Stumbled on to this gem of Custer nearly two years ago when moving from Michigan to Arizona. I…read morewanted to see the Black Hills and do all the things so I included Custer on my itinerary. Absolutely loved Skogen! We are on a road trip back to Michigan with a weekend stop in Deadwood and decided to add a stop in Custer this time around as well and, gratefully and thankfully, we were able to secure a reservation. Again, Skogen was AMAZING! We sat in the outside patio area which was cozy and comfortable. Because I have acclimated to 115 degrees in Arizona summers, the 79 degree temperature was a bit chilly so I grabbed a super warm blanket that was supplied and they offered to turn on the heaters. I know it sounds ridiculous to most people who travel to South Dakota. Honestly, Arizona ruins you for everywhere hahahhah. Anyway, I thought it was super kind for them to make me comfortable! It was greatly appreciated! Service: Our server, Curtis, was fantastic! He catered to our every whim! He was personable and friendly and we had a very nice conversation. He helped me decide the best entree between two of my choices and it sure didn't disappoint! Excellent service! Food: The hubby and I shared the lobster steam buns were phenomenal. I mean, if you're reading this and you're going to Skogen, don't hesitate. Just order them. I wasn't a fan of Hollandaise prior to trying theirs, so I asked for it on the side. I literally could have licked the Hollandaise sauce. It was light, airy and absolutely scrumptious! The lobster was delicious and delicate and perfect! We both said we could have eaten the entire four buns by ourselves--and not shared! They were incredible! I had the halibut with asparagus and fingerling potatoes. It was absolutely delicious! The hubby had the duck confit. The white bean preparation with the smoked bacon was amazing but the duck---what magic have you created? It was tender with crispy skin and so moist! Dessert was shared and consisted of the chocolate cheesecake with pistachio ice cream. Unbelievable! So delicious! We had the honor of meeting the owner, Joseph, and shared a wonderful conversation with him. We loved his passion and enthusiasm for his craft, his love of people and we never felt like he was rushing to get back to doing what he needed to do. We truly felt like we were guests at his own home dinner table, sharing stories. It was really a lovely experience from start to finish. We just loved Skogen and look forward to coming back any and every time we manage to swing back into this wonderful town. We have really fallen in love with Custer!

Ended up grabbing a bite here while visiting Custer State Park this past summer. Ate outdoors with…read morea few of the lake and surrounding terrain. With the sun going down, it was a almost picturesque. This eatery is attached to a shop selling souvenirs, snacks and drinks. Appears to share the same parking lot so that wasn't an issue. Free to boot and no restrictions that I could see. But I didn't look. After shopping and eating, it was back on the road to go look for some wildlife. Service was ok. I say ok as there was a mistake with an order which was offered to another table. The dish wasn't touched but I guess standards are different because in restaurants I've eaten in and work at (in another life), a mistake would be discarded. Who knows what could have been done to the dish - not that I did anything. Just left a sour taste because after the dish was offered to another table, server seemed to go MIA. Almost felt like it was avoidance after the error. So, condiments, refills and service in general took long enough that at one point my friend and I had to go in to ask for things. As for the food - it was ok. It's definitely prepared differently than what I'm used to. So, I have to admit, feeling the food was ok could have been due to this and possibly because the service had went downhill after the error. Would I go back? For the view

She was incredibly sweet but other people kept coming by to offer any help we may have needed which we did not need anything. We had a made to order pizza and a buffalo burger which was so juicy and perfectly cooked. The fries were not overly salty and were perfect in my opinion. The restaurant was clean and odor free. Prices are comparable to the area. Bonus-organic store is attached to the restaurant so you can get some shopping done too. Although I did find the organic food prices of the grocery store to be a little costly.

Despite the unexpected change, the pizza options were surprisingly delicious. It's a self-service setup. If you're open to trying pizza instead of a burger, I would recommend giving it a try.

This place was amazing! I got the brisket and ribs and they were perfect. 10/10 recommend.read more

Everything we ate was delicious, but to me the standout were the ribs. We did have to be a bit patient in getting our food since it's just the 2 owners doing all the work of serving, but it was well worth the extra minutes wait. If I could make one suggestion to the owners (and I say this with love) - more side dishes that are not mayonnaise-based would help diversify your menu just a bit. I wish we lived closer bc we'd eat here all the time and I didn't even get to try the stuffed jalapeños yet!

Salad was good too - not your basic salad, came with blueberries and walnuts. Couldn't find pictures of the charcuterie board beyond their website which I think is a generic image from online. Asked how filling it would be and they said 2 people could share it just fine. It was okay but had I seen it before ordering I wouldn't have ordered - I did not think it was worth anywhere close to $28. It came with 6 total crackers. The amount of cheese on the board was good. Served with mini pretzels and the same blueberries and walnuts on their salad. No olives as stated in the menu. Meat was underneath everything and hard to get to.
