“ Cutest place! The Peruvian bowl was the best thing we ate, and Esmeralda was the kindest soul! Also, the juice is hand squeezed and to die for!! ”

“ Stumbled onto this place while testing the range on my new EV. An easy 62-mile drive from Sioux Falls, Cee Cee's scratch kitchen in Vermillion is a hidden gem. There were so many items on the menu I wanted to try, but one can only eat so much. Very cozy on the inside. There is also a game room where the restaurant hosts murder mystery nights. Cool wall decors. But that's not why people go to restaurants. We started out with all three flat breads as appetizers. The steakhouse, the candid pear flat bread, and the grape almond flatbread. The beef on the steak house was tender and flavorful. The saltiness of the blue cheese (you don't have to like blue cheese. it turns into something very delicious and very creamy when it's melted on a pizza/flat bread) paired perfectly with the sweetness of the balsamic reduction. The goat cheese was also very delightful with the same reduction. According to our server, the bread for the flatbread is homemade. I ordered the patty melt, which was simply delicious. Two smashed burger patties on sourdough bread with gruyere cheese. My friend ordered the Peruvian meatball bowl. The meatballs were very juicy and tender. And the dish was very flavorful. The veggies, sauces, and rice came together as a whole, yet you can distinguish individual flavors. I noticed they had seabass on their summer seasonal menu. I really wanted to try the seabass Caesar salad. Which, also according to the server, had "homemade" Caesar dressing. We had a dirty martini, which we were given the choice of shaken or stirred, which implies the attention to all the details even carries over to the bar menu. The desert menu was unique. I prefer my deserts to be over the top rich and sweet sending one into a diabetic coma. That was not the case here. I wish I had taken a picture of the desert menu. there was homemade gelato. Affogato and a pear crisp. We had the pair crisp, which was great. Not molten cake drenched in sauce great like what i prefer but great non the less. I have eaten at restaurants all over the country. Cee Cee's kitchen definitely ranks in the top 10. ”

“ We attended a special chef's dinner, with wine pairings for each course. Such a fantastic job throughout the night. The food was amazing, we were blown away with the dishes we were being served in this little unknown restaurant in the small town of Vermilion. From the very bite to the last we were so impressed. & The pairings were done perfectly to each plate. The young chef prepared an outstanding meal! While I was hopefully after receiving the invite to this dinner, I had no idea it would be one of the most exquisite meals I've ever had the pleasure to enjoy! The restaurant itself is very unique & interesting. We were treated to a walk thru of the rest of the restaurant & it has some very cool hang out sections. I noticed some college age customers were playing one of the many board games I had seen. I could see spending nights here with friends tucked away in one of their cozy corners, playing & drinking one of the delicious craft cocktails. We got to visit with the owners who were very friendly & extremely knowledgeable on the different spirits they were serving at their establishment. Received a lesson in tequila from the root of the plant & got to sample a variety of them. We can't wait to attend the next chef's dinner! ”

“ Hidden gem in Vermillion. I got the framer burger and was great. Flavor, sauce and good thick bacon. Burger is small in appearance so throws it off but tasted great. Great atmosphere and friendly staff! Will be back ”

“ As someone who travels a lot, this is the best restaurant I've been to in a long time. Delicious and memorable food, unique atmosphere, friendly staff, and totally affordable. Someone definitely put their whole heart into this place. ”

“ While we were on vacation, this spot checked all the boxes. The owners, Josh and Amberly were phenomenal. They were very accommodating to our needs. I would definitely recommend this place if you are traveling through Vermillion, South Dakota. Thank you for a memorable experience . ”

“ My wife and I were finally able to get a night away from our own restaurant and decided to give CeeCee’s a shot. We were greeted by a very very sweet waitress who made excellent recommendations such as the pork belly bao buns and their house-made Peruvian sauce. Fantastic by the way! The cocktails were incredible and each dish was carefully crafted. The food took a little longer than your average midwestern joint, and for good reason! Quality, scratch food is an art that takes more than a few minutes and thank god it does. I hope everyone gives this establishment the opportunity it deserves and I sincerely hope we as a community break the cycle of all the mainstream, fast paced restaurants. CeeCee’s is a prime example of what real restaurants should look like. ”

“ Beautiful place with great service and elevated food! Stopped in for a late lunch. Sat down at the bar at one of the high-top tables by the window. We had a Crabby Goat Grub for appetizer - delicious! Then Sirloin and Goat Cheese Salad and 605 Tina Poke Bowl came out. Flavorful. Colorful. Delicious. State-of-the-art presentation. Impressive! Service was quick and friendly. Beautiful place with high ceilings, looks like the restaurant is in the historic building. Cozy, loungey feel. Stunning bar! Beautifully furnished place. Will visit again when back in town, for sure! ”
