Lol. There's a reason the first and only suggestion was ice cream. Dakotans don't know crap about good food. They like to think they do. Rib tips are a decent dish served locally though. Get them plain (marinated) and not deep fried. Whoever thought that deep frying red meat was a good idea should have been shot. And deep fried.
That being said, a few decent restaurants stand out that you might try. Firehouse Brewing in downtown Rapid. If you end up in Custer, the Baker's Bakery and Sage Creek Grille are decent. The Latchstring Restaurant in Spearfish Canyon. The Gas Lamp/Light in Rockerville between Rapid and Hill City. All are family friendly. And Armadillos is mediocre ice cream at best. Kind of like the Sugar Shack, I could never understand the appeal. |

That advertising magazine has a ton of coupons and listings of places to get a good steak. The Rapid area has a ton of good places to eat. |

The wife and kids and I are making a road trip vacation for a couple weeks and plan on spending a few days in the Rapid City area, to take the kids to Rushmore, Crazy Horse, Wind and Jewel Cave before heading further west. Is there any need to try local places. Lots of our meals on the trip will be done at camp sites but since we will be in the area a few days if any locals want to make recommendations it would be appreciated. Thanks Cason Enjoy SD, OP. We spent some time in the hills this summer and had a really nice time. Wind Cave in particular. I don't really remember where we ate, I'm not a foodie, but we had a great time. |

In a HTF that you do not belong to you came in here bad mouthing an entire state, and you want to claim that the people of South Dakota are arrogant. Gotcha. |

Baker's Bakery in Custer is known for gigantic sweets and reasonable prices. Quality is good, not great. I liked the food at Colonial House in Rapid City. Basic, but good quality. After a week of eating junk, it tasted great. The restaurant at Cedar Pass Lodge was also better than expected. Too many flies though.
