I wanted to take a few moments to praise the server we had at Red Lobster. Her name is Rudy and she was phenomenal. I was visiting family in Rapid City and it was our first family dinner with all the sibling and spouses that we have had in years. We are growing older and I don’t really know how many more dinners we will have together in the future. She was kind, accommodating, took our picture, made sure we had what we wanted and even made sure we got what we needed even if we had to add on. We had 8 people at our table and she took our without writing anything down and got it right. The food was good but the service made the overall experience great. Good luck Rudy.

Birdies is simple food done right. Hand breaded chicken tenders, smash burgers, a full bar, and a room worth spending time in. Come for the food. Stay for everything else!Reservations are available for parties of 6 to 10 guests.

An absolutely fabulous evening from beginning to end! The petit filet was cooked to perfection, beautifully prepared and every bit as delicious as I had hoped. Evan, our server, was impeccable. Attentive, knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely gracious. He made the experience feel effortless, which is the mark of true hospitality. A special thank-you to Emilio, the Juniper manager, who was incredibly accommodating and made sure we had a wonderful table. That extra attention and thoughtfulness made the evening even more special. A shout-out to the entire bar team as well. The cocktails, execution, and attention to detail deserve recognition. It’s clear there’s a talented team behind the bar who takes pride in what they do. The atmosphere was equally wonderful. Beautiful jazz music, cozy lighting, and happy guests created the perfect setting for a memorable evening. It’s not often that every element of a dining experience comes together so seamlessly. From the kitchen to the bar, the service, and management, Vertex delivered an exceptional experience. Congratulations to the entire team. This is what genuine hospitality looks like. I’ll definitely be back!
