“We had a group of 14+ with a mix of kids and adults. Our server was awesome, chill, and completely on her game with our large group! I wish I could recall her name but she was awesome. Can honestly say I haven't had better service for such a large group. Can't forget about the manager who was super responsive to our large group! Great night at the Iowa tap room!For the business we were the large group with a bunch of softball girls and I was wearing a red sweatshirt. We were there on 4-20-24 at 6:30pm“
“We have eaten here years ago while traveling through and they did not disappoint again. My schnitzel first came out burnt but quickly asked for it to be replaced and wow it was amazing. Potatoes were a little cool but salad was great. Husbands knockwurst was fantastic. We had the large pretzel and was perfect! Can you say leftovers!“
“The east side of the river really isn’t dirty anymore. It’s been gentrified with your typical cookie cutter businesses and people. I enjoyed my Saturday afternoon visit. The prices are typical with the area. The bartender was on point and it wasn’t to sticky. For me the ambience wasn’t what I expected. Numerous bachelorette parties and those people that ride that drinking wagon thing came and went. A privileged frat boy sorority girl feel but maybe it was just the day. Without the patio I don’t think I’d bother with the place and I wonder what happens in the winter 3/4s of their seating disappears. I’ll swing in again to enjoy a nice patio evening but maybe on a weekday instead.“
“BRE was phenomenal. We are from Omaha & don't know Des Moines. She handles a big crowd and makes everybody feel comfortable and handled. This is a cute bar with great music. Highly suggest to come here. The amazing bartender and service was just a plus!!! Would come again.“
“The Royal Mile is an "English Pub" that really wants to be an Irish Pub. They should change the name in go all in for the ☘️. I say this as a compliment.Lots of great whiskey options and they know how to pour a great pint of Guinness and the servers have all been friendly.“
“Been here 3x in a three year span. It's great every.single.time. I've come here for food. I've come here for drinks. I've come here for food AND drinks. I've sat at the bar. I've sat at a table. The food is always perfect! The drinks are always perfect! The staff is awesome no matter who you get! Honestly, this is one of my favorite places in DSM!“
“I was looking for a restaurant that wasn't in West Des Moines or Downtown Des Moines to celebrate my wife's birthday... just something different. We were blown away by the service, the environment, the food, and the overall vibe. The place is just fantastic, and we plan to return often.“
“Wait staff was outstanding with little wait time on a very busy night. The pizza was cooked perfectly with good onion rings as a side.The very best part was cold pizza the next day as it took me back to my partying days in the 70s. Wonderful cold!!!“
“We were visiting from out of town in late January. Des Moines had just had a heavy snowfall and the streets were not in great shape so we wanted to find a BBQ restaurant close to our hotel and found Rrackss via the Yelp app. We were there at 6:00 on a Friday night and there were no customers in the restaurant. We thought they might be closed. Parking was limited as they share a small parking lot with other businesses. It was dark, raining hard, and the street in front of the building was very narrow because of the piled up snow and it did not feel like we could park there. The food was delicious, served quickly, and really hit the spot. Another couple came into the restaurant shortly after we did and with only four customers the waiters were able to be very attentive. Come on, Des Moines, support this great restaurant!“
“Love Quinton's for the people and the servers that are always cracking jokes. Go to Trivia here a lot and have enjoyed it every time. If you're looking for a place with great drink deals and some food then this isn't a bad stop at all.“
“This bar is lost in time. I mean this in the most fantastic way. Jukebox by the pool table couple pinball games and amazing bar food. Like classic bar food, not the new age, frozen pizza, and hamburger patties bar food good Ole classic real made bar food.“
