Derek GaskinsOctober 25, 2019Definitely one of the top steak houses in Iowa and the Midwest. Great service, fresh seafood, dry aged steaks and a cocktail selection that’s extensive.
DDDecember 15, 2016Favourite establishment in town. The restaurant is lovely, but I far prefer dining at the bar - the bartenders are all charming and highly skilled shakers.
Yev PusinJanuary 7, 2015The bone-in filet mignon was fantastic (only place in Iowa that serves it). Order the brussels sprouts (add bacon)! Also the souffle takes 40 minutes, but is well worth the wait.
- Sean WalshJune 19, 2013The chocolate soufflé comes with three toppings (chocolate, vanilla and raspberry) and is delicious! Easily can be shared between 3-5 people.
Candy GuhlSeptember 29, 2013I ordered a regular 12oz steak with bone marrow butter on it. It was delicious and the steak was a little charred on the sides! Yum!
Michael SheehanDecember 24, 2018Great spot if you are entertaining clients close to downtown. Walking distance from the Marriott. Great service.
Kelan KeimigFebruary 16, 2014Amazing steaks! Great wait staff! Be prepared to spend a pretty Penny, it's a great place for those once a year type dates.- WilliamAugust 18, 2015A great place when in Des Moines. Excellent wine list. Steaks and seafood are great. Service is superb!
- Kent BachmanMay 26, 2015The Lamb Chops are phenomenal we took our servers advice and tried them without the mint sauce and they were excellent.
Dan HOctober 9, 2014Classic steak house. Best in Des Moines and possibly the Midwest. These guys know how to do it.
Margaux CDecember 28, 2014Everything here is amazing. Be sure to ask for Kyl! He wilk absolutely take care of you.
Shay HJune 17, 2013Ask for Paul. Best server I've ever had, hands down. Oh and the food isn't too bad either.
K BurkeNovember 20, 2011I returned just for the lobster corn chowder. You MUST start your meal with this!
If you like grapefruit, try the Troon martini. So refreshing!

"Seared tuna salad is wonderful. Just a hint of wasabi and a sweet soy combo dressing. The tuna was light and VERY fresh! Must have again."
