Restaurants in Rapid City

“First time diner...the food was delicious! Started with a Mango Lassi....then on to cheese stuffed Naan bread, came with 2 dips...one had a BBQ taste to it...grew up in the south, so that was my favorite! Also enjoyed the steamed chicken dumplings....If I could give it 10 stars, I would...will definitely be back!”

“Great place. Good food. Great service. Friendly staff. Killer cinnamon rolls!!”

“The flavor is so authentic. Most definitely one of my favorite curry restaurants”

“If you're looking for authentic Bangladeshi food, this is the place to be! I had a great experience dining here-the flavors were spot on, and the dishes truly reminded me of home. Highly recommend it for anyone craving real Bangladeshi cuisine!”

“The food was wonderful and there were so many options! Buffett is currently closed due to pandemic but they have a very large menu of options - Indian to Central Asian with some Nepalese specialties - as well as mixed platters to make it possible to try a variety of things. The menu descriptions are fairly detailed and the spiciness level is a question asked for most items mild, medium, spicy). prices run from 8-12 for appetizers and 12-20 for meals and mixed platters which seems quite reasonable for the serving size and skill in preparation. It would be a wonderful place for families, romantic dinners out, or a good place to meet an old friend and talk over 2 or 3 courses. Inside was very comfortable, good spacing and light, not too loud, with many beautiful decorations and carved accents. The owners and staff were wonderful - friendly, accurate, quick to help and quite fast food preparation. I would absolutely come back!”

“What a surprise this place was. My expectations were far exceeded. Delicious.”

“Had an awesome experience with my friend, great food, Morgan was awesome! I’ll definitely be back”

“Love this place! I sneak in and have breakfast every Saturday morning!”

“Chuck Wagon Supper and Show is a great experience - good food and fun entertainment! Enjoy the Dances with Wolves Exhibit and stop in early enough to see the Ropes, Tin, Blacksmith - make some toilet paper sturdy rope, engrave a shingle or brick, and make your own tin plate. A must stop for the whole family --”

“This place has food that is so very good!!! Highly recommend!!”

“Came in for my birthday dinner and was PLEASANTLY surprised! Brooke was a wonderful welcoming server and the chefs knocked out out of the park! Thanks for making my celebration so peaceful”

“This place is always buzzing with customers, so be prepared for a bit of a wait—but trust me, it’s more than worth it. The food is absolutely phenomenal, and the staff couldn’t be more welcoming. They consistently go above and beyond to ensure every guest feels valued. And when it comes to pizza? No contest—this is hands-down the best in town.”

“Best Mexican Food in the Black Hills. Absolutely my regular go to for home cooked comfort food. Staff is friendly, professional and welcoming. Place is clean, comfortable and inviting. Food is fantastic and served quickly. Must go for best Mexican food in the black hills.”

“The customer service was amazing! I emailed this location asking for a special touch to my order because I was having them delivered to my family with a surprise message. Abby emailed me back so quickly and was happy to help me! She wrote exactly what I wanted on the box and even emailed me a picture so I could see what it looked like before it got delivered. I bake a lot and am honestly not *that* impressed by Crumbl cookies usually, but the customer service at this location has made me a big fan :)”

“Great staff, service, and food!”

“Another fabulous meal! More food than you can eat delivered very fast! Always a good choice!!”

“Highly recommend! Great food, atmosphere, and customer service!”

“In our opinion, this is the best steakhouse in the Northern Black Hills. Everything is consistently plated beautifully, delicious and executed well. Atmosphere is elevated but not unapproachable. Service is wonderful. The ONLY drawback is that the wine list leaves one wishing for better. Cocktail list is lovely though. Five stars ⭐️ from us.”

“Everytime I've came to this place I have a great experience. Today was my birthday and even though I did not ride the saddle. The waitress made it a great day with her bright service and the birthday ice cream. Food was cooked perfectly even I got to full to finish and not once felt judge for dinning by myself. Thank you!”

“Where to start on this…. I guess at the front door where we met annually nice and sincer Gentleman who gave us our card pass and instructions how to get to Juniper since we have never been there. Met an Awesome young man in the elevator who worked there and gave us an over view of Juniper and what to expect.
Greeted by Jamie and led to our table looking east over the city!!! Great view. Jamie was also our server and helped and made suggestions for our meal!! She was SUPER SWEET and knew her job…. And was soooo much fun as she helped make this a Special Evening for my wife and I.

We started out with an appetizer of Bread with French Baguette bread, Garlic Butter, Balsamic Vinegar and Olive Oil… one of my favorites!! My wife ordered the the Roasted Beet Salad and I a Caesar Salad. Both Excellent!!!
Our Main entrée was Wild Caught Alaskan Halibut and I had the Steak Special with Scallops. Both Dishes were INCREDIBLE!!! The flavor of her Halibut was outstanding and I would order anytime. But I have to say about my steak…. It was the BEST STESK I’ve had in Rapid City in the 51 years I’ve live here. Cooked to PERFECTION (Med Rare) with the most outstanding sear that added sooo much flavor!!! Only place that compares to this is Mortan’s Steak House in St. Louis.
This was Truley a night for us to remember with the view of Rapid City at night, the EXCELLENT FOOD and SERVICE!!
I can’t Thank Jamie, the Chefs and Staff for making our Night Out one to remember!!!!!”

One had the brussel sprouts that had maybe 3 slices and the rest was burnt, loose leaves. Manager blamed it on the supplier, if that is the issue then remove it from menu, there were at least two other items not available.”

I appreciate her mission to help the people in the community. Thanks, Rhonda! You do a great job! If I need catering again I will be sure to call you!”

“Absolutely delicious. I was in Custer for a week and drove up to Rapid City to get some sushi. (Not that Rapid City is a well-known hot bed of sushi, I just don't live anywhere near a sushi restaurant, so I take advantage when I can.) Anyway, well worth the drive.

The fried oysters appetizer was perfectly done with a sauce that I am saving as a dip for other things. All of the rolls I got were perfectly balanced. The Ace Roll was my favorite.

Lovely family running it as well.

I will definitely be returning the next time I am in the area, and I recommend you visit this place if you are in Rapid City.”
