Here's a warm, honest review that acknowledges the atmosphere without letting it overshadow the experience: The restaurant itself doesn't have much visual appeal or a particularly memorable atmosphere, but honestly, the food and service made up for it. Our food came out fast, the staff was attentive and genuinely nice, and everything we ordered was great. I had the bacon and eggs with sourdough toast and hash browns, and it was perfect. Everything was cooked just right, the sourdough was delicious, and the hash browns were exactly what I wanted. Sometimes you don't need a fancy atmosphere when the food is good and the service is even better. I'd definitely come back! read more

Breakfast at Uncle Louie's!! Food was good. Had omelette with hash browns and toast. Service was good. And the restaurant was busy but service by Siri was excellent. I recommend it! Enjoy!! read more

Service is very slow, but I guess the staff must be pretty overwhelmed during the Sturgis rally time. The food is good though, and I enjoyed the corned beef hash. The choice of a side of pancake instead of toast is not really worth it. It's only one very small pancake, so you're better off taking the toast. The fried seafood dish was heavily battered, and my dining partner left a good portion of his meal. Probably not the best choice on the menu. But breakfast was good and the salad bar seems to be a popular choice. On another visit, my friend got a burger and it was huge. He said it was good. I again got eggs, this time with hashbrowns and an English muffin. It's hard to mess that up. It's not quite as good as that at First Gold, as hard to beat those hashbrowns, but this was also good. read more

Service was excellent, the server worked hard to please us. My date said his pancakes were small and good but not delicious. I ordered eggs Benedict which is my favorite breakfast to order and I don't often see it on the menu. The first order, the eggs were solid and the server saw it and took it away. The second was so runny that the white of the egg was running over the ham. The third try was a charm. It still wasn't great. They used luncheon sliced ham instead of Canadian bacon. I really feel they should take it off the menu. If it's too difficult to make and the restaurant is a hot spot, you'll get more customers with the food you make well. For example, the French toast was delicious! read more

If you want a burger for breakfast come here! Breakfast served all day. Best breakfast in Sturgis. Food is hearty and a meal is enough for 2 people. The burger was huge, bigger than the bun. The burger was juicy, cooked perfectly with crisp bacon. Husband had chicken friend steak covered in sausage gravy. It came with eggs and hashbrowns. It was a tender steak and the sausage gravy was thick and flavorful. Service was friendly, coffee was refilled frequently and food came out quickly. This place is nostalgic as it doesn't look like much has changed since the 70's. Total diner vibe. We really enjoyed breakfast here. Great food! read more

We spent a week visiting our daughter in Sturgis in late October 2022. We visited this diner 4 times for breakfast. Every visit was awesome. I had the 2 eggs, 2 bacon and hash browns with an English muffin. The eggs were cooked to perfection! The staff was very professional. Restroom was clean. Variety on the menu. Wish they could open a diner here in my Arizona comm read more

So Sturgis on Main Street can be total chaos, but as soon as we stepped through the threshold of Uncle Louis's Diner the whole world calmed down. Our server was absolutely adorable, the food is really good diner food, which no complaints there and a respite from the crowds was definitely welcome! It's a great little place and I hope it's open for another 30 years so we never have to be denied Uncle Lewis's Diner when we come to Sturgis read more

BEST EVER! We love this place! Great Staff, Great Food, Coffee is top notch!!! We eat here every year during rally season. If we lived closer we'd be here every week. read more

You ride a bike? You can crush a juicy burger or a chicken-fried steak. This local favorite asks how committed and just how hungry are you? For $25-ish you can get your photo on the wall, along with the ~20 others who failed to devour a 6lb massive burger with onion rings, a sourdough bun bread bowl, and fries for days... but you only have 30 mins. NO ONE has ever finished the burger. So, good luck! It's a tasty, hole-in-the-wall diner. Highly recommended by locals, and this out-of-towner too! Get your grub on!! read more

Best mushroom swiss burger I ever had! Melt in your mouth delicious. Highly recommend

Saturday afternoon in May, so months before the bike rally and not much is open (although more than I expected). We stopped here for a late breakfast after a nearby hike and the service was great, and the best part. Although we were seated way in the back in the dark part practically by ourselves, our server was warm and friendly. The prices are good, and I hear they are the same during the rally when others raise their prices. It the food left something to be desired. Not home cooked, we ordered chicken and waffles and the waffle was not made I. House, but the small, sweetened kind they sell at the food warehouses. The chicken was a chicken patty, it a real piece of chicken or even tenders. The hash browns tasted out of a bag from the freezer section. The eggs were real, but greasy. The coffee was decent and the best part of the meal. If we came back (given the choices), we'll try pancakes next time. Those are hopefully made in house. read more

