“This is my favorite pizza place now. I try to visit them weekly. They have the best pizza around. Their entire menu is great but my personal favorites are the Vodka Roni and the Chicken Parmesan. So good!! They have great daily deals and every one there is so friendly and kind!“

“friendly staff and good pizza“

“The pizza buffet on Fridays is really good. Pizzas coming out left and right. Hot fresh with great toppings. I requested a cherry dessert pizza and it was one of the best I have ever had. Well worth the money.

Parking: Lots of parking in the strip mall.

Kid-friendliness: Has many high chairs and disposable plates.“

“I couldn’t really rate the atmosphere due to it being delivery, but we got a supreme thin crust and Parmesan breadsticks and the food was so good! What they say is true. The pizza IS great and you will LOOOOOOVE their breadsticks. They were perfect. Also, I wanted to mention that our delivery driver gentleman was fantastic! He called to verify our location because GPS was taking him to the wrong city. He was very friendly and professional on the phone and in person! We will definitely order again-especially because of the delivery person.“

“Great Papa John's Pizza Franchise!

Thankful to have a PJs up in Grimes. Pizzas are promptly and accurately made to order and are delicious. Customer service is also top notch with employees like Mason who go above and beyond providing excellent customer service!

Rock on Grimes Papa John's!“

“Absolutely love it. Outstanding pizza. First time having your pizza. Will be having it every time I pass through the area. Thank you for turning out quality food.“

“Amazing pizza. We don't often choose pizza when we go out but this was amazing. Nice snap to the crust, not soggy. Toppings were flavorful and plenty and crust wasn't too big. We had the BBQ Chicken.

Parking: This is in the far back side of the parking lot. Our GPS kept taking us to the front. Ignore it.“

“Don’t judge a book by its cover! Despite its small size, Valley Pub has surprisingly elevated food. Thanks to Alyssa, who has a knack for creating unexpected recipes that you want to recreate at home, this place brings all the charm of your favorite neighborhood bar and combines it with service you’d receive from your favorite Aunt. There are few places that come to mind when I’m looking for a fun night out with the familiarity of home… and Valley Pub is at the top of the list!“

“Last week was my 1st time here, but the staff treated me like an old friend. & the pizza was amaaazing. While waiting for my food, there was a little girl who was dancing & fell (she was alright). The staff were very kind to her & even gave her a big cookie to have for dessert!“

“Elegant design, wonderful wood-fired pizza, great service, who could ask for more?“

“Great atmosphere, food and service.“

“Nice people great pizza very clean“

“This is simply the best pizza i have had since i moved from New York. Simply brilliant. Joy gave my wife and me canoli and they were brilliant. Just fantastic.“

“First I feel like I have to say there is no where to park and the wait is long even on a Wednesday night. Inside is dark and loud and cramped. My ham and bean soup was very good! Stuffed mushroom appetizer was ok but not worth the $10.50 price. My steak was ok-I’ve had way better. Waitress said I should ask for it well done since the cook usually undercooked the steak and it turned out more done than I would have liked it but the waitress never came over to ask… The asparagus had that woody flavor. Potatoes were good. My bf let me try his onion rings and meatball sandwich and both were very good! Cake tasted old… the staff is very nice but looked a little overwhelmed.“

“I gave a rave review 3 years ago. I am going to give a better review today. DoorDash messed up the delivery to my home. The owner ( I believe his name is Mario) made a fresh pizza and personally delivered it to us ! Outstanding customer service.“

“Great pizza and friendly staff!“

“One of the only spots all of kids and all of the adults in our family agree on. It’s kid friendly, tons of menu options, food is consistently great, service is friendly.“

“I agree with my wife. Every time we are in town this is our go to place to eat. Friendly staff and professional management!!“

“The employees are helpful and kind, my kids and I enjoyed the passes this summer and again this winter, with the unlimited pass the prices can't be beat! It's a great place to spend an hour or two and the pizza is actually really good.. we always have a great experience when we visit.“

“I grew up eating The Other Place Pizza at one of the older locations, in Evansdale. I think OP Pizza is the very top of the line of Pizzas, and consider it the gold standard for how a pizza should be. Sure, I like other pies, but OP can’t be beat. Often though, lately, with my high standard, naturally I am disappointed at different Other Place locations if they don’t get it quite right. A little undercooked or over, not enough sauce, served a little too cold, crust not as thick…. Been a while since I’ve had the perfect OP Pizza. Well, today at lunch we went to the Clive location for the first time and ordered at 14” with pepperoni, Canadian bacon, black olives and mushrooms… and it was absolutely PERFECT! They knocked it out of the park! Crust perfect, sauce amount perfect, cooked to perfection, of course the toppings are always top notch. You know it’s good when you’re full and you just want to keep eating. Great job ladies and gentlemen at the Clive location. You made this 40 year old OP Pizza lover very happy today. Lord Bless.“

