Restaurants near Baymont Inn and Suites Des Moines Airport

Fantastic experience, great wait staff and accommodated my request for a quiet booth.

I dined with three friends on a Wednesday. Our meals were outstanding, as was the service. We were able to find beverages we liked, although they offered just two types of beer and no wine. (Perhaps it is a financial decision.) Cocktails are available. The food was beautifully prepared and presented, as well as being delicious. I especially enjoyed the chicha morada, a traditional purple (!) drink. The taste is similar to cold spiced cider and it was very refreshing.

The large selection of vegetarian options is so great. Service might have been considered slow, but allowed for uninterrupted conversation.

I have been to the new location a handful of times and it’s an amazing experience. The cocktails are spectacular and the food is delicious. The only downfall I have is how difficult it is to get into now. For two people on a weekday, you need a reservation. If you don’t have a reservation, they make you feel less than desirable. If you do have a reservation, they tell you that you need to be out by a certain time. The old location was comfortable, welcoming and reliable. I won’t stop coming because the drinks and food are fabulous, however I hope that they get their occupancy under control.

Ordered the squash salad with grilled chicken. Very fresh lettuce. Excellent flavor and service was fast. Definitely will go back to try several other items on the menu.
