Dempsey's Brewery and Pubs nails that authentic Irish atmosphere so well, you half-expect a…read moreleprechaun to pinch your pint while you're not looking. The warm wooden digs and lively vibe make it a proper escape in Watertown, SD, though the only drawback is the constant buzz of chatter drowning out what should be some good ol' Dropkick Murphys tunes. I was particularly impressed by the great pastrami on homemade rye--tender, tangy meat stacked high on fresh-baked bread that could make even a New Yorker do a happy jig. Their bartenders are absolute gems, slinging drinks and banter with the charm of seasoned storytellers who somehow remember your name after one visit. One quirky touch is how the floors creak underfoot, like they're gossiping about all the pints spilled before you. Strangely enough, the soup of the day was tequila, a boozy curveball that had the whole place toasting with confused delight and empty bowls. The house brews hold their own, pairing like old friends with the hearty grub. All in all, Dempsey's is a witty, wonderful Watertown, SD gem.

Upon sitting down we were greeted within 2 minutes by our server,Darcy, who was quite helpful with some tips on a few questions we had. We placed our order of the Brisket melt sandwich & the Western Omelet. Our meal arrived in a very short time, 8 - 10 minutes & everything was very, very good with fair prices ( 2 meals & 2 beverages for $27.21 ) We absolutely will come back to The Grainery next time we find ourselves in Watertown.

I would normally give this 3 stars anywhere else, but relative to other restaurants here in…read moreWatertown, I bumped it up an additional star. There's plenty of parking on the street or the parking lot adjoining. Approach is open and the door is obvious. Ambiance inside is interesting; open area, semi-dimly litt with the bar to left and more table and booth seating to the right and there's a step down separate room for private events, further underpins the steak joint atmosphere. The menu options covers land, sea and air and my paaps and I landed on air and myself went with turf. The meat dish the filet oscar was perfectly cooked to medium rare with lobster, shrimp, asparagus topped off with hollandaise sauce. The chicken breast was the same quality and the dad added a side of wild rice. Wine menu is descent for the area and I ended up with a pinot that was a nice accompaniment to the steak. I've been coming to this town for quite some time and didn't know about this place, so will add it to my go to place and would recommend to anyone looking for a descent, quiet restaurant here in Watertown.

Can't wait to continue with the future of The Shelterbelt Bar & Grill.

Went for a drive on a Saturday morning and ended up at Lakeview restaurant for breakfast. We…read moreordered typical northern-midwest breakfast including eggs, sausage, pancake, hashbrowns and toast. It took a little longer than expected to get our food but the over-easy eggs were fine and the pancake was excellent. The toast was toward the burnt side which happens to be how we like it, although not ordered that way. The hashbrowns appeared to originate from frozen, not fresh but that is typical for the area. The restaurant is connected to a convenience store that operates a doorbell each time the door is opened. If you can put up with frequent 'ding-dong' during your meal it won't bother you. The bathrooms are quite small, one-person only, which is odd because the restaurant also contains a bar. Prices were a little high for a typcial breakfast diner but Lakeview is in a tourist-oriented area so they charge a little more. The wait staff was friendly and appeared to check back with customers frequently. I would go there again.
