It's one of my friend's favorite places to eat in his neighborhood. I guess I don't blame him. It's…read morerather cool, I guess. My friend and I ventured here after making a quick stop at Starbucks.
I ended up spending close to $20 here during my time here, since I was celebrating the fact that I had completed another 26.2 mile foot race event in Lennox, South Dakota earlier that day. We needed food and copious amounts of it to recover. With that said, we came to Arby's even after Burger King and McDonald's looked pretty good on the drive over. After parking and walking in with tired legs, it was nice to have majority of the restaurant completely empty. Yes, it was a Sunday after all, but still cool to have the restaurant dining area all to ourselves. There was no line so I got a lot of time to just decide on what I wanted. I settled on the smokehouse burger I think. Got the meal with a large upsize. I also added fish sticks thing that they were advertising on their menu board. I was like, what the hell, I was celebrating a marathon finish, so I got that included with my order. For the most part, though, it was an ordinary fast food experience that was very nice. I enjoyed the quiet ambience of the restaurant. Wow my friend and I eat and the company was awesome too. The restaurant itself was clean, and we sat near the entrance to the restaurant in a booth. It was definitely the highlight of my day at this Arby's besides crossing the finish line in Lennox earlier that morning.
The overall experience here at this Arby's in Mitchell, South Dakota was very good, especially the ambience and the entire experience post ordering. I like to dine in a quiet atmosphere that leads me to my thoughts and other things with my friend I could talk as loud as we want, but at a respectable level. As far as the service goes, it was basically typically fast food. Just order and Grab your food maybe about 5 to 10 minutes later. Very little interaction with the staff if any. The dude who took my order was friendly, and seemed like he wanted to be there especially, on a Sunday afternoon. It was nice to come to someplace not McDonald's or Burger King or even a Jack in the Box like we have in Honolulu Hawaii. I think we have Arby's there, but not in my neighborhood and I have to travel. So coming to Arby's here in Mitchell, South Dakota.was a treat in a way because I didn't really never had it on a regular basis. So it was a treat for me. The experience last year for about 45 minutes from ordering to sitting down and Dining before heading out to sightsee for the rest of the day. The food is basic, fast, food, fair, but really enjoyable, because I did something that most people usually don't do on our weekly basis, which is running a marathon. So this trip to Arby's is basically a reward and at some level and also lunch. I enjoyed the smokehouse burger, which came with french fries and I enjoyed the self service drink station. Fraser is pretty good, which I ended up eating first before starting with the burger. The burger was delicious and it was a great complement to the french fries. The drink was awesome and really completes the meal along with the extra side of the fish sticks. I personally favorite fish sticks over the french fries but I love fish my name fries anyway. If you love Arby's or an alternative to McDonald's or Burger King and are in the Sioux Falls or Mitchell South Dakota area, consider coming to Arby's.
This Arby's location is situated hats, 1500 S Burr Street in Mitchell, South Dakota. They accept major credit cards, and as always cash is king anywhere, including here. As far as parking goes, they have a sizable parking lot for y'all to drive. Not sure about public transportation options in Mitchell, but best bet is to have a car no doubt. I am thankful for my friend who was driving me around during my short stent in Mitchell at Sioux Falls, South Dakota. Thankful for him to come to this Arby's says that steakhouse burger really hit the spot and definitely was a good lunch after running 26.2 miles in Lennox earlier in the day. If you decide on coming to Arby's, best bet is to Go online and see the menu before you decide on what you want. I've been there where I just stood there at the counter and staring at the menu for five minutes before deciding what I wanted. Not a good thing if there is a line after you, but it was cool because during my time here in Mitchell Arby's, there was no line anyway. Definitely recommended if you don't like the other fast food choices out there, but still want some thing, fast, affordable, and in the neighborhood. If you're ever in the area of Sioux Falls, or Mitchell, South Dakota, come on by. They love to have you. I know I enjoyed my visit, and I hope to come again soon, if my future travels permit me to do so.
