Restaurants near Lake Pahoja Recreation Area

We will recommend Maribella over and over again forever. The service is probably the best we've ever had. Not to mention, the food is outstanding. We continuously request Brit because her knowledge, attention to detail, memory, and kindness are unmatched. Jackie, the hostess, is amazing. We have met the owner a couple of times, and it's no surprise they have multiple businesses that are so successful. Management is top-notch. I seriously couldn't run out of good things to say. We have been coming to dine with them since the first month they opened and will continue forever. Our first weekend away from our toddler and staying out downtown Sioux Falls and Maribella was the highlight. Last night, we got our usual - the short rib and the lamb chops. Perfection. There are so many other good things on the menu, I always have difficulty choosing, but I'm never upset with my choice! If you haven't tried them, you need to.

Fresh, tasty food. Loved the crispy fish tacos! Great service. Such a neat atmosphere.

Great intimate dating experience. First class from start to finish.

Beautiful restaurant, evening dining with view of Falls Park holiday lights was spectacular. Food was delicious and beautifully presented. The staff and our waiter provided excellent service, and he was very attentive. I felt the prices were a bit steep ~$130 for one person for steak and a salad, 2 wine and a dessert. The chairs in the middle tables are not padded or cushioned and I couldn't get comfortable, they had the feel of an outdoor cafe. They asked to take my coat, which was great, however it was stored down by the entrance door and was freezing when I went to put it on to leave. Overall, a great experience, a couple of things need attention.

We got to talk with chef. It was our first time eating here. He sent out several different dishes to try. Wow. Great food, service and ambience. Going back soon to try more
