New Restaurants in Des Moines

“We had an absolutely phenomenal dinner at Oak Park. Service was perfect; and all the food and cocktails were fantastic. We particularly loved the caviar cones, gnocchi, mushrooms, the filet entree, beet salad, and the duck pasta. I personally really enjoyed the carrot Wellington as well. And we finished with the fancy banana split - very expensive but delicious and has lots of tasty and visually appealing elements.All in all, a very pricey, but fantastic dinner. We will certainly plan to return and try additional items!“

“We had heard how busy the restaurant gets so we went at 1:30pm on a weekday. We ordered quickly and got our food quickly.Very cute building, with parking. Interior is clean and bright, the music was good and the staff was efficient. Bathrooms very clean.The food was good and almost too much of it! I was warned it was expensive but I didn't find it any higher than going to a deli. And we liked ordering at the register and have food brought to us.The chicken was crunchy delicious but too rich for my taste. Might be because I'm accustomed to taking the skin off.I liked it had plenty of veggy sides.We will be back to try the honey butter fries.“

“I love this place so much! This is the best nutrition club in town. They have more than 20 years of experience and you can tell by the way they explain to you every product and its functionality.They helped me regain my health and have helped me so much to stay consistent. They use natural ingredients. Go try the Mega Tea and Combo. If you get to know the owners you know how much they care for their clients and the service they provide.Thank you Gav Nutrition for helping the community to trust and believe in the products.Ohh and one more thing they’re bilingual ? lo mejor de lo mejor.Vegetarian options: Vegetarian/Vegan friendly“

“Gonna be a bit of a long review! For those simply glancing through: My wife and I had an absolutely amazing time, the staff was amazing, and the steak was the best we'd ever had.For those wanting a bit more information:We stumbled upon this location on accident! The wife and I were on our way to a concert at a local venue, and were on the hunt for food in the area. We drove around for no less than 10 - 20 minutes, and were only able to locate either packed restaurants or places that provided little to no interest.Finally we decided to stop at Peace Tree Brewing Co. as it was located right next to the venue (within 2 - 3 minutes). However upon entering, we realized that the location did not sell food. Across the street was Rrackss, and at this point we were fairly desperate to find a location as our event started in the next hour and some change.We got inside, and sat at the bar, and was greeted by the most polite bartender we'd met in a long time. (I feel it necessary to mention that both my Wife and I are from Las Vegas, Nevada. Thus we have a lot of experience in the whole "bar" and "high end restaurant" portion of life at this point.)In no less than 10 minutes, we'd not only met our Bartender for the night, but also an additional server whom took our order (the Bartender was subbing in from the Peace Tree Brewing Co. from across the street as they had a surge of business and were understaffed.), as well as the owner of the establishment. All of which were absurdly kind and outgoing.They provided us with free alcohol, as they'd made extra, didn't charge us for our drink; and proceeded to make literally the best steak I've ever had in my life. Again, from a place where steakhouses are a dime a dozen, this Ribeye was bar none the greatest piece of meat either of us had ever consumed.The environment? Food? Service? 10/10.Price? I didn't even wind up paying for half of my order.... So 11/10Finally: I wasn't sure where to put this in the review, but i feel it important to note!When we got there, they were out of Ribeyes. However the owner pulled down a large portion of the cow, and cut us off our own piece of the meat to facilitate our order. They didn't just shove us off, or ask us to order something else.Again. We felt like they wanted us to be there, and were happy to converse and provide amazing food and drinks.If you guys read this down at Rrackss. Thank you so much from Anthony and Xiiyah. You guys did an amazing job; and we hope you actually gave that gentleman from Peace Tree his tip. ;)Don't think we forgot!“
