Wakin' Bacon is one of the hidden gems in Wall, SD. If your'e in the area and are looking for…read moreexcellent value & great food - look no further! The folks running Wakin' Bacon are super nice, down to earth, and helpful with the menu. We stopped by late on a Friday night, and I for one am always a big fan of breakfast for dinner, so Wakin' Bacon absolutely hit the spot! The menu has some great staples, and everything we ordered was fantastic, so I'd expect that's the case all around. Another highlight is just the atmosphere around Wakin' Bacon -- though it's adjacent to the motel, the outdoor seating area is fantastic. Low key, but lots of options! On the night we stopped in, there were some live performers and the tunes just added to the appeal. Double bonus, being able to bring a dog to the eating area is epic; not only does your favorite four-legged friend get to join for the party, but you also get an opportunity to make new friends as a result. Overall, I'd highly recommend Wakin' Bacon to anyone in the area -- no asterisks!

Yeah the oysters were nicely fried, crisp on the outside, nice, soft & moist on the inside (can't believe I'm describing BB's, oh look up Rocky Mountain Oysters) The Pretzels were just soft pillowy puffs.

The bartender was a darling -- professional, pleasant, fun, and thoughtful. She took good care of me, and made sure I was able to get dinner even though it was close to the kitchen's closing time. Badlands Bar has been remodeled and the interior is bright and welcoming in a natural wood finish for very basic, hand built looking furniture. The restaurant bar is quite big and I can imagine it can get quite busy and accommodate a lot of people. It's very, very clean throughout. Forndinner, I had steak tips with fries -- I asked for medium rare and it came medium well. The meat was nothing special but it was definitely lean and and exactly what I was looking for after days of backpacking in the Badlands. The French fries were great, although next time I will try the coleslaw instead. The fat fried homemade bread was not as good as one of the servers said it would be. The price for my dinner was absolutely reasonable. I will definitely return after my next trip to the Badlands.

In town for business. Came here on a Sunday night on recommendation of Hansen Cabins (which is a…read moregreat place to stay!) They had Shiner Bock, which made my Texas heart happy. Started with a side salad. The blue cheese dressing was full of chunks of blue cheese and perfect. I'm picky on that! They didn't just use iceberg lettuce but a mix of other lettuces. I like that a lot. Whiskey tips in a sauce that was great. As promised, there was a kick. Side of beans ands they were cooked to the right al dente. Just the right spices. I felt like the portions were generous. I think two people could split that order. I would have taken leftovers but was on an expense account and wanted to try another place my second night! Not many people in town. I'm sure it's crazy in summer!

Pros: Delicious, well-cooked food…read more Polite, friendly server. Cons: None that I could see. We had a nice experience here. On a not-too-busy evening, we had a server who was polite, kept to himself a bit, gave us advice on the menu items, and brought our food promptly. The bison burger was, like a lot of other South Dakota food, very delicious, cooked extremely well. Fries were not greasy with a light crispiness. Chicken tenders were also very good, nothing dry, light batter, very nice flavor. It's unfortunate some of the other reviewers had a poor experience. From our perspective, we would definitely want to come back here again.

Service was really good from the time I called to be added to the waitlist to our hostess all the way to our server. The food came out at a reasonable time. Ordered: -Kids spaghetti -Kids cheeseburger and fries -Ribeye- a little chewier but still a great cut. -Prime rib made perfectly very flavorful I was super surprise and highly recommend prime rib if you are a prime rib fan. It comes with two sides which I got to pay extra and ordered the garlic fries. Overall, I highly recommend stopping by here to dine. I have no complaints whatsoever. It was actually the best meal I have had during my visit to this state. When my sister in law recommended this spot, I did not think that I would have enjoyed it as much as I did. Just because there is not much food options in the area and I didn't think that this spot could produce really good food since I am from California and am a foodie. And well Powder House is kinda in the middle of no where. Well, 2 thumbs up from this Yelper. Add this spot to your bookmark and make sure you go! Tips: -Call ahead to be added to their waitlist. -Indoor seating only -Alcohol served here -They have a kids menu -They have their own private parking lot -Credit card accepted -They do charge for splitting plate of eight dollars. -Restroom available. -Very laidback casual atmosphere.

Frequently coming back to other tables to check if anything was needed, striking up conversation, mentioning the specials of the day (which i would've gotten if i had been offered them and hadn't heard after already ordering). We got none of that. As for the food, it's okay. Nothing to write home about for $50 dollars between a drink, an appetizer, and two mid size entrees. I'm assuming the issue is that my partner and I are both in our mid 20s and have the stereotype of not tipping, which is understandable. This dining experience we definitely did hold up the stereotype based on the complete lack of decent service. If you're anywhere below mid 30s, I'd take your money elsewhere.
