Great for creative cocktails

Situated in beautiful historic downtown Sioux Falls: surround yourself with century old quartzite and brick walls, funky & energetic ambiance, tempting & flavorful dishes, innovative cocktails and an extensive wine & beer list. Take notice of our namesake as you are stepping over the threshold, the original 1963 Crawford's logo is still there.

The decor unabashedly integrates masculine and feminine: wild west meets gypsy...from the cowhide paneled bar, quartzite bar top, iron railroad track footrest and reclaimed wood tables to the vintage tiles, jeweled wallpaper, Moroccan chandeliers and antique Indian columns ...no detail is left untouched. The same holds true for the food: from your prime cut of steak to the wild-caught salmon, every element is carefully considered.

Excellent dinner and cocktail menu, full bar, 58" LED TVs and fireplace.

The lighting was so bright, we were put in the very back corner despite an advanced reservation, the chairs and menu were soiled with food and the overall experience did not match the $400 meal for 3 people.

The food is usually good, but this visit the steak was pretty tough, and I even ordered the dry aged strip. Rest of the food was good though.

Food appeared preprocessed. I had the Wallete and it was like a large pre-reader piece of fish. Truffle burger was very sloppy. Waited a while for our drinks as well. Only thing great was the spicy margarita. I’d skip this place as food was not worth the price.

Bourbon Apple Pork is amazing. Easy to taste why it won the 2024 pork showdown.

Fantastic service and great atmosphere. We had a 6 oz filet that was over salted. Vegetables were as well. We have had this before and it was perfect. They may have a new chef. A definite increase in prices. A Makers Mark old fashioned is $24, so Vegas prices. We love going there but will definitely scale back on how we order.

We had a very dismal experience at Crawfords last night. I had made a reservation at 730pm for 4 people and we showed up on time. The hostess informed us that our table was still occupied so we waited almot a half hour to be seated. In the mean time, she sat another party of 4 before us even though their reservation was after ours. When asked about this, she said “I don’t know.” She then seated us at a table for 8 even though our party had 4. We were able to move to a 4 top after asking about it. We waited almost an hour for our food - three of my party had ordered salads, and unfortunately they messed up their orders. When asked for a refill on our wine, two of our party waited over 30 mins for them to the point where we didn’t even want them anymore. For how much our food cost, the service and quality did not warrant the price. I have traveled extensively and consider myself a foodie - it was a very disappointing experience. My suggestion is to have more people on staff who are trained. I felt really bad for our server - he was scrambling and the bar and kitchen wait time were not his fault. My suggestion is to save your money and your time - there are WAY better options downtown for an upscale dinner!
