We dined at Juniper nearly two months ago, and everything was *phenomenal.*. Because it was a…read moreMonday evening, staffing was light, so Connor, the bartender, was doing it all: answering the phone, taking orders (no note pad, nailed every course), mixing the drinks, and checking in on us all while taking care of other customers. He and his helper were polished, professional, kind, and so much fun! To enter the restaurant, you have to go through the lobby of the Alex Johnson hotel and take the elevator up to the top floor. You emerge from the elevator in a cozy foyer with enormous windows, and the restaurant is through a heavy wooden door to the right. Inside the restaurant, the decor is Art Deco, light and airy with tin ceilings and tall windows. Everything was immaculately maintained. The menu was limited that evening, but we still found everything we wanted (I am vegan, my companions were not) from starters to dessert. The only bad part was that it was our last night in Rapid City and we couldn't take our leftovers, so we just ate as much as we could. The serving sizes were generous without being over the top. We would 100% return to Vertex if we visit Rapid City again.

Go here for the games, but skip the pizza…read more Came here with the family. The kids love an arcade! They loved playing games and getting tickets and then getting their junky candy and trinkets as prizes. We did eat here on our first visit. I ordered a wedge salad and shared a pepperoni and mushroom pizza with my husband. The kids had kids meals. Portions were huge, but the food was pretty unremarkable or worse. The wedge salad was off. I think the lettuce had frozen and then then thawed. After one bite, I decided to stop eating rather than risk food poisoning. The pizza was maybe a step up above Chuck E Cheese? Bland but very greasy/oily. The kids meals had huge portions that neither kid could finish. I had a cocktail that was mostly juice. Very drinkable because it was juice. Thankfully it was a bargain (only $9.99). But other than the food stuff, the family had fun here. Enough that my husband took the kids back again (after dinner) the next night.

I'd searched for months for things to fill up my week, and with speakeasies on my radar this place was a MUST! I don't know if downtown Rapid City is usually jumpin' but it was pretty dead the night I went in July. This was fine for me as a first-timer. The drinks and atmosphere were great! The food... not so much. The lamb didn't have much seasoning or char. Make sure to follow the instructions and get your password before the evening begins. I'll definitely make it a point to come back next time I'm in town.

We specifically came to this bar to try their chislic, and it honestly wasn't bad! Personally, I'm not a huge fan of fried meats, but I'm glad this spot had the meat lightly fried and also was not salted too much. It came with about 9 pieces, and when ordering, I was asked about how well I wanted the meat cooked. Their appetizer also comes garnished with green onions, and there is also a sauce (not sure exactly what it was made of), but the chislic itself had enough taste on its own. For a Monday night, there were about 10-20 people inside watching football or having a drink, with plenty of seating and a relaxed vibe for someone who wants to come in for a drink.

I also super loved that they had things like cane sugar sodas I got this awesome rootbeer from 1919! Ryan got a cider and he got some cheesy bread. The buffalo dip was a good flavor. And it is in a cute neighborhood here we were able to walk around and explore while we are here for his work in Rapid City South Dakota!
