“This is NOT a 💯 % recommendation for The Wooden Nickel. We first visited this establishment just over two years ago. We frequented it almost weekly for the better part of 1.5 years. It was good…the food is good & at the time the service was good. However lately…in 2024 it has been sub par. This year during Crooks days we stopped in…it took 15 minutes FOR ANYONE to walk up to our table and even hand us menus…and when she did she was on the phone talking to someone. We waited another 10-15 minutes and nobody came back to our table. In fact a table close to us came in after us. They got a drink order and a food order in. There were 2 people here during CROOKS DAYS and the car show! By this point we were fed up with waiting. I went to the bar and told the bartender what was up. His response was “I just got here.” Subpar service to say the least. Prior to this fiasco a week earlier I had reserved seating for up to 15 people for a surprise bday party for my wife. It started ok as I had ordered starters before the party arrived. However once everyone showed up it took over 45 minutes for any one (first person) to get their food orders. They were (2 people) under staffed! How do you not prepare when you know you have a large crowd coming in? IDK what’s going on here however we had spent a LOT of money in this place the previous 2 years before spring/summer 2024. Since Angie has been gone pretty much….bring her back. We have deliberately been avoiding the Nickel because of this latest subpar “preparation & performance”.”

“Exquisite dining experience - ambiance, great wine and phenomenal food!”

“Absolute best meal I've ever had! I had the pasta al limone with shrimp - to die for! Followed it up with chocolate espresso cheesecake that was out of this world. Definitely will be back when back in Sioux Falls!”

“Selena was our waitress and did a phenomenal job! She explained the menu and Bibisol's process of cooking. Other servers always made sure our water glasses were full. Amazing atmosphere! The food was delicious! We were celebrating my birthday and gifted with a complimentary dessert! Will definitely be returning!”

“I have been searching for pork jerky for months, and this was the spot on, the most amazing I have ever had!!! great price, great portion and the best tasting ever!!!! i had also been searching for authentic Thai curry with coconut milk and again - THE BEST!!!!! The coconut milk added the exact type of sweetness, and the flavors were savory with the perfect amount of heat! i did the green this time and I can't wait to try the other flavors!!!!”

“My first experience was disappointing. My kiddo loved his Big Kahuna. My BLT, however was a huge disappointment as it lacked a few ingredients. The crust was definitely good so we may try it again at some point.”

“So delicious!!! Highly recommend the prime rib!!!”

“So glad to have found this restaurant on our quick pit stop in Sioux Falls coming all the way from Massachusetts! Delicious food in a beautiful, cosmopolitan space!”

“I don’t even know where to start with this place. If I were on death row and could choose a final meal, it would be from Lalibela. I’ve never eaten something there that wasn’t spectacular. The spice level is perfect, enough to warm up your lips but not too hot to overpower the perfect blend of spices. My only complaint is that I don’t live down the street from it anymore. BEST FOOD EVER!”

“Absolutely amazing food. I got the chicken burrito with extra pico, tomatoes, and lettuce. They do charge à la cart. But still very reasonably priced for the amount of food and the flavor was 10 out of 10.”

“had a pretty classic and a very creative pizza and both were great! lots of options and welcoming atmosphere”

“Had the pleasure of finding Josiah’s as recommended by a friend. So pleasantly surprised and it hit all the things that make a cafe fabulous; great menu and service, staff were extremely friendly and helpful, food was excellent and priced just right. The ambiance was fun and relaxing! Highly recommend. If you have to wait…it’s worth it.”

“Amazing food. Amazing service. Vanesa was super nice and recommended the Jerk Chicken which was the best meal I’ve had in a long time. I loved the ambience of the restaurant. Beautiful interior and an open second floor that was super fun to sit in. 10/10 would be a regular here if I lived in Sioux Falls”

“The best service I’ve ever had in Sioux Fall! My steak was tender excellent flavor. Bottle of Argentine , Black Cabre was excellent. Great atmosphere & spotless ! Definitely going back! ***** stars”

“Great atmosphere Great food”

“Amazing hidden gem! I’ve driven by this little cabin for years, finally tried it this year… We have been back several times already! Every single time the iced lattes have been incredible & the prices are the best in town. The owner is wonderful, customer service is top notch. We will be huge supporters from here on out!”

“Great coffee, reliable Wi-Fi, and a welcoming atmosphere for working, reading, or writing or just hag out with couple, friends or family.

Laptops are allowed, and the space is thoughtfully designed with a variety of table sizes—ideal for individuals, couples, or small groups.

The café is bright and airy, with high ceilings and abundant natural light that create an inspiring environment.

They offer coffee bags from different origins, along with a well-curated coffee and tea menu.

Everything was clean and well-kept, and the staff was exceptionally friendly and attentive.

We visited twice in one day—first for our morning coffee, then returned for lunch—and spent several peaceful, productive hours here. The energy of the space made working enjoyable and effortless.

Highly recommended for anyone seeking a comfortable and inspiring place to work or relax.”

“I went there today for the first time. I ordered the salmon BLT. They smoke the salmon in house. This sandwich was LOADED with salmon. Fresh tomatoes and perfectly cooked bacon brought this BLT together nicely. one of the best BLT's I've ever had. The staff was amazing and so nice. This was my first time there but definitely not my last. I can't wait to try the Nashville Hot chicken next! They even make the ketchup in house.... 5 out of 5 stars”

“former employee - I was harassed and then groped by one of their line cooks. when I reported it, i was made to cry, blamed, asked why i didnt report it sooner (waited little more than a week, after the employee started bullying me even worse). had to sign something to say I would not speak about it to other employees. fired soon after due to retaliation. FACTS. Morries and Vangaard are horrible. In my opinion! sorry not sorry, being bullied and sexually assaulted is something you NEVER FORGET.”

“Great place , friendly staff , very clean and cats are well cared for. My daughter and her friend had a great time visiting .”

“I have been here three times in the last 5 years (I do not live near by). Philips has the most amazing food and is a pretty unforgettable place to go. I can’t wait to go back.”

“Fantastic Latte’s. Hazelnut, Miel and Baristas Choice! Splendid coffee”

“Loved this place!! Was visiting from out of town, and luckily stumbled across this awesome spot. The food was fantastic, atmosphere was super fun and the staff was amazing. 🤩 I highly recommend checking it out!!”

“This was my first time eating at Shalom and first time ever eating Ethiopian Food. Seble was so incredibly friendly, kind, inviting, and passionate! You can taste the love she has for feeding people through her food. Ethiopian food may be my new favorite cuisine all thanks to the incredible experience at Shalom!”

“Best bar in town and probably the world”

“An awesome place to eat! the waitress was very pleasant and attentive and the servers came around frequently with the different meets. All the food was very good, but the gorgonzola beef medallions and chimichuri pork were amazing!”

“Great staff, beer, and burgers. Unfortunately the prices are approaching “fine dining” for some reason so”

“I have never found a more perfect macaron!”
