The only thing better than the great food is the great hospitality and service. They have great drinks and the best oxtails and cheesy grits, you'll ever find.

Everything was wonderful. We had the taco and jerk chicken plate. The mocktail was great, the chicken was so flavorful. The coconut candied yams were so good with the chilly weather. Highly recommend to anyone and will definitely be back.

Palms 🌴 ... 😋 😋 😋 Let me just get this out of the way Ox tail is hands down my favorite!!!
That being said. I belive iv had everything else on the menu, and its comparable in deliciousness 😋.
Palms crew is welcoming, good vibes, professional and interactive with guests. Honestly some of my favorite people!!
Cant say enough good things about Palms. The owner of this place is one of the most dedicated restaurant owner in town. Iv never met a person that put that much love and energy into making sure people are taken care of.
If you love trying new things and wonna enjoy your lounch hr, dinner with family, Start the night with some unique drinks and food... this is where all those needs are fulfilled 💯. 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟

Palm's is a new favorite of mine in Des Moines. Amazing food, beautiful decor and atmosphere and great service.

Service and Atmosphere was good, but the food was subpar. I agree with one of the reviewers, if you have ever had real Caribbean and West African food, this will be a joke.The sauce was not spicy, it tasted like Lawery’s sweet marinade. The Alfredo jerk pasta tasted microwaved and the Plantains were just okay. Honestly, I could have made a better jerk dish at home, and I’m not even Caribbean.

What a great place! I went here today for lunch for the first time and had the tacos. They were amazing. The service was great and the atmosphere was inviting and cozy. Will definitely be returning.
The vibes are immaculate at this locally owned gem! I tried this place for the first time the other day and we all really enjoyed our meals! The atmosphere is clean and inviting and great music! I had the jerk tacos and the mac and cheese and it was delicious! My friend said the wings are amazing as well as the yams. You should definitely give this place a try!

Big event today and I came to support the community! They were serving the brunch menu: Shrimp and Grits Oxtail and Grits Perk Chicken with Sweet Potato Waffles Everything was delicious, well seasoned, perfectly cooked and visually pleasing. Super crowded and I regret not getting pictures but you can see them here in other reviews. Service was tough at first due to the turnout for the event. Eventually they pulled it together. The restaurant is setup beautifully. A simple yet refined decor with clean lines, natural wood and pops of pale yellow. This day there was a live band...fire! Highly recommend coming and even takeout. I'll be bringing visitors here to put DSMs best food forward. (See what I did there?)
