“My family and I recently stopped at Smash Park in Des Moines on a whim for some family fun and food. The atmosphere was laid back and our kids thoroughly enjoyed the outdoor pickle ball courts and the arcade. Food, dessert and drinks were all crowd pleasers! And to go completely over the top, we left our blanket outside and Jerry answered my phone call, went outside to retrieve it from the bench where I left it, and mailed it back to me free of charge. In a world where kindness and customer support are harder and harder to come by, Jerry and Smash Park get a 10/10 from this family!!!”

“This is our first time here and it was amazing! The atmosphere is straight out of the 80s/90s and being a GenX it was awesome! Even the menu was a flash back to the past. The food was phenomenal! Their breakfast potatoes were to die for and I don’t do hash browns usually. Chelsey S was a top of the line server. The only minor complaint was the hostess didn’t know if they served Pepsi or Coke products. Just seemed odd her not knowing. I would hands down recommend this for a breakfast place.”

Zenko Tea

• Delivery

“I'm extremely picky about boba so it can be hard to find boba places that I like, and I thought I had found my favorite boba place... and then I tried Zenko and now other boba will never beat it lol. I'm a very routine-order person so I've only ever tried the black sugar milk tea with boba here, but I lowkey just never bothered trying any of their other drinks simply because this one is so good. Most of my friends who do like several of their drinks also tend to gravitate towards the black sugar milk tea as well, though, so I feel validated in always ordering the same drink over and over :) It's also so cozy and fun inside all the shops--I've been to three of the locations and they all have the same relaxing vibe, lots of plants and soft music.”

The menu thoughtfully blends North and South Indian cuisine, with a strong focus on its tandoor selection. From classic favorites to their “heat stroke” tandoor options for those who enjoy bold flavors, everything is well-balanced and layered rather than overly spicy.

Each dish is crafted with intention, making it easy to host diverse groups for corporate dinners, celebrations, or date nights. During the summer, live dosa and chaat stations add an interactive touch, bringing authentic Delhi-style street flavors into a polished, elegant setting. The beverage program complements the experience beautifully, featuring a strong collection of high-end scotch and a curated wine list that pairs seamlessly with the cuisine. Overall, it’s a sophisticated dining destination that combines authenticity, variety, and a premium atmosphere — ideal for those who appreciate quality across the board.”

I get coffee here all the time and when made right, hands down one of the best. Just ordered a $7 latte from here today and it tastes like watered down milk. I feel like when I ask for half caffeine, some baristas just put half regular shot and no decaf shot, hence watery, bahhhh. Not always the case but can be a bummer when spending $7.”

“Had a pickup order, had the Nashville hot chicken sandwich, food was ready very fast and was one of the best chicken sandwiches I’ve ever had. One small gripe is I wish it had a little more of the hot oil.”

“Our first time at Texas Roadhouse on Mills Civic Parkway.Our children had recommended it to us.Busy at 2pm Sat afternoon.Small wait.First thing I observed was the atmosphere.Very light-hearted and the employees actually seemed to really enjoy their workplace and the vast amount of patrons coming into eat. We were seated and almost immediately our server Maddi was there for our drink/ appetizer orders. There was some Birthday singing being done for various customer's special days.Food was served as soon as salads were done.Very nice salad almost like a mini main course salad.We had steak and barbecue chicken with steak fries and fresh vegetables.The dinner was excellent everything was fresh That was supposed to be fresh and the steaks were excellent done just right!!Everyone thanked us and wished us a good evening.I would recommend this Texas Roadhouse to anyone wishing to have a very good delicious reasonably priced meal.”

“Usually I don’t leave reviews on restaurants (let alone chain restaurants that are doing pretty good), but HAD to talk about Bear! He was our server, and he was so incredibly friendly and nice to talk to. He was super entertaining, and also paid great attention to us. My mom used to server and I’m currently in the industry, so we’re both familiar with how serving tables should be done. Bear was everything beyond exceptional, and provided a warm and welcoming space while we were visiting for work,”

Most places either make the drinks too strong but they taste gross or not strong enough and you don’t get your moneys worth, but this was probably the best mule I’ve ever had. Also the food was delicious and on a Saturday night we had no wait!”

“I was super impressed by our first ever visit last night to Red Robin’s in West Des Moines. I have to give them some props because they were very busy for Veterans Day and they offer a free burger with endless fries to veterans and active service members, which I really appreciate. My grandpas were veterans and are no longer here so it warmed my heart to be around so many every day hero’s and their families enjoying a really delicious meal. The service was so good and very attentive to the entire restaurant. As someone who has worked in food service, they hit every target and beyond it. We were very happy with our burgers, sides and split a shake for dessert so everything was absolutely 10/10 and they make us wanna go back right away 😅❤️”

“I have to give a huge shoutout to QDOBA for some truly exceptional customer service! I recently had an incredible experience with a catering order, and I’ve also consistently had wonderful experiences in person at both Des Moines locations. I have been genuinely blown away by how helpful, kind, accommodating, and happy to serve every team member has been. Great customer service like this doesn’t happen by accident. Hats off to QDOBA, because you must be doing something right when it comes to your management strategy, company culture, and the way you support your teams. It shows in the way your employees interact with customers and in the genuine care they put into providing a great experience. In a time when exceptional customer service can feel harder and harder to find, it deserves to be recognized when a company gets it this right. Thank you to the QDOBA teams in Des Moines for making every interaction such a positive one. You’ve absolutely earned a loyal customer!”

“Love going to the farmers market and getting a pie or 2. Never disappoint, think I've tried all of the different savory pies (yet to try to sweet ones). I'm a Brit so pie's are a taste of home, but the Aussie's have a much bigger pie culture compared to the UK. Love their sausage rolls too, best i've had outside of "Greggs" in the UK. Sadly they don't often have them at the farmers market anymore.”
