12 Best American Restaurants in Deadwood

“Really the only up scale menu and atmosphere in Deadwood. The food is excellent across the board. HUGE cuts of American Beef and large wine menu give plenty of pairing options. Sea Bass, Shrimp and crab cakes make for great seafood options too. Our server Peyton was amazing!! She knew the menu and specials down pat and did a wonderful job serving our meal. Expect to spend at least $100 per person between appetizers, drinks, main course and desserts.“

“We were in Saturday for a late birthday lunch and it was absolutely perfect! The food was phenomenal, everyone in our group loved what they ordered, but beyond that our server Austin was amazing. We were a little rowdy and he was great at putting up with our nonsense and was so much fun but also very knowledgeable and made great food recommendations. I had a burger that Austin recommended and it was delicious! We also really enjoyed the bar tender too but unfortunately I didn’t get her name. Overall it was a great experience and we will definitely be back!“

“Loved our stay this last week. Our cabin was great met all our needs. Great base to ride our RZR and our Harley. Will definitely be making a return trip. It was quiet, clean and the staff was wonderful!!!“

“The waitress was great, so accommodating and patient as I had many dietary restrictions. But I’m confused as to why the cook/chef/person in the kitchen wouldn’t allow her to take a picture of the ingredients on a box of their food?? It took multiple attempts for our waitress to go in back and check for certain ingredients because they wouldn’t let her just take a pic and show me. Very disturbing. Your customers should have access to read the ingredients in all of the food you offer. Fortunately your server is the one giving you 4 stars, otherwise scenarios like this will usually get you 1 star from me.“

“Such a great place!!! The views are amazing. The restaurant had very good food and great service. I feel like I am at a resort.“

“The food quality and obvious top notch attention to detail and care that the staff take make this my go to spot in Deadwood. You have to give this place a try if you stop through town!“

“I travel alot, and coming to Deadwood, I Highly recommend the Gulch. Rooms are VERY Clean, I think the Bed is better than my own at home, and they have FREE BREAKFAST! The Bonus is , I won 2000$ last time, and won 500 just walking to my room. It's not on the Strip, but WOW, Impressed.“

“😀Great food, quick service and awesome servers. I thought it was comical that they serve your food on paper plates. But, honestly, one of the best chicken fried steaks I have ever had. Our waitress was friendly and funny. She made our experience even more enjoyable. Cute little cafe that was once a service station.“

“Food was absolutely delicious! Our waitress Mailene was scattered and kept forgetting things, but luckily it was early in the morning and we were in slow motion so we were in no hurry. Would visit again just because the food was so good, the restaurant was incredibly convenient, and we enjoyed our stay overall at the Lodge at Deadwood!“

“Terrible hostess. We're told there was only high-top seating left as we were seated walked by numerous booths that were open. No one came to serve us. we left after 10 minutes of silence, while the hostess was on her phone outside of the kitchen. Boy, was she shocked when we picked up our things and left. Motto "Everyone's welcome" was by the far the biggest lie that was told yesterday. extremely disappointed. -5/10“

“We have actually went there twice or maybe three times. Can't remember. The food was great. The service was excellent. They were very fast and the food was always good no matter what we got. I would highly recommend going there went in Deadwood for any meal, lunch or dinner.“

“Excellent food in a nice quiet environment with comfortable seating. Very interesting how it is located in the place of the original Gem from the 1800s. If you're a fan of the HBO Deadwood series then take note the restaurant seems to honor another HBO series - Chernobyl, because that's how hot their horseradish is!. Far better than any horseradish I've ever eaten.“
