Great stop for lunch! Loved the atmosphere, and the Mac and cheese bites were delicious.

Mehhh, it was okay, i wouldnt drive out of my way again, not a fan of the hot pickles on the burger, , i like dill, the host sat me and bartender brought my drink and food at the same time, brought the wrong soda too, it was diet, wasnt terribly expensive tho, i got the chute rooster burger, fries and coke, and tipped 18% and still only paid 20 and some change, but if i was visiting rushmore again id choose somewhere else to eat, just felt like a bar, not bad for a saloon style feel with a grill, if thats what your looking for tho, just a basic burger and fry, and its not worth $1 extra for chz, but thanks

**⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Absolutely Legendary – The Best Honky Tonk Experience in the Black Hills!**
If you're cruising through the Black Hills and craving an authentic slice of Wild West magic, look no further than the Chute Rooster in Hill City, South Dakota. This historic gem – a 125-year-old National Register landmark that's been rocking as the original honky tonk since 1971 – is pure perfection!
From the moment we stepped into this rustic, cowboy-dedicated haven with its eclectic decor, two bars, patios, and that unbeatable dance hall vibe, we knew we were in for an epic night. The food? Out-of-this-world delicious – juicy bison burgers, perfectly cooked prime rib, bourbon-glazed salmon, and those smoked wings with house sauce that had us licking our fingers clean. Paired with local craft beers and killer cocktails, it was a feast fit for any rodeo legend.
But what truly made this place shine brighter than a South Dakota sunset were the incredible hosts, **Cliff** and **Ryan**. These guys are the heart and soul of the Chute Rooster – welcoming, knowledgeable, and genuinely passionate about making every guest feel like family. Ryan's hospitality and Cliff's energy turned a great meal into an unforgettable adventure. Their dedication (along with the awesome staff) has elevated this spot to must-visit status!
Live music thumping, billiards clacking, and that lively Western spirit in the air – we danced, laughed, and didn't want to leave. If you're in Hill City, do yourself a favor and saddle up to the Chute Rooster. Five stars aren't enough – this place is Black Hills gold! We'll be back soon, y'all! 🤠🍻

We got here about an hour before closing so we got seated right away. The food is good. The decore is great for outdoor people.

Loved the Bloody Mary’s. The servers treated us like royalty. The green chili was delicious. The music was magic. Thanks for a fun-filled evening. Debra

After a week in Hill City, this is the best place to dine. Friendly service and great food. If you dare, try the ‘Mile of Hell’ burger - if you like it *really* hot, it’s outstanding! (if you don’t, you might need an ER)

I ordered food to-go recently. They answered the phone like they knew me and greeted me warmly. Food was ready right when I got there. Mashed potatoes were done well. The chislic appetizer was okay. Meat was tough and not very flavorful. Otherwise I really enjoyed my short interaction.

Great place to eat! The servers were all very nice and fast with our refills. This place fills up around 6 pm. The food tasted great so we went there a second time before leaving town.
Atmosphere: Honestly, you could do without the live music. It's distracting and makes it difficult to have a conversation while having your meal. Rustic Old Country Barn, like a Cracker Barrel with a bar only better.
Food: Hit and Miss. Green Chili Mac N Cheese was very good. Bison Burger = good. Kurvball BBQ = BAD, salty as hell. Hickory Smoke Prime Rib = BAD, poorly seasoned, no where near 14-16oz, more like 8oz.
Service: Our waitress the first night was very nice, sweet even, and very apologetic as it took us 90 minutes to get our food and it wasn't even busy. Our second try, our waitress was 8 month pregnant. Give her credit she did everything she could and she was nice.
