best sandwiches in the des moines area. maybe state. awsome meats
If you are a student at Drake, this is where you ordered your pizza from. It was fast, it was good, and it was inexpensive -- all keys to a successful college pizza experience. When I was there, it was delivery or pickup only. Coupons were common in the university newspaper.
The steak that I ordered was quite large (24 oz.) for its price and was grilled perfectly. The salad bar was well-stocked and the produce fresh with 5 or 6 different salad dressings to choose from. The servers were well-groomed and very accomodating and professional. The ambience of the restaurant w...
Chips and tasty salsa served while you wait for your food. The food is very tasty. The service is usually excellant. I;ve never had to wait for more then 15 min.
It always has some kind of speicials out every day. old country buffet has all kinds of food always out. I would recomend it.
The best salad dressing in Des Moines. Beyond that the cavatelli is good, the Jamaican jerk sandwich is really good and it's some of the best pizza you'll find anywhere. It's worth a visit.
Pizza wasn't as good as expected - it also had a topping requested to be left off. Sandwich wasn't that good either. Kids weren't impressed, not a lot for them to do, they got bored easily. Food is overpriced for proportion and isn't that great. I'd recommend Rock Bottom 1st and Raccoon River 2nd = ...
not that great considering paper and news seems to always talk about. lots of other italian restaurants that are better. did i say alot
The food is excellant despite the lousy service. The quesadillas are particularly good but they are heartattacks on a platter! The salsa/sauce is unique and very tasty.
Mediocre quality food, poor service and little variety.
I ate breakfast at the Drake Diner on Sunday, February 15th. We ordered our eggs over easy, and specifically asked the waitress to make sure they did not under cook them so the whites were runny, but rather, make sure they whites were "not" runny. We even asked that if they needed to be ordered as "...
The food was fantastic, but what wait to get it! We were seated immediately, but waited 20 minutes for a server. Our food then sat in the kitchen window for a long time and our watiress was not in sight. We would go back for the food and hope the wait staff will be more effient.

The food tasted fresh (but nothing spectacular) in a clean and well-maintained setting. The service was slow.
I thought the Manhattan Deli was ok. I think there are other deli's in Des Moines that make far superior sandwich. The food is priced ok for the amout that you receive and the taste is average. It has good atmosphere but the food isn't to die for.
It's certainly better than the overpriced slop they serve at Palmer's Deli. Jason's Deli is better in my opinion. It isn't much of a "Deli" really, it's a sandwich shop. The Mama Mia is their best sandwich by far. The staff seem to be the resident people you'd try and avoid when working out at the Y...
very good food, and pleasant staff
Clean environment, can be a bit noisy at times
Average to mediocre Italian food that can be
topped by any number of restaurants in Des Moines and elsewhere. Noah's Ark is much, much better
Italian food. Will not eat at Baratta's again.
Great service, ordinary food.
I've eaten at Centro many times and always had decent service ... but the last time I went with a coworker for lunch, it was ridiculous. We waited 45 minutes for a table (understandable in lunch rush), then waited for the server ... then put our orders in right away. We ordered pizza and salads — ve...
The food wasnt all that bad(or that good). What really suprised me was how my wife was treated when she asked if she could have her sandwich heated up just a little bit more. The sandwich was ice cold in the middle and the person that she asked snapped at her and rolled his eyes. Also,this person wa...
