32 Best Fast Food Restaurants in Rapid City

“Very delicious food, fast service. I would recommend this place 💯😎👍“

“We went in kind of late. I hate doing that to restaurant workers but I was exhausted from work and my kid and I really just needed a quick dinner. The guys there were great! I never heard one word about having to make food when they were trying to close. (I’ve heard this a lot from different places). They were nice and very much on top of things.“

“This was my first time at any Culver's and I give it 5 stars. I interacted with two employees and both were super nice. The burger (butter burger double with cheese) was very tasty and absolutely fresh. The service was fast and the interior clean and comfortable. I say this location is a step up from the normal fast food experience.“

“I had never been to the Eglin Blaze before the other day. I LOVE the Mountain View location, so was absolutely delighted by this one too! The pizza was absolutely amazing!! The employees are what make it worth it!! I want to give a HUGE shout out and a gazillion thumbs up to Ty and Chance!! They do NOT come any nicer or competent than these two!! Incredibly friendly and polite and a blast to talk to! And DANG! Ty makes a MEAN pizza!! I didn't get the name of the gentleman at the register but all the compliments go to him also. What a super nice guy!! I will make this location my regular spot when I'm on this side of town!! THANK YOU!!!!!“

“I love this place, my kids love it, I love it, it is overall just a great place to be. If I were to recommend a smoothie place, it would be this. The service is great and I am treated with respect, the food and smoothies are amazing, and there is a soft sound playing while you order and eat. Love it and would recommend.“

“I want to give a huge huge shout out to the Anthony Burton at the DQ in rapid city. We were eating close to closing time and in a hurry to get the kids back to the hotel I left my purse In the lobby. He contacted me and made sure I got my purse. I really really appreciate it and want to make sure he gets the shout out he deserves!!!!! Not many people out there these days that are honest like this!!!! Thank you so much Anthony!“

“This Culver’s is consistently on point! They have the friendliest service— the woman that is usually taking orders in the drive-thru in the afternoons is wonderful— & the food is always great. Definitely a favorite lunch spot & a good place for a sweet treat too!“

“Great quality food!! Always Fresh!“

“We stopped in for breakfast at this McDonald's, and dining inside was a clean and pleasant experience.

The dining room was bright, spotless, and well-maintained, with plenty of open tables to sit down comfortably. Ordering at the counter was quick, and the staff brought our food out hot and fresh in no time. The McMuffins were fantastic with warm, toasted English muffins, and the hotcakes were light, fluffy, and served with plenty of butter and warm syrup. Enjoying a fresh cup of coffee with a sit-down meal made for a really smooth, easy start to the day.

It was a great spot to stretch our legs, enjoy a quick breakfast in a quiet atmosphere, and get back on the road refreshed.“

“Went drive thru and ordered food. First time trying Taco John’s. Friendly staff that answered my questions about the different types of products.

Received my food and I am happy to report that it was quite tasty.“

“The amount of ice cream in the peanut butter parfait was less than any other DQ I’ve visited. That was disappointing. It barely exceeded the top of the plastic parfait cup! The heath blizzard was good though. Get a blizzard if you go here.“

“Always the best pizzas. Even our one minor issue was remedied full circle & then some. We’ve also had delivery a few times with Harold? I think that’s his name. The most friendly guy-and always sincere and quick service. Always pleased with this location.“

“My place also Verrrry good“

“Love Q. My only concern is the chips have changed over the last couple of years. Even asked an employee and she didn't agree. They use to be light, crispy with a hint of lime . They have a few of those mixed in, but for the most part they are the opposite, thick and pretty much tasteless. They had the good ones for Cinco de Mayo! They were soo good!“

“I have a child with food allergies. The servers did not change their gloves while handling multiple plates . The lettuce was cross contaminated with the cheese because there were not mindful. They seemed visibly annoyed when I ask them to change their gloves.“

“This TJ's location is the best in Rapid. The employees are almost all middle aged women, who actually care about their work performance and their customers, which is rare these days! Super friendly people making the most delicious food. I have decided they're the best in town for these reasons, but also because of the decent amount of ingredients in the food they make, fresh & hot. I'll drive across town to eat at this Taco John's. Keep up the good work!“

