Velva is a town in central North Dakota with a population of about 1,256 and a lot of charm and heart.

On the town's Main Street, you'll find an old-west-looking restaurant called the Pioneer Bar and Steakhouse, and it'll welcome you right inside.

The atmosphere of the Pioneer is very homely and comfortable. What you'll notice the most, of course, is the fantastic smell of freshly cooked steaks.

The Pioneer serves up a variety of terrific steaks of many kinds, cooked to your preference and total perfection. They also have burgers, pork, and chicken. As good as those are, the steaks are still where it's at.

Get a juicy sirloin steak or drool-worthy ribeye and it'll come sizzling and smelling fantastic right to your table.

You can get quite the variety of sides with your steak including surf with your turf, such as shrimp, cod, or halibut, and the perfect combination of a potato option, veggies, dinner rolls, and more.

Regular steak not quite your style? Pioneer serves up steaks in all kinds of ways. Try their steak sandwich special for a yummy treat.

What about country fried steak? Yep, Pioneer has that too if you come on the right days when it is on special! A side of mashed potatoes and a good smothering of gravy makes for a perfect hearty meal.

You can even get it skewered if that's what you fancy — just check their daily specials. No matter what day you go, you'll want to be back the very next day to eat there again.

The Pioneer Bar and Steakhouse is located at 8 Main St., Velva, ND 58790.
