They are still in the stage of refreshing some of the interior but what's improved is the cookery of the food. On this visit it was their typical Tuesday Tractor night and was good to catch up on some ole friends. I ordered a typical dish which was their hamburger steak and side of mashed potatoes and side salad. I was surprised and impressed on how well the hamburger steak covered in their brown gravy sauteed onions and their mashed potatoes where especially tasty. That alone made the trip and food worth the visit. I look forward to seeing how their improved dishes is reflected with the other menu items.

I visited Prime Steak House in July 2026 for a family member's birthday. The total came to about…read more$170 for three entrées, a kids' meal, appetizers, several alcoholic drinks, and 2 desserts, which felt like a very fair price for a steakhouse with good food. I ordered the chicken sandwich without aioli, and I might have gone wrong with that choice because the sriracha ended up overpowering it a bit, but everything else was great. Service was friendly and attentive, and when it got busy another waiter stepped in and also made great conversation. The atmosphere was nice overall--dry-aged meats were on display, the tables were well set, and even the bathrooms were clean and looked really nice. It was a little cold inside, but not a big issue. Also, wine is half off on Wednesdays. Overall, a great spot I'd definitely go back to and recommend.

What we didn't like = price for the quality The spinach dip was saturated in butter floating at the top of dip. Fettuccine was also butter soaked. Steak special fillet was good. Risotto tasted like white rice mixed with cream of mushroom soup (college food). The ribeye was charred and had too much grizzle taste like the grill it cooked on was grimy and unclean. We spent near $400 on the dinner and left sick from the over butter and sick we paid that much for THAT dinner. Not worth the drive or price. Do not fool yourself that the drive will be an experience dinner.

I would normally give this 3 stars anywhere else, but relative to other restaurants here in…read moreWatertown, I bumped it up an additional star. There's plenty of parking on the street or the parking lot adjoining. Approach is open and the door is obvious. Ambiance inside is interesting; open area, semi-dimly litt with the bar to left and more table and booth seating to the right and there's a step down separate room for private events, further underpins the steak joint atmosphere. The menu options covers land, sea and air and my paaps and I landed on air and myself went with turf. The meat dish the filet oscar was perfectly cooked to medium rare with lobster, shrimp, asparagus topped off with hollandaise sauce. The chicken breast was the same quality and the dad added a side of wild rice. Wine menu is descent for the area and I ended up with a pinot that was a nice accompaniment to the steak. I've been coming to this town for quite some time and didn't know about this place, so will add it to my go to place and would recommend to anyone looking for a descent, quiet restaurant here in Watertown.

He ordered very, very rare, and explained to the waitress that he wanted it even rarer than the photo shown as rare on the menu. When it arrived, it was well done. He sent it back, and the second steak was medium well done! He ate part of it, but when you order an expensive steak, you should get what you ordered. Many had there food arrive overdone, and COLD! My wife ordered onion rings - they arrived hot, but burned - even the onion inside was BLACK - the waitress offered to bring her new ones, but she declined. ( Who wants to get their food when everyone else is already finished eating?) Even people who got their food on grill platters had cold food, because the grill plates themselves were ice cold! I think the people that had ordered shrimp were content with their food, but most were not happy. Sorry, but I don't think our group will be visiting again any time soon. It's a shame, because the old Budger's restaurant was an awesome place to eat!

The warm wooden digs and lively vibe make it a proper escape in Watertown, SD, though the only drawback is the constant buzz of chatter drowning out what should be some good ol' Dropkick Murphys tunes. I was particularly impressed by the great pastrami on homemade rye--tender, tangy meat stacked high on fresh-baked bread that could make even a New Yorker do a happy jig. Their bartenders are absolute gems, slinging drinks and banter with the charm of seasoned storytellers who somehow remember your name after one visit. One quirky touch is how the floors creak underfoot, like they're gossiping about all the pints spilled before you. Strangely enough, the soup of the day was tequila, a boozy curveball that had the whole place toasting with confused delight and empty bowls. The house brews hold their own, pairing like old friends with the hearty grub. All in all, Dempsey's is a witty, wonderful Watertown, SD gem.

This place has…read morebeen around for a bit and everyone is familiar with the quality of the food and specifically their pies. During the stint back in Watertown I didn't make as many trips to Dempsey's as I normally would but the quality of the food hasn't dropped. It's always nice when you walk in you can smell pizza being baked in their oven (s). I usually land on their Dempsey's Classic that has Pepperoni, Italian Sausage, Green peppers, Black Olives, Baby Bella Mushrooms. I usually ask for them to add another 3 mins of cook time for the extra crispy and ensure the middle of the pizza is fully cooked. They have a variety of other unique pizza's to taste but I usually go with their Classic. They also have a variety of their own in-house brews that's always changing along with their standard taps. If anyone is ever visiting Watertown definitely add Dempsey's as a go to place to try out.

The hostess told our waiter about my concerns and he tried hard to give me info on what was most safe to eat. I ordered a burger without the bun, and they answered all my questions about the toppings. I didn't want potatoes so they gave me asparagus instead. The food was really good - the best yet that I've had on this road trip I'm taking across the U.S. My dad loved his burger too and keeps talking about it. If we were staying Watertown another night we would go back again for dinner. My only complaint is that they didn't ask me how I wanted my burger. I prefer medium rare to medium, but despite that the meat was good and still tender, so it was still very delicious! Thanks, everyone!
