“Casey and Dan saw us pull up and we didn’t realize how late it was but the light clicked off and as we were pulling out they said not to leave they’d get our order, me being pregnant and needing food lol was the best thing ever and for my husbands sake as well(me without food and pregnant=hangry pregnant women) and I definitely would it took it out on him so not only thank you for saving our marriage that night but thanks for the great food and customer service you two deserve well earned raises you don’t see that type of service anymore! Keep up the amazing service and I’ll be sending everyone over to you guys just not as late as we showed up ;) thank you again!Vegetarian options: I didn’t want a salad so not sure , actually who asks for a salad at a fast food place ? Just curiousKid-friendliness: Sonic is always kid friendlyParking: Ton of spots to choose from“
“Went for Sunday lunch. Busy but fast and efficient service. Uncle Denny smash burger was yummy ! Thin smashed Pattie with crispy edges. Soft seedy bun, melty cheese and sweet sauce. Craveable! Good fries. Chili Mac light and flavorful. Definitely on our list of favorites!“
“We came down to zombie burger from the hyvee center after a wrestling tourney. The online waitlist was really easy to get on and only waited a few min for the hostess to come back. I ordered the cremator burger and fries well worth it. The bun was crispy meat done med well and just the right amount of heat.the fries where crunchy and well seasoned. My wife and daughter ordered the zombie burgers and fries as well both satisfactory.Next time I come to Des Moines from Greenbay I will be revisiting..well done.“
“I hosted my husband's 50th birthday party at the Station, and their back room was having the Nightmare on Ingersol, so they had some tables reserved for us. We ended up with more than the tables would hold, and they did an amazing job of getting to people quickly, and made the night great, from the 8 year old, to the birthday boy with some people getting food, and getting drinks to everyone. Many thanks to you!“
“This was. My first time eating here and I can’t wait to go back!! Everything was amazing, the staff, the food, the atmosphere and I don’t know what else to say, except I highly recommend going them a try!!! My brother had the mushroom and Swiss, my sister in law and nephew both had the barbecue bacon cheeseburger and I got a huge tenderloin. I also got my husband a pizza burger to go and he loved it!!! Their fries and onion rings are both really good too ?“
“What a place! So much stuff to see on the walls, but it’s not gimmicky feeling. The music is very 90’s punk on a Monday night which is fantastic, and goes either way the homemade feel of having boasted chicken that is juicy and crispy. There must be 200 beer options including 2 great hop water N/A options. They’re good enough you don’t need a bunch of other N/A choices I’d say! Friendly service. Right location!“
“Our first time and what a great experience! We arrived around 11:30 am , found a spot in the parking lot (big plus!), and got right in, but we made it just in time. It filled up fast!Our server, Adrianna, was fabulous; very friendly (awesome smile), happy to answer some of our questions, and was just overall top notch!The food was incredible especially the Armadillo Eggs with the jalapeño ranch. Supberb!Highly recommend and it's conveniently located right off I-235.“
“I was struggling to find a place for breakfast and found Sorriso and was very impressed. I'm on a protein only diet and they were very accommodating to my request. The service here is excellent and couldn't ask for more. This is where the locals eat if you want amazing service and great food I'd highly recommend you stop in.“
“Genevieve is the literal best server I’ve ever had in my entire life. She was so efficient and knowledgeable about the menu and drinks and so friendly and welcoming while my husband and I were so unfamiliar with the menu. She served us good food and good drinks and we can not wait to come back !! A++++ service !!!“
“Super clean and nice inside, awesome portions, and a lovely staff. I was worried about “cheating on” my usual banh mi place but this is so good! I had the vegetarian and was late picking it up and they were kind enough to rewarm it for me too. Ill definitely be back to try all the great looking dessert and drink options!Vegetarian options: Clearly labeled veggie option that doesn’t just feel like an obligatory menu item. Has separate stickers to know for sure.“
“I really enjoyed this place. I stopped because I had never heard of B Bops, and I had time to kill waiting for my plane. The food was so good I was actually pleasantly surprised. The staff wasn't rude but they weren't pleasant either it was like they were just there.“
