The dinner was standard but the service was good. The desserts are amazing. Probably the best place I town read more

Absolute worst hamburger steak ever. Overcooked to the point of not being able to chew it. sweet potato fries were fried to within an inch of their lives. The salad bar was nasty looking but it was so dark that you could barely see the ingredients. There was one person working the register, waiting tables and bussing, and she was not happy. Definitely would not recommend. read more

Great burger, good waffle fries, our waitress was very nice and friendly. The other one was horribly rude!!! We waited a long time for our food and it wasn't overly busy, but almost every table was taken. Out of grilled chicken, AND crispy chicken, prime rib, sweet potato fries, tater tots. Dark, interior in DIRE need of an upgrade. The bathrooms were old and dark. read more

The food was good, it wasn't the best, but definitely better then most The service was great, open later

We stopped in for breakfast and found out that they don't actually serve breakfast. So, we opted for burgers, which is the majority of the menu. My wife and I both had the Creighton burger-- 1/3 pound patty, Gouda, bacon, and bacon jam. The burger was dry and I think that it was a frozen premise patty. The bacon jam wasn't jam at all--more of chopped bacon with some sugar added. Definitely not worth the $13 price point. Waffle fries, potato oles, and regular fries were good. The chicken noodle soup was great--thick egg noodles and big chunks of home chopped carrots. read more

not really much around here. patio seating but lots of flies. staff was so nice, they let us bring our dogs inside the bar so we didn't have to suffer getting attacked by flies on the patio while eating. typical dive bar. i was shocked how good the pulled pork sandwich was.. fries were not bad either. also got the buffalo wings, pretty good! would stop by again if i ever pass through! read more

With limited food choices in Wall, we went with the best ratings. Upon arrival we asked the family leaving what they thought. They said get the pizza or tacos. Average food for average price. The waitstaff seemed unsure of their duties and tables to service. We ordered a plain pizza the size was generous. Tasted average and delivered within adequate time. read more

All I can say is wow!! They were busier then ever but totally managed to make the experience worth it. We got to sit in front of a live band and enjoyed some good home cooking with local ingredients. read more

We are staying in Wall and as many reviews say, there are limited options. The food here will not disappoint. We got the fish and chips 10/10, buffalo wrap 10/10, chicken dinner 9.5/10 (.5 off bc we wish there was a little more seasoning. It was our waitresses first day and she was an absolute delight. We would def eat here again! read more

Friendly and fun. Enjoyed our evening. We just had chicken Caesar salads and wings but the draft local beer was amazing!

We stopped here on a lengthy drive. I had a bacon omelet and it was stuffed with bacon! My husband had steak and eggs. The food was good, the service was good. Only thing I would say is it could have been a bit cleaner but the food tasted great. I would stop here every time for breakfast! read more

First of all. The service is fantastic. Everyone is super nice and attentive. Next. I asked for my egg on my breakfast sandwich to have the white cooked and the yellow runny. It was perfectly made! The coffee isn't the best I've ever had but i got my fix. All in all I would eat here again if I ever pass thru this town again. read more

Ordered water when we first arrived. The water was horrible. One of the waitresses said that the whole town has awful drinking water and it wasn't only Red Rock. It took more than an hour after asking about our order. I noticed that other people that had entered after us had received there food and had left. The waitress spoke poor English. We asked for a lemon wedge and she bought limes instead. DON'T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY!! read more

All the reviews are true and what it comes down to is how the reviewer looked at the situation at hand. Did they give it a real full fledged review or compare it to the options around the Wall, SD (which is far and few to say the least). Service: either they put something in the drinking water or this joint is run by teenagers. They were raised well as the service was pretty good. Salad bar: bagged salad and what was apparently corn and ranch dressing were amongst the options. Soup: potato and bacon. Kind of mushy. Main dish: - Today's Special: the Walleye (not a fun play on words where they exchanged "rib" for "wall". It's a kind of fish.) - Ribeye: decent. I envision myself eating this in a diner all across 'merica! I asked for medium rare and medium rare is what I got! Additional: casino attached? I looked inside and only found confused faces looking back. I found no casino and pretty much scared off. Overall: service was great, food could have been worse, but was very overpriced. read more

