This spot is run by a lovely couple, with the wife juggling both the register and the kitchen. I ordered the Chicken Coconut Milk Curry (boneless chicken thigh simmered in a rich, creamy coconut milk curry). The flavor was fantastic -- a smooth curry with just the right touch of coconut. The chicken was incredibly tender, though I do wish they had given a bit more of it. I also tried the Papor (two pieces), a deep‑fried flatbread made from bean flour. I don't usually go for fried foods, but this was delicious and totally worth it. Last thing I ordered was the Mango Rice Pudding, it was delicious. From now on, whenever I travel, I'll definitely be checking to see if there are any Bengali restaurants in the area. This place reminded me how special and comforting truly authentic food can be.

The staff is very attentive, making sure you have everything you need and regularly refilling water glasses. The food is delicious, served hot, and comes out quickly. I've never had any complaints, and it's easily one of my top places to eat in town.

Food: We ordered the lamb biryani which was flavorful... and SPICY! there isn't an option to choose a spice level here, so just make sure if you're ordering this you have a tolerance to spice. It was definitely one of my favorite dishes we ordered here! We ordered 3 curries, and it came with 3 complementary boxes of white rice! I appreciate we didn't have to specifically order a separate side of rice. Also liked the chicken saag. The vegetable curry sauce was good. We ordered the butter chicken and the chicken tikka masala. While they tasted good, the two dishes tasted the same; they were indistinguishable. They had labels on their containers, but tbh it didn't matter. That was just our experience - everyone in our party felt the same way. Overall, the food was good and we'd order from here / come to dine here again. Just would probably not double up on the latter two dishes.

As someone who has spent over 30 years in Food & Beverage--ranging from FOH and BOH to management…read moreand operations--I rarely write reviews this critical. However, after visiting this location every two years for the last eight years, I have officially reached "Strike Three." Before addressing the failures, I must commend Mitch, the bartender/cocktail server. He was absolutely amazing, providing the quickest service of the night and doing everything in his power to accommodate the mounting issues. The staff, in general, were apologetic, but they clearly lack the operational support needed to succeed. Despite the hotel being "dead" for a Saturday night, the food service was a catastrophe: They were out of almost every standard side, including baked potatoes and vegetables. I ordered the King Prime Rib. It arrived gray, cold to the touch, and completely flavorless. It came with a side salad and I was told they were out of side salads, only to later discover they simply didn't want to chop the heads of lettuce. When a salad finally arrived, the lettuce hadn't been washed and tasted like dirt. My salad was replaced with baked beans without my consent, further complicating a simple order. Moving dining to just eight tables in a gaming room was a significant tactical error that killed the atmosphere and flow. I was blown away to see table caddies and cutting utensils stored directly on the floor under the cash register on the gaming floor. This is a fundamental health code failure. The Room The room was "fine" but unremarkable. While it smelled clean, the decor is dated (as expected for an older property). However, the chair in our room was heavily stained, which dampened the "clean" impression. I only come home every few years, and I keep hoping this place will improve. Instead, it has consistently declined. To management: You have good people like Mitch, but your operations, kitchen standards, and basic sanitary protocols are failing them--and your guests.

We were looking forward to eating a good Indian Taco while driving the Spearfish Canyon Loop, but…read moreour first choice was closed when we got there. Frantically searching for another place, we found that Horseshoe Restaurant, located inside the First Gold Gaming Resort, had made-to-order Indian Tacos. We decided to stop in for dinner. Hot Cheese Bites ($5.50) - I wasn't sure what these were when I ordered them, but hey, fried cheese is never bad. It turns out that these are pretty similar to fried cheese curds, with a very soft interior with barely any chew. Commercial frozen curds perhaps? Still, they are fried perfectly with a light crisp on the exterior and served piping hot. According to the menu, the cheese bites are supposed to come with hot honey but the server was confused and asked what dressing we wanted, of which we selected ranch. (4/5) Indian Taco ($14.95) - The base frybread is a five inch diameter puck that's quite thick. It doesn't have the traditional frybread texture - instead of being fluffy and airy like a donut, it's quite dense, reminding me of the texture of a soft pretzel. The frybread has distinctive docking holes on the bottom, which prevents rising, hence the denseness. I wonder why they do that? It does taste freshly fried and is topped with seasoned beef, shredded iceberg lettuce, cheese, olives, and pico. The seasoned beef is ground into small particles and reminded me of a Taco Bell-esque extruded meat. It's quite salty but seasoned well. (2.5/5) Everything seemed to be made fresh to order - it took around 15 minutes to receive our food even though the restaurant wasn't that full. Also, unlike reviews on other platforms, we had no issues with the service whatsoever. Bathrooms: Larger ones. You can also go in the casino for more bathrooms.

