“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.”

“I've always loved coming here with friends and having a morning girl date. I have even come here in the past for an evening event with drinks and appetizers, we really enjoy this place. They have good coffee. Good breakfast. The only reason I gave them 4 stars, instead of 5 is because I really wish they would bring back the crumpets. This is one of the very few places we could find that had crumpets on the menu, I really, really wish they would bring them back.”

“⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Big Açaí is hands down one of my favorite spots! The bowls are always fresh, beautifully made, and packed with flavor. I love that they offer so many customizable options so you can build exactly what you’re craving — whether you’re going for something fruity and light or rich and satisfying. The staff is friendly, the service is quick, and everything tastes amazing every time. Highly recommend if you’re looking for something delicious and nutritious!”

“I want to give a shout out to Early Birds restaurant in West Des Moines. Kevin was a fantastic bartender. First time I have been here. The food was amazing. I love the atmosphere. The whole concept is great. The menu… too many things to choose from. I got the Cinnamon roll French toast. Delicious. And the Hashbrown holes delicious. It was great to get an appetizer before my French toast. I have to give a shout out to Kevin as he knows everything on the menu plus he has great suggestions for drinks from the bar! Will deffinately be going back again.”

“Yesterday, my 8 year old granddaughter and my daughter in law came to your restaurant for lunch. My granddaughter is on a strict diet due to health reasons. The employees were so caring and were going out of their way to make her lunch pleasurable! Her mother and I appreciate that so much!!! There are not many restaurants she can go to and feel that there are food options for her! She was smiling the whole time we were there. The employees were very kind to her and I saw care and concern towards my granddaughter. Please thank them for me!”

“The Salt of Hearth (attached to Beerstyles) was the venue we chose for our son's rehearsal dinner. We could not have been happier with the entire process. We met with Andrea and Matthew to go over the details of the dinner. I was impressed with the amount of time they spent with us to make sure they knew what we wanted for the meal and drinks, the atmosphere, and details we never thought about. The space was perfect. The Salt Bistro and Salt Lounge was the perfect space for our group. We set a time with Andrea and Matthew to decorate the venue. They were there to help us set up, provided suggestions for how to best set up the room and gave us ample time to decorate. The designated bar area made it easy for guests to order drinks and mingle until everyone arrived. Keagen made sure the drinks and meal were perfect. The ice cream bar was a big hit. Again, we could not have been happier with Matthew, Andrea and Keagan for making our rehearsal dinner a relaxing carefree night.”

“As you walk in you are immediately greeted by a friendly staff with a welcoming attitude which is also uttered as you leave. My wait staffer — Shaquille - was very professional and delivered my appetizer of dumplings along side a bowl of steam rice. As you circle the grill masters there are a variety of fresh options from proteins, veggies, soups, sauces and desserts. The grill masters grill your select dish to perfection as you circle around to grab your pleasant smelling creation. The atmosphere is trendy suitable for all gatherings to socialize with an upbeat crowd where there is suitable parking with a reasonable budget friendly menu for most diets.”

“Stumbled on this place while just looking for the nearest spot for lunch, and what a happy accident! It just needs a bit more lighting/signage out front, since I almost drove right past it without noticing. But once inside, the ambiance is lovely, cozy and welcoming. I had the chicken pita and it was absolutely delicious. Service was great and the price is very reasonable for the quality. Give them a try, you won’t regret it!”

“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 😅❤️”
