Chicken Fried Steak*
Charlie E.

First time here our server was phenomenal she handled the entire restaurant by herself with an amazing look of ease, speeed, and with a nice demeanor to boot. All of our breakfast meals were perfect.

Note senior citizens menu. No nonsense restaurant. We had a late lunch, the daily special fried chicken with 2 sides (9.95, came with drink), and pork tenderloin sandwich with fries added for $1.10. Meals were fine. Ladies next to us were gushing over the patty melt, and a gentleman had afternoon breakfast that looked pretty good.

So many good things to eat! Skillets, club sandwiches, and-- when they have them-- RIBS.

Place was packed on a holiday weekend for lunch. We still got seated pretty quickly. We had good service, good food and a good experience.

Our friends took us there after highly recommending it. We made the 2hr drive for what was to be to…read moredie for food. Sad to say I was disappointed. We ordered two appetizers- river rat balls & brushetta. Both were really good. All four of ordered the Saturday special of prime rib. Came with two sides. The side salad was the bombdotcom with homemade croutons. The American fries were decent but a bit soggy. The prime rib had ZERO seasoning and I paid an upcharge of $1.00 to make it Cajun. Nope... no flavor. Nada. Just a hunk of meat. I did scope out all other food coming from the small kitchen where you could hear the staff having a great time. It looked good so maybe we ordered wrong... but the menu is limited on prime rib days and what I normally would order wasn't available. Side note- I've worked in the restaurant business... not one person in the kitchen had hair nets on. Food was handles with barehands and I saw repeated cross contamination. The prime rib they cut our hunks off of laid on a counter dripping blood onto the floor that then had a towel thrown over it. I didn't feel great about eating our meal after noting all this.

I stopped going to Spring Lake for a few years and just recently went back when I heard they had new owners. I was pleasantly surprised! I had the peel and eat shrimp which were cooked perfectly. My dad had the prime rib, while it did not have the herb crust it used to have back in the day, it was wonderfully seasoned. My husband got the smash burger- which was not smashed at all and was pretty thick. But it was juicy and he loved it. My mom shared the prime rib with my dad but got a plate of American fries that were just like how they used to be and she loved them. The cheese curds were cooked just right. The portion was smaller than in the past, but they are around the same size or a bit larger than the other restaurants around town. Our favorite servers, Nicole, was there! Overall, we're were very happy with our meal and will be back soon!

We stopped in Cabin Coffee on our way out of town for a little pick me up for the 6.5 hour drive…read moreback to the Chicago area. Cabin Coffee is a cozy little western-themed cafe, with a wide variety of breakfast foods, pastries, and baked goods. They have a decent coffee menu as well, with alternative milks such as oat, coconut and almond for an extra 85 cents. The staff was extremely nice, and patient with not only my toddler, but my mother who orders slower than the speed of molasses. I appreciated that our order took some time to pull together, as that typically means your food is being made fresh, not reheated from frozen like a well-known overpriced coffee shop that we are all familiar with. I ordered a classic vanilla late with oat milk, and The Sundance bfast burrito. My mom ordered a large mocha something, The Longhorn burrito, two chocolate scones and my daughter ordered a chocolate chip cookie. The 7 items were only $36! Shocked. The latte was a little sweet, and took me awhile to finish, so if you don't like sweet, definitely tell them to hold off on a pump or two of syrup. The burritos were a good size, and mine kept me full for the entire trip. My daughter loved her crunchy chocolate chip cookie as well. Great vibes all around, and pretty decent coffee.

The Ultimate Stop for Bikes, Beer & Bites…read more After a day of biking, we made it back to El Bait Shop with some friends. This place is a solid choice, whether you're in the mood for the world's biggest selection of tap beers or some fantastic gastropub and comfort food from the lounge next door. We love it here because we can park our bikes in the provided area off the patio and still keep an eye on them. The outdoor service area is semi-shaded and the service is just as good as you'd get inside. As a beer lover, I can tell you the selection is ridiculous and expansive. If you want it, they probably have it, and from four or five different breweries at that! The menu is also loaded, with choices from both El Bait Shop and the High Life Lounge. Today, our food order was as impressive as the beer list. While I can't recall all the beers we had, the food included a Prime Rib Sandwich with tots ($14.99), the Pizza Burger also with tots ($11.99), the Philly Style Pot Roast Sandwich with a side of potato salad, and a massive bowl of Macaroni and Cheese ($11.99). We were starving after our ride, but that didn't change the fact that the food was all delicious, well-prepared, and served by our very attentive waiter, Kyle???, May. No one had any complaints, and the beer was cold and on time! Overall, we love the eclectic vibe of this place. Its downtown location gives you some great views, and more importantly, you're within walking distance of almost everything downtown Des Moines has to offer. This is a go-to spot for me, and I love taking first-time visitors here because it's so unique and the quality of both the service and the food is always on point. Oh, and did I mention the beer selection is completely insane? If you haven't been here yet, you are missing out, and you don't even know it. PRO TIP: Come here, and before you leave, slip over to the High Life Lounge for a throwback moment. Next time, start there and slip over here for a beer!

Wow this is not a dive bar, no matter who calls it that…read more We came in for a bite to eat and a beer while passing through Des Moines based on Yelp reviews.