“DEAR PAPA , Please stop putting ranch cups in your HOT pizza boxes on deliveries . Nobody likes warm spoiled at this point spicy ranch 🥹🥵🌶️ Ps: please read - BEST REFRIGERATED. Thank you kindly.“

“Good fast service on 11-5-23. Great food. Molly was very friendly and polite ,also attractive. Will definitely be back“

“Papa Murphy's has always been one of the best pizza chains there is, and there's nothing more convenient than picking up a pizza after work to throw in the oven while I shower, all ready and hot when I'm refreshed and clean. The taste is unmatched as well, and in a class of its own for chain pizza. The stores are never super pretty, but that isn't the point. The point is the pizza, and it is wonderful. I would happily recommend Pappa Murphy's!

Parking: The strip mall parking lot is very small and shared with other businesses. I would not attempt to visit the store during super busy hours, but otherwise it works.“

“this is a fantastic place!!! food is incredible, atmosphere is awsome, and the owner is top notch. if it is a large group of a date this is the place to go“

“One of the only spots all of kids and all of the adults in our family agree on. It’s kid friendly, tons of menu options, food is consistently great, service is friendly.“

“We are fully staff. Stop by for a fast and friendly service. See you soon. Thank you Rios General Manager“

“Food prepped and cooked properly. Delivered in a timely fashion. The Buffalo sauce wings were... not very well covered in sauce. The bbq and bbq chipotle(?) were fine. Whatever. Broke out some Hot Ones sauce and some Devil's Spit. Just fine. 5 stars.

Vegetarian options: Veggie stuff. Also tasty. Can confirm.

Parking: 6-10 spots.

Wheelchair accessibility: Standard concrete ramp instead of curb. Just fine.“

“Manager Ryan is a mensch! ?? We actually had a great experience despite/because of a problem. There was an issue with our delivery not getting to us on time, we called to check on it, and the manager, Ryan, went above and beyond, totally out of his way, to apologize and make it right (even though the situation was pretty much out of his control). We really appreciated the way it was handled and how Ryan clearly cared about doing things well. Will definitely order here again!“

“Everything here is so good!!“

“My mom and I ordered the bruschetta and the Italian grinder sandwich with fries. This was by far one of our favorite meals we have ever had!! The bruschetta was absolutely perfect and warm with just the right amount of balsamic glaze over the top. And the Italian grinder sandwich is by far the best grinder I have ever tried!! We will definitely be ordering this again soon! Thank you!“

“BEST pizza and wings I have ever had and that alone says enough! The cheese topper pizza is to die for and the wings are beyond amazing. Everytime I promise myself to take a picture I eat over half before i even remember. I can't believe I went this long without knowing this place was this AMAZING! It's worth every dollar EVERY time!“

“Had a great experience here. Food was great, we got two appetizers and two pizzas. We brought our children (2 &5) and they shared our appetizers and pizza and they loved it. I had read previously that someone said it smelled a little like the cigar bar. I did smell that right when I walked it but it was very faint. My husband thought it smelled like a hotel pool. I didn't even notice it after a couple minutes. Someone else has mentioned they wished they had diaper changing stations in the bathrooms. They don't in the women's, but there is also a Family Bathroom that does have a changing station. My only couple complaints is that it seemed like there were only two employees running the whole front of house and so it took us a while to get told to sit wherever we wanted and then to get greated after we did sit. Service was good after that. Also, while everything was great, it is a little pricier. One specialty pizza, one two topping pizza, a spin dip, garlic bread, and two bar drinks (rum & coke and whiskey & coke) was $90. We would go back for sure, it's just seems more like a splurge treat than a place we would be able to afford regularly.

Kid-friendliness: Diaper changing station in family bathroom, kids menu options. No one seemed to mind the kids.“

“My family loves Scornovacca’s. Been going there for years. Great food and great friendly service. One of the best pizzas in town!“

“Blaze Pizza in West Des Moines is a true gem for pizza lovers! The ambiance strikes a perfect balance between modern and cozy, ideal for any dining occasion. What stands out is their 'Build Your Own' pizza option, offering an array of fresh ingredients that cater to all tastes, cooked to perfection in a blazing oven. The staff are notably friendly and helpful, enhancing the overall experience. It's not just a meal, it's a delightful culinary adventure - highly recommended for anyone seeking top-notch pizza in a welcoming setting.“

“My second time here - great ambiance, service, good, & drinks. I’ve purchased items at the connected market each time. Very handy.“

“I saw a Facebook ad for this place. I love trying different ethic foods so I couldn’t resist. I had an Açaí bowl. It was crazy delicious. I will definitely be back to try other menu items… the Sfihas look so good!“

“Love everything about this place!!“
