Could this be the last review for Powder House in 2026? Maybe. Tonight was their last night being…read moreopen for the season, so who knows. How do I put this lightly? If I could, I would give Powder House 6 out of 5 stars. My wife and I had an amazing time there tonight. Our server was Emily and she was an absolute gem. She suggested all the right meals and we were both blown away by the quality and taste of everything. I went in planning to get a steak, but at Emily's suggestion, I ordered the bacon-wrapped buffalo filet mignon. It was cooked to absolute perfection--every bite was tender and juicy. It ranks among the best steaks I've ever had, so you can take that for what that's worth. My wife had the chicken alfredo and said it was one of the best she's ever had, too. I would highly recommend getting reservations if you plan on coming. This was a meal and experience we will talk about for many years to come. If we ever make it back to the Black Hills, we will most definitely be stopping by.

Had the Omelette with bacon, ham, tomatoes and mushroom, also French toast and pancake…read more The Omelette was really good. Very generous on the ham and bacon. The ham tasted like cooked in brown sugar and honey which complemented the more savory slightly salty bacon bits. The bacon had a drier texture and more like crumbles vs chopped bacon pieces but worked well with the other ingredients. Mushroom was grilled and added an earthy flavor which balanced the heavier meat ingredients. The side of potatoes was really good, too. It was cut in cubes, lightly coated with some kind of starch and fried. The coating has the flavor of seasoned curly fries. Lightly crispy on the outside but soft on the inside. I chose rye from the bread options. The french toast was also yummy; cinnamonny and eggy flavor but without being overly soaked in custard nor soggy. This was a side order for additional cost. The pancakes tasted like it had sweet cream and had a nutty hint of flavor. More dense than fluffy but was good. Reasonable prices for the quality and amount of the food. Staff were nice and friendly. Great ambiance, too. The restaurant has a very cozy homey feel with the country style decor. Windows wrapped around most of the dining area. Plenty of parking. Highly recommend if you're around Keystone South Dakota or nearby area.

I had the 10 ounce 'fuzzy cow' (buffalo) and it was cooked correctly. Minimal bristle which is a positive for that type of meat. Salads were par at best. Restrooms were well maintained. Expect to pay tourist location prices, but they are trying to keep them in check. Parking is a wee bit of a challenge, but once you find a spot keep it and you'll find a majority of this area is within walking distance.

With easy access and parking it was a quick way to get some food before hitting the road again.

Visited on 5/12/2026 with my family after a long morning at Mount Rushmore. The location is…read moreconvenient -- right inside the monument -- but convenience and the view are about the only things going for this place. We ordered the Philly Cheesesteak ($18), a Cheeseburger ($17.50 + $0.75), and the Grilled Chicken Platter ($14.50) for our kid. Total came out to $54.50 for three people -- which, okay, it's a tourist spot, so I expected to pay a premium. What I didn't expect was to pay premium prices for food that felt like it was barely tried. The Philly was overcooked and dry. The meat was dark and tough -- no juiciness, no flavor. For $18, that's just not acceptable. The burger looked decent but tasted flat and underwhelming. The Grilled Chicken Platter for my child was the most disappointing -- it's listed as "grilled" on the menu, but the chicken came out barely touched. Pale, soft, almost like it was steamed and then given a quick pass on the grill just for looks. The mashed potatoes and corn on the side were fine -- nothing special. I'll give credit where it's due -- the ambiance is genuinely great. Eating with a direct view of Mount Rushmore is a cool experience you won't get anywhere else, and the dining area has a nice open feel to it. Service was also okay, no real complaints there. But when you're spending $54 on a family meal and every main dish misses, the view only carries you so far. If you're visiting, pack your own food or eat before you arrive. You'll thank yourself later.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
