Downtown Sioux Falls — Attraction in Sioux Falls Township

To be honest Sioux Falls has a downtown that stinks, figuratively and literally. You get the smell of John Morrell (eau de Pork) and the various weird smells of the building down here. Most of the stores look like they got their merchandise from Goodwill and priced it at about ten times what you pay there and half of the businesses looked dilapidated. Don't forget about the rude service from these places as you buy your Goodwill, er excuse me, 'retro' themed merchandise. As far as the restaurants go they are about as sophisticated and upscale as your average Chuck E Cheese with a menu that's not too far away from it.

Shared tiramisu for dessert it was very chocolate forward instead of coffee so for people with the sweet tooth it's very good. Overall very good experience we...

A couple years ago, I thought our downtown (Fargo) had more to offer than downtown Sioux Falls. But I was in downtown Sioux Falls a couple weeks ago and my goodness, it is amazing! Lots of fun stores, restaurants, and an amphitheater, which was crowded with people listening to music. The atmosphere, art, and cleanliness of your downtown is second to none! I especially like the art installations you have around downtown that have not been vandalized in any way. And your sidewalks are so clean! Great job,...
