   Our waiter Johnathon was super knowledgeable and accommodating to all of our requests. The food was on point and everyone’s meals were delicious. We finished off the evening going down to the speakeasy in the basement. An absolutely wonderful date night out with friends.

   Everything was incredible! We were traveling for an event and just stumbled onto the restaurant, even more surprised to find it was in a hotel. Our only disappointment was in the fact we ate so much trying different things in the menu, we were too full to try the desserts. Definitely coming back next time we are in town!!

   By far one of the best restaurants in Des Moines. Great quality wine list, great service and quite honestly very reasonable prices for the product. Have the bone marrow.

   Liz provided us great service. However, the breakfast we had was subpar. Coffee wasn’t very good and even had a somewhat sour (high acidity?) taste. Got another cup and it tasted the same. The pancakes were ok, but didn’t taste fully cooked. Added poached eggs and they were watery. Bacon was good. Overall, I wouldn’t eat breakfast there again. Disappointed after having an amazing dinner the night before.

    We reserved a table for dinner and asked specifically for “Johnnie” since we had him for our server once before. As the last time, he provided us outstanding service!!! He knows his customers and provided us excellent advice on food and drink selections. He was very responsive to our requests and the food did not disappoint!! Thank you, Johnnie for a very memorable night!!! Sincerely, The Medina’s

    I rarely give a restaurant all 5 stars, but last night’s experience was superb. Tried the bone marrow app for the first time, it was delicious as everything was. Lisa was our server, she could not have been better. Atmosphere was perfect, as were the wine and cocktails. Can’t wait to go back!

    Atmosphere, Service & Food were all fantastic! I love the open fire concept & the chicken dish was SO good even though I hated to get something as boring as chicken - definitely not your average chicken! We started with the bone marrow & the kitchen even subbed in GF bread for us! My husband had the bavette steak & we shared the brussel sprouts - all were excellent!

    When seated we immediately mentioned to our server that we had a concert time that needed to be honored so that he could get our food out on time. Yet, our server insisted on going into an extremely long and unsolicited description of his favorite items on the menu. It took an hour and 10 minutes for our food to arrive. The food arrived cold and we were only left with 25 minutes to have dinner. This forced us to get “to go” boxes and finish the dinner as leftovers.

    Service was fine but needed practice pouring wine out of a bottle (especially a pricy bottle) let’s just say we lost some. The octopus appetizer is amazing!!! If I go back it will be my entree. The French onion soup was not good at all which was disappointing. I got the pork and while the meat and sauce were pretty good the side to it (sweet potatoes) were rack hard and couldn’t enjoy these at all. The salmon was the other entree which was good but came out well after the other plates were served. The sides we got were broccolini, Brussels and carrots. They came out late as well but we’re delicious. I’m undecided on whether or not to visit again - at least not for some time.

    The noise level was high enough that it was difficult to Cary on a conversation at our table. While the server was very pleasant, we had long waits for service. The food was over cooked and one plate needed to be returned. My wife had the pork and it was also over done but she didn’t want to cause a scene and return it. Only had two kinds of tea available for after dinner drinks. Overall, we felt like we had been scammed. When you spend $175 for two ad have a poorly prepared meal, it doesn’t feel good. Won’t be back.

    Three of us went for dinner on a Friday night before a show. First of all our server Kara very attentive and personable. All of the food was very good with the exception of the Sea Bass which we felt lacked flavor. The Grazing Board was A LOT of charcuterie for $24. The French Onion Soup was good as well. The Cab Filet was exceptional!! The Sukna Salmon with coconut curry was also very good. We had the three desserts: Apple Gallete, Sticky Toffee Pudding (not as good as Gordon Ramsey's though still pretty good), and Flourless Chocolate Cake with raspberry sauce. Again, almost everything was very good. We look forward to returning.

    Only reasoning for the 4 stars was because we made reservations for our 1st wedding anniversary, which also happened to be NYE. We made our reservations back in October, then 3-4 days before our reservation we got a call that there would be a set menu instead of their normal menu. We would’ve preferred to have the regular menu since that’s what our reservation was intended for, but we kept the reservation because of such short notice and we couldn’t have found another restaurant to accommodate. Otherwise, food was very good and service is always a 100/10.