I'm at the Sturgis Rally a little early and needed to get breakfast. Saw Uncle Louie's Diner on Main Street and decided to give it a try. They were running a special on Steak Tips, eggs, potatoes, and toast. I gave it a shot, and it was delicious . I will be going back again. Restaurant was clean, service was friendly and professional, food was delicious and portions were big to fill me up, price was reasonable. Very good experience read more

I had a great breakfast here. The hours are limited, so be sure to check before going. Very friendly service. Old-fashioned diner appeal.

We liked it. No issues here. A real old school diner kind of atmosphere. Had to thaw the chicken at lunch. Server was good and food tasty. See us on YouTube at Coolest Life. read more

We happened on to Uncle Louie's walking down Main Street at Sturgis 2025. I am sure we passed it many times as we have gone to Sturgis the last three years. I have nothing but good to say about Uncle Louie's service, food and their food prices. I will hit Uncle Louie's up a few times at Sturgis 2026. read more

Food was great, service was swift (even during the rally), ambience was pleasant. You have to early though, it gets packed and people have to wait outside in a long line, if not early enough. Before 8-ish? read more

I go head for the food, its like my home cooked meals. I've been stopping here for a meal for years. It,s located on main street sturgis.

What a wonderful surprise Staff was so very courteous and kind Breakfast was most wonderful, especially biscuits and sausage gravy Best of all, coffee was delicious Highly recommend read more

We were visiting the area with our motorcycle club and Uncle Louies treated us great. We ended up having breakfast here two days in a row. They put us in the back room so that we could all sit together. The service was superb. Great food, good portions and fair prices. read more

Yummy and huge portions. Great diner food. Home cooked! Be sure to check the hours as they are not open every day in the evening. Service is prompt but not overbearing. Ambience is coffeehouse style. Not sure if they are open during Sturgis rally week. We often go in the shoulder season as we are vocals from Rapid City just for breakfast or lunch - it's that good! I believe they now have one in Spearfish as well, but have not visited that one. Need to! I believe Sturgis is the first! read more

Great food, service, and value. Best, most satisfying meal on our trip. Salad bar with soup was awesome to add to our meal. We had a breakfast meal but added salad bar.

We were supposed to eat here for breakfast, but ended up here after the Legends Ride. EAT HERE! We both ordered burgers and fries. Omg!!!!! They were amazing! We also shared a strawberry cheesecake which was also very good. Side notes: 1) A couple came in after us right before kitchen closed. This was their THIRD visit in recent days. 2) Although it was close to closing time, we were treated as if we were the 1st guests of the day. 3) The burger is so big that I had to turn the plate to capture the entire thing. read more

Excellent lunch at uncle Louie's. Waited half an hour during the rally and food took another 20 min. Everything was delicious. The tornado had the eggs bene and gout boy (me) had the crispy fried chicken sandwich with fries. Everything tasted wonderful. Easy to see why this place is rated so highly. read more

I'm referring to the new location in Rapid City located in the mall where Dickies use to be Food was nothing like the Sturgis location and the portions were not even half of what we're use to Food was not cooked how is should be either under cooked or over cooked and was told my hashbrowns were crispy pretty sure over cooked when couldn't even chew them was not worth 76$ for only 4 of us that doesn't not include drinks we only had water Service from our waitress was very poor felt as if she was trying to hurry us out the door read more

Uncle Louie's Diner was a great stop for breakfast! It was clean and the service was fantastic! Our waitress was very happy, attentive & sweet!

This place is a crap hole! I ordered the prime rib, medium rare, and it came back so burnt that it looked and tasted like a old piece of leather. It was so bad that I couldn't eat it. I can't believe the waitress had the nerve to serve it to me. The salad bar was all out of condiments . The only thing they had was lettuce and salad dressing. The manager had no hospitality at all. I had to negotiate a discount.! He only wanted to give me a 10% discount. I told him I wasn't going to pay for it. He then offered me a 50% discount so I just paid it and left. There's no way I will ever come back to this place ! read more
