“Adequate free parking. Convenient to running errands anywhere in West Des Moines. Excellent service. Reasonable price. Food was prettier and better than some other Texas Roadhouses - and the steak was as good as any $$$ restaurant. I'll be back. And they support their Veterans!!“
“Very cool new restaurant space within the upper and lower floor of a mixed residential commercial building. We were seated in the upper floor portion with a larger bar and seating area. The decor is very luxurious and contemporary. Service was A1, which is to be expected for the pricing. Steaks and sides were top notch, done to perfection. Great liquor selection for high end cocktails. Nothing about this place felt like a chain. The experience was unique to this location but keeping the expected quality of food and service.“
“First time dining here. Definitely glad I had made a reservation. There was a line of people who were walk-ins. The waiter we had was extremely courteous and very knowledgeable. Every suggestion he made was very delicious. Definitely going to make plans to go back.“
“Went to 801 Chophouse on our Anniversary. Our tables was full of hearts, reserved and ready as we arrived early. Everything we ordered was the perfect temperature and the flavor was was worth every penny though we didn't find it overly expensive at all. A definite must try.Parking: It was Sunday so so free stree parking.“
“Went here to eat w/ my girlfriends and had a fun time. :)We devoured the bread, they were so soft and fluffy.My 8 oz sirloin steak was okay - I realize that restaurants like this never really cook it the way you want, so why ask? I asked for medium rare, came out well done. Oh well. Still enjoyed my time. We will definitely come back to get the drinks they have! :)Server was very friendly and attentive, didn’t catch his name but everyone was very nice!“
“have been going to Jesse's Ember's for 40+ years. Tonight, showed up at 7:30 PM ordered traditional ribs, which were moist and very tasty at the late hour. We eat out a lot in Des Moines, and these are definitely the best ribs in Des Moines.“
“I love it when we get to choose the type of meat ( I picked Ribeye ) and appetizers like mushrooms, onions, green peppers, shrimp in cast iron - small skillets.Then you go to the bid brick charcoal grill. That is where you cook your own food, plenty of Texas Bread to butter up and grill.That's when it you can get baked beans, baked potatoes, fried potatoes, at the warming table.Great food , give it a try!“
“If you're looking for a reasonably priced meal for your family this is the spot. Friendly staff, excellent specials. The egg rolls are a must. The pizza is served with generous toppings and great crust. This unassuming family owned business really something delightful.Vegetarian options: Small salad bar. Lots of great salads ?. Plenty of veggie toppings for their pizzas.Parking: The parking is a shared lot with a strip mall and grocery store. Always spaces.Kid-friendliness: It's a family restaurant. They have boosters and high chairs. Sturdy chairs and tables. No high tops.“
“Our dinner at John and Nicks was very enjoyable. The food was great and the service superb. You can't ask much more than that our if a restaurant. Lastly the wood paneling and lighting gave it a very warm atmosphere. Would give it a 41/2 star rating.“
“Absolute gem! And local stable, for many years this restaurant has delivered delicious meals and sides. I've eaten in and ordered prime rib for Christmas. Either way never a bad choice. Only negative is that it gets very busy with long wait times.“
“I was very impressed!!! I really enjoyed the privacy curtains. The food was very good cooked perfectly! the service was perfect as well very polite and checked in frequently to be sure everything was good and we had everything we needed. I will be back and recommend to all my friends! If I had 1 complaint I guess I'd say the prices but in reality you get what you pay for all around here. It's worth it to me! I do not recommend this as a restaurant for kids. ☆☆☆☆☆“
“My bartender Shannon was amazing! I dined-in Monday night and she was extremely welcoming and had great drink suggestions. I ordered the Prime Rib, it was super juicy and delectable. Even when it got busy it I was never left waiting. If they keep up service like this I'll be sure to come back again.“
“First off, Phillip was an amazing employee. Took my reservation over the phone. Polite and accommodating. Then took my son and my order and attended to us regularly. The mushroom appetizer was delicious. I had sea bass which was great and took a bite of my son’s ribeye and it was perfect. I can’t wait to go back.“
