Baratta's Restaurant and Catering

Had lunch a Barattas today with cousins, was an amazing lunch and Momo was awesome, can't say enough good things.

Used to be my favorite until the calamari vanished from the menu.

The chicken Parmesan is good. Fettuccini Alfredo is not recommended unless you like a more dry version. They do have a wide selection of food, which is why this is a 4 star and not a 3.

We went for Valentine’s Day. Even fully booked, they graciously seated us ahead of our reservation. The waitress was top notch. We started with a drink and some cheese sticks. Our soup and salad followed and then our entrees. We were genuinely impressed with the food, service and atmosphere. The owners were very friendly and checking on everyone and were genuine in their care for every single table. This wasn’t your normal manager comes by and dryly asks you if everything is ok. They actually cared. You can tell it’s ran by family. You just don’t find gems like this anymore. My husband and I drove almost 2 hours to have this valentines dinner and it was worth every bit. I wish I could remember our servers name. Don’t forget to order dessert, you won’t be disappointed. We had the seafood genovese and the ammagio with chicken. Lemon cake and chocolate cake. Again, for a 2 hour drive, we are absolutely pleased and will be back!

We planned a surprise baby shower at my company today. I ordered Barratta’s on DoorDash. My total was 36.50. When the food arrived the pan of Alfredo was no bigger than the size of my hand. I figured they made a mistake so we called Barratta’s. The owner got on the phone and was rude and dismissive. Extremely unprofessional and down right nasty. It was an embarrassment since everyone in the office heard him. He yelled that if we had placed an order with them directly instead of DoorDash we would’ve got a family pan for the same price. My co workers and I will NEVER EVER order from them again. DoorDash wasn’t the issue, the price wasn’t the issue. The customer service we expected was not there when we called this restaurant. To the owner, you need to set a better example. Your response was arrogant and disrespectful at the least.

Delicious Italian foods, both traditional and innovative. Went out to lunch and had the special of the day: chicken formation over fettuccine Alfredo! So tasty! Came with side salad and warm sourdough bread. Generous portions, had to take 1/2 home. Prices are reasonable.

Ordered steak de burgo medium and it came very well done. The bartender wasn’t able to make a very simple three ingredient cocktail. Would not recommend this restaurant.

Clean, great service and excellent food. A hidden gem of the Des Moines area. A truly Italian selection on the majority of the menu. Don't miss it.

Exceptional service and food quality. Fettuccine Alfredo with chicken amaggio was outstanding. Pomegranate martini was perfect! Highly recommend this foodie paradise.

Food was good, service was good, didn't realize they had different menus for different times of the day. Disappointed couldn't get something from other menu. That others had recommended due to time of day.

Terrible service and un-authentic italian food. The chicken breast was dry with no sauce to add any moisture.
