Buffalo Dreamer

Diners’ top pick

Price: Very Expensive

Guest must be 18 +
Balancing flavor in food is always a journey and a work of art. To create food alchemy is to get in touch with the ingredients, feel the little creative nudges, follow your instincts, take risks, have courage and just allow.
At Buffalo Dreamer, Chef Rebecca Christensen is a relentless perfectionist, pursuing harmony in American cuisine as she brings together food flavors and recipes from absolutely everywhere.
Located at Moccasin Springs, an ancient mineral spring with newly renovated soaking pools, Buffalo Dreamer offers the transformative experience of food prepared with love and deep intention. Come dine with us and rest awhile. You just might feel the spirits of the majestic buffalo that once bathed, wallowed and fed in this historic and sacred site.

We’ve always believed that dining should be a social occasion, a time when friends, family, and coworkers can enjoy great conversation over a great meal.
We believe in supporting our local artisans and staying connected to our Black Hills community. At a time when the area is growing and expanding, we are striving to keep the flavor of the region alive.
Inspired by the history of this area, both the aesthetics of the building and the diversity of the menu are true to our local roots, something no nation-wide franchise can duplicate. Certainly, there are other steakhouses out there, but none like ours.
From the first design to the actual construction, we have focused on creating a balance between upscale dining and a casual atmosphere-crafting a chic steakhouse where the kids are welcome too.
The rest is easy-buy the very best meat possible and prepare it correctly.

I had been wanting to try this place for a while. Let's say I should have gone sooner! It's very quaint and lovely inside. But the food! Oh my Aphrodite was the food delicious! And they made the French 75 wonderfully. I'll go back.

Food was excellent! Always a great choice for pub food. Service was slow but not bad, but it’s parade day and you could tell they were short staffed. Overall still a great experience.

Rapid City is the perfect launching pad for visiting Mt Rushmore, Crazy Horse Monument, Deadwood, the Badlands, and the Black Hills. The other thing Rapid City has going for is its inviting restaurant scene. Rapid has a long list of steakhouses where the chefs are classically trained and can fix the perfect steak. Many of the restaurants feature buffalo steaks or prime rib and buffalo burgers. In addition to steaks and buffalo, you’ll find family-friendly restaurants offering classic comfort foods. If you’re feeling more experimental, however, sample their international cuisine. Options include French, Italian, Mexican, and even traditional Indian and Nepalese dishes.
