    Just got out of dinner here, I'm confused at to how this place has 3.8 stars…read more Just a fair warning, I don't drink. The drink menu here is 6 pages long compared to the 3 page food menu. Maybe the draw here is the drinks, I wouldn't know. We started off with the pepper jack cheese curds, which were actually pretty tasty, but it's hard to mess up cheese curds so not too many kudos there. Our entrees were extremely disappointing. The burger we got was dry, and looked like it had been nuked in a microwave. Frankly, Freddys burgers look more appetizing than the one we received. The sweet potato fries looked freshly unfrozen and sad. I got the crispy Mac and cheese with the brisket option. Brisket was fatty and dry, and the Mac and cheese was such a small portion, the 9 pieces of brisket they gave me made my plate look small. For Mac and cheese, it was alright. I've made better with $12 at home, but the brisket was extremely disappointing for the markup they charged. I almost forgot to mention, there was only about 12-13 people here, with 1/4 of those being individuals sitting at the bar. It took us close to 40 minutes to get our food! Absolute insanity since there was almost nobody here. Better yet, the food arrived lukewarm! Service was fine. Ambience was nice, the actual building itself was nice to sit in, but the food was so sad and overpriced, I'll probably never set foot in here again. I can get better Mac and cheese in the Walmart fresh food section and a better burger at Freddy's 10 minutes down the road.

Great selection and variety. It feels a little upscale here so doesn't always feel as comfy for a casual lunch with kids. I got a chicken ceasar salad and it was okay, nothing special. We loved the cheese curds and the kids meal options were good. We had a fantastic server, Miko/Mico. So helpful with the kids, was patient and checked in often. Love that. I'll always give them a chance as it's been around in town for decades now.

    We stopped in during the afternoon while traveling and were short on time. One of the reasons we…read morechose this place was because it had been recommended to us by ChatGPT for its good atmosphere and food, so we arrived with positive expectations. If you are on a schedule, hungry, or just passing through, I strongly recommend having a reservation before going. Another issue was the online menu experience. Their website would not open properly for us, and the menu information we found online did not match the physical menu we were given at the restaurant. That made it difficult to plan ahead or know what to expect before arriving. The host was initially kind enough to seat us at the bar so we would not be turned away, which we appreciated. We ordered a quick meatball dish to go and were told it would be about 10 minutes. Unfortunately, it ended up taking around 45 minutes. Had we been informed clearly from the beginning that the food would be significantly delayed, and that not having a reservation would place us at the back of the queue, we would have simply gone somewhere else and saved everyone the inconvenience. By the time the food arrived, we were tired and frustrated. During the wait, it was explained to us that because we did not have a reservation, other orders had to be prioritized ahead of ours. While the meal was ultimately provided at no charge, the overall experience was stressful and not ideal for travelers on a tight schedule. If you plan to visit, especially while on the road, I would recommend reserving in advance and allowing extra time. Good luck!

    Food is awesome - service is not. I went one Thursday…read moreevening after work in March and I had been trying to get here for weeks. I was aware this is a new-ish place but I love steak houses - from basic supper clubs to high end establishments with history and culinary renown. I have traveled all of the US and have eaten some of the best steaks money can buy... I wanted this place to be gem so badly and for it to become my go to local favorite. Time will tell but my first trip was less than I had hoped - First I was asked to sit at the bar since I was "only one person". (Strike 1). I'm a big guy... you figure the hostess might have picked up on this fact... The place was dead ... so I didn't understand this. I guess it was about an hour until they officially close and maybe we're short staffed. The bartender / servers (there were two) - but they also handled the entire casino floor bar in addition to being my waiters so I received less than attentive service because of the sheer number of people they had to service. The restaurant bar is tucked on the backside of the main casino bar. (Strike 2). I would have easily been convinced to have a bottle of wine or at least a couple of glasses and I was leaning toward trying the Porterhouse (what I originally came for) but it took so long for someone to check on me I decided one beer and something quick to eat because I could see it wasn't going to be a the stellar experience I had hoped for. This is a shame - because the food ended up being awesome. From the bread service which was surprisingly delicious / to my salad (very good) and the 10oz filet(which was actually (2) 5oz medallions ) was perfectly seasoned and cooked at an exact medium rare as I ordered it. I also tried the Burgundy Demi-Glace which was spot on perfect as far as sauces go which really showcased the taste talents of the chef. The whipped potatoes were also fantastic - exactly as I like them and could have eaten two additional orders. I wish the menu or server would have described the filet as two medallions rather than one cut tenderloin as one would expect in a fine dining establishment - but nonetheless - I was delighted by the food. I skipped desert and coffee because I the server didn't come back to ask after dinner for quite some time and I decided perhaps I should get home... The service and lack of even the most basic of attention made me feel like I was putting the staff out for coming in at 8pm. Again - not the bar staff's fault entirely but the lack of understanding of the restaurant manager is more the issue. Call it a supper club or an upscale diner if a service doesn't come with the $46 steak. The restaurant is 20 minutes from my house and I could see eating there at least once per week - I will try again and hope they work out the kinks - but I'll drive to rib& chop in Cheyenne or Rare in Fort Collins until this place matures and level of service catches up with the food quality and price . - if you want to make High Plains Steakhouse a fine dinning destination - you need to step up the service and at least try to make all patrons feel as the experience is worth the price.

