Often, the most remarkable treasures in life can be discovered in the most unexpected locations. This holds true for uncovering the finest sandwich in the Mount Rushmore State.
It's not in Sioux Falls. In fact, it's over an hour's drive away. The best sandwich in the state lies in the far southeast corner of South Dakota.

What sets this sandwich apart as the best in South Dakota? It's all about the bread.
It’s so tasty that Oprah Winfrey’s website praised it extensively back in 2014:
The best bread in the world is not in Paris. It' not in San Francisco, and it's not being made in some chic little bakery–art gallery in SoHo, either. The best bread in the world is waiting for you right at 812 Cottage Avenue, in downtown Vermillion, South Dakota.

Nestled in Vermillion, Mister Smith's has been a beloved local gem for years. Tucked away within the Ace Hardware Store, its discreet location adds to its charm. Residents enjoy keeping this spot a hidden treasure, away from the eyes of visitors.
Mister Smith's offers a simple yet distinctive approach to sandwich ordering, featuring a wide array of meats and bread choices. My top pick? The 3D Melt served on a rich, buttery baguette. Plus, this charming little eatery is known for having some of the friendliest staff around!
