We’ve always believed that dining should be a social occasion, a time when friends, family, and coworkers can enjoy great conversation over a great meal.

We believe in supporting our local artisans and staying connected to our Black Hills community. At a time when the area is growing and expanding, we are striving to keep the flavor of the region alive.

Inspired by the history of this area, both the aesthetics of the building and the diversity of the menu are true to our local roots, something no nation-wide franchise can duplicate. Certainly, there are other steakhouses out there, but none like ours.

From the first design to the actual construction, we have focused on creating a balance between upscale dining and a casual atmosphere-crafting a chic steakhouse where the kids are welcome too.

The rest is easy-buy the very best meat possible and prepare it correctly.

    We love Dakota Steakhouse and always go there for a special occasion like our anniversary. This time we just went out for a nice meal with friends and it was so enjoyable. We were able to make a reservation, did not have to wait in line, it was not hectic and noisy, but very relaxing.

    Everything was very good especially our server Natalie. But it was very cold in the restaurant and even colder in the restroom. I think something wasn't working because the fireplace wasn't on. Still a very enjoyable staff holiday dinner!

    Arrived at 7:00 and left at 9:00. Waitress forgot to bring out salads before the food. The Prime Rib and other good was cold. The temperature in the restaurant was freezing. The waitress that we had was more focused on a large group not us. Overall terrible experience will go to Longhorn next time

    Everything was very nice, but even though the ribeye steak was full of flavor, it was too tough to eat and enjoy. Very disappointed.

    We went to celebrate my wife’s birthday and we were not disappointed. The bourbon cocktails were delicious. We all had Jalapeno cheddar soup. The jalapeños elevated the soup tremendously. For entrees we ordered walleye fillet which was large and well prepared, filet mignon which was delicious, and prime rib which was moist throughout and a delight to eat. The restaurant exceeded our expectations ( which were high to begin with) and we look forward to returning.
