50 Best Dog Friendly Restaurants Des Moines

“Some of the best Italian cuisine I've had since visiting Italy. The service was exceptional, the specials were creative, balanced, and very well prepared. I wanted to resist desert, but when presented with a smorgasbord of delights to choose from, it is hard to decline. The tirmasu is a must have. Home made and tastes just like the ones I had in Rome. Will definitely be coming back to Porto Vino.“

“Fantastic food, vibes and service. Moored here in our boat and looked forward to going there each day. Thanks“

“Have driven by several times and had a hankering so gave it a shot. wife and I recently started keto, do why stop? Breadless Cheesesteak!!! Brad jumped on the idea and totally rocked it!!!! Thanks so much!!!“

“Sitting in my car shaking and crying, barely able to compose myself to drive right now. Those who frequent Auntie Irene's beware of the owner. She just yelled at me infront of the whole shop, about parking out front. It sent me into a anxiety riddened, ptsd fueled state. There were zero parking stalls when l pulled into the coffee shop. l was grabbing my one coffee and leaving. l would be there for 5 minutes maybe 10 at most. I parked snuggled up along the the flower bed north of the shop, in front of the rhodedendron/north of the deck. On the other side of the flower bed is parking stalls. Just to exactly detail where l was parked. Completely out of anyone's way. There is no posted sign saying "no parking here", nor is it a painted fire lane. If that were the case, of course l wouldn't park there. That's obvious. I was not blocking her drive thru window line or blocking either entrance to her shop. I wasn't in the way of people needing to back out ,since they have to turn the other way to exit. After placing my coffee order, an waiting about 5 minutes at a table, she came out of no where and reprimanded me like a child....She could have politely introduced herself and asked me to move. She never even told me who she was. For all l knew, she was a crazed lady bossing me around. No "hi", "hello" or "how are you?". She just marched up to me without identifying shes the owner and started in on me. I would have had zero problem being asked to move, if she had gone about it in a decent manner, that most "adults" are capable of. Her tone was egregious and severely uncalled for. Over the years, l have heard rumors about an aggressive, petite, blonde haired, older lady named Susie as the owner. That was the only reason l deduced this must be the owner, becuase like l stated she did not tell me who she was at all. But, l had only ever seen her maybe 3 times, in all the years I've been going there. I have never spoken to her or even had an one on one encounter with her. So, for her to treat me, complete stranger, who is paying for a comfortable place to enjoy coffee like this, this is wildly uncalled for. I'm a full grown adult mind you, though lve been told, l look young for my age. Even if l was young, it still would not make this encounter okay at all. l was so taken a back, l couldn't even mutter a reply to her. l ran out of the shop and immediately reparked my car. There were stalls open at this point. l had to smoke a cigarette to calm down before l went back in, it rattled me so badly. l was barely able to muster up the courage to go back in for my coffee, without feeling like l was going to start breaking out into tears, if l saw her or had to encounter her again to get my coffee. I came back in, and by then she was no where to be seen... She wasn't there to thank me for moving and understanding her concern. Nothing, she just disappeared. She ambush disciplined me and disappeared, which made it even weirder and more upsetting...Anyways, when l came back in the staff asked me where l went? l didn't want to tell them what happened, so l pretended like l didn't hear their question and barely got out a stiffled, whimper of a "thank you" to them. Rushing out of the shop before they had a chance to see me upset.. I didn't want them to think they were the reason l was in this clearly emotional state. They didn't do anything wrong, so l wasn't about to complain to them about their own boss.There would be nothing they could do about her actions, if she's in charge, ya know? When l got back to my car, l broke down in tears, past PTSD trauma flooding in. I've had experiences like this with some past elder women bosses, in my younger years. I've been subject to 3 very unprofessional older female boss's. Who, in over the years had treated me completely horribly and were very verbally abusive. One even grabbed my arm so hard she left bruising. All of them traumatizing me, using their p“

“The barista’s are always welcoming and warm. Their lattes are dreamy! The pastries are fantastic!“

“Best Mac n Cheese in the city!“

“Infinite is a false marketing claim however, these soups when available, are fantastic so I've heard. So far I've only heard these soups are not infinite but when they are allegedly infinite that they are delightful. Please tell me do you keep these mystical infinite soup(s) in a bag of holding?“

“Went to Altha’s today for the first time and it did not disappoint! Everyone was so nice and helpful. Grabbed some freshly made gumbo and a couple boudin sausages, absolutely delicious! Thank you and we’ll be back soon!“

“10 stars if there was the option. Top 5 best restaurants I’ve eaten at. Portions are good for price. Love the organic and local sources. Diet friendly. Excellent service and ambiance. Flavor was next level!“

“What a great find! We live in CA but visit relatives frequently. I'm not sure how we've never come across this place before!

Parkway Tavern checks all the boxes — great beer selection, delicious food, good music, and a really cool neighborhood atmosphere. It's tucked right into the middle of a residential neighborhood and feels like a true local spot.

The French dip was excellent. The roast beef was perfectly grilled, flavorful and tender, and the sandwich was really well done.

Bonus - the bathrooms were super clean!

