    Pulled Pork Mac n' Cheese
    Jessie S.

    Our meal was fine. Our server was good. It was VERY busy, but we got in right away. I can't believe I'm complaining about this, but our food came out a little *too* fast. I felt kinda rushed. We started with the jalapeño wontons and cheese curds. Both were amazing and the sauce with the wontons was killer. Their ranch is a tad too garlicky. (And a bit thick.) I got the mac n' cheese with the pulled pork. It was just OK. I had to add a ton of salt and pepper and the pork was very fatty. I ate about 2/3 of it before I ran out of parts I liked enough to eat. My husband got a chicken sandwich something, but he was underwhelmed with his, too. (He doesn't even remember the name of the dish. Haha) His sweet potato fries were AMAZING. I also really like the honey mustard my sister-in-law let me try. I didn't use the bathrooms, but my husband did. He said they were fine. There's a nice looking patio area I'd like to try someday. It was of course closed for the season. (We went in December of '23.) Very loud in there, but like I said earlier it was LOUD. Plenty of parking. I'll go back if my sibling and his wife ask us to like they asked us this time. Might not go on our own. It was also a little pricy, FYI.

    An 18 dollar burger that supposedly weighs 7 ounces, close to a half pound but it's thinner than a McDonald's burger.

    Please listen to the poor reviews. Nice place, waitress was nice but very inattentive, I ordered a burger and fries for 18 dollars which is an absurd price point for this kind of place, but most every entree is in that 16-18 dollar range so I figured what the hell, at least it must be awesome for that kind of price. I was so wrong, the burger came out and was extremely overcooked, crispy the whole way through, I couldn't believe they sent it out like that, it was accompanied with a meager portion of soggy fries. I have never felt more ripped off at a Sioux Falls restaurant than I did at Barrel House, do something about your ridiculous prices and your terrible food quality, or at least do something about one of those things. Until then I won't be back, I suggest you make the same choice.

    Chislic medium rare so good

    Service was great. Food especially the prime rib bites are amazing. Tuesday features trivia and it was fun to watch. Highly recommend!

    My view!

    My server Morgan was amazing, accommodating and friendly!!!!! It was a fun time! I would highly recommend!!

    Spinach and artichoke dip
    Delaney M.

    We came hungry and definitely ate our way through the menu! My bf had the tequila old fashioned and I had a tequila Moscow mule which we both enjoyed. The spinach and artichoke dip was good but also tasted like any other restaurant. I had the breakfast burger which I thought was pretty good and really filling. The portion is big and everything tasted fresh! For dessert, we had the caramel apple skillet. I can't remember the exact name but it was warm apple goodness baked in a mini skillet and served with a generous scoop of vanilla ice cream! We enjoyed ourselves.

    If you love allocated bourbon then this is the place you want to come!! We came for their list of hard to find allocations and stayed for the food. The food is delicious and they offer a wide range of options for anyone to enjoy. The service was top notch cannot say enough about our waitress Jenna, she was very well versed in the menu and while she's still learning about bourbons she had no problem asking the bartender about items. The ambiance is nice and comfortable. Which is a must. We will be back!!

    Terrible service, and not to mention the food quality. The food wasn't cook properly and it looked like they use old ingredients.

    My daughter, Crissy, and I "loved" spending an evening at Dakota Brick House during our quick trip…read morethrough Vermillion, South Dakota. The weather was perfect, so we sat outside, enjoyed drinks and appetizers, and met the friendliest people, including our waiter. Sadly, I did not ask him his name, as he was amazing and he deserves a raise. We were there on Saturday, August 10 in the early evening. Everyone who checked on us during the evening exceeded all our goals. On our next visit to Vermillion, I will include the Dakota Brick House just because of the staff and the guests. We ordered a margherita pizza, with hunks of mozzarella cheese, diced tomatoes, chiffonade basil, and house-made pizza sauce to share. Not only was it delicious, it was just the right size for two women to share comfortably. Crissy was in charge of selecting the restaurant, and we both enjoy pub atmosphere. She was drawn to the patio so we only walked through the indoors but I really liked what I saw.

    We thought we would give this place a go. We ordered the…read morepoutine fries, but it lacked enough gravy to finish them. I had the Clucker ( chicken sandwich ) the bacon was very hard and the chicken very dry. She had the brick house burger and substituted the beef patty for a black bean one. She seemed to like it ok. The atmosphere was very pleasant, and we sat outdoors because it was a nice night. Our service was a little lack luster. Our server was very quiet and not very engaging. But she got the job done. It was a Friday night and not that busy. The people around us seemed to be having a good time and enjoying their meals. All in all , a decent place, but I don't think we will be back.

Went on Friday night, 11/3/18, and an acoustic duo (guitar guy, vocalist girl) were performing. Now, supporting local talent is cool and both of them had a reasonable singing voice but EACH AND EVERY SONG sounded the same. A shrilly, high pitched, vocal rendition of modern tunes that after awhile, grated on your nerves. It really ruined the evening there and I was begging and praying for them to go on break for 45 minutes. I probably will go back and try it once more but I hope mgmt really takes a good hard look at who they hire as 'entertainment'.

Hubs and I needed some "we" time during our family vacation this year, and stumbled upon the Paramount for some pre-dinner drinks. Big time loved the classed-up interior, waaay comfortable seating, and fireplace. The bartender was great: attentive and capable of making a good, strong martini. Bliss! All patrons seemed satisfied, and 'twas a quiet crowd during happy hour--which suited us perfectly. Can't speak to the food, but this place definitely specializes in clear liquids. I'd recommend planning out your grub situation and leaving a clean slate for Paramount to do what it does best.
