“Visiting from bismarck north dakota. Saw the pictures and reviews of this place and had to see for myself. The service was so fast and friendly we were in and out in 25 minutes. The food was well prepared, and cooked to order. If you are getting the breakfast burrito, I suggest you get bacon and sausage because you deserve to spoil yourself right? Slather it up with some of their hot queso cheese and you will be talking about this breakfast for years to come. The carmel roll was definitely fantastic as well. I could recommend the carmel or cinnamon roll both, as they look like the same base roll, but they either ad a rich buttery carmel sauce too or a generous portion of cream cheese on the cinnamon roll. The 2 items listed cost $25 and some change. And in this day and age you cannot get a generic breakfast for 2 from McDonald's for the same price, but I doubt that you will even remember that the next day. Will definitely be back when back in the area.“

“Was visiting my daughters and their families here in Rapid City and neither of them had been here before so decided to give it a shot to celebrate my birthday. The atmosphere was great… service was amazing and to top it off a very generous patron anonymously paid for our meal! When we asked the waitress who it was so we could personally thank them, she said the individual doesn’t want to recognized. So both of my daughters’ husbands were unable to join us to celebrate as one was out of town and the other was sick…. Both of my daughters are in their third trimester so let’s just say we were all very hungry and wanting to enjoy! Thank you Shipwreck for the great experience and also to the generous individual for picking up our tab!“

“A staple of the west Rapid community for decades the atmosphere has never really changed, which makes it impressive. Employees embrace the culture, and the service is almost always good to the point it's a shock if anyone ever has a bad day when doing their job. The food is always edible and good. Portion sizes, though, are on the small side. So if you're overly hungry, it's either going to cost for more, or you may have to go elsewhere.“

“We have been to wings and rings a few times now so I guess it’s time to write a review. The first time I visited this restaurant I ordered some of the appetizers for a meal and they were alright, nothing to brag about. I think if anything the garlic Parmesan fries were pretty delicious. The second time I visited I ended up getting some cauliflower wings and loved their sauce options. Now the last time I went I tried their Korean chicken burger and this is where it is at. I highly recommend this burger and make sure to upgrade your fries to the garlic Parmesan covered. The atmosphere is a typical sports bar with no hard liquor but several different taps available. The wait staff has been great and I have nothing to complain about there. Great selection on their menu and choices for everyone. Would recommend as a place to take family or friends who are really picky and chicken is always a winner.“

I had the Buffalo Meat Loaf and the Flourless Chocolate Cake. Everything was amazing. The restaurant was beautiful, the food was delicious and the service perfect! Our server, Grace S, was amazing! She took great care of us. She was knowledgeable and very attentive. I asked her to suggest a good local beer. After asking me what I liked, she brought a great beer. Their musical choices were stellar! I doubt we will ever drive through that area and not stop in.“

Also the baked potatoes seem to be “dry” maybe ask for extra butter. The shrimp appetizer is really good (also super salty). I have consistently had good wait staff here and the manager has always checked on us at some point.“

“I am giving 5 stars because they had 1/2lb cheeseburger and fries for $10. It was very good. Not a fancy place, located on Highway 44. West of Rapid City SD. It was a handmade pattie, not premade round. The little general store also sells groceries. Do not go here if you are high maintenance. It is, definitely a little hole in the wall where people are hard working, kind and serve a mean cheeseburger.“
