    I liked the daily twofer happy hour 2-7 pm for Crown, Morgan, Tito's and Jack drinks. They also offered weekday lunch specials ($7.99 for lasagna, sloppy Joes, hot beef, etc.). I noticed a nice, three-sided bar with TVs above, 12 beers on tap, a pool table, a golden tee game, a digital jukebox, a spacious seating area lined with more TVs on both sides of the bar, classic rock background music and a spacious patio area with TVs and two rollup garage doors. I found the service at the bar to be stellar - friendly, cheerful, helpful and efficient. I also saw a couple of entrees coming out of the kitchen and they looked delicious. Very nice!

    Dinner with my bf haha food was good .. chill place..good music..nice people feels like where I grew up

    The place may not be much of a casino or a lounge, but it certainly has a few key things to keep everyone entertained.

    It was a great experience at The Attic West today! My brothers and I ordered the chislic appetizer…read morewith two separate sides. We did two baskets and tried both fry options - attic ranch fries and sidewinder fries. Both were delicious and the chislic was perfectly cooked to order and tender. Nice atmosphere, friendly staff and a fast kitchen. They also offer a happy hour. I would highly recommend this bar and grill to anyone who hasn't tried it. Happy hour is Monday-Friday 3pm-6pm. $3.00 you call it drinks

    This dinner was another thoughtful gift from one of our daughters that my husband and I somehow…read moretook months to finally use. Life simply kept getting busy, but eventually we made our way over to The Attic West on a Friday evening. Apparently, everyone else in Sioux Falls had the same idea. The place was absolutely packed and the wait was quite long. At one point, we honestly considered giving up and going elsewhere, but since this had been a gift and we'd heard many locals speak highly of the restaurant, we decided to stick it out. One thing we've definitely learned while living in the Midwest is that bar-and-grill style restaurants are deeply woven into the dining culture here. Sioux Falls has many places with this sort of atmosphere, and honestly, we've adapted fairly well to it even though it differs a lot from some of the larger-city dining scenes we were used to previously. Unfortunately, the food itself just didn't quite work for us. We ordered steak, jambalaya, and buffalo wings. The steak, despite being ordered medium rare, came out drier than we would have liked and lacked much distinctive flavor. It wasn't terrible, but it definitely wasn't memorable either. The jambalaya was probably the biggest disappointment of the evening. It was overwhelmingly salty to the point where it became difficult to really enjoy the dish underneath the seasoning. The buffalo wings were acceptable enough, but again, they also leaned dry. Service was understandably stretched because of how busy the restaurant was, though the staff themselves seemed to be working hard under the pressure. Overall, this simply wasn't quite our cup of tea in terms of either the food or the atmosphere. I can understand why it appeals to many locals looking for a lively Friday night gathering spot, but for us personally, it probably isn't somewhere we'd return to. A 2 out of 5 from us.

    CLEAN bathrooms!!! Clean floors, and clean bar! Go lucky's…read moreMake sure to have your ID out they're very strict about checking everyone's. (I love this. Especially in Sioux Falls) However it is one of the more slow bars I've ever seen for its size. (Maybe due to location, however they have a sister location downtown). But don't worry, plenty of servers and bartenders to make sure your drinks are made fresh and fast. Happy hour runs basically all day. Beer is cheap (Busch Light buckets in the can, is my favorite along with $3 well pour drinks), food is average but might be overpriced outside of happy hour. Tons of TVs they'll play a few channels on all 20 screens unless it's Sunday Night Football. I'm sure if you ask a manager to change it, they would. The "vibe" is early-2010s frat house meets casino garage -- neon aliens, with TouchTunes getting stuck but can use more coins to pick several songs to get one you like to play... on the wall about "F* your bad vibes" ...... ya. That might be the only decor that isn't family appropriate. There aren't many bad vibes here, though. It's a family style restaurant with even high tops and low. (no booths) A couple of nicee pool tables if you're into that! Regulars seem to have a great bond with the staff. Enjoyed watching the perfect harmony of everyone getting along. Service is great seeming from the happy casino regulars. Management is efficient!! Deffs need more information/ time spent with/ questions answered to give a more rounded review. With that being said, let me know what you liked/disliked. Maybe there's more in store for me to come back and try it again! Last notes: there are dozens of sports bars in town that aren't this slow on a weekday and don't feel like you're crashing someone's private party. (Seems like the perfect place to rent out for a family reunion) Local's definitely know they have enough staff hired to handle a full house. Also!!!!! If you're into donating to causes, at the time of writing this review you can donate $1 of every "Tito's Code Red" drink you order through the holidays.

One look at the menu was an epiphany... a rare, if not the only, time I could not find a single item I didn't want to order. The ambience is rustic central plains frontier.

    March 2026 Sioux…read moreFalls, South Dakota This place has a beautiful ambience. You enter and there is a warm and welcoming fireplace to the right when you enter. Straight ahead by a large open bar, you can see the meat on the rotisserie. Restaurant is large and cozy. Dark woods, modern lighting, many booths with ample seating. Floors are concrete and many nature pictures line the walls. This place has everything from handheld sandwiches to salmon and rotisserie chicken, a broad selection of appetizers and soups and salad salads. I ordered a Guinness draft and it came in a very large glass. Many tap beers to choose from. We ordered the woodfired chicken wings, a rotisserie chicken, which is accompanied with mashed potatoes and cornbread, and my husband also ordered a cup of corn chowder. The chicken wings I thought were delicious. The flavor is smoky and pepper. Not your traditional wing, but it includes the drumstick and the wing. You get six in total. It comes with blue cheese and ranch. My husband did not care for the wings. He thought they had too much of a pepper taste. My only concern was they were not served hot. They were barely warm when they got to my table. The blue cheese dressing was basically ranch dressing with a few dry blue cheese crumbles mixed in. Not a good flavor. The corn chowder was very mushy. It had the texture of baby food. He did not enjoy it. It also was served warm and not hot. Rotisserie chicken comes out with a thigh and drumstick of dark meat and white meat. However, the chicken is very dry. Taste like rotisserie chicken should taste But nothing special. The mashed potatoes are not creamy. But clumpy. They are red skin and I love when the skin is left on the potatoes. However, they taste like a baked Redskin potato with no salt, pepper, or butter. Flavorless. The cornbread has good flavor. But again, try. There is no butter to accompany it. Might taste good with some honey or butter on the side. I love the look and coziness of the restaurant. I wanted it to be fantastic. I was extremely disappointed in the food. I tried to make it work, but with the cold food and the lack of flavor, it was a big miss. When you take a bite of rotisserie chicken, and then you need to take a drink before taking your next bite of food, you know it is dry. When in Rome do as the Romans do. When in Sioux Falls Falls do not ROAM to this restaurant. I would not come back to this restaurant. I would give it 2 stars for the food. However, Darla was our waitress and she was very kind and attentive. She gets a five star rating. But the good service does not balance out the awful food.
