JL Beers - Burger with cheese and special sauce

JL Beers was so delicious! It was recommended to me by a long time local! Small divey place nothing…read morefancy about it but with about 30 beers on tap and cooked to order burgers and fries! Chicken sandwiches are also available. I got a burger with cheese, onions, and special sauce, a big order of sea salt fries (choose your seasoning) and 2 craft beers for $24!! The bar has about 20 seats and there's several tables for table service. Not great for a big party, but perfect for a quick, but hot delicious lunch or dinner! The bartenders were attentive and kind and I will definitely be back! I'm sad I didn't get to try the root beer float with on tap root beer for less than $5! I'll just have to go back!

One Sunday afternoon my husband and I found ourselves wandering around DTSF -- which, for…read morenon-locals, is the commonly used shorthand for Downtown Sioux Falls -- looking for a good burger place. And somehow we stumbled right into JL Beers. Or perhaps more accurately, the scent of burgers guided us there like a pair of hungry travelers following a greasy North Star. Either way, what a fantastic little find this turned out to be. The burgers were juicy, flavorful, and properly satisfying in the way a good burger should be. Not overcomplicated. Not trying too hard. Just well-prepared comfort food done right. The fries were excellent too -- crisp, well-seasoned, and dangerously easy to keep eating long after I was already full. The service also impressed me quite a bit. Even on a busy Sunday afternoon, the staff remained attentive, friendly, and efficient without making us feel rushed. One unexpectedly fun part of the visit was trying non-alcoholic beer options for the first time. My husband and I are not really drinkers, so this was a little adventure for us. The sparkling hop water was surprisingly refreshing and delightful, while the Athletic non-alcoholic beer leaned a little more bitter than my personal preference. Still, I appreciated finally getting to try some of the newer NA options people have been talking about lately. And honestly, this place wound up becoming one of our gateway restaurants into exploring more of DTSF afterward. We have returned several times since, usually combining it with walks around downtown and trying other local spots nearby. Now, of course, every local already knows the true final boss battle of downtown Sioux Falls: Parking. At some point you simply accept that you are either going to circle the block repeatedly like a confused migrating bird or surrender gracefully and use one of the nearby parking garages. Which honestly is not the end of the world. The walk is good for us. At least until winter arrives and the sidewalks become an Olympic slipping event sponsored by snow, ice, and regret.

Hundreds of Hops US Hop Passport Amazing Brewery Race Stop 5 - 3 of 5 for South Dakota…read more Remedy is a brewery that sticks on our memory rather well, so each time we visit, we expect a stellar experience then feel like it could have gone better. Staff are friendly enough though not the most informative or personable encountered & I like the brewery itself. I love that they have a cheese fridge, meaning they're probably aware cheese & beer go GREAT together. They do allow samples, tho you (I) feel pressured to pick & get out of the way for the next person to order. This is a place that I need just accept being "that girl" to sample before ordering, even if it's something in my preferred categories. It just seems to be about a 50/50 shot as to hit or miss. Of 20 brewery visits, this was the only one that had a DNF beer. We agreed 1 of the 2 selections was a total loss & dumped it. Since it was bogo, no financial loss and we weren't upset by it. It was simply a miss. That said, the other selection was good (50/50 eh)

Came in for lunch with business colleagues so didn't try the beer. Had the chorizo and queso dip…read morefor an appetizer and it was very good. For my main I had the chislic, and it was cooked well, served with chips but they didn't have garlic salt? Beef was tender and tasty and would definitely try again Service is at the bar, you order and pick up your food- at least for lunch, dinner may be different? Would like to come back and try the beer, had some interesting flavors for sure
