    Dakota’s Steakhouse offered a wonderful dining experience. The steak was delicious but would’ve been better bone-in for the value. The salmon was perfectly cooked and flavorful, and the mashed potatoes were the best we’ve had at a steakhouse. The staff was friendly and attentive—our waiter was very knowledgeable, and management ensured we enjoyed our meal. The calm ambiance, live piano music, and lack of crowding made it even more enjoyable. Highly recommend!
