"The food was great. Ate here twice & both meals were enjoyable & hit the spot! They have a fake gun shootout/skit at 6pm nightly except Sunday. I wouldn't say it was very exciting & the one w watched in tombstone was better, but for free it wasn't bad"

"I didn’t stay at the hotel, my friends and I ate at the restaurant. We LOVED it! I got the Spinach Artichoke dip appetizer and it was the best I’ve ever had. The pita chips served with it were warm and soft, it was incredible. Our waitress was so sweet, I wish I remembered her name!! We are a bunch of 20 year old goofballs and she was laughing with us when we were being stupid. The service? Incredible. The..."

"Had breakfast here, as we typically do when visiting Cody. My mistake was getting the buffet. I've done it a few times in the past and have always been disappointed. Did it again because I was starving and needed food right now and the restaurant was busy. Well, should have just been patient and ordered off the menu. THIS doesn't change my opinion of the Irma, I really like this place... It's such a great place to visit!"

"Are at the restaurant. You could taste the quality of the food. Really neat history inside (the original cash register, guns behind the bar, family photos.) Food is good, a tad over priced. Simple egg, toast, bacon was about $16"

"This hotel is amazing! Beautiful and so historic! You walk in time when you enter! Clean huge rooms, and we had dinner that was delicious. I had the buffet and Prime rib, ham, veggies, mashed potatoes, warm rolls and more I forgot! Oh, and the bread pudding was dessert and was so good! I have never had it before! I walked around enjoying all the hanging artwork and antique items! The ceilings were so high, and I could just picture..."

"Dined here as a family group of 9. The restaurant was closed for a private party, but they quickly seated us in the lounge. Waitress was super nice! Overall the food was great, however, the onion rings were limp & room temp at best. Fries were good & main courses were delicious: burgers, chicken tenders, fish & chips. The history of this building is so fun too, our party enjoyed exploring it!"
