Embark on a Burger Quest. Bold. Juicy. Stacked.

Every spot is visited in person, and every bill is paid in full.

A stacked cheeseburger served on a plate with fries

I went hunting for the best burgers in Sioux Falls, and I looked beyond the obvious picks. I visited each spot in person. Three made the list: a rustic kitchen serving wagyu and Black Hills bison, a counter-service spot grinding its own Angus beef, and a burger joint with a food truck.

Burger Spots in Sioux Falls

  • Dining room at Rivage Oak Kitchen in Sioux Falls with a stone pillar, dark wood tables and bar seating

    Rivage Oak Kitchen

    300 North Cherapa Place
    Sioux Falls

    If you want a burger with a little more polish, head here. The vibe is rustic and casually elegant, clearly more than a burger joint, and the menu is built on locally sourced ingredients that celebrate South Dakota's heritage. I'd start with the Wagyu Burger or the American Bison Burger made with Black Hills bison, and there's a patio too.

  • Two wrapped burgers on a wooden board with a cup of sauce at Ranch & Roost in Sioux Falls

    2215 South Lorraine Place, Suite 100
    Sioux Falls

    Ranch & Roost serves locally sourced, affordable fast food, and it started out in Gillette, Wyoming. The 100% Angus beef comes from a farm in Raymond, SD and is ground in-house, and the fries are hand-cut daily and fried in beef tallow. It's take out only, with dine-in across the way at Big Lost Meadery, so grab a Mushroom Swiss Burger or a Cactus Style Burger and settle in.

  • Murph's Burgers green food truck with customers gathered outside

    5312 E Arrowhead Pkwy
    Sioux Falls

    Murph's Burgers is all about juicy, made-to-order burgers with creative toppings and crispy fries. Owner Murphy Lundie traded upscale kitchens for something a little more rough around the edges, and it's been open since 2022 with a brick-and-mortar spot and a traveling food truck. I'd order The Murphs Burger with its ⅓ lb patty and bacon jam, and come hungry, because the portions are large.