“This is undoubtedly the best dining establishment in des moines period. The staff are rop notch professionals and the food is a level above anything else outside 801 Grand. They make all of our special occasions amazing and the oyster selection is better than waterfront even. 6 or 7 different varieties isn't uncommon and all have tasting notes. Tuesday all nite happy hour is to die for. Try a vodka Martini extra dirty w/ Blu cheese olives. A dozen oysters for 24$ and the chefs choice charcuterie. Then a 5$ poutine with the same wine braised beef in the 30$ menu option! But with chunks of iowa farm cheese curds. This place is a solid 6 stars out of 5!! The manager is a sweetheart ❤️ tell her Christopher sent you!Edit: original lazy reviewThe best....come back soon!!!!Vegetarian options: They have vegetables? Try the Brussel sprouts! Lol...better yet don't be a vegetarian lol your missing out on so much joy!Parking: Street parking at meters, no biggie“
“My fiance and i always love coming here. We usually get the sloppy joe sliders. They're cheap and delicious! The staff members are always friendly towards us and we go there almost every time we are in the area! This one is by far my favorite location out of all of “
“The onion rings were light and real easy on the stomach. I also got a chili cheese coney which had onion pickle and mustard on it as well. That combination was new to me but it was surprisingly delicious. I'll be back in for more. Who knows maybe I'll be a regular before long.“
“We celebrated my son’s 9th birthday at the pelican post today and I wish I could leave a 20 star review! The food was amazing, the staff was very friendly, and the service was top notch! Mel and Emma were amazing and we will definitely be back! Thanks for a great meal and great experience!“
“Customer service was unbelievable. The food is a perfect 10 we ordered Chicago dogs and a large fry. Didn't ask for anything that great again. Very busy but very fast service. Can't wait to get my butt back there for the Coney Island dogs and some more Chicago dogs. The menu they have a lot of varieties and I'll be seeing myself there for the next year on and off.“
“I am meet up with friends for lunch. We were a large group, the staff was very accommodating and we had great service. Food was good and came out quickly. Even with two large groups, there at the same time. Restaurant was clean and had a great smell of freshed popped caramel corn. Which you could help yourself too.“
“The best typical American breakfast International House of Pancake...One of the new options is the +55 menu, this is for those of us over 55. The Sampler, which is my favorite, is now in a more suitable version and at a more attractive price.“
“Great service! A manager opened the door for us on the way in!I saw a management going around to the tables after they'd received their food to make sure that everything was good or if they needed anything.Great teamwork, as I always say, employees reflect managements attitude.All of the employees seemed happy and enjoyed their jobs!!Foo;D was awesome“
“I kinda hate to share about this place. Now all of you will go there and I won't get a table. ?The Sunday smashburger on an apple fritter is-to-die for. The only thing that could make it better would be a side of coleslaw, so I could put it on the burger ?Spicy Virgin Bloody Mary was ?Two friends had Biscuits and Gravy and both said it was really good. The pancakes were big and fluffy.“
“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.“
“Went through the drive thru yesterday for lunch for my toddler. The line was crazy for drivers side so we went through passenger side and I let him pass the money out his own window and get his food. He loved it and the guy working the window was amazing with him! He had the biggest smile!“
“B Bops is ALWAYS a good choice! Not just because the food is great. The prices are affordable, the wait is minimal, and their accuracy on your order is second too none. The ranch is a staple for us and our fries. The chili is always great. I'll usually buy 2 of them and put them in the fridge at home to eat later.“
“B-Bops on 73rd in WDM is always, fast, friendly, professional, food is almost always hot &m fresh, & I have yet to have my order wrong, or missing anything in nearly 7 years! Phenomenal job to all the employees & management at this location!!! Congrats & Keep up on your 100% accuracy for myself personally in 7 years! YOU ALL ROCK!“
“The employees at this Chrome Cafe, make you feel like family and they are very courteous while you are there.Kid-friendliness: There are conferable seating and flatscreens to watch shows on in the dining room and in the truckers lounge.Wheelchair accessibility: Someone may need to hold the door but otherwise no problems that I could see.“
“Great food, drinks, and service at a small local bar and grill. Daily specials that can't be missed, including the mushroom and Swiss burger pictured. I had the Cowboy burger and it was tasty. The ranch is top-notch, and what Iowan doesn't love ranch! They also create a few other delicious sauces, including their Uptown sauce that was perfect with the onion rings. My only critique would be that the burgers were a little more well done than I prefer which made them a touch dry. But great quality beef. Staff were attentive and explained all the specials and options. It is a typical bar and grill layout with tables as well as a large wrap around bar.“
