The Cavalryman Steakhouse is located on the grounds of historic Fort Sanders, established in July of 1866. In its heyday, the Fort Sanders Military Reservation protected the Overland and Lodgepole Creek emigrant routes, the Denver-Salt Lake City stage route, and the construction crews for the Union Pacific Railroad. Ruins of the fort’s powder keg are visible just southwest of the restaurant’s main building. The Cavalryman building was constructed in 1925 to serve as the clubhouse for the local country club. Just to the east, remnants of the nine-hole golf course can still be found.

Reviews
All in all a decent experience that might be worth trying if you haven’t and you’re really into meat.
To start, the current GM has only been there for two months and is in progress of making changes for the better after the history of many other GMs for whatever reason. We had a lengthy conversation with him at the end of the shift which was very informative and helpful to know the ideas he has going forth. I wish him all the success in getting these reviewed/approved/implemented because I think they are really good ideas for the place. We will return for sure for another meal here and support him/the place.
Service was awesome between the hostess and the waitstaff. Both made sure glasses were full and things were attended to as needed throughout the visit. Many other places could take lessons from these ladies in how to do customer service and restaurant biz, e.g., cleaning other tables or keeping the dining area clean, even when not attending to the customer. It was very good quality service.
The starlight ceiling is pretty cool to sit under and eat by. The site specific historical vibe presented throughout is really cool to read, look at, admire, and learn from given the location and the area. I applaud them for that. Would like to see them add some indigenous history for a complete local history relative to the historical vibe they are presenting. Laramie has such a rich history, especially this location. Get the fireplace going and some vibe appropriate music overhead in the background to complete the sitting areas.
Now, for the part we all want to read about…the food. It was phenomenal! There was a Valentine’s Day menu they made and presented, which did NOT disappoint. Pork Saltimbocca was off the charts with the two breaded pork pieces, the polenta, and the spinach. Tender, creamy, tasteful beyond what many places offer today. I would order it again if they had it on the regular menu, which is not a part of, but was recommend to be or at least make another appearance on a special occasion menu. They should be proud of it! To me, I loved the soda bread and its tie to the western traveler across the land who only had this (or soda crackers) to eat while on horseback or wagon train. The French Onion soup did not cut it for me (not warm enough and lacked a deep broth richness), but I won’t hold that against them and the rating. All of the other food seen coming out of the kitchen looked mouthwateringly good and tempting to eat!
Thank you Calvaryman for the great Valentine’s Day menu and dinner!
however the bison burger was cooked perfectly and was juicy.
The soda bread came out hard as a rock which made it very dry and crumbly. The honey butter was nice and sweet though.
The country fried steak was delicious, hand battered with thick, creamy gravy with garlic mashed potatoes. No complaints, very tasty.
The Rough Rider dinner my husband got was a little less of quality. The steak medallions were over cooked but at least they were still very tender and flavorful. They got carried away with the sauce- it was almost running off the plate and in turn, drowned the mash potatoes so they were really runny.
Overall- food was some of the best we have had in Laramie. It took awhile for our meals to come out but I don’t mind waiting on homemade food.
Service:
Waitress was friendly and attentive. Always had my drink refilled and she came by often, no complaints.
Atmosphere:
Don’t let the outside of the building fool you, it was very rustic on the inside. I really enjoyed the star light ceiling in the bar area. The bathrooms could use some attention- the sink was clogged when I went in so there was dirty water just sitting in the sink, other than that it was peaceful, quaint, and we thoroughly enjoyed the atmosphere.
Tried Mushrooms, Calamari, and Bison meatballs to start with. Had their locally sourced, grass-fed, tenderloin steak. And finished with their huge bread pudding.
Will visit again when in Laramie again.
