    The pork chops were fabulous, service was good, etc. the only downside was that 2 out of 3 filets (ordered medium) were red in the middle instead of pink. We’ve generally had excellent food at this restaurant in Des Moines and many other locations so we are hopeful this was an isolated experience.

    Our second time there and the first time was so much better overall. Food was very disappointing with taste and quality. Service was great but they couldn’t have explained the menu better.
