“Quite possibly the best bbq on the planet!! They had lots of gluten free choices.. all meat and sauces are gluten free. Although they served the food with 4 huge slices of bread which seems unnecessary and is totally cross contamination. The brisket was melt in your mouth amazing! The garlic Parmesan potatoes were very delicious!“

“Los Tres Amigos in Waukee is hands-down one of my favorite local Mexican spots. The atmosphere is always buzzing with energy, and the staff makes you feel like family the moment you walk in. The chips and salsa come out fast (and warm!), and the margaritas? Absolutely on point - especially the mango one! I ordered the carne asada tacos this time, and they were bursting with flavor and grilled to perfection. Portions are generous, prices are reasonable, and everything tastes freshly made. Whether it's a quick lunch or a relaxed dinner with friends, Los Tres Amigos always delivers. Highly recommend if you're in the Waukee area!“

“Unbelievable service and food! I came here for the first time on 01/16/26, and was greeted right away by Ashanti, and ordered a beer while waiting for my pizza to get done (I ordered right when I entered the restaurant, FYI). It was a very pleasant atmosphere, and some of the best service I have ever experienced in a pizza place (or any restaurant for that matter). Ashanti was fabulous and attentive (since I ordered a few beers while waiting). She also made sure that my pizza was done to my liking before I paid. The cook, Eunice, also came out and wondered how I liked the food. When tasting, it was out of this world. I would say that its the best pizza in central Iowa (seriously!). Because of the service from Eunice and Ashanti, I promise to return to this location very soon! I will also spread the word with my other Italian friends about this hidden treasure in Waukee! Thank you Scornovacca's, Ashanti and Eunice! What an experience. :)“
