We were visiting from North Carolina and celebrating our anniversary, and the entire experience made the evening incredibly memorable. From the moment we arrived, the host team was warm and welcoming. Although we were about 15 minutes early, our table was already prepared--a small detail that showed genuine care and attention. Our wonderful server, Teagahn, was full of smiles and positive energy. She took exceptional care of us throughout the evening and made us feel completely at home. The food was spectacular and far exceeded our expectations. We've experienced everything from hole-in-the-wall gems to high-end restaurants such as Michael Mina, and Skogen ranks very high on our list--honestly, even better than Hell's Kitchen. Every plate placed in front of us was thoughtfully prepared, beautifully presented, and full of flavor. The lobster salad and lobster bun were delightful starters. Our swordfish and filet were cooked perfectly, with balanced flavors and well-proportioned servings. What elevated the experience even further was watching Skogen's remarkably talented young kitchen team--mostly in their late teens and early twenties--handle a very busy dinner service like seasoned professionals. They were focused and polished, yet still friendly and personable. A special shoutout to Dominic, Teagahn, Rosalinda, Lance, and Joseph, the executive chef and owner. The combination of amazing food, genuine hospitality, and an outstanding team made our anniversary dinner one we will not forget. Our entire experience at Skogen was exceptional. It is highly recommended and absolutely worth planning your visit around!

Everything we ate was delicious, but to me the standout were the ribs. We did have to be a bit patient in getting our food since it's just the 2 owners doing all the work of serving, but it was well worth the extra minutes wait. If I could make one suggestion to the owners (and I say this with love) - more side dishes that are not mayonnaise-based would help diversify your menu just a bit. I wish we lived closer bc we'd eat here all the time and I didn't even get to try the stuffed jalapeños yet!

She was nice and did her best to keep our waters filled and tables cleared. The place is clean, which is something I always pay attention to. The chips were my favorite! Fresh, and served warm with a very tasty salsa. We asked for a refill of our chips and our waitress gladly brought them. We ordered a carne asada sope, pork tamale and a chili relleno. All were excellent! My husband would have liked to have cheese dip but didn't want to spend $7.99 on a larger bowl when he just wanted a small amount. It would be nice to have two sizes and maybe more of an expanded lunch menu beyond burritos only. We will definitely stop here again on our next trip through town. And I'll order a house margarita for $6.99! They are located directly across the street from Maverik convenience store. They also have a convenient drive through if you are on the go and don't have time to dine in. Enjoy!

Unless you like being lost without cell service. You will regret not heeding my instructions. Also, know you need reservations! If it is winter time, do not trust your GPS when it tells you that you can passover from Hill City to Wyoming. It is a filthy lying dog. You might end up waist deep on a snow trail and on your feet. I didn't quite get that far, but it was dicey turning around from how far I did get. Now, for the place. Love the atmosphere and love Judy and Frank and their non-nonsense approach to serving food. They were so friendly and welcoming, and treated us like family. We ordered ribeyes and prawns, along with desert (it was my daughter's birthday). Our steaks were flavorful and good cuts of meat. Our only complaint was that they were a tad bit overcooked. Frank says that they will do better next time, and we trust them! We are true-blue ranch raised Texans who mean it when we say we want our meat somewhere on the line of blue and rare. However, because the meat was good quality and full of flavor, we were forgiving and still ate it all! You do not choose your sides here. You get what you get, and it is good. I do not even usually like asparagus, yet it was scrumptious! We had delicious potatoes too. Our family is eager to return and eat again, once the trail between here and there is reopen. We don't mind driving that far to eat there either, but when it is 20 minutes vs 90, it will be much more frequent for us. This place is truly a jewel.

They constantly check in on you, and provide a very positive environment, 10/10 service. The interior is fun, they have plenty of seating indoors and outdoors, there are random climbing decor, trinkets, paintings, and it's just a fun atmosphere. We ordered the fish and chips, fried green beans, pub sandwich with smashed potatoes and bread pudding. The fish was perfectly battered, it was crispy, light and the sauce they served with it was perfect. We absolutely loved the fried green beans, they were crispy and tasted amazing with their housemade garlic parmesan and spicy ukranian sauce. The spicy ukranian is a slightly tangy and creamy sauce. The pub sandwich had a good crunch from the citrus slaw, good tang from the pepperoncini and the bread was so soft. They also have 1990 rootbeer and it is amazing. The real star of the show was the bread pudding. I have never really been a fan of bread pudding but this one is a must. It is warm, soft, and just the perfect texture. The top is sugary with a little crunch and topped with whipped cream. They don't put nuts or raisins. I absolutely loved it. Definitely will be back for the amazing service, rootbeer, fried green beans and of course the bread pudding!

We sat outdoors and other than the flys which no real way to stop them it was a nice setting. This stop was on a long distance family vacation and was on our highlights.
