“We were out at an outdoor event in Des Moines. I took notice of an ice cream truck that was not familiar to me. Plenty of flavors to choose from and I was served promptly and with a smile. I could not believe that I could get the same homemade , creamery taste from a food truck ! It was amazing and my only regret is that I shared mine . Best I have had in Iowa and worth every penny , especially on a hot Iowa day!”

“my daughter and I stumbled upon this neat place today. she has the classic burger with a side of fresh fruit and she loved it. I had the grinder with a side of amazing tomato bisque soup. we shared some tasty chicken loaded nachos and will definitely be making the 45 minute drive again very soon. our waitress was a lovely lady named Tatum(I cannot remember how your name is spelled,I'm so sorry). she was rocking the bar and taking orders all by herself. she constantly made sure we were doing ok. 10/10🤟”

“This is one of the best places I’ve had the pleasure to eat at here in the DSM area. The whole family has been such a joy to get to know and I’m happy to report I will be a returning customer.”

“Food is good, but I find it extremely gross they don’t wash the baskets the chips go in after every customer. I have watched them just take the wax paper out and throw it on the shelf.”

“We love stopping in for lunch. The vodka sauce is amazing !!
Riley (spelling?) has been such an helpful and attentive server. See you soon girl 😆”

“We were looking at somewhere to grab something to eat later in the evening and this was near our hotel. It's a great space as far as the amount of things you can do here. Arcade, bowling, watching sports, eat,... Although I actually thought there was an escape room because of the name of the place. The food was pretty basic as far as bar/ fried food. But our server was absolutely amazing and she made it an even better experience. I think it's a fairly good location and I think it's a good place to go to if you're looking for a place to relax and watch a game or go on a date, hang out with other couples, friends, families, and do some indoor activities.”

“Everything I have ordered here has been amazing! Best pizza place hands down for my family and I. Thank you for always being cheerful, and courteous!”

“I ordered a hazelnut latte with extra cream and extra caramel drizzle when I tell y’all it was the best coffee I’ve ever had in a long time. I truly mean that I think I’m gonna order this every single time I go in there and I think they put a little bit of cold foam on top. Change my life for the better. I will be coming here from now on.”

“All im gonna say is there was a super nice black lady with bright green hair. Yall need to give her a raise. She was super patient with us. Can't give her enough props. Unfortunately didnt catch her name so I cant say specifically who it was. Other than the star of the show the food was good, no complaints.”

“I have been coming to this location for years, and up until now they haven't impressed me. But, today they did.... the food, the service, they were AMAZING! I hope they keep it up!”

“I was missing items in my bag. I went inside and there was a manager named george. He was extremely helpful courteous and professional. He had a smile on the whole time. And was eager to help me. I cannot say enough nice things about him.”

“Was after the state fair closed and was wanting something good. Got the classic chicken and new ranch tots. They were absolutely cooked to perfection yeah we had to pull up and wait a few minutes extra for the tots but well worth the wait. The sandwiches were fresh and juicy and hot also cooked to perfection. I highly recommend this BK and so does my wife!”

“We were in Des Moines for a soccer tournament and ran across you guys. I was diagnosed with celiac 3 years ago and you guys made hands down the best GF burger and tots I have had in 3 years. That includes better than in n out burger since you guys actually have a bun and they don’t. It’s also the best gf bread I have found in 3 years. I hope to someday make it back again!”

“We had our wedding dinner tonight at Harbinger. Low-key, just the two of us. We were treated with such kindness and respect from everyone, including the chef who made concessions to his tasting menu for my wife’s sugar issues. EVERY. SINGLE. TIME. We visit Harbinger we are blown away by the quality of our dining experience.”

“Your food is the Best in Des Moines!🫶🏼 When do you close for the winter?”

“Thanks Cheese Bar for the great food and accommodating our little one. she loved the kids cheese plate!”

“Quick service, lots of options, and they taste homemade!

Way better than any chain. This would be my got to spot to get donuts for a group if I was around here.”

“Wonderful delivery- they send you all the parts and you put it together to avoid over cooking the noodles or meat! HUGE thing of sides for the pho, too! Absolutely loved their *four inch long* spring rolls, as well. A large pho fed myself, my child, and still had leftovers (rare thing for my family)!”

“This restaurant notified us, after we ordered online for delivery, that they believed our driver took our order. They called to tell us that before we even had a chance to believe there was a problem, and fully communicated what the issue was. They remade our order and it was delivered less than a half hour after they discovered the issue. Superior customer service. Highly recommend.”

“Beautiful roasts, great pour overs, delicious shots and Gibraltars. Best in the state that I’ve found! Keep it up guys. Omg and the scones…perfect.”

“The food here is great and the atmosphere is so fun. Currently, the seasonal menu (winter 2025) has Yo's Wontons which are in an excellent sauce. I also enjoy the bing bing wraps and drunken noodles.”

“We had a wonderful time with our server Jorge. We were celebrating my mother being cancer free today and he helped make it such a special occasion! We tried the mimosa flight (twice) and the chai latte martini. I had a gluten free waffle, which was a little chewy but good and we split a the Farm Boy hash and subbed for extra cheese instead of gravy and it was amazing.

We had so much fun and can't wait to come back!”

“BBQ Meatloaf was delicious and the service was good. Very cool decor.”
