"Our waitress, Shy-Ann did a very good job of looking after my party in our visit to the Yankton Perkins. She was personable, knowledgeable, and helpful. She was attentive to our requests, got our orders right, and went out of her way to ensure what we ordered was, indeed, available."

"Spent somewhat of a Sunday tradition for me and my son to eat at Perkins a continuation of my tradition with my mom when we used to always have Sunday dinner at big boys in Ohio. Today our visit was exceptional. It was extremely busy yet. Our waitress Shy-Ann continue to check on us and even care enough to bring out some of the meal we asked for prior since the restaurant was full. She went above and to beyond to make sure that my son was satisfied as well as myself great experience in a continuation of traditions. Thanks Shy-Ann !"

"I have country fried steak, with chocolate overload cake for dessert. My meal came quickly, the waitress was friendly, my steak was crispy and hot with cream gravy that was delicious. The cake was to die for but huge. Big enough for three people."

"Had a great breakfast. Service was quick, Shy-Ann did a great job. Food was out in a very timely manner, Shy-Ann checked back a few times to make sure everything was OK. We will stop by again."

"We decided to brave the cold for brunch this morning, asked to be seated in Betsy’s section (she’s our favorite). Seeing how busy her section was, we were a bit concerned, but thought we’d chance it anyway, since we weren’t in a hurry. Surprisingly, Betsy got right to us and took our order with her (always) smiling face. We watched as she waited on all the other tables in her section. She was just as pleasant with all her customers. Our food arrived very quickly and was delicious. We will be back and we will always ask to be seated in Betsy’s section! Great job!"

"This Perkins has really stepped it up. Our food was amazing! We did the burger fry pie deal and oh was it great. My husband got the heath pie and I got the caramel apple and what a nice treat. My son got a chocolate shake which he devoured he said was so good. And our server was polite, bubbly and on top of her game. Thank you for such a great experience. I wish I remembered our server's name. Will definitely be back!"
