The USA Today List Restaurant of the Year 2025, published today, emphasizes 44 restaurants across the country, ranging from fine dining rooms to the best kept secrets in local communities.

USA Today Network Food journalists from the US collectively used their experience to choose restaurants for this list, including places they know, love and recommend in the communities where they live and work.

The list in 2025 included Sanaa’s Gourmet Mediterranean as a representative of Sioux Falls.

Her delicious dishes from the Middle East and a charming presence feel almost incomparable in South Dakota, but Sana About is one of many local chefs who deserve praise.

Here are five other restaurants that Sioux Falls is lucky to call it.

MB Haskett Delicatesssen

Epicure Michael Haskett wanted to simplify it. When he opened his restaurant downtown in 2012, he and several friends only knew that they wanted to achieve “seasonally focused on scratches that intend to improve the common good.”

Today MB Haskett is a lively, friendly bistro established in the Sioux Falls Community as Place For Brunch. Call forward if you want crepe or kish or croke Madame before lunch. The tables are small, the staff is simplified, but the menu extends far beyond eggs and toast.

Come to Baguette’s Miso or Brie’s Brae’s Tone for Lunch and return to their main beef beef of beef or CoQ Au Vin Rouge for dinner when the evening light is sensual and warm. Haskett’s always feels like the first date.

The Sioux Falls, SD, Chef is inspired by Minneapolis Locavore Lucia Watson, but his dishes from the farm to Harken Harken American restaurateur Alice Waters. The food is fresh and sophisticated and the perfect serving size that you will want to go back to brunch. Loyal locals always do it.

Sushi mass

Another cozy night may be in a sushi table, a landmark of the neighborhood, which was one of the first in the city to serve declining Japanese dishes and velvet rich in Umami.

The owners of Fumi and Yuki Na, originally from Hokkaido, Japan, spent time cooking in Miami before moving to South Dakota to open a sushi table 25 years ago. He continues to be the one to visit the visitors to try and that families consider their special evening, hiding in the built -in corners of eating to share tricolor sashimi or nine nigras.

For starters, Sushi Masa employees recommend a refreshing roller of cucumbers, a delicate cold cucumber ribbon that awakens the mouth in the same way that it would spray water on your face. Ahh, the evenings say.

Regular individuals also suggest that the eel of a barbecue wrapped in sushi rice in a perfect leaf of seaweed and UNAGI sauce. Or try the Negihama roller with oil yellow bread and mince. But miss the soy sauce for this one and instead enjoy a hint of Wasabi.

R wine bar and kitchen

This is infidelity. After R Wine Bar & Kitchen opened in downtown Sioux Falls in 2018, owners Ricardo and Meribet Tarabeli continue to open a sluggish wine bar less than a mile, then another tall Italian restaurant in the neighborhood and soon , a spoken man jazz club in style, all within six years.

Oh, and they also run a catering business if you want to get their squid ink Fettuccine or Spicy Pomodoro on your next holiday gathering with friends.

We recommend all five.

Ricardo Tarabeli grew up in Italy, with Kianti at every meal, but actually worked in healthcare, before he and his wife Meribet move to Siou Falls to return to her hometown. For the first time, Ricardo managed several Sioux Falls restaurants before finding the space and longing to open his own by serving pasta, tortillins and charcoal with salted Italian meats.

Now they have three grown sons, one of whom has become a sommelier and all of whom help manage the book of stories, family businesses. “ENCRI COME AMICI, VADA COME FAMIGLIA,” they say, no matter which of their Italian places you have chosen to dine. “Enter as friends, leave as a family” and that’s exactly what you will do.

Kharvester Kitchen by Brian

Harvester Kitchen owner and New Jersey -born Brian Moskatello is available for work on the east coast to bring an exclusive eating experience to Sioux Falls. Here, the kind staff takes your time with you while you are guilty of choosing seasonal, multi -stage menus. This is American cooking, with traditional great plains delicacies such as Wagyu Tenderloin or PHEAASANT, but with the ordered hospitality in a low -lit atmosphere of minimal style.

From its plant -based menu, try the sweet potato pasta with Fraiche, Piperade and spring ramps that marinated here to enjoy all year long, and finish with the red pumpkin pie with white and dark chocolate, basil and cashew. Just divine.

The Chef’s Menu boasts Croque Monsieur with Bistro Ham and Comté, which are aged for years while Moscatello saves a caramelized Maitake sponge and a cheesecake on the Hill for its Signature menu, option for seven courses with American cultivation of charging wine. Find yourself and enjoy everything.

Parker Bistro

Another two -way bistro of Parker in the center of Sioux Falls began to build his respected reputation 15 years ago before opening a nursing salon and extending the dining room in the neighborhood, myrtle hair. An equally sophisticated cocktail bar is a nod in the history of the original building and the grandmother of Stacey Newcomb Wyland.

But Parker’s bistro tries more than his historical ties. Due to its greatness, the kitchen at the local level is mostly enjoyed on special occasions. Families come for anniversaries, wedding receptions, or even to engage in the propulsion back corner of the candle.

As in Harvestry, this is a casual experience with such a sense of virgin pace and care, you remain for lavender Martini, even after enjoying high quality dishes such as Brie en crrows, cauliflower steak, spicy amatristics, their famous duck breast or Tournedos , a fillet from a friend of the pan with Fui, Truffle and Red Wine sauce.