We arrived here driving west, on our way to Badlands National Park. Wall is home to Wall Drug, the tourist trap that even I couldn't deny a visit; it also, on this night, seemed a decent place to settle down for the night. This place was next door to our motel, and it looked great at first, as they advertised a "beer garden". No arm twisting needed there. Once we were in the door, we discovered the beer garden "just an outdoor seating section, I suppose" was closed. It was late July, so it wasn't because of the weather, but rather that they didn't have the staff to handle opening another section. As a server who's been in this situation, I grumblingly accepted and sat indoors. At least the beer will be good. Nope! Nothing but terrible domestic bottles, Busch and Keystone and the like, with maybe a few standard imports like Corona. I drank the one I'd never had before - "Premium Grain Belt Beer" - and it made me want to cry. The four of us perused the bare-bones menu, and settled on wings for an app. They were so disgusting, slimy and brimming with fat, we couldn't finish them despite our ravenous appetites. I ate a burger for dinner, the one redeeming factor in my visit. It was a good burger, but nowhere near enough to salvage this unpleasant experience. Our server gave us the same don't-care-one-bit vibe that she gave her other tables. Not rude, but fully aware that each of her guests would probably never return to town for any reason, let alone return to this sad excuse for an eating and drinking establishment. I'm not surprised one bit that I'm the first reviewer for this place. I would have forced it out of my memory too, had I not been in the midst of a photograph-filled cross-country road trip at the time. Believe me, folks, this was a low point. read more

This is the best restaurant in Wall, SD. It's off the beaten path east of Wall Drug. However, the inside dining looked crowded, they didn't have an organized reservation system, they offered a salad bar in the midst of a pandemic, and none of the servers wore masks. Please, Please, Please do not tell us your life story four feet away from us, we want to keep socially distance, even with outside dining. I asked for hot fries and they were lukewarm and my husband drink had a major chip in the glass. We went back the next day due to the lack of outdoor dining options and my husband had two chips in his glass. read more

The food was great! We got burgers and salad, both scrumptious. Loved the small town vibessss. Our waitress was delightful and sweet. (They also had lemonade, which is always a big plus) read more

Red Rock was pretty average with a few notable standouts. The broasted chicken was delicious. The baked potato was over baked, but nothing too terrible. The chicken fried steak was tough, but pretty good. The salad bar was a nice idea, but not well kept. The place is tired, but seems to do swift business. The wait staff was nice. If you're hungry, you'll find something. read more

We had our dog with us and It was listed as one of 2 dog friendly restaurants in this town. I walked into the bar area and the waitress was walking by. I asked her if we could get a table outside and she responded extremely nastily that there was only 2 servers for the restaurant and bar and they could not be running outside. I told her I had a dog and could not come inside. She mumbled something and walked away from me. Here's the thing, Wall has like 3 restaurants and it is very touristy because it's right outside the Badlands National Park and Wall Drug is a huge attraction. There are hundreds of people walking around that town. This restaurant had 2-3 occupied tables on a Friday afternoon and they were otherwise empty. I don't know if that is an indication of the food or the nastiness of the wait staff but we did not stay. I don't know how you are not doing everything you can to bring in business but I would not be surprised if they were closed down the next time we roll through. read more

Most staff became pleasant, but they were busy and some were just "done". We tried to lighten the mood and it seemed to work. As along as you didn't ask for anything. We ate our salad with a soup spoon from the salad bar without complaint, we weren't given utensils, so we improvised. My steak was cooked perfectly. My Navy sons Buffalo "steak" (turns out it was a very large ground patty), was over cooked. Salad bar had rotted lettuce and a spoiled "corn salad" mixture. The cucumbers had started to ferment, tasted like mold. They actually diluted the Tabasco sauce condiment on the table, that was unique. The soup was equivalent of campbells mushroom diluted with water and a micro amount of added celery and onion. I could go on, no need to. The bottled beer was good. Though when I asked for a glass and lime wedge for my Landshark, apparently annoyed the waitress, she brought it over and slammed it down so hard I had to catch it from falling over. I still gave her 20%, hopefully that would help lift her up, assuming she was just having a bad night. Traveling across entire country helping him move to next base, trying to treat him to nicer meals than he sees on the ship. Failed on this stop. read more

