downstairs and feels so cozy. Service was really good and server was professional and nice. We ordered their famous Stuffed mushrooms and Grilled Wasabi Elk Fillet for appetizers and it was fabulous. For main course we had one of the house favorites Roast Lamb (I heard a lot of great comments about this fish) and my husband loved it and I had Blue Lion Ribeye, which was okay. What also was amazing is dessert. They bring you a whole tray with 5-6 options of desserts and you can choose which one you would like to have. I’ve never seen that in any other restaurants in Jackson. Prices are typical for fine dining, about 100$ per person with drinks and desserts. I would come back to this place. Thank you for great experience

Very expensive overrated. Worst food during our trip. Would not recommend this restaurant to any European.
