Bay Leaf Cafe

SPEARFISH. Take full advantage of South Dakota's bounty at this prominent restaurant, which culls the best regional ingredients and creates from them a purely local cuisine. Game is prominent, as proven by entrees featuring pheasant, elk, and buffalo. Rainbow trout and walleye also get special treatment, courtesy of sauces crafted from herbs, berries, and regional wines. Portions are generous, and if you pace yourself, you'll find a decadent payoff in Bay Leaf's fabulous desserts. Great ambience.
