I am a 25 year old female and I came in to buy some alcohol and when I got up to the counter with my ID in hand I was told by a girl working the counter that she needed 4 forms of identification and then refused to sell to me! No big deal I guess I just went to a different store but the one thing that really upset me is the fact that I myself work a gas station and was appalled by the fact that the Casey's employees had the audacity to look me in the face and tell me that they are better than the exact gas station that I work for! I am aware there is a competition between different gas stations and I had been off work for a while and needed to run to an open gas station and this location was the closest to me but when you clearly see me in my uniform do not disrespect me to my face!

This is hands down my new favorite restaurant in Brookings. I wish I could remember the name of the dish I ordered, because it was easily one of the best meals I've had in a long time. Absolutely 10 out of 10. Everything about it just hit right. Flavor, presentation, portion size, all of it. The waitstaff was incredible. Super helpful, knowledgeable, and just genuinely great to deal with. You can tell they know the menu and actually care about the experience. For the record, I have zero connection to the owners or staff. Nobody asked me to write this. They just earned a genuinely glowing review. I'm already looking forward to coming back and bringing my wife here again soon.

Our reservation was at…read more5pm and boy am I glad we had reservations two hours before the concert because this place was not ready for the crowd they were about to receive. I did appreciate that we were seated right away (reservations took priority over walk ins) but it took about 10 minutes before we were handed waters and menus. It then took 30 minutes before we received our appetizer to which we were then told the rest of our food was done at the same time. Typically, I don't prefer to eat my appetizer at the same time as my entree, but in this case I worried with how slow of service we were receiving I wouldn't see my entree for another hour. Almost all of our food was amazing. I ordered a house salad and the Fillet of Beef with mashed potatoes. My boyfriend ordered the chicken and wild rice soup and the prime rib. He said the prime rib wasn't anything to write home about but it did the job. Overall, service was slow but everyone was super nice. I think they just need to hire a few more people which I know is difficult to do. I really hope this place can find the help they need because the food is so good and I want to see this place continue to succeed.

A motorcycle gathering had closed the street outside, so we felt very lucky to get a seat when we did. The tap list here is impressive. I was thrilled that they had so many ciders to choose from, including several from one of my favorite cideries, 2 Towns. My husband was happy to have one of his favorite imports, Kilkenny, which is hard to find in the US, and followed it up with a local beer from Fernson, Ears Up. We started off with a South Dakota specialty, Chislic. I asked our server if it was more authentic grilled or fried, and she said grilled. They were really good! My husband had the Bourbon Bacon Burger with garlic fries. He really enjoyed it. I snagged a fry and it was tasty, with bold garlic. I had the pork tacos. These were not small street tacos, but very filling full-size tacos. A bit messy, but our server left us plenty of napkins. When she came by to ask if we needed anything more, we asked for the check. She said it'd be right out, and asked if we'd like free mini cupcakes as a thank you. She commented they'd been short staffed. I must say, everyone in there was working hard (the boss came by to check with us several times) and we have no complaints, only compliments. We then shared two mini cupcakes, one vanilla and one red velvet. It was a sweet ending to a really great meal.
