I tried Everbowl after my best friend mentioned how much she loved it, and it definitely did not…read moredisappoint. Everything tasted so good, and all the ingredients were fresh. There are several premade bowls you can choose from or you have the option to make your own. I decided to make my own and loved it! For my bases I had coco love, açaí, and the pitaya. The coco love was delicious which surprised me since I am not a coconut fan, but it went so well when you got a bite of everything. The pitaya base was also incredible. The taste is very tropical and fruity. It paired very well with the coco love. My last base was the açaí which was good, but not the best I've had. Next time I would probably try another base. I did also receive a sample of the Blue Majic which I was told was the least popular base. Aesthetically I love that it's blue, but it tastes like nothing. I would not recommend getting it. They have a lengthy list of additional fruits and toppings you can choose from to add to the top of the bowl. I truly don't think you can go wrong! Everything I added was fresh and tasted delish. Go with your taste preferences here! The service was also wonderful. I was a bit overwhelmed by the menu, but the gentleman working was so kind and happy to give me samples and answered any questions I had. I will definitely be back as I am already planning my next order!

This place has the best Açaí bowls! They have great service and a friendly staff. I would recommend…read moreanyone to come here. It is also very clean.

I'm writing this review as I'm sitting inside the cozy Twisted Bean Coffee Company on a comfy…read morecouch, sipping a delicious latte. The first thing I did when I landed in Des Moines was search for a coffee shop. Being from the PNW, I fancy myself as a bit of a coffee snob, so I'm always unsure of what I'll get when I travel. Oddly, most of the coffee shops in Des Moines seem to be street or paid parking only, which is a turnoff for me. So when I found this place with a parking lot and good reviews, I was sold. I drove straight from the airport after a long, early morning flight in desperate need of a caffeine boost. As promised, there is a dedicated parking lot right off the main drag. Inside is surprisingly spacious, with a variety of seating options, including a workspace that it appears you can reserve? I was greeted by the friendly barista and after studying the menu for a bit, I asked her recommend between the Marshmallow Macchiato and the Autumn Bliss (seasonal drink). She said both were really good, but the marshmallow macchiato was sweeter, so I opted for the Autumn Bliss which is a combo of cinnamon, caramel and vanilla. It's a chilly day here, so while I usually get iced, I opted for hot today. My drink was up within a couple minute, I settled into the comfy couch and took my first sip. I was immediately warmed by the cinnamon and rounded out by the caramel and vanilla notes. The best thing is that you can actually still taste the vanilla through the flavoring. My drink was reasonably priced too, especially coming from Las Vegas. Definitely a cute coffee shop to read, work, or socialize while enjoying delicious espresso drinks.

Good coffee- food options looked delicious and lots of great seating for meet ups, private convos…read moreetc. friendly staff

OMG, this place is in such a nice area! They have a huge menu with so many amazing options to…read morechoose from. I ordered the Pit Master Sandwich with a side of French onion soup (you get to choose a side with the sandwich). The sandwich was really good! The bread was buttery and soft, and the homemade croutons in the soup were clearly made from fresh bread. The French onion soup wasn't for me--it kind of tasted like acid reflux to me, so I gave it to my mom. She actually thought it was pretty good. The sandwich had perfectly balanced barbecue sauce and cheese, although I thought the barbecue sauce overpowered the cheese a bit. Next time, I'd probably order it without the cheese. The brisket was good, but I would've preferred a fattier cut because I think it would have been more flavorful. I also wasn't a fan of the Gouda since it didn't melt very well, but the other cheese on the sandwich was delicious. Overall, the food was incredible, and this place is an absolute MUST if you're in the area! I noticed they have around 78,000 DoorDash orders, and after eating here, I can definitely see why. I'll actually be coming back in a few days before I leave my vacation because there are so many other delicious items on the menu that I can't wait to try! Staff were also nice!

Love popping in here. Been going since the beginning of July and I normally pop in once or twice a…read moreweek. I have a gluten allergy so it is so nice to see that they take it seriously. They have a celiac button to warn staff to be extra careful and even have gluten sensitive desserts including: cookies, donuts, scones, and slices of cake everyday. I will say I am disappointed about finding out the breakfast potatoes are not gluten free. I only recently found out and have now figured out that I have been glutening myself off and on since July 3rd. I did have one major screwup a few weeks ago too. I did a pickup order for the quinoa powerbowl. The cook substituted my quinoa for couscous even though my food was marked celiac. Only figured it out after taking a bite. Couscous is apparently new to the fall menu. I really wish the food allergen training was better done in staff training. No person seems to have the same training on the safety and what food allergens are in what food. This was what I thought was a safe place for me which is why I have continued to come. I now take extra caution when I do stop. Today was good. I grabbed a Baja chicken rice bowl, no pepper jack or ranch. They actually had cinnamon roll cake (looked more like coffee cake with frosting on top) which is a first for them, it was really good. My mom grabbed a grilled cheese and her all time favorite carmalita bar.

Tried their açaí bowl with bananas, berries and granola. I went here for the first time early in…read morethe morning and the store was still dirty from the day before: floors, some tables and the front door/windows. I'm not a huge complainer of cleanliness but as someone who's worked in the industry before, the night shift doesn't leave until the place is clean and put back together again. Maybe there were extraordinary circumstances and it's not usually like this. As for the bowl, the açaí was a little too "icy" for me rather than smooth and didn't have a ton of flavor. The granola lacked flavor as well. The price and size is pretty much the going rate despite some other reviews commenting on it being pricey. I recently tried 2 other places in town for comparison and this rates 3rd for me. It's fine. But I'm looking for a skosh more sweetness and smoother texture and a bit of salt to the granola for flavor.

It's not the most is sanitary bowl place? I've been too. It's a little messy, very empty…read more I looked this up on Google before the reviews on Yelp. I see why it has very low ratings. The flavor is not bad in flavor but for the many and it being $10. It's quite expensive, and it melts super quick. I couldn't even leave the parking lot before it started to melt, so I had to eat it right away. Cause it would have never made home.
