Dakota Square Mall is a regional shopping center located in Minot, North Dakota, close to Minot Air Force Base. It is a big, solid mall for a smaller town and the only mall in Minot. The mall is very clean and well kept. It features great shopping with anchor stores like JCPenney, Target, and SCHEELS. There is a diverse collection of shopping options, including stores such as American Eagle Outfitters, Barnes & Noble, Bath & Body Works, Kay Jewelers, Old Navy, and Victoria's Secret. Some stores are inside, while others like Ulta and Ross are accessed from outside, with additional shops like HomeGoods and T.J. Maxx in the parking lot. The mall also offers an assortment of entertainment options. These include TILT Studio arcade, AMC Theatres, and a food court in an L-shape area with a variety of restaurants. A Sleep Inn & Suites with an indoor waterpark is located in the mall. The atmosphere is lovely, especially during the holidays when there are Christmas decorations and a mall Santa, though it can get very busy. While there are some empty spaces, walking about the clean mall and interacting with the friendly staff is great. Security is described as pretty cool and chill.
In terms of all the malls I've been to, it's on the smaller side and a tiny bit lacking. In terms of in the state, it's a fairly decent mall with good stuff to look at.

Shockingly this mall is one of the few that doesn’t appear to be on the verge of dying.
There is plenty of space to walk and probably a good area to go in the winter to stretch your legs.
The food court is alright, nothing to write home about.
