I visited Killian's with my family and was pleasantly surprised by how good the food was. I ordered the zucchini noodles with blackened salmon, and it did not disappoint. The flavors were bold and balanced, and the dish was light but still satisfying. What I really appreciated is how this meal can easily be made vegan or vegetarian by simply skipping the salmon -- the zucchini noodles on their own carry great taste and texture. Whether you're plant-based or just looking for a healthier option, this dish is a solid choice. I'll definitely be back for it again. Highly recommend Killian's if you're in the area and want something fresh, flavorful, and thoughtful! read more

Two words: roasted beets! I've had two dishes that include Killian's house roasted beets and they are both delicious. The first is an arugula salad with goat cheese and bacon. I added cooked chicken which was served warm and went perfectly. The other is a plate of warm kale, roasted beets with a fried egg and a splash of Tabasco. It sounds weird but it's amazing! You get a side too and I ordered it with the garlic infused mashed potatoes. They also have $7.50 gourmet burgers during the week and delicious fries. One of the best craft beer selections in the area. Good local beers on tap too. read more

Our last stop in Spearfish on this vacation. It did not disappoint. Our server Amanda did very well for us. Social distanced as best as could be. We started with the crab stuffed mushrooms. Piping hot which led me to believe they were microwaved but the flavor was there so no complaints I had the bacon Mac and cheese and added chicken. The girlfriend had Thai curry noodles with chicken. Both were delicious. We also had a sangria that did the trick. Will recommend this restaurant to anyone that asks about Spearfish. read more

We are from Las Vegas where there are plenty of places with excellent food. So while traveling we like to Look for places to experience the local flavor of the towns where we stop. We decided to try Killiqn's tavern in Spearfish, SD. It was an excellent choice. We had the petit steak, excellent. The decor was great, a laid back atmosphere where you can converse and actually hear each other. We highly recommend this place. Also our waitress Kylie was fantastic.

After a long day of traveling, we called to place a takeout order about 30 minutes before closing. The employee who took our order, a woman in a green shirt, listened while my sister and I ordered, then let out a loud, frustrated sigh and said, "Ugh... is that it then?" Her tone made it very clear that our order was an inconvenience. When I arrived to pick up and pay, I stood at the counter much longer than I should have, and it became obvious I was being ignored. The woman in the green shirt who had taken our order made eye contact with me multiple times but continued to act as if I wasn't standing there. There were three employees behind the counter, yet none of them acknowledged me. The only person who finally came over to help was a kind woman who had been sweeping on the other side of the restaurant. She stopped what she was doing because no one else would. I have 13 years of waitressing experience, so I completely understand how frustrating last-minute orders before closing can be. However, that's never an excuse to treat paying customers with disrespect. We called before closing, were polite throughout the interaction, and simply expected basic customer service. If taking an order 30 minutes before closing and acknowledging a customer at the counter is too much to ask, then maybe customer service isn't the right fit. Being busy is understandable. Being rude and pretending customers don't exist isn't. Needless to say, we won't be back.

As two other guests are sitting there had their dinner interrupted by this unfortunate incident, let me know and stated, "yeah he's a dick". This is how yall do business?!