“I love Freddy's and have been to several over the midwest. This one is just as good! Maybe not the cleanest store but they're always pretty busy and still get good hot food out at a reasonable speed!Parking: Not a huge lot but usually plenty of places to parkKid-friendliness: They have kids eat free deals and good kids meals“
“The white girl at the window is super nice and welcomes you and serves you great, but the girl, I suppose Hispanic or of Hispanic descent, who delivers the food at the window, was rude and didn't even want to come back to be treated that way. The burgers, fries and all the food in general delicious.“
“Yummy food! Friendly staff. It happened to be karaoke night. Had a great time. Ate lots of the 36th Street Corn Dip before we took a picture. I had the Honey Garlic Flatbread, and my husband had the Bedda Chedda Stuffed Cheeseburger. Everything came out on time and hot! Jamie was very nice.“
“Went through drive-through. If you like fish sandwiches, look no further than Culver’s. The fish batter is light and almost buttery in texture. It sits between a soft bun that is also buttery. The fries are meh, but go with veggies or a salad. Of course, it cost a bit more than McDonalds or BK, but well worth it.“
“First and not the last time I'm going here. Food is fire, staff was amazing, chef is quick and efficient. Tony's sauce is the best!Parking: Couple parking spots but off street parking on 24th st.Kid-friendliness: Definitely kid friendly. Young staff really great!Wheelchair accessibility: No steps easy access“
“The team at Cabaret is friendly, and the food selection is a welcomed plus in comparison to other bar restaurants in Ankeny. They have a great selection of sandwiches, including original and unique tenderloin options I highly recommend! If pizza is your thing, there's a good line of ingredient full and tasty options. Beyond the normal options found everywhere, you'll have more clever and appetizing options at Cabaret. The appetizers are good and sized as expected. Make sure to pair your evening with a cocktail off the menu, this is top notch. The vibe is good, better with a nice evening on the patio. The staff and people make this a place worth visiting if you're out. Very reasonable pricing and a fair amount of seating even in the peak hours.Vegetarian options: Cabaret has a meatless hamburger option that isn't the cheap black bean or compressed soy version. It's always prepared well and served best on a pretzel bun with some Cab fries!“
“GREAT PLACE TO EAT!!! FRIENDLY STAFF And Thank Them Also for Honoring Veterans Day with Free meals for Veterans. I had the Ol Fashioned Cheese burger and fries basket!!! And I Can tell you it was Excellent.Parking: Great Staff Courteous and Friendly. And Clean with Great food.“
“First time visitors, Friday night, 5:30, good crowd but to so full that you don't get good service, waitress was polite and explain items on menu, our drinks never ran out, food came out in a appropriate amount of time.Food was good, lots of tvs to occupy time.“
“Walking into this establishment almost felt like walking into a bar trying to be a restaurant. Very limited seating, so if this place catches on, there will be wait times.We sat in a booth, and the wait was about 7-8 minutes. Our waitress informed us they had a call in, so she was playing bartender to a full bar while waiting tables. My heart felt for her.We had a blue berry mule, which the drink menu is very mule heavy. The star of the show was the Sweet German. A drink that had drizzled chocolate in the glass and the tastiest drink inside.I had the Rahmschnitzel, which is like a tenderloin, only smothered in a gravy. It was delicious, as were the seasoned fries. She had the basic burger and thought it was delicious.I ordered a side of beer cheese and told the waitress, I didn't think it was beer cheese, but she insisted. What I had in my small cup was so thick it took 60 seconds to roll out. Still think it was mustard. Also, I never received my spatzel.I will attribute this to the short staffing, but for a new restaurant, you need to step the game up as your concept as real potential.“
“"I am hopeful that Good Hearts get their proper recognition. I was fortunate enough to walk into this location. I smiled and appeared as jovial as I could. I'm in hell.No family here no friends and most faces I have seen have been quite the unfriendly ugly facial gestures. Nevertheless, today "Gina G" displayed the highest, and most exemplary care during my visit. I am grateful to have you been placed in my path. I still won't cry, lol. Just watery eyes...So in Closing, please all who views this, join me in a Salute emoji to commend these acts of pure, unconditional, care, kindness, and compassion;GiNA G? ?✊?...????. I also would like to show you my gratitude furthermore, a gift. Nothing more than a platonic appreciation for your kindness.

