41 Best Vegetarian Restaurants in Rapid City

“The food was wonderful and there were so many options! Buffett is currently closed due to pandemic but they have a very large menu of options - Indian to Central Asian with some Nepalese specialties - as well as mixed platters to make it possible to try a variety of things. The menu descriptions are fairly detailed and the spiciness level is a question asked for most items mild, medium, spicy). prices run from 8-12 for appetizers and 12-20 for meals and mixed platters which seems quite reasonable for the serving size and skill in preparation. It would be a wonderful place for families, romantic dinners out, or a good place to meet an old friend and talk over 2 or 3 courses. Inside was very comfortable, good spacing and light, not too loud, with many beautiful decorations and carved accents. The owners and staff were wonderful - friendly, accurate, quick to help and quite fast food preparation. I would absolutely come back!“

“It’s the best of the best!“

“This was a nice little brewery. We got a flight of beer. The Cowabunga Juice, Cliche Hazy and Pop Bumper were all good. I especially enjoyed the Centennial Trail IPA with centennial hops. The biggest disappointment was the Bbl Aged Transcendence. It was big and boozy but not a lot of flavor.“

“I would recommend the Texas Roadhouse Salmon dinner with the choice of salad and their in house French dressing it's incredible as well as their green beans yum. The Rapid City , SD Wait staff are always amazing and helpful as well as all the staff from beginning to the end. The food is always cooked to perfection and delicious. Thank you to all the staff for your amazing hard work in keeping myself and my family wanting to come back for more.“

“This restaurant is a solid 5-star with Incredible food and attentive staff. It is a a local favorite but this traveler will return! Legit hand breaded chicken fried steak and real mashed potatoes were perfectly prepared. No prebreaded steak or boxed mix used in our meal. Complimentary bread before the meal from their in house bakery was tender and tasty as was their coconut cream pie with authentic flaky, home style crust with fresh whipped cream topping and rich filling. This will not disappoint!“

“Delicious meals! Great service! Family friendly atmosphere. Highly recommend ❤“

“We had a great experience at Mexico Tipico. The atmosphere of the restaurant is bright and happy. We were served lots of delicious chips and salsa. Our waitress was nice and friendly. The food was delicious and they had lots of choices. We had the steak dish, which was tender and delicious, and a huge burrito with flavorful chicken and veggies, with a great cheese sauce. We were very happy and full. We highly recommend Mexico Tipico!“

“Very good atmosphere very good people and a good menu the specials of the day run out fast because they’re specially good 😋 check them out you won’t be disappointed.“

“Would absolutely recommend Shipwrecks Bar & Grill! They have their own separate gluten free fryer. My 2 year old son with Celiac and other allergies was able to have walleye fingers with French fries and loved them! They even made it into a kids meal for him! The head chef was very knowledgeable about celiac and willing to talk with us! Wonderful experience all around!“

“Thirsty’s Burgers & Beers was tonight’s choice for dinner. Not only was the food great but our server was AMAZING! He always had a smile on his face and we never had to look for him. He made sure we had everything we needed. Great experience. Will definitely return!“

And add to that how commited they are to local and sustainable ingredients. Got my business forever!“

“This is a great restaurant. My wife’s order was not up to her liking. She returned it bc she was not used to potato nachos. We did not expect a discount or comp. We were wrong! Amazing! Thanks! My appetizer was great. Drinks were great. Service at the bar was outstanding. Friendly! Responsive! Informative! Very reasonable pricing! This is the kind of restaurant travelers like us love to patron. Keep up the fantastic work! Thanks again’“

“The service was fantastic. Janice catered to everything we needed. We ordered items to go plus had to bring some entrees home because portions were huge. The price was right where we needed it to be and we will more than likely be back before the end of the week.“

“best Mexican restaurant in rapid by a scathing, country mile 🔥 there isnt even a close 2nd.“

