“Cece is THE BEST!! On our past two visits, we have had Cece as our server and she is such a joy to have! Our drinks and waters were always full. She was engaging with our children making them feel welcome.We were happy to see we were in her section on our last visit to play golf for my husband’s birthday. Even while in the golf bays, she was accommodating, attentive, and extremely timely with her service. She’s a gem and we will request to be in her section next time we visit!“
“I was there with co-workers and the food is wonderful. I loved every bite. The plating for each dish was full of color and looked like art. I had the Empanadas, my first time, and each bite was savory and full of flavor. I also had the Bistek Lo Pobre and it had such umami and full of flavor. My favorite was the Dessert. I had Mazamorra Morada and I fell in love. I also got a cheesecake - better then New York Cheesecake. Best Meal ever. I am definitely going back. Our server was the best. She was so kind and funny. I recommend this Restaurant to everyone that just wants good food.“
“The wait staff were very friendly and did a great job. Breakfast egg rolls are phenomenal , I would travel back to Des Moines just for them. My better half had the shrimp and grits and couldn't stop raving about them. She also had a habanero and mango mimosa and loved it.I had waffle and turned them in to I believe was the apple strudel. It came with two eggs and two sausages.I didn't care for the waffles it was a little under cooked. Eggs and sausage cooked perfectly.“
“What an experience!! Having been a server in a fine dining restaurant many years ago what stood out to me most at Oak Park, on top of the amazing food and classy aesthetic, was the clockwork like polished service provided by the waiters and sommelier. Maybe it's a post COVID nostalgia for the old days of a well staffed restaurant, but it's been a long time since we've had every need proactively taken care of and plate settings artfully whisked away without thought. Top it off with a great menu and fantastic flavor combinations created by the kitchen team with no detail ignored. Keep up the amazing work!“
“This was a nice, chill retro bar in the downtown area of Des Moines. The service was awesome. Our waitress was quite attentive. They have a large assortment of craft cocktails. I chose to stick with my regular staples, either an old fashioned or their penicillin. I loved the neon signs which I've attached to this review.“
“Noce is always a fun night out, whether in a group or a couples night out. I was looking for so.ething different to do to celebrate Valentine's Day. Valentine's Day hit during the weekday this year so we couldn't celebrate on actual Valentine's Day. I decided to get us tickets for the Max Wellman Valentine's Day event. First off I love that I can see all the upcoming events on the website. Totally easy to order tickets on line. I always stress about having my tickets up when I get somewhere, the front desk just asked my name and took us to our table. The show was great. Max Wellman always puts on a good show. He even had another performer come up and sing a song. The waitress was nice and attentive. I can't wait to go back again.“
“We stopped in on an unexpectedly busy Tuesday evening during their Nice List holiday takeover. The guys working worked their butts off to keep up with the rush and did a great job. We always enjoy the drinks here and especially love their dog friendly patio in the summer!“
“Cozy little place in West Des Moines. Was down from the Twin Cities for some other business and needed a quick lunch. The junction chicken was delicious and the sweet potato fries were some of the best I've ever had. It's a small place and seating is somewhat close together. Service was a bit slow but very friendly and welcoming. I would stop again if I'm in the area.“
“Came across this place out of sheer chance. The breakfast club is an 80s theme diner located in ankeny. Boy was I glad I did I got the eggs Benedict and my husband got the blueberry cream pancakes. Both were absolutely phenomenal. Lots of blueberries on and in the pancakes, and the eggs were poached perfectly on my Eggs Benedict! Would definitely recommend and will definitely be back.Parking: Come early. Lot fills up fast.“
“My wife and I had a great experience. It was evident that the cocktails were made by someone who takes pride in their craft. The service was exceptional. Laid back and easy-going atmosphere for 5pm on a Friday. We didn’t try any of the small plates, but they looked good as they came out of the kitchen.“
“Been going here for 18+ years - great place to sit on the enclosed and (occasionally) heated patio to smoke a cigar.Bartenders are friendly and the owner Bryan is working his a$$ off to make Duck a fun place to hang out.Come check it out and join the family...!“
“This place tops my list for top brunch locations! Absolutely beautiful phenomenal service, delicious food, and a great atmosphere. We easily reserved a table for 10 gals and had a great time! They had wonderful cocktails, I recommend the rosemary cocktail and the salmon and eggs.“
“I am an activity director for a local memory care, and to celebrate St. Patrick's Day, we tried Finn's Pub. They were MORE THAN accomodating! We visited on a Thursday afternoon, and that coming Saturday and Sunday, the owners were making Corned Beef and Cabbage. When they knew we were coming, they whipped up a special batch just for us! It was so kind! The residents loved the drinks, the food, and the atmosphere. Thank you so much for hosting us!“
“Wow the atmosphere here is amazing and the bartender was on point! Don't be afraid to ask for a drink suggestion.if you want a place to chill out, then head to juniper moon. the indoor and outdoor seating is amazing.I tried 4 different specialty bourbon drinks and they were all very unique and interesting.“

“So much fun! You can play for tickets or just for fun. Alcoholic slushies are tasty, I highly recommend the mango flavor! Cocktails are reasonable, and with $50 of play, you get an extra $10; good for 2 ppl to play for 2 hours.Parking: If you get there early, you can find parking right outside.Wheelchair accessibility: Lots of wheelchair accessible games.“
