Visited on a Friday afternoon and it was just in time for a snow storm. Stocked up on some meats and some Christmas treats as gifts. Everyone was helpful and knowledgeable of all that we wanted. Great shop with so many options for all sorts of meat. Even some baked goods were sold there. We needed finding out we were helped by the owner and felt it was a great visit. Spent $70.xx for our goods. Will be back for sure

Great bbq to be had at Kue'd Smokehouse!…read more I am a big Smokey D's fan but my cousins said this place was just as good and I have to say I'm a convert. Some things were better, others not as good, but good overall. Great brisket and burnt ends were ok but a little light on the smoke to be honest. The pulled pork was dry in some places and nice and juicy in others. The smoked Mac and cheese is mighty tasty and not too bitter from the smoke. Glad we tried the redneck nachos. They are made on house made potato chips and are a very unique treat. Also great bbq sauce! The original and spicy have excellent flavor. Glad to have another bbq spot in the DSM area to go to!

Best. Customer. Service. Ever!…read more My partner made reservations back in January for Valentine's Day but upon arriving and checking in, his name wasn't on the reservation list. Instead of turning us away, they did everything they could to seat us, despite it being a busy Valentine's Day evening. All the staff were so kind and apologized to us profusely for the inconvenience/situation. We were given such great treatment and on top of everything, 2 free desserts! We were treated with such care and empathy, making the dining experience that much better. We had multiple servers and hosts checking on us constantly to ensure that we were ok. At the end of our meal after we paid, the server came back and provided us with 2 $10 gift cards for when we come back, which we will! I highly recommend Rube's not just for the food, but for the staff! This was the best dining experience I've ever had and will absolutely come back! Thank you Rube's!!

Especially when I got a $55 bacon wrapped Ribeye zero value in the shrimp. But my husband does not eat steak. So the options were Tuna, Pork Chicken Breast or the Shrimp. You cook the meal yourself. For me it was fine. For our friends I think they were a bit concerned about ruining a $50 steak. There should be some cheat sheet. Temp needed for different cooks of Steak or something. I expected a wedge salad. What we got because of our group size was a bowl of salad. The final feed back was about the service. My soda sat empty until the server Deb started picking up plates. Then she arrived and asked for all of us to settle our checks. There were 5 tickets at our table. She took 2 of the checks and credit cards back with her when she delivered the checks. She returned again and said she was trying to resolve an issue with tickets. Stood at the table explaining we had 5 tickets and she had only received 4 of the 5 back. One of the people at our table tried to explained she had already taken two of the tickets in the three she had in her hand, made five. Deb rudely shut him down telling him she knew what she was talking about. She never apologized or addressed her behavior. Mind you all this occurred after we had all tipped her and settled our bills. The service was less than expected for a dinner of $50 person. Customer service was really disappointing.

For this who know what Aldi offers, this location is great. It's newer, clean, and usually always…read morepretty well stocked. The produce is the primary reason we visit here. It seems to last longer than that of other grocers in the area. Chicken prices are the cheapest in town, and the dairy is pretty well priced too. If you aren't familiar with what Aldi offers, don't go in there thinking you can get everything you get at HyVee or Fareway. This is a no frills grocery store with basic items. You still have to deposit a quarter for the use of a cart, which you will get back, and you have to pay for bags to put your groceries in, but it's all good. If you know what Aldi has, then you know. If you don't know, that's fine. But don't complain about that they do/don't have. They have what they have a good prices. If it's not for you, go somewhere else.

Aldi has just about everything I need and for a good price. That translates into excellent value…read more Keep up the good work Aldi.

A+ in every category! Phenomenal! BEAUTIFUL setting. Beautiful food. Beautiful hostess…read more Unique one of a kind place that is found nowhere else around here. The flavors have depth and originality. Family owned and operated- you may see some of the family picking fresh greens, or a toddler walking around holding a wooden spoon. You can feel the healing energy of the organic food as it nurtures you. It's made with love and care. The ambience is healing as well: trees, plants, nature..: It's a favorite and deservedly so. I highly recommend this treat of a place.

When we finally were going to Des Moines during when they're open, we made an effort to try the restaurant. Stopping was definitely worth it! They have a set menu based on the produce that's available to harvest, but the way the created the recipes around the produce and chicken was really delicious! They service here was super friendly and fast. The son of the people who started this place explained all about the farm and their food. I have already recommended this place to people, it is so good!

Sign me up! I can kill a couple hours in Waukee. I swung into the Wine & Spirits department and picked up a ticket about 400 PM. The raffle was at 600 PM. Between 400 and 600 PM I grabbed some Hy-Chi and ran a couple other errands. Quite the whiskey selection at this location! The raffle kicked off right at 600 PM and was very well run. The staff was polite and did an awesome job. It was great to get to network and spend some time with others with similar interests. The bourbon community is just that...a community. And walking away with a bottle Eagle Rare at MSRP was pretty cool too...!

After 1/2-dozen trips to this store, I no longer bother except to buy Verena St whole coffee beans,…read moreas they're $4-6 cheaper than at HyVee & Target doesn't carry that brand. Today, they're currently on sale at Fareway for $19 (nope, not near the expiration date) & are $25 at HV. They carry a bit of everything, but nothing I really need. Like Aldi's, if you eat canned, frozen, junk, packaged or processed food, you'll find what you need here, but all those items will be cheaper at Target. Selections/brands are also smaller than other outlets. I really came here as people raved about the quality of meat dept. My personal experience is that whenever I buy pricey beef here, it's always dry or smells as if it's about to go bad. Every single time. Now that food is much more expensive, my trip last wk will be my last... $25 steak that had crunchy, dried edges, all around the entire steak. It was gross, Meat quality is better at HyVee, but never buy their on-sale meats which all smell bad. They shouldn't be allowed to sell those, but that's another review. Produce is hit or miss. HV has better quality, usually. I'll still buy coffee beans here. That's all. I may try their newer store in Clive which is 6-mi away... this one is 1/2-mi from me, so that's too bad. 2* out of 5. -2* for poor quality meat & pricey produce -1* for lack of options. I never find what I need here & still have to go to HV or Target.