“Buffet your way is wonderful as we were able to order the exact pizza we like and it came fresh out of the oven. Friendly staff and on top of picking up used plates so the table was free of dirty dishes. As always the chicken is absolutely the best!“

“Some of the best service and food in a very long time in Rapid! A++++“

“Service was great from the hostess to servers. The two others with me had steaks, good flavor but prefer a thicker cut instead of thin cut that looks bigger. Had the salmon and it was very good. One had the brussel sprouts that had maybe 3 slices and the rest was burnt, loose leaves. Manager blamed it on the supplier, if that is the issue then remove it from menu, there were at least two other items not available.“

“Fuji Steakhouse is such a great place to enjoy a delicious meal! The food is flavorful, fresh, and cooked really well. There’s something about having a good steakhouse meal that makes the experience feel special, and Fuji does a great job delivering that.

The portions are satisfying, and the overall quality of the food makes it a place I would happily visit again. The atmosphere is also enjoyable and makes for a nice meal whether you’re going out with family, friends, or just looking for a good dinner.

The service was friendly and helped make the experience even better. I always appreciate a restaurant where the staff are attentive and make you feel welcome.

Overall, I highly recommend Fuji Steakhouse. Great food, good service, and a nice atmosphere make this a place worth checking out. Definitely a spot I would return to when I’m craving a good steakhouse meal!“

“Service was awesome thanks Kayla s“

“Brent was an excellent, excellent server. He made helpful selections. Our food was over the top good. The cocktails were tasty with the right amount of alcohol. The Oktoberfest lunch menu was very German, The service was excellent. We are from Indiana and highly, highly recommend Minerva’s. Thanks for a 10 star lunch!“

“1st time here and couldn't ask for more. Good food, great portions & excellent service. Shame we don't have this company in South West England.“

“The fish & chips are perfectly battered and a beautiful, golden color, the homemade tartar is really good!!! Very impressed with having malt vinegar available. Highly recommend the margaritas too.“

“The service in the past might have been bad, but we didn't experience that tonight. Spencer did a great job, seating us promptly, asking if we had questions about the menu (we did), answering said questions, asking us if we liked our meals, and keeping our drinks filled.

My wife and I both enjoyed our sandwiches. Lots of interesting flavors in The Spaniard. They worked well together.

Prices seemed pretty much in line with other places in the vicinity.

Now, for the one negative. The salt! The tater tots were way too salty, as was the olive puree on my sandwich. Thankfully, I ordered the latter on the side. Dial the salt back and this would've been a home run.“

“Excellent service! Beer and food was delicious. We had the best Rueben ever!“

“We brought our whole Boxing team from Nebraska to eat here on Saturday night and the staff from the cook to our server was TOP NOTCH! The cook even made a special bowl with all of his favorite sauces for one of our fighters. Our server engaged with us and made sure we had what we needed at all times! Thank you for a great experience“

“Love the decor & vibe in there! The drink I got was so tiny though and I could barely taste the alcohol but it was good. The steak was the best I’ve ever had and the garlic fries, yum! Such a good meal! The dessert was so fricken good! The entire experience there was just awesome! Loved it!“

“great food , excellent service 👌“

“The food is always good and sometimes the service is great also. I enjoy the variety of food to choose from. Need cocktail sauce when the sign says you have it but actually don’t. The shrimp is good with it just not tonight though. Need chicken strips on the line.“

“Went 2x during Sturgis Rally 2026
Hostess sat us immediately. Upon 2nd arrival she informed us there may be a wait, we were fine with that. Our server Jake (our server both times) came quickly, was very friendly and both times was spot on with food & coffee. He didn't forget a thing and was super friendly. Our 3rd visit that same week, service was 'meh'. If we make it again before we leave, we're hoping to get Jake again. Most excellent service!!! Oh, food was good too, but Jake was the best!!“

“Good Food. Cordial watresses. Priced right.“

“Excellent Service. Food is fantastic! Best Chinese food I've ever had!“
