Sear Black Hills Steakhouse

Great food and loved our server!!!

The aioli fries are a unique item that you cannot get anywhere else in the area, and are genuinely fantastic! The steaks are delicious, and a wonderful departure from the same generic "steak seasoning" used everywhere. The service was wonderful, friendly, and were actually listening and paying attention. They are still getting their bar menu figured out, and were very receptive to feedback, even changing their recipe based on the feedback. Overall, this is a wonderful place to stop in to enjoy a nice steak dinner while in the Black Hills. Parking: Plenty of parking all the way around the building. They would probably still have plenty of open spaces while having a full-house.

Amazing food!!! Excellent service as well!

When we first ate at Sear after the rebrand, I wasn’t too impressed. It took us awhile to go back, but I am so glad we did. I ate the best burger I’ve had in a long while. I honestly CRAVE that burger and fries now. Our server was so sweet too. My fiancé got a steak, and that was also delicious. I highly recommend!

Ok so we have another Steakhouse to go with the other 3 that we already have and no I do not count places like Perkins or Applebee's for steak places! This place will rank right along with Longhorn, Dakota, and Texas Steakhouses. Let's begin with the atmosphere since it is the first thing you will notice coming here. It has really nice subtle lighting, nice big booths that could fit 6 people comfortably and really nice selection of music playing from Sade to Vanessa Carlton. The atmosphere hits on all the key points for me and they don't disappoint at all:) Next will come the service. Our server was very kind, respectful and helpful with us since it was our first time and we didn't know what exactly is good or not. Came back several times to check on us which was also really nice, and even asked if we wanted dessert or not. Service did not disappoint here as well:) The food, how was it? Well it is quite tasty from the Salmon that I ordered to the 7oz Steak my partner ordered. Do note that the steaks are just seasoned with salt and pepper I believe, they do not have a sauce on them unless you order that separately with it but you will be charged extra for the toppings! The salad was good and the dessert was also good. My only let down with this place wasn't the price it was the fact when you go to a place that you know your going to pay $50 per person why would you give me such a little amount on my sides for my main dinner? I had as you can see in the pic only 2 pieces of asparagus and a scoop of potatoes. This was the only let down this place had for me. I know the salmon was supposed to be the main dish but if it comes with sides then give me sides and not samples! You can't go wrong if you choose this place! It ranks in quality with the Longhorn here in Rapid City as being a good steakhouse. This place honestly deserves above a 4 stars but not a 5 stars. The price here is worth it since you are getting the whole package of great food, service and atmosphere. This will definitely not be a regular place to eat at, but one for special occasions. Once or twice a year:) Nice addition to Rapid City!!

Went there for a company dinner and had a great time. Excellent food, great service, great atmosphere for celebrating. Dietary restrictions: Worked great with my allergy. Thank you for answering all my questions.

We decided to try Sear for an anniversary dinner and it was OK, but we found ourselves generally underwhelmed. The Good: The steaks were cooked as ordered, tender and flavorful. It was a good cut of meat and done right. I’d give 4 stars if I was just reviewing the steaks. The goat cheese cigars were pretty good. The prices were also reasonable. The Meh: Pretty much everything else. Our server was ok, but we were sitting for close to 20 minutes before we even got drinks. They were busy, but not crazy busy, and everything was just a little off. Sides forgotten, slow, just meh. The sides were all well below what I’d expect at this kind of steak house. We tried the Brussel sprouts and they were soaked in oil and basically just covered with Parmesan. The truffle garlic butter was basically just butter for an extra charge on the side. The salad had so much huge chunky Parmesan in it that it overpowered everything. Like almost more cheese than lettuce. Was weird. And that was a house salad. Baked potato was fine but not impressive for any reason. The bread before the meal was good, but the garlic, oil, butter concoction was just ok. Balance was off. Bottom line, we won’t be back. There are better options in the area for a good steak.

An absolute pleasure in all aspects!

Overpriced and tje quality of food is subpar. Service was awesome though. Will not be going back.