There is one server there in particular (whose name I unfortunately forget, but he offers a bow of respect when serving and thanking) who always done a fantastic job. He is welcoming, attentive, knowledgeable and sweet. My only critique is that the Miso Soup could use a lot more seaweed and tofu! Its already delicious and would just be taken above and beyond if I could get more than two tofu bits per serving. Otherwise I have only good things to say about this place. My favorite sushi roll is Fire Roll with the seared steak on top lovely lovely food, thank you guys.

    Based on the strong reviews we decided to give Niko Sushi & Steak a try. We arrived Monday around…read more6pm. We were seated immediately and the place was bustling. 2 sushi chefs and I saw maybe 2 cooks in the back. Our waitress promptly took our order. I ordered a specialty roll and my son ordered the salmon nigiri . I also ordered hot green tea. Rolls came out pretty quick. However my roll was loosely pressed and the Tuna was incomplete with sear, it seared oddly. Coloring and consistency was off. Like an opalescent grey. See pic. It did not look appetizing to me. I ate it and it was tasty but again the rice was not compressed enough to give you a satisfying bite. The salmon nigiri rolls were good Also I didn't care for the presentation. The two orders should have been separated but were plated on the same plate . The miso soup was 10 stars. Delicious and a rich flavor Tofu pieces were semi firm My salmon combo dish was just okay. Salmon was dry and a bit fishy , however once dipped in the sauces it was good . The sauces were its saving grace. The veggies were well seasoned and a variety given. The rice was dry and didn't have a fresh steamed flavor or consistency We always have steamed rice at home and this just didn't have a fresh flavor or consistency. Salad was fresh, crisp and the ginger dressing was yummy. Weird Note regarding service. Once we appeared finished with our rolls (I left 1/3 of the speciality roll ) our waitress asked if we were ready for the check and if she could bring us a box . We reminded her of our main entrees we ordered and she was very apologetic and said she would check on them . Hot green tea was served in an iron tea pot. I'm thinking this was just an off night for them as the place was busy with to-go customers and other diners happily eating

I started with a delightful mocktail, moved on to perfect boneless buffalo wings, & ended with the 7 ounce filet mignon & giant baked potato for lunch. The filet was cooked to absolute perfection - exactly how I like it. The potato was delightful - it was probably 12 ounces with real butter (they have fresh sea salt grinders on the table, and that was also wonderful, as I'm a salt girl). The ambience is 100% Wyoming steakhouse which I love and honestly everything was five stars. They have a great bar and tons of parking in the lot or on the street. Go!!

    Not a local. Just passing thru…read more Had the ribeye. Was one of the better examples that I've had. Came out on a hot hot plate, which, I believe, is critical, since the prolonged higher temp keeps the fat rendering until you cut the meat. And a good ribeye has tasty fat which runs clear and full of flavor when it's served correctly. Garlic mushrooms were fantastic. Cream spinach excellent. Seth was my server. Good guy. Was covering another section and saw me sitting and waiting for an extended time so he came over to get me started. Incidentally, I ordered a Coke and water with a bunch of lemon wedges. He legit brought a bunch of lemon wedges with my two drinks. No one ever gets what a bunch of lemons is. He nailed it. Basically, if I ask for a bunch of lemons, when I'm done eating, there should be a few wedges left. Happy I stopped here.