“I love this place! Jory, one of the staff was super quick, efficient, and got me my food faster than I could imagine.Sophie was super friendly, and welcoming. Always ready, made sure my order was on point, and nothing was missing.I appreciated all the service, but those 2 stand out to me whenever I go there to get food.Parking: The parking spaces are slanted and a little confusing, but there is plenty of space to park.Kid-friendliness: They have open seating, and a couple high-chairs available for those with kids.No kids menus, but they do have the equivalent of small enough meals for a kid.“
“The pizza was pretty good. We had deep dish sausage. I loved the crust! The sauce was a bit in the acidic side for me.The service was really good!The atmosphere was fine, but it the front has a weird office when you walk in. The parking isn’t very clear - hobby lobby lot vs street parking off to the side. They could improve by getting more comfortable chairs, repainting (especially in the event room) and hiding TV cords. It was very nice that they let us use that back room for a small group & we overall had a nice experience.Parking: The parking is awkward and not clear. Some parked in the hobby lobby lot and others parked parallel along the side street, which doesn’t have spaces or signage. We weren’t sure if this was allowed.“
“The service was phenomenal!!! It was a special occasion, and we were treated like kings and queens!! We got free balloons, and NATE EVEN PAID FOR SOME OF OUR PIZZA!! Our server, Robin, was super nice and friendly! Overall, The Tavern team made sure this 15th birthday party was a success!!“
“This was my first time here. I ordered a good ole juicy hamburger. It was soooo good! One of my friends bought a pizza with everyone on it that looked and smelled delicious!! He had over half of a pizza to take home. We sat in a booth and had a fabulous waitor who was instantly refilling our drinks, grabbing something we needed before we asked and was hilarious. He kept us laughing the entire time we were there.Parking: They need more handicap parking available.“
“I don't usually leave reviews but truly I must after the incredible experience we just had here. My kids are your typical picky eaters and getting them to eat is usually quite a task. Instead of the usual, both my kids devoured thier burgers, and were even asking if they could get another burger. They are currently talking about how they can't wait to go back. The atmosphere was fun and the staff was just as fun while still being professional. The food...the food was absolutely scrumptious. We will be back soon and greatly appreciate how one stop has made our entire day brighter.“
“On a very humid day, why not pull up and order an ice cream laden Banana Split. The service is quick and easy due to the large print bill board. The total environment is safe, plenty of parking with extra help hoping you enjoy your flavor of the day!“
“Grew up in Ankeny and visited for the first time today. I was very surprised with the clean environment. The staff were friendly, polite and welcoming. Our food came out quick and it was delicious. We had a good lunch. The staff cleared tables quickly and it was apparent they took pride in working there. We will definitely be back!“
“Great customer service! You had 2 products I had requested at another DQ in town and they had no idea what they were :( Your Staff was pleasant and my husband's malt cup was full unlike his experiences at other stores, Keep up the good work!“
“Stopped in for a quick beer and ended up having an entire meal! The build a burger was fantastic and prepared just as I requested, I wouldn’t consider this restaurant like anything else in the mall, it is awesome! Very clean with a courteous staff and the manager (Cole) was really on top of his game. I will definitely be back!“
“4.25* (out of 5)Food: 4* Atmosphere: 4* Value: 5* Service: 4*03/27/2023I've stopped here a few times for Happy Hour on the way home from work and finally took the time for pictures to document the trip tonight. My wife joined me and we each enjoyed a half priced tap while waiting for our food.We ordered the Boneless Chicken Wings in sweet chili sauce (see picture), Bone-In Wings in Buffalo sauce (see picture) and Cheese & Bacon Tots (see picture). While the chicken wings had a little more breading than I would prefer, I liked both the boneless and bone-in - with the flavor of both being great. As to the Cheese & Bacon Tots, while there weren't that many of them - they tasted fantastic (creamy, cheesy and delicious) and were cooked perfectly.This place is definitely worth a stop for good food and value pricing - especially during Happy Hour!If you found this review helpful, please show your appreciation with a Like or a Follow.Photos copyright: happyhourdesmoines.com & thefoodanddrinkguy.com“
“We ordered Club Car for lunch today for our office and I cannot recommend it enough. The food was fantastic. We ordered a bunch of pastas, salads, cheese curbs and the bruschetta dip. Highly highly recommend the pasta dishes and appetizers! All super tasty.“
“What would summer be like without Dairy Queen this little walk up Dairy Queen has been here for a long time and hopefully its air for a long time more me and my daughter and the dog Britain had ice cream the other day it was just a bit of nostalgia.“
“Waitstaff as usual bends over backwards! Reece from Waterloo, has become an extremely popular requested waitress for her uncanning personality and abilities. TY cooks and prep's in the back house for absolutely perfect plate presentations and timely turnaround! We tipped 50%“
“On the day I visited, the young man who took my order at the drive through had such a wonderful personality that I gave him a tip when he took my cash! He made my day. Perfect people-person. He is worth twice the normal fast-food pay. Anyone can have satisfied customers. But loyal customers is what you need. I would drive back to get McD's there even though my town also has one.“
