While every meal at Harvester Kitchen is exceptional, the Feast of the Seven Fishes is absolutely out of this world. Bryan’s family tradition has become ours.

Steakhouse

Rapid City

About the restaurant

We’ve always believed that dining should be a social occasion, a time when friends, family, and coworkers can enjoy great conversation over a great meal.

We believe in supporting our local artisans and staying connected to our Black Hills community. At a time when the area is growing and expanding, we are striving to keep the flavor of the region alive.

Inspired by the history of this area, both the aesthetics of the building and the diversity of the menu are true to our local roots, something no nation-wide franchise can duplicate. Certainly, there are other steakhouses out there, but none like ours.

From the first design to the actual construction, we have focused on creating a balance between upscale dining and a casual atmosphere-crafting a chic steakhouse where the kids are welcome too.

The rest is easy-buy the very best meat possible and prepare it correctly.

About the restaurant

When I was a child I grew up with my mother, grandmother and aunt. All of them were very good in the kitchen. They had different styles and they cooked every day. From ravioli, soup or patisserie, everything was made from scratch. Those ladies were my teachers. My first lesson was dishwashing, later it was helping as their assistant. To honor those amazing woman who helped me in my early days, I decided to open Tarquin to bring Sioux Falls our flavors, recipes and dishes. Tarquin is a piece of Buenos Aires in a remote corner of Sioux Falls commercial district. You are always going to be welcome here and we will always offer you our best.

The ambiance was excellent; we had reservations and were seated immediately. The server was right there, and the service was impeccable. The empanadas were excellent. I had the pasta, and my wife had a salmon dish. The ground beef cannoloni was OK, but the cheese and spinach cannoloni was excellent. I want to go back to try the beef selections. The wine selection was excellent

We started with the crab cake. I wasn’t sure how the mango and jalapeño would be incorporated but when the dish arrived I immediately understood. The crab cake was amazing. Even the crab alone was tender and lemony. We each got the 8oz filet w a house salad for me and French onion soup for her. The salad was fresh and tasty but got a bit soggy w Italian, as most do. The French onion soup was fantastic. I’m pretty sure there was a 3ft cheese pull involved. Our steaks were cooked and seasoned to perfection and the mashed potatoes were delectable. The service was amazing. It was a little pricey but the atmosphere, service and food were fantastic. We will be back!
