    Chicken philly
    David G.

    It's overpriced. The food is ok. The service is meh. What does this place have going for it? It's better than the cafe at Wall Drug. That's the draw. I went with the chicken philly. It's not bad. Kinda tastes like something you can make at home. The fries that come with it, however, are pretty tasty. The rest of the family got personal pizzas. They weren't great. They were ok. I'd say on the level of a DiGiorno. Edible. Serves the purpose. But when the bill comes, it's gonna hurt a little more. I'm not telling you not to go. After all, there isn't a ton of choices in Wall, and it is better than where most people go in Wall Drug. But with any tourist trap, you never feel great afterwards. You've been had. And you know it. If given the choice, I'd recommend avoiding Wall altogether as far as dining goes. Drive down the road a tad and get something better and more reasonable.

    Food was mediocre, appetizer was very very little quantity for price. Main meal would of been more enjoyable without all the flies swarming around us

    I ordered the "mashed potatoes topped with chicken breasts". What i got was a pile of mashed potatoes with two chopped up chicken strips... yes, chicken strips. That plate was $15.50. Extremely misleading. All our plates were on the higher price scale and def not worth it.

    Wall doesn't have a lot of options and I wanted a decent burger. It has 4 stars and I'm hoping for the best. After I got the burger I noticed no lettuce and tomato. Found out you have to ask for it. They were generous with the fries. Good service friendly staff and the place seems clean. I don't expect too much and it was really good.

    Food was a solid OK and the service struggled between neglect and downright rude. Food: Ordered the Rancher Burger which had great bacon and a thick hand pressed patty. The bun was forgettable and the sauce nonexistent. Service: Waited a solid 20 minutes before anyone came to get our drink order. Waitress came to our table a total of 4 times in 1 hour and 15 minutes. Once to drop the menu, once to drop drinks and take orders, once to drop the check. Had to laugh when the couple next to us waived down the waitress and she yelled across the room that their ticket was next. Didn't bother to ask them what they wanted, probably thirsty like us after buying a $3 small single cup of soda which appears to be the visit limit. Severely disappointed we stopped to eat here instead of just continuing into Rapid City. This was 2PM so not exactly busy.

    Across from the biggest tourist trap I have ever seen - we had a blast at Wall Drug, but when you go there...... Eat here. Great burger with a nice bar. Then head back to the BadLands. Clean and reasonable - nice people.

    Bacon cheese burger. I ate half before remembering the pic!

    Decent burger joint. They have other menu items but I didn't want to get too fancy. Everything was pretty good. Strong Russian work force and their English wasn't great. Good service tho.

    Salty Steer - Large Wedge Salad, a very good meal with real chopped bacon and ripe sweet cherry tomatoes. The ranch is better than the blue.

We stopped by earlier to find out what time they were open until and even on July 4th they were still open till 10pm and even said we could walk in at 9:30 and still get served. We came back close to 9 pm. I wanted something light since I was going to be taking pictures for a while. The ultimate wedge salad with sirloin was delicious. The steak was cooked perfectly and my brothers bacon cheeseburger looked like something you would see on an ad. The service was phenomenal, they have a full bar and some nice cocktails as well. It's two levels and plenty of seating. Definitely a place to stop if you're in the Badlands.

The steak fries are terrific and the sides like Brussels sprouts are cooked perfectly. I haven't had the steaks but they serve prime beef and if the burgers are any indication, them I wouldn't hesitate to try them if that's what you're looking for. Is it perfect? No. The salads are overdressed (no surprise for South Dakota). But you won't do better around here. Wander into Wall Drug to say you did. Get a 5 cent cup of coffee if you like. Then walk over to Salty Steer for the only good meal you'll find near Badlands.

    Salty Steer - Outstanding regular cheeseburger with crisp steak fries. Great juicy burger, ordered medium rare and cooked perfectly.

Starting with the burger: the bun and beef burger weren't all too great. To be honest, the actual patty was mediocre at best, and the bun should've at least been toasted in my opinion. The brisket on the burger was a different story. It was smoky, tender, and flavorful. The pulled pork and sausage were good as well. The mac and cheese was decent, but I threw some brisket in there and it elevated it quite a bit. For what you get, in terms of flavor and the overall portion, I'd say it's overpriced. Maybe I'm being harsh, but if I'm paying $30 for a burger and mac, I want every component to be great - I have no doubt that most people could've made a better burger (the patty itself) at home. It was an experience, but truthfully, you could get a better burger at Freddy's or another fast-food joint. Hopefully I'm the outlier and someone just dropped the ball on my order. The restaurant was clean and the staff relatively friendly.
