“This is the first time in a very long time I’ve had exceptional service at this subway. The staff was friendly, my sandwich looks great, and they just all around looked like they loved their jobs which is so refreshing to see at this location. The man making my sandwich was dancing and singing and just made the environment friendlier than I’ve ever experienced. Not sure if it’s helpful, but one man was bald and one had locs, they both were very friendly. This experience gave me hope in this location again :)“
“This is the best donut shop in Des Moines. The donuts are delicious, the staff is always unfailingly friendly and gives my little boys free donut holes. The prices are extremely reasonable. I love this place.Kid-friendliness: They are very kid friendly“
“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 ?“
“Miss Fazolis, the one in Waterloo closed years ago and no one has tried to bring one back. The food was just as good as I remember it. The chicken Alfredo was delicious, just needs a bit more chicken ?.There was at times a smell, like a sewer smell, other than that it was 4 star good, no smell, 5 stars.“
“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.“
“Our food was Outstanding! It was Freshly cooked and the Staff were Polite and Professional!Kid-friendliness: All the kids there were having fun. Books are set on tables for them to read. For the kids , it seemed like it was a Favorite or Special Stop for them!“
“The lobby was clean and the guy who took our order was super friendly.He looked like he was busting his butt running the front and the lobby.The food was awesome and the mozzarella balls are probably a new weakness for me.Kid-friendliness: I loved their coloring table to have kids color and decorate the lobby. Very cute idea and it kept my daughter busy while she wasn't eating.“
“Went with my niece before an appointment. Showed up a little before 9 and Zuella was the cashier. She was very personable and polite. She had a warm feeling about her. We dined in and my niece and I both got the bacon, egg and cheese biscuit. Both sandwiches were fresh and Zuella came out and checked on us. She was very hospitable. Restaurant was clean. What I did appreciate was there was a table of staff all sitting together eating behind us. Whether it was them on break or about to start/ended shift, it was nice to see they were given that time and seemed to be enjoying themselves. Great experience.“
“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.“
“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.“
“If you haven’t tried Bandit Burrito, let me just tell you right now. You are missing out! This is a must try location if you are in the DSM area. It can’t get any better than Bandit Burrito. I have tried them all, and personally not a big fan of Qdoba and Pancheros is ok. But this place here is no comparison, absolutely amazing. 100 percent RECOMMEND!“
“They were packed, and I brought in a group of 6. They were efficient and had our food out to us quickly. They also had someone monitoring the dining area, cleaning tables as soon as they were vacated, so they were ready for the next person.Dietary restrictions: I have food allergies that make eating out difficult at times. They were very accommodating and quick and didn't respond like they had never heard of a person needing a specific made sandwich.Parking: They have a large lot, but they were packed!!! We still found parking easily for the large vehicle. There was plenty of overflow parking around the restaurant if it had all been taken.“
“Blaze Pizza in West Des Moines is a true gem for pizza lovers! The ambiance strikes a perfect balance between modern and cozy, ideal for any dining occasion. What stands out is their 'Build Your Own' pizza option, offering an array of fresh ingredients that cater to all tastes, cooked to perfection in a blazing oven. The staff are notably friendly and helpful, enhancing the overall experience. It's not just a meal, it's a delightful culinary adventure - highly recommended for anyone seeking top-notch pizza in a welcoming setting.“
“I went through the drive through today on my way home. The young man that took my order was very pleasant and courteous. I ordered the Garlic shrimp stuffed shells, side salad and a side order of bread sticks. OH MY GOSH!!! Everything was delicious, fresh and hot! I will definitely be returning ?“
“The only reason I give 4 stars for service is because I think it's silly having workers walking up to vehicles to take orders. I could see if it were every other vehicle, but they don't even use the regular menu at that point, and there ends up being a gap between vehicles.I'm sure this is a corporate move, but it seems like it could use improvement.Otherwise, the food is always great, and I'm typically greeted with a "it's our pleasure" whether authentic or not.“
“The fries are excellent although the last 2 times I went to B-Bop's the burgers seemed like they weren't cooked enough. Not pink but kinda soggy still. A good burger should have a bit of char a good example of this is at burger king. There was not enough sauce on the burger either. But definitely not a bad choice if you are hungry. If you have not tried the chocolate shake you're missing out. It's like what McDonald's used to have but a bit better even.“
“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!“
“My friend invited me to dinner and this was the spot she chose. I really don’t know why more people are not talking about this place. I’ve been back three times and every time has been perfect! The food is so good and you can tell it’s cooked fresh. Everything I’ve tried has wonderful flavor and the staff is friendly!“