We were looking for a local restaurant in Wall to get back and watch the sunset in the badlands They were very busy but never missed a beat- very accommodating and friendly! Great service and we enjoyed our food ! read more

Great fast service but merely average or below food. It was a better option that eating at Wall drug for sure. read more

Not a lot of options in the Wall area, so we were not sure what to expect. But Red Rock does it right. Farm to table beef - everyone's was cooked perfectly. The service was great - so friendly and working so hard. Following social distancing and limited capacity rules; all waitresses wearing masks. Contactless pay using scan and app. Highly recommend! read more

The food was good after you FINALLY get it. We had ti wave down a waitress, they all kept walking past our table. Took forever to get our drinks, one person in our party got their drink after the appetizers arrived and after we asked for it again.. the appetizer order was wrong, we didn't get silverware and knapkns until after we got our food, we had to ask for those... steaks were overdone. We had to go to the cashier to ask fir the bill, the waitress never brought it. They were trying to charge us for food items that we didn't get and another item that we didn't order... read more

I have now found a restaurant with a meat bar. The place is a comfortable and has a lot of wood. The server was great and the prices were fine. One in our group thought the place was too bright. Here is a summary of the food: - Just Ok salad bar - no blue cheese dressing but the ranch was a good substitute. - Very good sirloin steak - Good country fried steak - Very good fish - Very good ribs - Good fried chicken - Fair roast beef - Very good mashed and gravy Overall the place was a good experience. read more

Worth the stop. Great service - one person serving thanks to COVID-19. Seat yourself. Every other seat closed. Server wears a mask and gloves. Omelet, breakfast sandwiches, and biscuits and gravy. Homemade biscuits. Thanks for being open! read more

Best friend pickles I've ever had! Highly recommend. We ordered three different burgers here and they were all delicious. The burgers are named after surrounding cities! Locally raise beef and pork. Outdoor seating is dog friendly. They also bring a dog bowl with water! :) read more

Absolutely spectacular. I ordered the steak tips with mashed potatoes and it was the best food I've had in our whole week in South Dakota. My husband got a burger and also loved it. Our waiter was also very friendly and so nice to our kids. read more

In wall South Dakota for one night and did carry out from red rock based on yelp reviews. I had the chicken fried steak, baked potato and a side salad. My wife had the chicken tenders baked potato and broccoli. First thing to mention is that the carry out order was completely correct i.e. everything was as we ordered. My chicken fried steak was quite good and I would give it a 7.5 or eight on a scale of 1 to 10, I thought my baked potato was excellent and the side salad was adequate and the blue cheese dressing was quite good. My wife said her chicken tenders we're also very tasty and her broccoli was very good. My wife pick the food up and said the hostess was very nice and accommodating. Bottom line we would order there again with no hesitation and may go back for breakfast . Also important to mention that they were practicing social distancing and all the employees were wearing masks which was important to us as we are in our 70s and prime candidates for getting the Covid virus. read more

Travelling cross country on a National Park road trip and the hotel recommended the Red Rock. Nothing fancy but home grown mom and pop that definitely delivered !... big portions and tasty home cooking. We came back twice having the Fried Chicken and Walleye, both were delicious but the Walleye was out of this world! Big portions and great value with the salad bar. Very nice waitress and clean establishment. Avoid the tourist trap restaurants across from Wall Drug... huge waste of time and money. The Red Rock is the spot! read more

Best service in Wall, SD! Food was decent, however I would not personally recommend the cheese nuggets (coming from a Wisconsinite who loves cheese curds). If you're in Wall, I would eat here or Subway tbh. read more

I am not sure who gave positive reviews but we just had a late lunch at this restaurant. Absolutely awful. Loud and obnoxious waitress complaining about the soup of the day because it was chicken noodle but the cook threw in beans. Then she complains that there was only a waitress per side of restaurant. She shouts across the room at new comers and people who she knows or had to wait. And I think she hates pizza being ordered because she told us repeatedly it's being discontinued and the only pizza left was Hawaiian. which should have told us it's frozen pizza. It was gross. Worse restaurant in a very long time. They must rope in the tourists and don't care because they probably won't return. BTW, husband tells me the men's room door is broken. There goes your privacy. read more

We loved this local restaurant during our stay in Wall. We sat outside with our puppy and had a great experience with our server, Karlie.

