Reviews Summary
Crack'd Pot offers a nostalgic diner experience with friendly, attentive service and generally good food at reasonable prices. Many praise the steaks and comfort food classics.

"Really good food at reasonable price. Staff is friendly and attentive."
David Harris
"The service is really good as we got seated immediately on a busy Sunday Morning. Brought drinks out pretty fast, but the food I would say wasn’t too good. I ordered strawberries and whipped cream on my waffle and it was smothered to the point of being inedible. The eggs and hashbrowns no season at all. The gravy was okay, and pancakes were good if you like original pancakes with syrup."
Evett Ellis
"So I have eaten 5 times at the Crack d Pot in the last month as I have been to Sioux Falls on 2 business trips. The past visits have been great with staff and the food.
Today, minutes ago and as I sit in my rental car fuming, I am very disappointed. I order the 14 oz Ribeye that I have enjoyed before, and with fries.
Repeated it twice to the waitress.
Out comes my food and what did I receive but a baked potato. No worries, I will knock it out. Steak was another story. Very fatty, laced with gristle and undercooked. I eat about 4 ounces of the steak as the rest was inedible.
Told the waitress, she misspoke to the owner who told her we don’t have complaints like yours. She told him I said this was the three bad one this week. I corrected her and she told the owner accurately of my experience today. I was told “the. Order the Strip”
She took of 10% for my trouble. NEVER again will they get my business. I was humble and civil and almost didn’t tell her and told basically too bad order something different. Look at the pictures and judge for yourself. I will never return to this restaurant."