Great food, great beer, ambiance, location and music. Definitely worth going a few miles out of your way!“

“Youngs place was great,- the food was amazing the staff was as if I was invited to there home.. I'd like to thank the girl for the invitation and look forward to having dinner there at least once a week..😎 (Yes it was really that good)“

“Highly recommend! The buffalo chicken salad was the best salad I’ve had in a long time.“

“Review may be subject to change; still on the fence. Love the vibe. Love the location (close to my work). Love the limited food choices. Like the variety of drinks. Liked the Ham, Egg & Cheese Sandwich. Not a big fan of the Biscuits & Gravy, a bit heavy handed with the salt in the gravy but biscuit was great. Maybe the shokupan could sway my mind?“

“Great food, must try the bourbon waffles and the bread puddin“

“the menu is unique and set apart from every other burger restaurant. food is incredible, prices are great, staff is great, restaurant is clean and inviting. 5/5 love this place!“

“This is one of the best places I have eaten period. I have never had 5 star cooking from a fancy chef like Bobby Flay or iron Chef Cat Cora. But I feel like if I did this should be the level of cooking I should get. The buttermilk biscuit and creole chicken with that honey and cream sauce was absolutely AMAZING.. Thank you for suck good food.“

“They have EXCELLENT food! Very rich flavor! I dont ever get sick after their food which means it has very little to no crap in it because I have a very sensitive digestive system. I always eat the whole plate because its delicious! Best Gyro around for suture!“

“YGF MalaTang Southcenter was a great find! I loved being able to pick my own ingredients and customize my bowl. The food was delicious, the portions were good, and the whole meal was really satisfying. Service was friendly and the restaurant had a nice atmosphere. I’d definitely recommend giving it a try!“

“Came to visit town and it was so yummy! Got the ube ice cream and the ube cream puff. 10/10. Service was so kind and helpful!“

“wow, traditional dishes are good, but fusion dishes are better in my opinion. Fusion dishes show the creativity and outside the box thinking. Tried my first sandwich today and will be returning to try others. If you love Binh Mi this is the spot.“

“Best iced coffee white chocolate mocha w/ whip and the yogurt parfait💕💕“

“Cheesesteaks don't get better than this, this place is the real deal and has been for a long long time!“

“Chris and Kevin were amazing! The whole staff was. Everyone was so friendly and gave such wonderful hospitality. The broth and foods were all delicious. I would highly recommend for everyone to come visit. Really loved the experience of both hot pot and bbq. Such a great Birthday dinner!
Thank you so much to everyone at Sizzle Pot!“

“This used to be a regular watering hole for me when I lived in West Seattle years ago. I stopped in recently and though the staff is different, the vibes are still the same. Great place to have pints with friends, play some bar games, or play a board game. Great selection of beer, they'll generally have something to suit your tastes. There is no wait staff, you order at the bar. They have a good system to let you order while in line to keep things moving. They only serve snacks, but you can bring your own food from other restaurants, several options within a short walk.

The only negative is that post COVID, they've converted their parking lot to outdoor seating so parking may be a challenge depending on the time of day.“

“Such a friendly place 🌞🥰😍“

“Delicious food, came out hot and fresh in 7 minutes. Didn't once think I needed ketchup/hot sauce on the taters; they were full of flavor. Super friendly and welcoming staff.“

“It was really good!!!! I feel bad because we all weren't super hungry and accidentally ordered way too much, but we took it home. The service was really great — they were all very nice. The bathroom was also pretty nice according to my friend.“

“Had garlic and asian zhing wings both delicious, crunchy and not too spicy. Perfect! Will be back again to try other items, but have already found my go to wings!!!“

“Best hot dogs in Renton! Great service and always super nice.“

“Amazing tacos here, the meat was very flavorful and I had to use the second corn soft taco to eat all the meat. Very accomindating. The creamy green salsa is the spicy one, a must have for spice lovers. Get the gaucamole on the side, you won't regret it.“

“Thanks for making the new beer Mirror's Edge in collaboration with our Burien Run Club (Burien Run Walk). It is really good! You are always friendly and this is just a great place for us to meet on Thursday nights. I can't recommend this establishment enough! shout out to Blake and to the brewer Michael. You are amazing!“

“Some friends invited us to dinner and from the moment we entered the aromas had our mouths water. Tasty pasta dishes and wonderful desserts. I had the lemon cheesecake and if you like lemon you won’t be disappointed. The seasonal pumpkin cheesecake gave the Cheesecake Factory a run for the money!!“

“This is a hidden gem to South Seattle (West Hill) Community. Street parking is available. Fresh brewed coffee imported coffee from Ethiopia! Never too crowded and IF you’re ever looking for a meeting space, I think the business are able to facilitate.“

“Came here before a USCIS appointment up the street. Chicken banh mi was tasty and felt enormous. Coconut slushy coffee was VERY rich and refreshing. Super cute and fairly priced place. Would recommend to anyone who wants to spend $10 on tasty coffee and sunny outdoor seating instead of overpriced public parking.“

“I love this coffee stand, I’ve probably been here 100 times and I get the same thing every time. Their mocha game is always on point! As a sidenote, I love going to establishments where you can tell the employees enjoy their jobs and are pleasant to be around. I bet the owners are good employers too based on how great the baristas are!“

“Great service, great food. Will be recommending this place and eating here again.“

“A step into the cafe, the atmosphere was just like a trip to Taiwan. After we order and chat , we were invited for free tea tasting. Dylan presented tea ceremony to group of us to make 5 different teas and let us taste each. It was fun and good entertainent. Location is better than one at Bellevue per parking situation. Highly recommend“

“We always get excellent service, like tonight our turquoise wearing (I'm bad w/names) waitress was phenomenal and our food and drinks were excellent, absolutely love the stein burger and fries !“

“My favorite drink place in all of Tukwila! Love coming here for their sugar cane drinks. So refreshing :)“
