My wife’s trout dinner was poor tasting and inedible for her, she had to order the walleye instead,so got her food when everyone else was done with theirs. Our loaded baked potatoes arrived at our table cold. My New York strip was ordered rare and came to the table medium-medium well. I didn’t send it back so I didn’t have to wait and eat after everyone else had eaten. The lone bright spot was our waitress who was working only her second shift here and she did a great job trying to make things right. I would recommend dining elsewhere in Sioux Falls.

Food was great however service was actually poor. We usually leave 5 stars for Minerva’s and will be back because we know this isn’t the norm. Server spilled water on table when reaching all the way across, and left it for us to clean up, removed a cocktail from the table without asking, it just felt like a very off night.

The best Scottish salmon I have ever had! My husband said his filet was the best he had ever had and we thoroughly enjoyed the mashed potatoes. Well done Minerva’s!

Riley worked hard rushing from table to table. The issue was the kitchen/food. We arrived at 540 for a 545 reservation snd opted to wait a few minutes more for the booth requested on the reservation. We were seated by 550, and our food arrived at 641. Great, let's cram it in our mouths because we have a concert at 730. Not only was the kitchen slooow and likely overtasked, my chicken oscar with mashed potatos came out in a puddle of opaque light brown liquid with a broth consistency. Since it took so damn long to get my food, I pushed the chicken and potatos away from the puddle and ate around it. No puddle on my wifes same meal/plate across from me. It was extremely unappetizing and ruined the experience of going to dinner and paying someone lots of money to cook a meal for you. My wife and I talked about this afterward. We keep giving Minerva's more chances, but they really are bad compared to Maribella's or Chef Lance. Im done with Minerva's. Every time we come here its bad food, bad service, or both. Read my post history Minervas.
