Editorial Juice Review: Mr. Filet Steakhouse
Mr. Filet Steakhouse
Mike McMullan, 26, Denise Vorm, 33, Michelle Zahn, 28, and Ann DeWitt, 28, eat at Mr. Filet. (Brian Davis/Special to Juice)
Mr. Filet Steakhouse has been around since 1967, but there's a good chance you don't know where it is. The low-key restaurant hidden beneath a parking garage in downtown Des Moines is perfect for a quick steak lunch, and they serve a mean, dirt-cheap breakfast. Mr. Filet is a no-frills kind of place. They know hungry downtown workers are more interested in a good, cheap meal than dining room atmosphere. The place has an old-school feel to it, from the red brick walls behind the counter to the talkative wait staff and cooks.

DM restaurants SHORT LIST

I enjoy a lot of Des Moines restaurants, but here's the cream of the crop in my eyes. Everything from cheap and quick to pricey and fine.

Best restaurants for vegetarians

It's not always easy to be vegetarian in pork-lovin' country, but I've found several places that make it easy to order sans meat.
