    Fun place! Great food , BUT CASH ONLY!! Kinda pricey and they expect a tip for self service..

    The Boars Nest is so amazing in the way that they repurposed so many things in the restaurant. It's not only creative but a one of a kind place to find. You can choose to eat inside, upstairs, or outside. I got the boar burger and it was delicious. The combination of the cheese burger and pulled pork is very fulfilling. The homemade French fries were also tasty with the right enough of salt and crispiness. Great pricing considering the portion size of the items. Eating outside is awesome because you have a wonderful view of the flowing stream. The wait staff is very kind and helpful. Finally, the gift shop behind the restaurant is also very cool. With nice metal posters and t-shirts. The husband and wife that worked back there were so kind. This restaurant is unique and has a rustic theme and- I can't say this enough- a wonderful place to visit and enjoy a meal, with delicious food, pleasant staff, and a wonderful scenery.

    We didn't try the food but stopped for a beer and it has a fun atmosphere! Building made from local lumber, auto decor, stream running in the back!

    Step back and enjoy this unique location fit for anyone who enjoys a fantastic food .. the menu is limited but, oh so tasty.... the fries are a must. So many great things to look at and the patio and the open air interior will keep you entertained..

    Good menu

    Very simple menu, cash only, great atmosphere with a good beverage selection. Cans and bottles only for all alcohol. I had the cheeseburger, it was delicious and I'd definitely come back for another. The fries are ok. My dad thought the pulled pork was really good too.

    Awesome find for quick stop for beer and burger. Good selection of beer. Menu is small consisting of burger, cheese burger, boar burger (cheese burger topped with pulled pork), chicken sandwich, pulled pork, hotdogs and home made fries. Decor is like auto shop/mechanic with cars and other motorized vehicles parts throughout. Second level lets you view outside or inside. You can also sir out back by a small stream. I had the boar burger. It was very tasty. The pulled pork was very good. Tender and jucy. The combination of burger and pork really worked well.

Right now it is open on Friday and Saturday evenings. If you plan to dine later in the evening be sure to call for a reservation. It gets busy during the summer tourist season. Last night I ordered the carbonara with the wedge salad. Nice presentation to both. Big portion which could be shared. Carbonara sauce is rich and loaded with bacon pancetta peppers peas etc. Just one note to ask your server about the egg served on top. I didn't want that option. My husband had the 6 oz filet. Always excellent with mashed garlic potatoes and veggies. New wine menu too! We usually save room for dessert but not last night. Their cheesecake or bread pudding are our favorites. Next time!

The Deadwood Grille is usually only open for the weekend, but because of the Valentine's holiday they were open. We were expecting the place to be packed, but because of the blowing snowstorm all day, most of the reservations had been cancelled.

They had lots of roses and red candles decorating the place for Valentine's, we had a great dinner!

My wife ordered the Chicken Primavera with gluten free penne, featuring grilled chicken, pesto, and carrots. It was excellent and easily the standout dish of the evening. I had the grilled salmon, which was cooked well and was also very good. As always, we put restaurants through a bit of a stress test. My wife has gluten and dairy allergies, while I manage Alpha Gal syndrome, a tree nut allergy, and diabetes. The kitchen was able to accommodate the gluten free pasta request, which we appreciated. The atmosphere is one of the restaurant's biggest strengths. The historic building and the old photographs covering the walls make for a fun dining experience and really add to the character of the place. Service was just okay. Nothing was wrong, but it also wasn't particularly memorable. One thing worth knowing before you go: the restaurant adds a 4% surcharge for credit card payments, so if you'd rather avoid the extra fee, bring cash. Overall, we will probably pick something else a try if we return to Deadwood. Worth it if you are heading there just for the historic atmosphere. It's a great stop if you're spending time in Deadwood.

We made reservations at the deadwood Social Club and when you walk in, it's as advertised. You walk into Saloon 10 and then take an elevator to the 2nd floor to get to the Social Club. While in SD I figured this was the perfect time to try and real bison steak and I did. You can tell it was not beef but it was delicious. The loaded baked potato was also delicious. Their signature cocktail menu included many different options. If you're ever in Deadwood, I highly suggest stopping by there. The service is also amazing.

Another very average meal in an understaffed restaurant. We arrived, and there was no one to greet us at the hostess station. I had to go to the back to the restaurant to alert them that there was now a queue of people waiting to be seated (others arrived after us). Our waitress was very nice. I think she was the only person for the whole restaurant. Thankfully we weren't in a rush, but service was slow. We ordered a couple beers and sodas for the kids. One of the beers was not available, so I switched up my order. The beers were locally made and pretty unremarkable. We started with the game sausage sampler. They were fine but not great. Then my kids had their kids meals, and I had the game burger, and my husband had a regular cheeseburger. I thought the game burger was fine, although I couldn't really tell that it was made of any meat other than beef. So not gamy, but not really remarkable either? This is a sports bar in a casino. Strangely enough, two of the screens were showing a pickleball game. I guess that's a sport, but really?

After a long day of traveling, we called to place a takeout order about 30 minutes before closing. The employee who took our order, a woman in a green shirt, listened while my sister and I ordered, then let out a loud, frustrated sigh and said, "Ugh... is that it then?" Her tone made it very clear that our order was an inconvenience. When I arrived to pick up and pay, I stood at the counter much longer than I should have, and it became obvious I was being ignored. The woman in the green shirt who had taken our order made eye contact with me multiple times but continued to act as if I wasn't standing there. There were three employees behind the counter, yet none of them acknowledged me. The only person who finally came over to help was a kind woman who had been sweeping on the other side of the restaurant. She stopped what she was doing because no one else would. I have 13 years of waitressing experience, so I completely understand how frustrating last-minute orders before closing can be. However, that's never an excuse to treat paying customers with disrespect. We called before closing, were polite throughout the interaction, and simply expected basic customer service. If taking an order 30 minutes before closing and acknowledging a customer at the counter is too much to ask, then maybe customer service isn't the right fit. Being busy is understandable. Being rude and pretending customers don't exist isn't. Needless to say, we won't be back.
