   Everything was pretty nice, food was good. Beef seemed a little dry and overcooked but still good. It would be nice to have a coffee pot at your table. We enjoy a good hot cup of coffee and with small cups it seems that by the time we got back to the table the coffee was almost cold again! ha Waitress did a pretty good job. All in all we enjoyed it! Thank you

   Our meal was very slow, and we got several different things wrong. But, the waitress was kind and helped make it right. We waited over a half hour for our drinks alone. Which was a bummer because we were headed to an event. I am sure the restaurant is short staffed, but we can an hour and a half before our event started, had reservations, and were still late and rushed to get out.

   Can't give any better or any worse. We weren't seated. Our Open Table reservation wasn't honored. They were under staffed and couldn't handle it. They were pleasant, and I understand nobody is working for crackers. Looked nice though.

   Went here for Valentines Day ❤️ Food & service were great. The restaurant wasn’t crowded, so it made it even more enjoyable Try the Lavender Lemon Drop 🍸 This restaurant is located in the Holiday Inn Hotel (which is getting an outdoor renovation), don’t let that deter you from going there.

   We had an unfortunately poor experience with service. I ordered a fillet and my partner ordered pasta. When we received our meal, I received a steak and she received pasta. When we started eating it, we realized that the steak was wrong and the pasta was not what she ordered. When we told our server that our food wasn’t what we ordered, he said we accidentally received the food that was intended for the people sitting beside us and asked us if we would keep the food. The pasta was too spicy for my partner and we said we would like to have the food we ordered. He then went to the people sitting beside us and told them what happened and asked them if they would be ok having the food we ordered. They declined the offer. Service wasn’t very friendly and not very organized. It also took a long time to get our drinks. The food we ordered was excellent and we would go back because of how great the food was, just had an unfortunate experience with service.

   Interesting ideas with okay execution. Spendy. Good lime crema on a somewhat blah fish. Tender ribs with a lackluster mango sauce. Creme brulee had a height/depth ratio problem that overshadowed its other problems...

   We decided to try the Gold Bison Grill for restaurant week..and we were so glad we did! The Walleye was absolutely fabulous..Rainey was a wonderful server, very attentive and if she didn’t know an answer to one of our many questions, she would find out and get right back to us..a definite return us coming!

   Restaurant week menu was phenomenal. Walleye was amazing and the ribs were excellent as well. Also had steaks at our table which were good. Service was excellent. It's not easy to find until you realize it's in the Holiday Inn lobby.

    Last minute decision. Rapid City was insanely busy, made this last minute decision. Covid and overrun with events certainly affected the experience. Food was good, and fast. Service was very distracted. We were asked questions throughout, whatever we answered, we received the opposite. Giving them a break on that, the overall experience was good.

    Only 6 people in the restaurant. Half of the orders came out Luke warm at best after waiting 35 minutes for our food to arrive at table. The steak was cooked medium rare as ordered but was very creepy and cold when it arrived. I would go to McDonald’s before eating here again

    Just OK restaurant. Next time in Rapid City, would likely not go back. No one else there. Service and food just OK. A lot of the menu items were not available. Pretending to be more upscale. No outside sign. It is inside the Holiday Inn hotel. There are better choices for restaurants.

    The server was very rude throughout the whole dinner. They were obviously very under staffed. We were handed a menu of items they were out of. Which uncles about 15 items. The “vegetables” that came with my overcooked salmon were 2 pieces of asparagus. The potatoes must have been cooked the day before and reheated. Overall terrible experience.

    First we didn’t realize this was in a hotel, should have read a bit more. Place was packed and there was only one server( he was amazing). They had a laminated list of things they were out of, mashed potatoes was on the list????? Food was below average. Very disappointed!

    Service was excellent. Even when we were not expecting one, someone would smile and wish us a good day or happy Thanksgiving. Our tables were routinely cleaned and drinks were always offered. We did not lack service. We were seated almost immediately and had access to the extensive buffet line. The food was not worth the $20-25.00 price tag. The ham was salty, the prime rib tough and once cooled tasted greasy, and the turkey very dry. The salads and side dishes were adequate. The mashed potatoes and candied yams were good. Butternut squash soup was better than Wolfgang Puck! Desserts were delicious I’m pleased I didn’t have to cook and wash dishes. We were looking forward to a better experience.

    Great food, great selections too. The staff was a bit inattentive but quick to fix anything brought to their attention. The waitress never took our drink order but it wasn't a big deal. If we had really wanted something other than the coffee at the table, we would have been taken care of though. It's a good price for what you get and the menu changes weekly so there's always something new to try.

    I made reservations at 6:00 on Open Table to eat a nice dinner here before the Bob Seger concert. It was a surprise for my sister for her birthday! Because I’ve had trouble with reservations at The Grille before, I even called the restaurant to confirm and they said, yes, we have you down for table of 4 at 6:00! When we got there at 5:55, we were not greeted and staff was acting like they were annoyed there was a crowd. When we finally were greeted, I said we had reservations at 6:00. The girl looked at the list for my name and after she found it, she told us it would be at least an hour wait! I asked how this worked when I had a reservation. She said that we shouldn’t have been able to get a reservation on a concert night and it was waitlist only. Either make reservations or don’t... it’s a little late to go eat somewhere else and get back for 7:30 concert. This is such a nice restaurant, with a great menu and ambiance. They need to greet people as if they want us there and also, reservations on a special event night would clear up confusion for patrons and staff on how busy it’s going to be.

    Chislic was shoe leather... wine by the glass was turned... salmon was alright but somewhat boring especially for the price... was in the lobby of the Holiday Inn with an indoor pool... overwhelming odor of Chlorine... server asked if everything was ok 7x in 15mins... made me question if maybe it should not have been... avoid unless you are staying there and don’t feel like driving

    French Dip dish had crunchy, overcooked meat. Butterscotch pudding tasted like a vanilla pudding with the pudding smothered in whipped cream which constituted the majority of the dessert. There was only one other table of guests but it took forever for the waitress to visit our table to ask if all was okay, to fill water glasses, and to bring the check. The experience was a dud overall.

    What a grand way to celebrate Mother's Day! Every food item on the buffet was perfectly prepared and tasty. Pasta bar, a kids buffet complete with frost their own cookie station, omelets made fresh, desserts that must have been made in heaven, rolls of every kind, and muffins are just a few items. There was no ordinary foods everything was "over the top". Not just Biscuits and Sausage Gravy, they served Biscuits and Chorizo gravy! The perfect mimosa was made. Our server was the best- friendly, helpful, and an eye for details. I know where I'm going for Mother's Day 2020.

    We were very impressed with the level of organization and overall layout of the venue. Check in staff was friendly and we were even offered a mimosa while waiting in a small line! Our table staff was friendly; however we needed to ask for drink refills. Pet peeve of mine, especially when I noticed server seemed to be texting on the phone. Outside of that small inconvenience it was Brilliant!

    Visited during restaurant week so value of the meal was great ($20 each). The walleye cake was very good, chicken with mango salsa was delicious and cooked perfect. A few issues, side item of broccoli was cold and well past its usage time - the core was turning brown (did point out to the waitress but requested no exchange) and the dessert was good, seemed like a pudding snack pack with melted sugar on top. My suggestion is to have your staff taste everything you serve - the only item she had tried was dessert.

    We were seated at the furthest back table. My ailing mother had to navigate a conference room full of tables. The ham was good, but the turkey and beef was tough and tasteless. The desserts were terrible and the coffee cups were the smallest I have ever seen.
