Kelli KottkeNovember 17, 2013Excellent service (Mindy is great) and tasty pizza. The crust is really perfect and the sauce has just enough zest! My favorite is the Chinatown and ALL the cake balls.
Michelle ArakakiAugust 27, 2015Pizza and cheese bread!!! They have gluten free options and bottled beer too!
Samantha ZrustOctober 19, 2012Pizza was good. "Free Draw" is only for dinner...unless you put up a stink like I did. Dude was a little rude tho. 2nd best reuben in town (royal mile is the best)
Very good food, nice owner. Refreshing to have a local owned non-chain here in middle of chain-central. The Chinatown pizza is excellent!
Tim WeidemanJuly 15, 2011Best "traditional-style" pizza in the Des Moines area. Fong's is still the overall best, but go here for the classics done right.
Juice MagazineNovember 27, 2013$6.99 for two slices and a soda. Tough to go wrong for lunch there. Read more
This is the best pizza in town. Great service, great food, great atmosphere.
Best pizza in Des Moines. Absolutely love it. Service is great too.
Tuesday night half price pizza after 4 pm. The pizza is delicious just like in Manhattan.
Christina KennedyFebruary 18, 2012Been here several times, and always had top service and delicious pizza.
Kyle SchafrothApril 1, 2011Simple cheese pizza is a solid way to go. Pizzas so big, they gotta be buckled in the backseat.
So very sad when I learned they closed their doors. My favorite taco pizza. Gone forever. 😢
China Town is tops in my book! Make sure they let you decorate with the ranch!!!
- Samantha ZrustOctober 19, 2012Please clarify that the free draw is a dinner special only. Only reason we came here.
50% off on all Pizza's on Tuesday. Great service, good people.
Robert TaylorOctober 19, 2012A disappointing first time here. They wouldn't honor the free draft beer special, claiming it is only for dinner (sign says all day). The taco pizza was burnt, and the dining room was also very cold.
Cristina StodgelApril 16, 2013Pizza has very little to no sauce even when we requested extra sauce on our pizza.
Service has gotten much better and the food has improved as well. The staff is knowledgeable.
- The service is terrible!! You have to get their attention and tell them what you want and when your ready to order. Terrible. But food is acceptable
