Report this commentAte their last night and loved it! Fantastic salmon crusted in sesame seeds and a wonderful cheese plate. The suggested wine was perfect for the meal I had. A lot of food and no room for dessert, though!

Report this commentLOVE the food and atmosphere here. The smoked meats are amazing and the cornbread is always fresh and served with fantastic butter. A great selection of beverages and friendly service. Never had something to eat there that I didn't enjoy.

Django, Hotel Fort Des Moines -
210 10th St. - Des Moines (Downtown)
Report this commentLoved the food. I had mushroom crepes, which were super rich but had an excellent flavor. We had a cheese and meat tray there, too, which was enough for a meal, really. I especially loved the flavor and texture of the chutney they served.

Report this commentLove this place because it is right down the street from our house and the service is good. There's always enough room for playing darts and pool on the week nights.

Billy Joe's Lounge -

Report this commentThis is a great place for Des Moines. We can always catch the movies we didn't have time to see in the theater and then have a night of karaoke after...service is excellent and the karaoke is fun! I love the set up of the theater because you have so much room to have food, beverages...love the popcorn and the mini corndogs, too.

Gyros!
I love everything about gyros! The Des Moines metropolitan area is not filled with Greek restaurants like some larger metro areas, but these are a few of my favorites.
