    This place is located just off the I90 freeway at highway 11 in Brandon. I used to live north of this restaurant and went there all the time. They were always consistent with food and service. Last night I went there again for the first time in ten years and had a great experience. This is a full bar but also a full dining experience. It is great for families or heading out with friends for drinks. They have a full menu that includes burger, pasta, salads, burritos and more. It is pretty easy to find something you like here. I ordered the Buffalo chicken penne which was like a mix between hot wings and Italian. It was pretty good and nice to have something different. This is an established well run restaurant. One of the best options in Brandon for sure.

    The taco trio. Brisket burnt ends.

    Technically, it is food. Service was fast. Fast drink service. Fast food to table. The beef tacos were stone cold. The brisket burn ends were tough and chewy. The Texas toast that came with was charred. Sticky table top and not a single person wearing a mask (except for us) Resist the urge to eat here.

    A little something for everyone on the menu. Sports bar atmosphere with family dining. Food was decent. Nothing spectacular, but solid.

    1 lb of bone in wings equals 6 wings, they are good but 6 wings don't equal a pound. Service was really good for being busy

    We had a wonderful experience dining here. Our waitress was so pleasant and she did a great job…read moreserving us. They have an excellent menu to choose from. The jambalaya is by far the best in town. Great drink selection as well. We love the atmosphere and will recommend Grille 26 to our friends. My wife had the quesadilla meal and said it was very good too. We also split a Caesar side salad. Great flavor!

    I made a reservation online a little over three hours before we wanted to dine. My requests were 4…read moreadults and 1 high chair and preferably somewhere quiet as we had elderly guests who can't hear well. We arrived for our reservation and were seated at a table that wouldn't allow a high chair by restaurant rules. We were moved to a much smaller table that couldn't accommodate the 5 of us. The table was also located directly under a very loud speaker and a television. When asked if this table was ok, we stated our concerns that the table was very small and that our family couldn't hear each other due to the speaker. The hostess said it was all they could do. We decided to give it a chance as it was our first time here. My husband ordered the pulled pork sandwich and I ordered the chicken honey almond penne. Husband says the pulled pork itself was good but the onion rings inside the sandwich were stale making the sandwich feel past expiration. My penne was completely over cooked to the point where the chicken was more of a jerky consistency and the pasta was disintegrating if you tried to use your fork to collect it. Our other guests enjoyed the steak stating it was ok. From the start with our requests for accommodation being ignored to finish with possibly the worst dishes I've ever overpaid for, this experience was one I never would wish on anybody.

    Cool atmosphere, our food experience was great-steaks were cooked as we like, clean environment…read moretoo! A note on the old fashions: they are "lazy" old fashions (unmuddled-it's not an old fashion if nothings muddled-it's whiskey on the rocks with fruit at that point) in their defense they're $10-$15 old fashions depending on which one you get so gotta turn em out quick...the manager personally muddled mine for me when he asked how our experience was! The Attention was appreciated!

    March 2026 Sioux…read moreFalls, South Dakota This place has a beautiful ambience. You enter and there is a warm and welcoming fireplace to the right when you enter. Straight ahead by a large open bar, you can see the meat on the rotisserie. Restaurant is large and cozy. Dark woods, modern lighting, many booths with ample seating. Floors are concrete and many nature pictures line the walls. This place has everything from handheld sandwiches to salmon and rotisserie chicken, a broad selection of appetizers and soups and salad salads. I ordered a Guinness draft and it came in a very large glass. Many tap beers to choose from. We ordered the woodfired chicken wings, a rotisserie chicken, which is accompanied with mashed potatoes and cornbread, and my husband also ordered a cup of corn chowder. The chicken wings I thought were delicious. The flavor is smoky and pepper. Not your traditional wing, but it includes the drumstick and the wing. You get six in total. It comes with blue cheese and ranch. My husband did not care for the wings. He thought they had too much of a pepper taste. My only concern was they were not served hot. They were barely warm when they got to my table. The blue cheese dressing was basically ranch dressing with a few dry blue cheese crumbles mixed in. Not a good flavor. The corn chowder was very mushy. It had the texture of baby food. He did not enjoy it. It also was served warm and not hot. Rotisserie chicken comes out with a thigh and drumstick of dark meat and white meat. However, the chicken is very dry. Taste like rotisserie chicken should taste But nothing special. The mashed potatoes are not creamy. But clumpy. They are red skin and I love when the skin is left on the potatoes. However, they taste like a baked Redskin potato with no salt, pepper, or butter. Flavorless. The cornbread has good flavor. But again, try. There is no butter to accompany it. Might taste good with some honey or butter on the side. I love the look and coziness of the restaurant. I wanted it to be fantastic. I was extremely disappointed in the food. I tried to make it work, but with the cold food and the lack of flavor, it was a big miss. When you take a bite of rotisserie chicken, and then you need to take a drink before taking your next bite of food, you know it is dry. When in Rome do as the Romans do. When in Sioux Falls Falls do not ROAM to this restaurant. I would not come back to this restaurant. I would give it 2 stars for the food. However, Darla was our waitress and she was very kind and attentive. She gets a five star rating. But the good service does not balance out the awful food.