“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 cleanest and best subway i have been in across Illinois, Iowa, Nebraska, and Missouri.Fresh veggies, taste good, and great staff!I don't know that i have been in any restaurant as clean as this subway. All the glass was super clean, counters, floor even the baseboard in our booth was clean.The ladies in this subway clearly take pride in what they do, and are definitely good at what they do!“
“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.“
“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.“
“Fun place to take kids! 2 things I'd complain about is there were a few times we went to one of the bars to get a drink and had to wait at least 5 mins for someone to come help us and they are pretty much cashless at all the bars. The lady was kind enough to pay with her card and take our cash though.“

“Great food always served hot and fast. Every crew member was on point and served us so kindly. (A little crowded).Dietary restrictions: Surprisingly I giund out that they do have gluten free and si you can get the naked bird and the French fries have no gluten only the toast.“
“Tried Blaze pizza for the first time. It was a nice pizza place and not too expensive. I thought they were a little light on the pizza toppings,but the pizza tasted good. Four people can eat for about $11 so it won't break the bank.Kid-friendliness: If your kids like pizza, then this is a good place to take them.Parking: The entrance is off the main mall parking lot.“
“Best Chinese in town, great prices, great food!Edit to add: I have been coming here since I was a child. This place is as consistent as it gets. Constantly serving piping hot delicious food. Serving the community with good prices for the value. Same friendly employees around that have been for as long as I can remember. They really deserve more attention than they probably get!“
“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.“
“This was a childhood memory of mine. They don’t really have these anywhere, except kind of the Midwest, Wyoming, Kansas, Minnesota area. We stopped by and got a six pack and a pound. The potatoes oles are good and the tacos I think are better than Taco Bell’s.“
“We arrived at around 5pm, on Friday October 6th. There were two employees working, a young man on the grill and a young woman working the register and assembling pitas. We were greeted promptly and told they’d be right with us and they were. They were both very friendly and professional. Our pitas were fantastic to boot! We’ve had numerous excellent experiences with these same two employees. They are consistently surpassing expectation. Keep them if you can!“
“My wife and I love this place and drive 10 miles to visit it.The staff here are very helpful and attentive.We love the sandwiches here they are betterthan places like Subway.Family anf friends know to get me gift cards for birthdays and Christmas gifts.“
“Wow, I've not been here for a while. When I walked in the front door... I was not prepared for what I was about to see. A complete facelift? Nicely done! It was pleasing to the eye. The employee was pleasant and was not afraid to add extra veggies when requested. Try it out, it's a good sandwich place.“
“A&W is a holdover from the good 'old days. Originally, it was a chain of "Drive-In" restaurants that specialized in root beer and root beer floats. I don't think you can drive-in, order and be served in your car anymore, but I'd be sure and check it out if you"re in the mood for a frosty mug of root beer.“
“Okay, I have to share an experience. I just left a negative review for Taco Bell. About 2 miles from the store.On august 22 I went to taco bell down the street I waited 11 minutes, did not get waited on while everybody at the drive thru was getting waited on (about 8 to 10 people). The manager said after eleven minutes it'd be quicker if you used the kiosk. I am not an employee of taco bell. I generally don't use self check out either.At any rate I drove down the street. Four minutes away walked up to the counter at taco john's. After three minutes I had my food and was out the door. I just want to say a lot of people only leave feedback when they're upset. I am just the opposite. But occasionally I do leave negative feedback.Taco John's your people did a great job. Keep up the good work, thank you.“
“Ordered beefy burrito with no onions,As I watched my food being prepared, onions were added, when the error was noticed, the employee scrapped the onions off and added cheese, he did not add more meat. I will add he was wearing gloves. When I mentioned it, asking what he did. He stated he did out more meat to it, I told him he did not add any meat to it. I watched you.He did make a new burrito as ordered.“
“Look I love the food. Garlic fries and chicken are just fire. But the kicker to this place is the service. Every single time I've been there I've been met with happy friendly people both inside and the drive thru. You can laugh and joke and theye right there with you, even if they ran out of teriyaki sauce that one time.“
“On a day when the wind chill was -40°, and I was stuck walking, they let me come in and warm myself up. The previous 4 businesses including Kum & Go, Dollar General and Walgreens all told me to move along. We need more businesses with a little heart in our world.“
“Their frozen custard concrete desserts are absolutely DELICIOUS !!! The main things I always have to get when we go there are: their French fries - they're crinkle cut & DELICIOUS, as well as a small raspberry/cheesecake concrete mixer !!! For me they are to die for !!! They have pieces of raspberries mixed in it, along with good sized pieces of actual cheesecake as well !!!YOU HAVE GOT TO TRY AT LEAST A concrete MIXER SOMETIME when YOU'RE OUT & NEAR ONE !!!“
