The Dragonfly Restaurant in South Dakota

"We loved it! Went here for our anniversary. The food is made with real ingredients, and they care about health it seems. Wait time for food was very reasonable. And it tasted great!"

"Ode to the Dragonfly, a song of Saturday salads, salmon, sirloin and scrambled eggs. The brilliance of each salad, an intricate masterpiece, a symphony of vibrant beets, earthy and profound, paired with berries that burst with creativity. Zesty blue cheese, like a sharp and bold intellect, dances throughout it to playfully challenge your presuppositions of ripened mold with its tangy jabs. Beautiful hazel walnuts, golden and rich, glimmer with a romantic warmth and mystery, reflecting a light that seems to hold the world within them. A beauty soft yet striking, somehow gazing upon them captures the essence of living a life worth living. Every bite is a revelation of brilliance, a testament to the artistry that transforms simple ingredients into such extraordinary ballads of flavor. I spend each week happily remembering my Saturday salad and find my mind captivated with the thought of enjoying it yet again. The kiss of the salmon avocado toast can only be described as an intimate, electric, perfect union with the Divine. Delicate flesh which yields with the gentleness of a lover’s touch, while the creamy avocado taste lingers, a soft promise that she loves that you are alive and here able to enjoy each other’s embrace. Together, this salmon avocado toast, embodies the passion of a fleeting moment which ignites the senses and leaves a heartwarming fire burning in your chest like the memory of strawberry wine and a first summer love. Sirloin tips from tender healthy meat that embodies both strength and grace, from a body shaped by both power and elegance. Each bite of streak carries the quiet confidence of something built from years of disciplined perseverance while retaining its beautiful robust flavor with the hint of a buttery bliss which slowly dissolves into wonderful ecstasy within your mouth. Scrambled eggs as smooth as cream, delicate, and perfectly balanced between soft comfort and a healthy firmness, captivates the senses so quickly you can hardly think while enjoying them. To eat here is to experience not just food, but a life made of passion, of creativity, of mighty flavors and tender textures. What more could a man ask for than to spend the rest of his days in pure contentment with a stomach filled with such beauty, each bite the silent declaration of a love that nourishes both body and soul? The restaurant of my dreams, every meal a moment spent in paradise. Like a soul separated from its body, O how I already long for my next Saturday salad… till then I hope this ridiculous review made you smile."

"Absolutely fantastic- Chef Nicole made one of the best roasted vegetable medleys I have ever eaten, and I don’t say that lightly. She even kindly shared the details of how she did it after the meal when I asked. The steak was perfectly cooked and the potatoes were delicious. The local kombucha was wonderful and the atmosphere was cute and intimate. This is a must stop restaurant if you go to the spa/mineral springs or even if you’re just passing through!"

"We enjoy eating here after a soak at Moccasin Springs. It’s a unique menu and everything is delicious."

"10/10 dining experience from the food to the service! We celebrated my girlfriends birthday here and loved the whole experience. Their outside seating is perfect on a nice day, especially with how small the inside is. We had the Shrimp Cocktail and Caprese Salad as appetizers and they were both fresh tasting, the tomatoes were especially good! We had the Ribeye and Oscar Fillet as our dinner and again we were blown away by how good the beef was. We were treated to an amazing strawberry cheesecake for dessert that tasted freshly baked. If you're looking for a good dinner in Hot Springs then this is the place!"

"Way overdue but the moment has arrived I am finally inside the restaurant . Greeted by staff with a welcoming smile, we picked our table and got started with the coffee that ended up to be a big delicious hit. Went through the menu and made good choices, and when the food came out, there were no complaints on our end. Plated food looked good and delicious. Now I want to try lunch and dinner."

"Sooooooooo amazing the veggies the ribeye and the smashed tater. Oh yes it was fantastic. Nicole the chef is a genius an Kara the owner is awesome."

"As soon as you walk in you’re invited with calmness & tranquility. You take a right to the little restaurant that has 5 tables total. They seats 6, 4 people & 3 tables that seats 2 people. I would highly recommend in the summer time getting reservations. Gabrielle was absolutely wonderful… so kind and professional. The food just melted in our mouths. There’s not to offend where you don’t actually have to ask for salt & pepper, but it was so nice to actually have a chef that was completely up on the seasoning of their food. Delicious food and beautiful atmosphere is rare to find anymore. Thank you for the calmness! I would highly recommend ."