“Well I haven't been here in over 20 years but it hasn't changed one single bit. The dogs are still playing cards and pool on the walls and the booths are the same just a whole lot more worn. Actually the booth had a huge hole in the seat that you could see clear to the floor. The seating was missing tiles and you could see large holes in the ceiling too. It really didn't bother me because you expect this here...it was however the first time I have ever been here with the lights turned up. It definitely needs to have the light on much lower... The only other thing is the back door you have to enter from since the city removed most of the parking. It is so dangerous. The concrete is deteriorating and broken and the steps are very scary. I suspect people fall back there regularly...But over all it brought back fond memories of times long ago!!!“
“Truly special lounge and atmosphere !! Delicious custom cocktails made by a professional friendly knowledgeable gentleman. Wonderful classy experience! Thank you for making us feel so special! Look forward to coming again every time when visiting the area.“
“Incredible brunch spot! French toast & breakfast burrito were phenomenal! As was our Bloody Mary & mimosa! They have a great menu & Bloody Mary or mimosa bar on weekends!But I really wanted to make this post to say how incredible our server Grace was! She is the perfect server that every restaurant/bar hopes to find! Amazing job Grace for being so friendly & attentive and starting our Saturday off with your friendliness & smile! You are killing it! ?“
“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.“
“We visited Wasabi for the first time Friday evening and sat at the bar. All the staff were friendly, but the stand outs were Lexi & Henry - amazing bartenders! We ordered 3 sushi rolls, all were outstanding! The best sushi in town (and we love sushi!) we’re gluten free and they modified the rolls for us, no problem! We're planning our weekly date night here from now on!Dietary restrictions: Gluten free“
“First time there, I had the burger with Guda and bacon, Bacon was thick and caramelized, Burger was cooked exactly as I asked for it. Stake fries were alot thinner and a stake fry and crispy. Wife had the loaded nachos with Chicken, she was very impressed.. We will be back!“
“I think I found me pot o gold! Yes my name is Patrick so if you couldn't tell by the name my Irish roots go all the way back to the Island. I wouldn't call me St. Patrick by any means because as legend says he feared nothing not even death! .. I will say I won't be scared to come back to Kathy's. The bartender was super welcoming, and chatty, He even shook my hand at the end of my visit. He was very attentive to all 10 of us in the bar, all from different walks of life! I was super excited that a guy brought in and set up his daughters girl scout cookies to sell to patrons and yes next thing you know everyone in the bar is sharing a variety of Girl Scout Cookies! Law and Order SVU was on the Tv, William Shatner's Christmas album was on the touch tunes and I enjoyed a lazy Sunday afternoon with a cool crew of folks. The place is cool and has framed photos of famous people with Irish roots.. We ain't just talking Conan, Bono, and Van Morrison we are talking Hitchcock and Detective Benson from Law and Order SVU's mom Jayne Mansfield.. Who I happened to just look up on Wiki to make sure on the spelling of her name and I discovered that Jimi Hendrix played on her music she put out in the 60's... WOW all I can say.. I feel pretty LUCKY to know that and pretty LUCKY to have gone to Kathy's.“
“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!“
“these guys are great ❤️. the drinks are delightful and the bartenders are excellent mixologist. not only do they know their stuff, but they also are great with us, the customers. The pool table is a major plus to this speakeasy. Alleged Lee's has quickly become one of my favorite places to drink in the East Village.“
“the food for all of our table looked amazing, all different menu items. the server Alba C was quite attentive and has a very friendly and caring demeanor. she even brought out a special surprise for the birthday that we were celebrating. it was great!“
“A fun, uniquely decorated place that has great food and friendly service! The Cuban is pretty good, and not heavy on the bread. Thats a positive in my mind- better tasting meats and pickle spear with a tasty mustard that isn’t overwhelming. Has a patio for when the heat’s out, and nice, quaint indoor seating until then. The art is fun to look at. Humidor with cigars available too. Can you find Bigfoot?“
“Food is delicious, the margaritas not so good for Wednesdays Margaritas night? they are weak and tasteless but the food is so scrumptious!!!!!I just ordered online and forgot to order beans and as a one time courtesy they are sending some! I appreciate that because that is all my daughter will eat!Update Baria tacos ? were very dry today and fatty! Kind of a waste of money! Unfortunately probably will never order from here again. ?“
“A friend brought me to Winchester a few weeks ago for the first time. Classic, old fashioned whiskey bar (with a bit of everything.) The atmosphere is phenomenal, the staff are amazing, kind, and quick to help, and the old fashioned I've now had twice, is the best I've had. If you want a smooth drink to sip with friends (or alone, no judgement here), Winchesters is the place to go.“
“I noticed that they had decorations up for Valentine's Day. They have margarita specials. I had the lime margarita which was delicious. And steak fajitas. The service was great and the food came quickly. And they give you chips and salsa as much as you want free of charge.Kid-friendliness: They do have a kids menu.“
“First time here and was surprised by their selection of fun cocktails, too many to choose from! I asked the bartender for her fave off the menu and she recommended the cocktail with Trix cereal. Such a great choice! Super fruity and delish. I ordered 2 and was def feeling it! Overall a good bar for unique cocktails.“
