Named for the 1902 Owen Wister novel that made Buffalo famous, this is the dining salon of the beautifully restored Occidental Hotel. Dishes made from organic beef range from buffalo rib eye to chateaubriand and filet mignon with béarnaise sauce. Further delights include shrimp scampi, swordfish, and chicken marsala, all served amid the splendor of antique mirrors, Western art, and Victorian lamps; many fixtures are from the original building. Period lamps light the 19th-century brass-color tin ceiling, and wainscoting accents the maroon-colored walls. There's also a kids' menu, and starry-eyed couples can dine in candlelit seclusion within the old Stockmen's bank vault.

With a back-to-basics approach to food, Sackett's sells freshly butchered meats and fresh-picked vegetables free from all chemicals, additives, and preservatives. But the market has become equally popular for its delicious sandwiches, salads, and a fresh soup of the day, all made for take-out. Owner Paul Sackett Haworth's great grandfather came out west to help with the Buffalo Bill Wild West Show in the 1800s before moving the family to Big Horn, Wyoming and opening the Big Horn Mercantile. Paul takes the same principles of providing great quality food to his community at this fully stocked market.
