“Dont sleep on Scooters! Quality and selection are way better than the StarBz! Everyone is always so helpful with ordering and super friendly. Prices also beat out SB. Oreo Blender medium $6.15 & its so good you will dream about it! They always give our girls pup cups too and thats huge for our spoiled rotten puppies. The coffee is delish, the service is great. We choose Scooters over every other option in Norwalk, every time.”

“Great pizza Combo, Grinder,& Pepperoni pizza were fabulous. French fries were good. We picked up and took home. 6 customers 3 had never tried and really liked it. Great cs via phone thanks Mike. Everything was ready in 30 min for pick up and was hot when we sat down to eat. Will definately repear our business. When you find great pizza!!!!”

“Wow! That's the first word that comes to mind. For a Friday night, at the dinner rush, it was busy, but not so bad that the wait for a table was too, too long, though we ended up 'cutting the line' by sitting at the bar instead of waiting for a table. There were a few different games on, but my vibe was with the Playlist! I could sing along with nearly every song. The cocktails are fire 🔥🔥 The food is *chef's kiss*. We did encounter a mistake in our order, but they corrected it immediately, with profuse apologies that we didn't need because things happen sometimes. I will DEFINITELY be coming back!”

“I enjoyed my Hot and Sour Soup and Hunan Beef today at China Dragon. Lately, I have been stuck in a rut eating the same takeout Asian food all of the time. I forgot how much I enjoyed having a meal at a good Asian restaurant. China Dragon is a wonderful place to remember how good that can be.”

“Just had the most mouthwatering pepperoni pizza 😋 The crust was perfectly golden and crisp, the cheese was melty and the pepperoni had that perfect sizzle. So flavorful, so cheesy, so absolutely delicious! They’ve got an amazing variety of tasty items on the menu too 🤤something for everyone. Whether you’re a pizza lover or just looking for something comforting and flavorful, this place hits the spot. Will definitely be back soon for another cheesy slice of heaven! 10/10 recommend 🍕🍕🍕”

“It's Taco John's... There's not much more to say.

The food is standard for Taco John's. Some items on the menu are trash but I still eat it. Other items are really good.

I feel the pricing however is way higher than it should be.

I will say, the fried chicken taco was... Not worth trying.”

“The torta was A+ ! First time there, excited to go back and try something else 👍”

“This is the best Jimmy Johns I have ever been to! Our lunch order today was perfect, fresh, and absolutely delicious!! Norwalk is my new Jimmy Johns go to!!!!!”

“I’ve lived in Norwalk for over 10 years, and I was genuinely excited when Starbucks opened in town. We’ve had nothing but great experiences here—friendly staff, clean store, and our orders are always spot on.

Recently, I placed a mobile order that was delayed, and I was in a bit of a rush to get to a doctor’s appointment. I let the manager know as I was leaving, and the team jumped into action. Shout out to Marcus (I believe that was his name)—he made sure my order was prioritized and got me out the door quickly. On top of that, they even offered a gift card to make up for the inconvenience, which was totally unexpected and appreciated.

Mistakes happen—it’s how a team responds that matters, and they handled it perfectly. I’ll continue to be a regular here. Nothing but 5 stars from me!”

“Had to take my son to doctor and it was getting late when we left his office so we stopped at Subway after picking up his prescription at Medicap. Best Subway sandwiches ever. Everything was fresh and tasted great.”

“Great food, Nice employees. Only 4 stars CS due to repeated omission of ketchup and/or sauces from bag. Employees will ask over speaker, sauces are specified but do not get put in bag. Great location otherwise.”

“I go through the drive thru every morning for my 2$ breakfast sandwich. I am always greeted friendly and quickly. They do make little mistake here and there, but if you let them know next time when you go through, they always wanna make it right.
Be patient. Be understanding. The people behind the counter are humans, not robots.”

“very cool vibe and great mix of smooth music. gives a big city vibe of a funky cool space that you want to share with friends”

“The staff is super friendly food is so good!!!”

“Loved thus place. Hard to choose. There are so many things. I got salmon, wild rice and sweet potato. Lovely. My husband got ham and brie on baguette. All good. I'll be back.”

“Thanks Cheese Bar for the great food and accommodating our little one. she loved the kids cheese plate!”

“Fuzzy's crew totally nailed it! Mad props! Their menu's kinda wild, right? Like, tons of choices and I got this food allergy thing, BUT... The cashier was super cool, helped me find something safe to grub on. And the food? Seriously mind-blowing! Fuzzy's DSM? Man, they didn't disappoint! I'm definitely heading back for more!”

“Great burgers some of the best”

“Your food is the Best in Des Moines!🫶🏼 When do you close for the winter?”
