    Red Snapper fried in butter and garlic.

    Again another amazing meal. The tower of seafood is a wonderful ceviche of shrimp, scallops, red onion, cucumber, and tilapia. Swimming in an amazing citrus and spicy sauce. The snapper was just amazing to have served with handmade corn tortillas. This is hands down the best Mexican seafood in the state of South Dakota.

    First off I wanna start this review by apologizing about not taking a picture after I put the food on the plate! I was so hungry I just dove right it! The food was amazing and so fun to eat because who doesn't like eating with their hands right? Anyways the service was great and we didn't have to wait an extraordinary amount of time which is always a plus. The drinks were a huge disappointment unfortunately! The presentation was beautiful but I couldn't tell if there was any alcohol in our drinks because for the margarita it tasted like candy and the michelada tasted like lime water with tajin. The location is decent but there isn't anything stunning about the inside of the restaurant but it is still nice. Overall I would rate this a 3.9 out of 5!

    It is a family owned business with the sweetest people. The food came out fast and had amazing flavor. Definitely a place I will revisit. Give these amazing people some love

    The result is a flaky, tasteful fish unlike anything else served in Sioux Falls.

We arrived at Swamp Daddy's and never have I ever seen so many gluten free menu choices! Never have I ever seen so many CAJUN gluten free menu choices in my life, the rue usually takes them off the list!! We were greeted with a smile and a welcome by a lovely young lady that was genuinely happy to see us! She offered us any open spot in the place! We chose the bar because the seats looked so comfy! They're a bit low but they're definitely comfy! We each got a nice cold beverage, they have beer, seltzer and wine and placed our order. We got the Cajun Fries for appetizer and they came out hot and fresh with all the crispy goodness we wanted. Would have liked some kind of Cajun aioli to go with them rather than the bottled ranch but the fries alone were good. We each got the Blackened Shrimp and it was divine! There were plenty of shrimp and the pile of jambalaya seemed endless!! The flavor was amazing and the sauce was to die for! I'll definitely be back before we head back out on the road, I'd like to try a little more of the menu, it was all solid choices!

Next the prices were completely outrageous for what you get and there were up charges that we were not informed about before hand. Then some of things I was up charged for they didn't end up giving us because they spilled something. No offer to give us a discount after I had already complained about the up charges. Last the food was ok but definitely not worth what I paid and again didn't even get a decent amount. Somethings had almost no flavor and others were so salty we couldn't eat them. I will not be going back there unfortunately.

We arrived for our reservation and were seated at a table that wouldn't allow a high chair by restaurant rules. We were moved to a much smaller table that couldn't accommodate the 5 of us. The table was also located directly under a very loud speaker and a television. When asked if this table was ok, we stated our concerns that the table was very small and that our family couldn't hear each other due to the speaker. The hostess said it was all they could do. We decided to give it a chance as it was our first time here. My husband ordered the pulled pork sandwich and I ordered the chicken honey almond penne. Husband says the pulled pork itself was good but the onion rings inside the sandwich were stale making the sandwich feel past expiration. My penne was completely over cooked to the point where the chicken was more of a jerky consistency and the pasta was disintegrating if you tried to use your fork to collect it. Our other guests enjoyed the steak stating it was ok. From the start with our requests for accommodation being ignored to finish with possibly the worst dishes I've ever overpaid for, this experience was one I never would wish on anybody.

    Wish I had found this place earlier in my trip so I could have come back again…read more Rachel was behind the bar and she was super busy when we first sat down. I'll be honest, I wasn't sure how the service was going to go. It was a little slow at first. But as the rush lightened up, she was awesome. Attentive, friendly, took great care of us. Sometimes you just have to be patient when a bartender is slammed, and Rachel proved it was worth the wait. The walleye was amazing. Fresh, perfectly cooked, exactly what you want when you're ordering fish. And the Moscow mules? Also amazing. Well made, refreshing, the kind of cocktail that keeps you ordering another round. This is the kind of spot you stumble into and immediately regret not finding sooner. Great food, great drinks, great service once things settled down. Real hidden gem! The Verdict: Kitchen 2210 delivered a five star experience. Rachel took care of us, the walleye was on point, and the Moscow mules were perfect. If you're in town, don't make my mistake. Find this place early in your trip so you can go back.

    Overall it's probably four stars, but the extra star is because Gili-b's is open 24/7…read more Probably everyone in Sioux Falls knows this spot as a place that's great for late night food after consuming horrifying amounts of alcohol, but did you know it's actually BETTER in the daytime? A rarity for late-night drunk food spots, Gili-b's is actually some super legit Mexican food. I've come here for lunch dozens of times when the food and kitchen is fresh, the customers are sober, and the employees aren't stressed by a bunch of drunken jerks asking for ridiculous orders and demanding their food be ready with the speed of Taco Bell. Since I'm gluten free, the street tacos are my go-to. Nothing better than meat in corn tortillas, topped off with onions and cilantro. What else do you need? Alright, their salsas and sauces are also excellent. My favorites are the chorizo, carnitas, carne asada, chicharron and lengua (unfortunately they are sometimes sold out of this one). Plus a tamarind Jarritos. Our last meal before moving from Sioux Falls was here (sober and in the daytime), and anytime I'm back in town I'm heading here IMMEDIATELY.

    Our orders are very rarely correct anymore. And if they are, they're disappointing. The steak is…read moreovercooked and chewy. The vegetable burrito contained lettuce, beans, spoonful of cheese, and pico de gallo. Not a single vegetable on it?! Ordered cheese enchiladas and got chicken. Do you not ask for pico de gallo, ranchero or enchilada sauce because all you'll get is their hot spicy salsa. My children do speak fluent Spanish so there should not be a language barrier. What once was the up-and-coming best takeout restaurant in Sioux Falls, which could be franchised, has turned into overpriced takeout. With competition being fierce amongst new authentic Mexican takeout, They need to both step up their game and get back to reasonable pricing.
