If you're visiting Mount Rushmore and looking for a place to eat before or after your visit, I…read morecan't say enough about the Powder House restaurant. It is a must stop. Service was really good from the time I called to be added to the waitlist to our hostess all the way to our server. The food came out at a reasonable time. Ordered: -Kids spaghetti -Kids cheeseburger and fries -Ribeye- a little chewier but still a great cut. -Prime rib made perfectly very flavorful I was super surprise and highly recommend prime rib if you are a prime rib fan. It comes with two sides which I got to pay extra and ordered the garlic fries. Overall, I highly recommend stopping by here to dine. I have no complaints whatsoever. It was actually the best meal I have had during my visit to this state. When my sister in law recommended this spot, I did not think that I would have enjoyed it as much as I did. Just because there is not much food options in the area and I didn't think that this spot could produce really good food since I am from California and am a foodie. And well Powder House is kinda in the middle of no where. Well, 2 thumbs up from this Yelper. Add this spot to your bookmark and make sure you go! Tips: -Call ahead to be added to their waitlist. -Indoor seating only -Alcohol served here -They have a kids menu -They have their own private parking lot -Credit card accepted -They do charge for splitting plate of eight dollars. -Restroom available. -Very laidback casual atmosphere.

Restaurant on site at the motel. Small cabins close to Mount Rushmore. We got both dinner and…read morebreakfast while staying there. The mashed potatoes were so good! The country fried steak is one of the best ones my husband's said he's had. Our waitress for dinner could have been better with checking on us. Breakfast came fast but our waitress was good.

Be wary of the service here. Our server, a blonde, middle age woman, was noticeably cold to my wife…read moreand I when comparing how she treated us compared to other tables. Frequently coming back to other tables to check if anything was needed, striking up conversation, mentioning the specials of the day (which i would've gotten if i had been offered them and hadn't heard after already ordering). We got none of that. As for the food, it's okay. Nothing to write home about for $50 dollars between a drink, an appetizer, and two mid size entrees. I'm assuming the issue is that my partner and I are both in our mid 20s and have the stereotype of not tipping, which is understandable. This dining experience we definitely did hold up the stereotype based on the complete lack of decent service. If you're anywhere below mid 30s, I'd take your money elsewhere. There's a Pizza Hut a block away that's tasty, friendly, and 1/5 of the price.

Very relaxed atmosphere with tables and benches, probably built by their children (the small log cabin was built by their kids!). They're open for breakfast and lunch 8am-2pm (closed Tues & Wed). One of my 'go-to's' is their breakfast of 2 eggs (their's ... organic free range), thick slabs of bacon (their's ... home grown & smoked) with hashbrowns (their pototoes) and a huge side of AMAZING apple sauce (their's of course) ... and to top it all off their sour dough bread that is so very special (also sold at the local health food store, along with their fresh herbs and many of their other canned good products). Have Renee list all your options of jam & jellies to spread on your slice of heaven sour dough, mostly unusual ... such as crabapple and rhubarb. Speaking of canned good products ... I just experienced a small taste of their zucchini relish and pickles alongside my sandwich. I couldn't believe it ... and what a gift to be able to purchase their products that elevate a meal with big flavor (canned goods, sweets, spices, jams & jellies, fresh herbs, organic free range eggs ... oh and they have ice, not theirs ... lol). I just don't know how to stop raving about their food, I'm just so thankful to have found them, and I think you will too or I wouldn't be writing this review. Enjoy, and be sure to write a nice review ... we want these people to prosper for all their hard work and commitment to healthy food for us.

While it can be a little slow, especially if there's a line of people, the staff ensures everything is cooked to perfection and care is taken with top quality fresh ingredients (reflected in the taste!). I know people have complained about it being an 18+ age requirement due to the spa, and I can tell you as someone that's interrupted many times by screaming children whose parents are anything BUT attentive, interrupting an otherwise glorious meal, I'm GRATEFUL for this rule! I agree with other reviewers that it should be disclosed on their website, but people need to realize this is INSIDE a "Quiet voices required" spa environment (a simple Google search will reveal this fact) and children are typically anything but quiet... They're KIDS, and I honestly don't know why anyone would bring kids here anyway since the food is quite pricey (worth it!) and they have no children's menu. Overall this has become one of my favorite local restaurant and I aim to eat here a few more times before we leave the area for our next destination.
