This visit it was not. Nit even sure it was a filet.

There really isn't a venue in the area with the cozy, intimate atmosphere that serves true craft cocktails and a creative menu of small bites and desserts, so The Revelry is a much-needed addition to Okoboji and Spirit Lake. Jason and Kim put their heart and souls into this business and it shows. Aside from the joy I get in supporting local, it's such a fun experience. Great for a date night, bachelorette stop, girls evening out, after-dinner nightcap, pre-dinner appetizers/drinks, and so much more.

The potato and shrimp were overly cooked. I bit the potato and it was no good, way to soft like puree kinda I couldn't eat it plus didn't taste good . The shrimp looked like the Walmart shrimp same for the sausage small and overly cooked( sorry I always have seafood boils and never gotten small shrimp or sausage like I did here maybe it's just me but looked like the Walmart shrimp ) . Crab legs was good though . Also the girls were never rude but they need to be more welcoming barely smiling kinda serious all the time we didn't feel welcomed to be honest and didn't check up on us really and it was not busy that day , I understand when it's busy it's kinda hard but yeah definitely not busy when I went . The inside of the restaurant was really nice though I liked the vibes . But yeah not going again .

Bergen Bar & Grill is hands down one of the best hole-in-the-wall restaurants I've ever been to!…read more Food: Do yourself a favor and order the filet mignon and wild rice -- and don't forget the side of 3 jumbo shrimp! My family has been coming here for years and we all order the same thing every time we come, and it's always phenomenal! The beef is SOOO tender, it literally melts in your mouth. And don't get me started on the wild rice. It's cooked to perfection and it's so buttery and flavorful. Atmosphere: Bergen Bar & Grill is a smaller restaurant that's first come first serve -- no reservations. You put your name and phone number on a notebook and they call you when your table is ready. Depending on the time you arrive, it can be a longer wait. However, they have a lovely patio where you can wait for your table OR you can hang out in your car. They do serve drinks on the patio which is a nice touch! One other thing to note, they are cash/check only. No credit cards so plan accordingly. Overall, I highly highly recommend Bergen Bar & Grill! You won't be disappointed.

At the Carpenter Bar, the lights are low, there is minimal seating, and it's easy to just slow down, sip on your drink, and enjoy your evening. If you're looking for a Busch light or a vodka Red Bull, this probably isn't your scene, but if you appreciate the finer things and attention to detail with your spirits, definitely try to get a table or a seat at the bar here. I will definitely go back. This Three-Quarter Nelson cocktail is essentially a whiskey sour with a little amaretto softening the spirit and adding such a delicious nutty element to the drink.

I mean, the legit standards done very well, home versions of standards, some great concoctions of their own, the BEST design for your own atmosphere wants too. Booth? They have that. Cool bar? Yep. Hightop to people watch from? Got it. Corner stage area? Sure. Separate intimate room with cool tiki decor? That too. So, you can have cool tiki place (seen a few of them), you can have an on point cocktail game (tasted a few of them), and you might have good service (experienced that too). But all three in one place? Rare. All three as perfect as you can get? Super rare. I would have said only in CA, but, Sioux Falls has it in The Hello Hi. 100%, the best around.

By the second pull, beverage was gone. Way overpriced for what you get which in essence is a tall glass of ice with a splash of booze. Sad.

A coworker selected this place for lunch, and honestly, if I'd read the older reviews, I would have suggested we skip it. First visit, I ordered the buffalo chicken wrap. The sauce has this little sweetness along with the usual spicy tang, and I was absolutely loved it. It was good enough that on day three I found myself back in the same booth at lunchtime. Round two, I went with the Reuben. I'm a Reuben person--I order them a lot, and I know when one is just pretending. This one wasn't and I could not have been more pleased. On my last night in town, I came back yet again and tried the taco salad. Because the word salad makes me nervous and I'm mostly a proud "meatatarian," I asked for extra ground beef. They did not hold back. It was a few extra bucks, but worth every penny. Coming from San Diego, the prices here just make me smile. The vibe is exactly what you'd expect from a sports bar in the best way: a good-sized central bar, booths and tables all around, plenty of screens, and zero pretense. Every staff member I dealt with was friendly, on the ball, and made the repeat visits an easy choice. Bottom line: this place is exactly what it says it is--a solid sports grill and bar. If you want cheap and instant, go to a drive thru. If you're in the mood for a martini, wine and a slab of beef, go find the prime rib place in town. If you just want good food, fair prices, and a relaxed sports bar atmosphere, you'll be very happy here. I had several great experiences and I'll be back the next time work sends me to Spencer.