“I’m just curious if they will bring the chicken selects to this location“

“Danny was an awesome person to have while we were dining at McDonald’s. Can’t say I’ve ever had such good service except this time when Danny was there. He Truly cared about our experience while we were there. He noticed one of my girls meals didn’t come with a toy and he immediately rushed over to her to see what was wrong and got her a toy. he also noticed one of my girls spilt their fries and immediately got her new fries and even gave her more sauce. Truly a time my girls and I will remember. Thank you Danny.“

“I give a 5 star review because of my entire experience. The pizza and pizza melt both needed more sauce, especially considering I ordered extra sauce on the pizza and felt like it was less than expected on a regular pizza without the request for extra. However, I love this location & our meal was still good. I also have always had the best customer service every time we have been there. Seems like everyone truly cares and it makes all the difference.“

“If I could give this place 10 stars I would! The Dairy Queen in the mall is one of the cleanest that I’ve been in and each time I’ve been in there (and believe me, I’m there a LOT) the staff has been nothing but kind to me! The only bad experience I’ve had at this location has been with bad workers but thankfully the rotten ones don’t seem to last long 😉. I (begrudgingly) remember one lady who worked there for while (very nasty to me.. some i name or whatnot) even her negativity couldn’t keep this Dairy Queen crew down 🙂. Keep up the fantastic work you guys!“

“Athena is a great asset to your team! My kiddo and I just came by for his free snack shake from school & she was just the absolutely sweetest thing to him. He was so excited he wanted to order it himself, so I let him and she was just so friendly and responsive to him it melted my heart. She put a big ole smile on his face tonight. Thank you for being such an awesome soul Athena, from one grateful mama ☺️“

“I've always loved A&W, the first place I worked at as a teenager. As always the food was great. The staff were definitely overwhelmed and behind. Didn't exactly get my order correct but I should of caught it as they read it back (wanted cheese curds not cheese fries). The dining area isn't closed off from the gas station so that was a bit weird“

“Seriously, the best Taco Bell hands-down In Rapid City. Always such a pleasant experience always gets my difficult orders, correct. The people are just fantastic. They really have a great team whatever you guys are doing. You’re doing it right! I literally drive all the way from the west side to go to this Taco Bell because it is so freaking spot on every time! I appreciate all of you. Thank you so much for all your hard work and dedication! You really make it difference!“

“I like the e.north store good food and nice atmosphere Jenna is a very attentive manager“

“A series of mediocre experiences had put me off of Subway for a while, but I must rave on the curly-haired young man working at this store this afternoon who made me one of the best footlongs I've ever had the pleasure of eating. Usually I save half for another day, but it was so good I had to eat it all up. Sorry I don't have a name for the gentleman, but I do have sincere thanks and am encouraged to visit this store again very soon.“

“Great food!! First time at a Jersey Mike’s !“

“Fast friendly service ! 👍🏽“

“Nice service great food will come again“

“The mushroom is really tasty. very clean and Greta service.“

“Best Arby’s I’ve ever eaten at. Restaurant was clean, customer service was excellent, fountain drinks mix was spot on and food was fresh and hot. First time I’ve ever gotten a double roast bed that was truly a double! I know it’s just fast food - but they did a great job!“

“This certain arbys is always friendly. Fast and good food. But as of 11/10/25. I walked in to eat inside. And the dining area was disgusting. Sticking to your shoes. Food on the floor. Sticky chairs. Trash by fountain drinks. And sticky doors. Maybe they are short on help. But usually this place is sparkling clean. And smells clean. Just not today. Maybe its new manager? I remember couple years ago a nice older lady was on her hands and knees scrubing the doors when it was only 10° outside. She said she hated to see smudged doors. Bless her heart. The place always was super clean because of her i think. But, otherwise Food was still good and service was good. Just needed major janitor work. Clorax disinfecting time. 😇 Just putting this out to maybe let staff know it was gross inside.“

“Last night I ordered and got a messed up order. I was initially very upset because I just wanted tacos my way after my long day. Well it turns out it was an issue of the app not working right. The manager got ahold of me, verified the issue, and got my the ability to get my order resone the way I wanted. Now I have my after work tacos, done exactly how I want them, and received excellent service on this matter; despite the fact I wasn't able to get there till 15 minutes to close. Definitely will continue spending money here.“
