Wanting to avoid Valentines day crowds and madness, the wife and I celebrate a day early. We made reservations at 22ten and gave it a whirl. Off the start, they lost our reservation but they didn't hesitate and seated us after I showed them my online confirmation. No harm no foul. We ordered New Orleans cakes and Margaritas to start. Then Pork Marsala and Creole Jambalaya for entrees. The New Orleans crab cakes were super delish. Nice spicyness on the back end. Reminded me of crab cakes I've had on Bourbon street. The Margaritas for $8 were stiff as a corpse. The Creole Jambalaya was really good but to my surprise, no spicyness at all. I like to sweat when I order Jambalaya. Specially when it has andouille sausage in it. Aside from no spice, it was superb. My wife got Pork Marsala with pearl onions. I can't even describe the deliciousness of this dish. Unbelievable. For dessert we ordered bread pudding and a 2nd round of Margaritas. Every bread pudding I have ever eaten was a yellow bread. This was a dark pumpernickel type bread. It was so good I wanted to lick the plate. Our waiter Josh was quiet at first but I got him to open up and he has some personality on him. Fun waiter. Genuine person for sure. I really have no complaints. I wasn't sure why the menu stated Margaritas were $7 but our bill showed $8. Other than that, with a nice 25% tip, our bill was only $130! Best deal in town for the quality and overall experience. I actually think their dishes are underpriced. My favorite restaurant in Sioux Falls was Granite City, till now... this place is my new #1. Atmosphere to drinks to food was top notch. Definitely coming back for the Chislic and Elk Ravioli. If you're reading this and in Sioux Falls, go to 22Ten. Make reservations, it was packed on a Tuesday night.

My wife and I visited 22Ten on February 15 for our Valentine's meal. Across the board, all the food we had was delicious. The Moroccan Nachos made with fried wonton chips and served with braised beef were a nice spin on traditional nachos. My wife ordered the petite filet, medium rare, I ordered the lamb shank. We both also ordered a side salad: My wife ordered the petite Brutus, and I ordered the petite spinach chevre fennel salad. The side salads arrived about the time we finished our nachos. The salads were a delightful combination of fresh greens and vegetables. The fennel salad also contained small bites of candied fruit. It was one of the best side salads I have ever had. My wife's steak was flavorful, tender and juicy but was much closer to rare than medium. It was served with steamed asparagus over a bed of garlic mashed potatoes. My lamb shank was served over a bed of rosemary spaetzle, a light sauce and with fresh herbs. The lamb shank was braised perfectly... tender and delicious. For dessert we ordered one of the special holiday offerings: Chocolate Seduction. It consisted of an assortment of chocolates, sponge cake and a strawberry rhubarb sauce. Our server, Haley, was very pleasant, attentive and willing to offer comments about the dining options offered...a definite positive in our dining experience. The only real knock on 22Ten and the reason for the four star rating: It's too loud in the dining room. To add to that, one person seated at the table next to ours was doing whatever necessary to be heard over the surrounding noise.

So have you ever had a experience to where at first you were like hmm I'm not sure about this place? Well today I did. So for a appetizer we had the chili shrimp. Hands down, that was amazing. Sweet, spicy, crunchy, yet still the shrimp was soft and flavourful. I highly recommend it. For my entrée, I had the perrogi and steak tips(med rare). Perrogis were crispy yet soft. Insides were firm yet creamy. Had that goat cheese bite but wasn't sure if it was goat cheese. Steak tips were 8/10 tho. Easily tell they were flashed fried and not stove topped ot pan cooked. Yet they were still really good. Onions were sautéed to just the right point. Soft yet crunchy. The creamy sauce was amazing! Just a touch of pepper was all the plate needed. Now onto the other meal on my table. That was just the good ol fashion with a twist Mac n cheese. Now I'm not sure which was better, mine or hers. I couldn't help but jump from plate to plate. Now there is no complaints what's so ever on the Mac n cheese, but there could be a few additional items that would make it oh so much more better. The whole all around atmosphere was laid back. I know I will definitely be going back and bringing more people.

Located in a strip mall but, as they say, looks can be deceiving. They have done a fabulous job decorating this place. It is bright, modern and very inviting. Oh, and they have REAL salt and pepper shakers! There is a bar area and dining area in an open air concept. BTW if you are here for Happy Hour, head on over to the bar. (It would be nice if the hostess asked.) Our server was very friendly and knowledgeable. She offered several suggestions for food options. We decided on sharing the Chili Shrimp and Elk Ravioli along with The Brutus and Spinach salads. The salads came first and were fresh and tasty. I especially loved the spinach salad for its varied ingredients and vinaigrette. The shared plates were generous, but we managed to finish both. The shrimp were crisp with a definite heat especially if you (accidentally?) swiped them them through the sriracha. The accompanying slaw was crunchy and added a nice cooling effect. We were excited to try the ravioli but were a bit disappointed. It was rather bland, and the ravioli itself was very firm. All in all we really enjoyed ourselves and would definitely return when in the area.

Place was packed on noon thirty on a Thursday, which initially surprised me but then didn’t seem all that strange when I considered that this is one of the only places in town that isn’t a chain. I’m in Sioux Falls on a business trip and have been severely disappointed with the lack of choices when it comes to food. At 33, I was the youngest in the place at lunch time, and the prices were median but something I would have reconsidered if I hadn’t had a per diem. I ordered the lemon cake martini (fine), the steak tips and pierogis (the steak was flavorful but a little more chewy than I would have liked but the pierogis were AMAZING) and the cheesecake (also fine) Service was kind, if a little long— but considering how busy they were, I am more forgiving about this aspect. I would recommend coming here early or prepared to wait. There are some unique cocktails and different food items with plenty of familiar ones in the mix. In a town full of chipotle, fast food tacos, and mall food court-esque offerings, this place stands alone. If you’re sick to death of fast food, I highly recommend it.

Update to previous review: Have been back many times over the past few year, always a great experience, staff is always friendly. Everything I have ordered has always been good. Look forward to coming back for years to come. 4 stars as our waiter, food and drinks made up for the short comings of the host. I will return at some point. Great chislic and long island teas, I imagine the rest of the menu is just as good. Dined here 7/23/20, with a 6:15 reservation for the patio. Arrived at 6:00, there were a few dining but definitely not busy inside. Upon approaching the host I stated we had a reservation, gave him the name. He looked at his watch and scoffed "at 6:15", looks at me like I had the audacity to show up 15 min early. He then begrudgingly picks up the menus and asks if we still want the patio. I said we would and followed the host to the patio. Giving him the benefit of the doubt, I thought maybe it was really busy on the patio. However we were asked what table we would like as there were plenty available to choose from. At this point I realized that the host is just rude.