“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!“
“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!“
“My husband is a Shaq-a-roni addict, and I have to admit I sneak some when nobody is looking to watch me mess up my low carb diet. It's delicious, and it's huge. He gets several meals out of it. So far, they still have it at a reduced price, too. We have always had it delivered and never had a problem with the delivery time or anything else. The pizza is piping hot on arrival. I should try their wings, eh? OK, I'll stop now. I'm making myself hungry.“
“I forgot to ask the young gentleman's name but I think he is a managerHe and the owners should be very proud of how well he treats customers and much more that he does to make sure everything is like the customer wants or needs it to be; plus he thinks about what else I would like and respectfully asks. I rarely see anyone anywhere that takes customer service to a level that he does. I used to own and operate two businesses and customer service was taken beyond what anyone could imagine but this was decades ago and I counted on Word of Mouth Advertising. When I see anyone that is this amazing or even close to this I let them know and I have let managers, supervisors and owners know even if it involves a phone call or email that I think someone is exceptional at what they do and at times I will say they have an old soul which doesn't always have anything to do with their age and my favorite part is what I call allowing their genuine selves shine through including a sense of humor.I understand that some people have to be professionals but if they are too professional , I say they have too much starch in their collar. I was a little disappointed related to how little is on a sandwich and that what is there doesn't spread to the ends of the buns but I do appreciate the quality and this was when he wasn't there.I asked him about something I needed to be a little different so the bread wouldn't be too crunchy/chewy and he did this to help me and understood that I am not able to chew as well as I used to be able to do and I understand why many people would like the bread to be like what makes it more difficult for me to chew.It is a nice atmosphere there.I ate quickly the last time due to I saw the open and closed hours for the first time and I clean up any mess but when I was struggling to walk with all the shopping bags hanging on my walker to exit the same way I entered the door was locked and I couldn't get anyone's attention so I had to go back across the restaurant, exit and squeeze everything through the vintage revolving door and I got stuck in there for a while.They were busy doing all required to close and there was some other customers that came in about 30 minutes before they close.Not Complaining, Just Explaining.Vegetarian options: I didn't have time to notice.Dietary restrictions: I feel sure they will do the best they can to help with this.I asked for what he had recommended previously and they did have the small disposable container of Balsamic Vinegar dressing to dip the sandwich in. It really adds to it.“

“Love the sandwiches, especially the Mediterranean and Grilled chicken. Gave 4 stars since they do not deliver to my house in WDM; I found this out after ordering online and food never arrived.Vegetarian options: Have Veggie sandwich and can also turn any sandwich into a Veggie one.“
“Tacos were fresh and proportioned perfectly (a lot of places will skimp on meet and cheese, then go overboard on the lettuce. I got a grilled chicken crispy taco. And, a soft shell steak taco. Ordered the potato ole's with light seasoning. Staff was friendly and professional.“
“The staff is always so friendly. They go out of their way to make it a good experience and make sure they get everything correct. Chad G is seriously so friendly and polite.Vegetarian options: Easy to be vegetarian with completely vegetarian options with no modification needed.Dietary restrictions: Easy to modify to be vegan.Parking: Ample parking.Wheelchair accessibility: Wheelchair accessible tables marked.“
“Love Chick-fil-a!!!! I’ve only ever had one time where my order wasn’t ?. They forgot the kids toy….not a big deal…..unless you are 5. Then it’s the end of the world. But more importantly…..when are you opening Toddler Town!?!?????“
“The "Big Game Burger" is absolutely phenomenal ????? 10/10 hands down!!!!Also the manager at the 100th Street location was such an awesome person!! I goofed on an online order and she was more than happy to help!! You don't see that in customer service much anymore sadly.“
“Culver's Culver's Culver's, what could I ever possibly say wrong about this wonderful establishment? The cheese curds are sublime, the malt shakes are divine, and those butter burgers will literally rock your world. The only complaint I will ever have with Culver's, is that there aren't any in the UK. This will always be a must whenever I'm in Ankeny visiting from the UK. If you haven't tried the spiritual awakening that it the Culver's butter burger, then looooord you don't know what you're missing. Cannot recommend highly enough.“
“3 stars cuz they have recently changed their chicken. Still a good taste only half the size. Guess they decided to downgrade like the rest of America. Sorry not being crazy. Over the last 20 yrs though seems everything has gotten smaller and charged more. Unsure on pricing at Long John Silers as I didn't pay the bill.“
“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!“
