I am currently in Spain for the second time this year and let me just say that the chocolate and gluten-free churros that I had at Bar Nico in Des Moines, Iowa of all places were the best I've had - far better than any of the chocolate I've ever had in Spain hands down.

I honestly don't know how this place is in business with their incredibly affordable Happy Hour. We nearly got one of everything because it was in the $5-7 range for each dish.

The most celiac friendly restaurant I have been to. Interesting variations on Mexican food that I haven't seen available in other restaurants this style. Mild spice levels for those who would be reluctant to try this style of food. Fresh ideas and flavors for those who are tired of the same old burrito and enchiladas routine.
This bar is a fun spot! I tried their smoked old-fashioned the other night, and it was amazing—really creative and smooth. The place has a cozy, laid-back vibe that makes it easy to just relax, and the staff are super friendly, always joking around and checking in without being overbearing. Every visit so far has been a good time, and I honestly can’t think of a reason not to give it 5 stars.
