The food (Dolphin Street Steak is the one steak I would gladly eat over and over again - and the wedge salad is soooo good) and service are top notch. Recommend as a date night spot - I have never brought my children here. Don't do it...!

Great breakfast and lunches. Get a sandwich and dessert bar to go before heading up Spearfish Canyon. Loved by all but a bit on the expensive side. Try the Hummus wrap with cashews and avocado.

Local institution. All the serve is steak, baked potatoes, and the best salad (the ranch is some sort of secret recipe that I have been trying to duplicate for a decade! ha!). The desserts are not to be missed. EVERYONE SHOULD GO HERE WHILE IN HILL CITY.

If you are here for Rally, you probably already know where Sturgis is. But for those who are here in July and August, Sturgis is the motorcycle mecca and there are a lot of tattoo places, bars, and motorcycle gear to be found here.

Hill City is known for their fun Main Street. Great shopping, art galleries, and restaurants. Good place to stretch your legs on your way to Custer or Crazy Horse. Honestly, it is a good destination all by itself, too. 30 minutes from Rapid - with a gorgeous drive through the Hills. Eat at Alpine Inn.
