Came to Lachele's on a Friday night and I got Mr. World Wide with tots and my hubby got The Big Gym with fries and these smash burgers hit the spot! The burgers were well seasoned, the ratio of patties to bun and toppings was very well-balanced, and the fries and tots were perfectly fried. Extra crispy tots, just the way I like em! Very nostalgic. I also got the IPA on tap and it was refreshing. They also have a wide variety of cane sodas, pop, and sparkling waters.
Service is fast and friendly, as you order up front and they bring the food to you. Going to Lachele's is like stepping into a 50's diner with a modern twist. Very approachable and delicious! Will be back!

Hands down the absolute best burger and fries in Des Moines. Honestly I’d say best I’ve had in my life. Try it, you’ll love it!

The burgers and tots are perfect comfort food and so delicious. Staff has always been friendly and helpful and the food quality has been great and consistent as well. One of my favorite places to grab a burger in DSM and Iowa in general honestly.

The main dish was Uncle Denny burger. While the patty being crispy on the edges was their signature, because of how thin it was smashed, even with just 80 seconds on the griddle, it was left with only burnt taste. Lost a star here. At least the patty was still juicy on the inside. Chili fries was absolutely brilliant. I liked the open kitchen concept, where you could see chefs worked hard preparing food: One prepared sides, one prepared patties, and one assembled burgers.
They had their food truck at my work today!! I got the Boom Boom burger and omg it is now my new favorite burger!!! Soooo awesome!!
My favorite burger/sammich joint in town. Super friendly and an old school diner. Reminds me of George the Chili King
Food here is amazing. Only complaint I have is that they never answer the phone.
I have never had a bad meal here. Get the tots over the fries.
