Two ways to host at Skogen

The whole restaurant
Our three dining spaces are yours for the night, for up to 60 guests. Ideal for holiday parties, rehearsal dinners and company gatherings.

A large table during dinner
A reserved table for your group during regular dinner service, with the energy of a full dining room.
Custom, start to finish
Tell us about it
Your date, your guests, the feel you're after and what's comfortable to spend. A few taps, no commitment.
We design it
Within 72 hours, our events coordinator sends a proposal with a menu built for your group and your budget, not a one-size package.
You enjoy it
Fine-tune anything you like, confirm, and show up. We handle the menu, the service and the details.
Flavors from around the world, made in Custer
Skogen is a chef-driven kitchen. Chef Joseph and Eliza Raney brought their experience from Southern California to the Black Hills, and every party menu is written for the group in front of us. We are a seed-oil-free kitchen: everything is cooked in butter, tallow, olive oil or avocado oil.
Choose a plated multi-course dinner where everyone is served together, or let guests pick from a short menu selected from our dinner menu.
- Lobster Steam Bunshollandaise, green onions, lemon
- Roasted Foie Graspancake, barrel-aged maple, lingonberry
- Endive Saladshropshire blue, marcona almonds, pear
- Duck Confitwhite bean, yuzu, brussels sprouts
- Filet Mignonpotato au gratin, sauce meunière
- Dimock Butter Cakecaramel, popcorn ice cream
Our menu changes with the seasons. Your proposal is built from what's best when you dine.
Wine & beer
Order from our beer and wine list as you go, add a wine pairing chosen for each course, or bring a special bottle of your own (corkage applies).
Every season
Holiday parties and winter dinners, spring showers and graduations, summer celebrations and rehearsal dinners. Tell us what you're celebrating.
Tuesday–Thursday, November through March
Private dinners on winter weeknights come with special perks. Mention a winter weeknight date and our events coordinator will include them in your proposal.
Tell us what you have in mind
Nothing here is a commitment. The more you share, the better your first proposal will fit.