These cookies are awesome!…read more My daughter and I were waiting for our table to be ready at a nearby restaurant and saw this cookie store next door. A warm welcoming store with cookie aromas in the air! We went into this lovely little store and was greeted by a super nice young lady who was busily making cookies. She told us if we bought 6 we would get 2 free. So naturally being a cookie lover I said heck yes let's 6 and get 2 for free! We got 3 oatmeal raisin, 1 peanut butter, 1 snickerdoodle, 2 chocolate chip and 1 Oreo cookie All the cookies are loaded with chewy goodness!! Fresh and chewy..... so yummy! You gotta stop here when in Rapid City! We will be back again!

But The Cookie Shop in downtown Rapid City aims to change that perception. This locally owned, cookie-centric bakery operated under the Mary's Mountain Cookies moniker until a recent name change, but everything else about the shop has remained the same. The storefront is tucked underneath an unlabeled black awning beside the local legend Tally's Silver Spoon. Inside the single-room space, shelves of ingredients and stainless steel industrial baking equipment stretch all the way back. Christmas lights are strung from the ceiling, and the deep purple and forest green walls are minimally decorated with mountain-y tchotchkes. The blackboard counter is chalked with a Mt Rushmore-themed mural, and each cookie variety has a Sharpie-on-parchment paper description. I stopped by The Cookie Shop on a weekday morning, and I ordered right away. Across all the cookies, the dough was chewy with a dynamically rich flavor. Our far-and-away favorite was the Cookies 'N Dream -- Oreo buttercream sandwiched between two Oreo-based cookies. You wouldn't be alone in mistaking the thick, creamy frosting for ice cream, and the hockey puck size of each component felt like a sophisticated whoopee pie. But don't sleep on the more toned-down offerings. The Hopscotch (oatmeal-chocolate chip with buttscotch swirls and sugar crystals) paired solid flavors with dynamic texture, while the Americano (chocolate chip with espresso-infused dough) traded sweetness for decadence. Even the day-old leftovers far exceeded most bakeries' freshest of offerings. The service was friendly and efficient, and we were directed around the corner to the sister shop, Speed Goat Express, for coffee. The most expensive cookie varieties clocked in below the $4 mark (hence, comparable to Starbucks, Panera, or Crumbl). But the quality was god-level; it would be no exaggeration to rank The Cookie Shop's creations among the best cookies I've ever eaten, full stop.

tl;dr the extra-creamy ice cream delivers on both quality and quantity; don't be afraid to sample…read morethe more adventurous flavor offerings Compared to California, the Dakotas have far fewer premium dessert destinations. But some of the states' best ice cream can be found around Rapid City, South Dakota. Enter The Silver Lining Creamery. This small-batch scoop shop only has locations in the Dakotas. But don't count out the rotating selection of premium, handcrafted ice cream. Silver Lining is routinely ranked among the best ice cream parlors in the state. The Rapid City location is at the far corner of the Main Street Square, adjacent to the covered downtown parking lot. Countless metal tables and chairs are organized on the outside patio, and the flavor lineup is markered onto a stainless steel menu beside a seasonal service window. A bulbed "ice cream" sign sits above the front entrance. Inside, the queue twists along the curved counter. Merch shelves and a grab-and-go freezer are pressed against the exposed brick wall to the right, while a half-booth is tucked into the corner beside the side entrance on the left. The two-tiered ceiling is accented by a baby blue lighted strip, while a deep blue "ice cream solves everything" neon sign is displayed against the back subway-tiled wall. Ambient music plays lightly in the background. My group visited on a Sunday evening in late spring, and Silver Lining still boasted a sizeable crowd. The flavor lineup ranged from standard to moderately ambitious -- namely, Silver Lining offered a perfume-y sage-flavored ice cream. After sampling multiple flavors, my partner and I opted to share a triple-scoop in a waffle cone. The cone was dwarfed by the giant scoops; our staff member treated it as a personal challenge to see how much ice cream the petite cone could possibly balance. The high butterfat content was unmistakable -- the ice cream was eyebrow-raisingly creamy but not overwhelmingly sweet. My favorite flavor was the mildly mocha-y Coffee Toffee, while my partner enjoyed the true-to-flavor Butterscotch. Our final flavor, Circus Town (birthday cake ice cream with frosted animal cracker), was no slouch, either. The service was efficient and accommodating, and a monster-sized triple scoop runs $8 -- a bargain by big-city standards. I left feeling impressed by the portion sizes and the execution. For a sophisticated yet crowd-pleasing dessert option, Silver Lining is a solid bet.