Went there on a recommendation. Wish I would have gone somewhere else. Waited an hour for mediocre food the worse waitress I have ever come in contact with. Best thing it wasn't too expensive for mediocre food and bad service would NOT recommend or ever return. read more

What a disgusting place. I entered the Lounge side which is dark and dingy. Bartender does not wear a mask. So I assumed I was in the wrong place and reentered through the restaurant side which was better. Surly waitress was going to seat me in the lounge side since I was eating alone. When I told her I wanted to eat on the restaurant side she replied , not ironically, "well I guess I have to seat you then." Although I thought WTF, I sat at table and after looking at the menu I walked out without ordering. There was not a single semi healthy thing on the menu, and it wasn't the yummy kind of not healthy but rather the yucky kind. This must be a very unhappy place to live when they think that behavior and that atmosphere is somehow acceptable. BTW I had eaten there a few years ago and it had been quite nice then. I would advise staying away. read more

My husband and I were traveling through the area with our dog and were looking for a dog friendly restaurant with outdoor seating. Red Rock Restaurant popped up on my Yelp app. We ate a late lunch on their patio. The Wasta burger and the Creighton burgers were delicious. The service was outstanding and a water bowl was filled as we sat down. We spoke to other servers there as well. Everyone was very friendly. We would definitely stop by Red Rock again. Thank you for a delicious lunch and great hospitality!! read more

Let me start off by saying I'm a pretty generous reviewer - just look at my history. However, I truly believe God himself has placed this restaurant on Earth as an eligibility course for heaven. If you can make it thru a full dining experience without losing your temper and walking out, you will be granted permission to enter. GOOD. LUCK. I know you're probably thinking "hmmm well, maybe we should just give it a try since there are mixed reviews". To that I say, why not just book a one-way ticket to hell? So we came here on our way back home from a 6 day road trip. It was one of the few dining options, and one that at least had a healthy option (broasted chicken?) aside from burgers, pizza, and fried foods. We walk in thru the bar, then find a door that leads you to the restaurant. Upon entering, a lady seats us with menus. We sit there for about ten minutes before we got the attention of a man who seemed to be the manger. He asked if we'd been helped, then said he'd call over our waiter. We waited another 10 minutes before we had to stop another lady to ask for service, to which she said she was off the clock but would grab somebody for us. Finally, a lady came to take our order. Mind you, this place was maybe 30% capacity (6 tables?) and had 3 waitresses. At no point during the rest of the meal did the manager check on us, despite walking by us a minimum of 15 times. Food: we ended up getting the dinner buffet that came with a salad bar. The salad bar didn't even have cucumbers or tomatoes or onion! What did it have, you ask? It was pretty indecipherable to be honest. Everything was horrible except the broasted chicken. Not flavored, but as a personal preference it was good because I just wanted chicken breast without added oil or sauces. Most wouldn't call it great. Also, they make it a point to water everything down. All the tabasco sauces clearly had water added to them, the mac n cheese was watery, even the mashed potatoes were so thin! Save your self the money, time, and, most importantly, frustration. read more

This is a complete fail, service was awful and food was so so and overpriced... I had a $8.00 burger the lettuce, tomato,and onion add 2 bucks and 1 buck more for cheese Really? Who does that! Not sure what the locals enjoy here Diary Queen has better rating and service..If your just passing through save your money try something else with free LTO sheesh read more

Large portions! Pepper jack cheese curds were amazing!! Staff was friendly, would come back!

Clean, friendly and yummy! Went there for breakfast with a large group (9) and had the best service our group has had in 2 days of eating in various tourist towns. read more
