“We came in with our family for the first time yesterday as we moved to Indianola only a couple months ago. The hamburger I had was one of the best I’ve had. Originally from the Des Moines area suburbs, the cheap prices were a shocker. I’ve had $10 hamburgers that didn’t taste half as good as the one I paid half that price for here yesterday. And the peach pie was delicious. You have to have it a la mode as the ice cream just brought out the flavor of the peaches that much more. Our kids wanted gum balls and we didn’t have cash on us but the person that served us and rung us up took two quarters out of the drawer and gave them to our kids. She said if the gum-balls fall on the floor they are hers! Needless to say they didn’t fall on the floor. The machine even jammed up the first time when one of our kids put his quarter in and she gave us another quarter. People are not nearly this nice where we come from because everybody is in such a big hurry. It’s great to see this. We will be back for sure. We definitely appreciate service like this.“
“The food at Traditions is great. Chef Nick runs some great specials from fresh seafood bought from a truck that drives up from the Gulf, to prime rib, to mulberry ice cream made from mulberries picked on-site. You don't even have to be a Club member to go enjoy the food.“
“Stopped in for March madness basketball during happy hour which is 3pm to 6pm. They offer half price appetizers and half price beer. You place your order outside the restaurant. The food however is brought to you. The employee at checkout was very friendly and also polite when she brought our order and we requested more ranch. We ordered three sets boneless bbq wings and one boneless buffalo wings. The staff brought out one of the bbq and the buffalo wings. There were a decent amount of wings and the coating was great! We love the homemade ranch dressing! When our second set of wings were brought out there were literally six wings in eat order. The restaurant was very clean which is always a plus!“
“I have eaten there 3 times. All 3 occasions have more than meet my expectations. The food is cooked perfectly and tantalizing to the taste. The wait staff is fun and engaging. I recommend this place even if you are living in Des Moines... it is worth the drive!“

“We were in the process of moving and decided to try this place for lunch. I'm so glad we did. Amazing food and friendly staff. So far this is definitely my favorite place to eat in town. Will definitely eat here again. Thank you for truly Amazing food and perfect service. Service and food has definitely went down in general, with prices going higher. Here you get great food, service and great prices.“
“I haven't eaten a Maid Rite burger in over 50 years! So I ate 2 of them! These are an Iowa favorite and were a real treat when I lived in Iowa as a kid. Basically they are steamed ground beef on a bun. Ketchup, Mustard and Pickles if you want, I ate mine plain just as I remember doing all those years ago. It's an old fashioned place that serves breakfast, lunch and dinner plus soft drinks and ice cream. I love em and I think everyone should try them!“
“This is a small little resturant. We always get the steak and it's in my opinion the juiciest I have ever eaten. The salad bar is small but it's always fresh. The wait staff are very pleasant and you can tell they enjoy working there.“
