    Local to Des Moines, we love coming to this place. Speaking Spanish is a plus... My son (mi nino) likes the mini pancakes with just the syrup. I always get the bionico with mango and strawberries. It's the fruit with cream, granola, coconut, but no pasas...no raisins... My wife usually "shares" with me, which means that I get less than half. It's a great place for dessert.

    Mangonada

    First time here and can say the mangonada did not disappoint! Can't wait to come back and try more!!

    Hot outside and craving a RASPADO meaning shaved ice... Save your money and go somewhere else Paid 20 dollars for 3 of them which is not bad but still for a supposedly "raspado" this is ice cubes not shaved ice also lemon syrup and vanilla are not good at ALL

    You want a local place with authentic Mexican treats like home made ice cream, elote, esquites and mangonada? If you're passing through the small city of Des Moines or anywhere near by come down and visit this place. I came in not knowing anything about what they served but they took the time to share and made me want to keep coming back. It was like going to a friend's house and them inviting you to try their food. I felt at home. The treats were amazing. Loved every bite. It's tucked away so many won't see it unless you're actively looking through this area but the locals are all loving it. Nothing but smiling faces coming out of this place. Make the trek down and support this local business. You won't be disappointed.

    UPDATE: 3/24/26... As a Yelp Elite member for 6 years, I…read morepride myself in giving fair reviews, whether good or bad. And with the bad, I strive to be positive on the experience that was good before giving suggestions or letting the owner know what fell short. I'm never out to bash a business. Rather, as an owner, if you pride yourself in customer service, you will take what a sincere Yelp Elite reviewer has to say, step back and see how you can improve. I just read the comments another reviewer posted a few days ago and saw that they were berated as well. I had nothing to gain from giving the review I did and it's unfortunate that you're no longer going to be in business, but there were two other people with me that came to this consensus. With that, I will reply to the unfortunate remarks slammed at me, the reviewer. Let me preface by saying I asked for a pic with the owner before tea service started. If it was said that we had a wonderful and lovely time, it was not by me but one of my friends who, when asked how everything was, couldn't think of anything else to say. Also, I wasn't going to express all of this in front of the owner at the time because I had others with me. So, to rebel and ask me if my mother is still alive and did she teach me to behave like this? Well, all I can say is your reaponse as a business owner is extremely childish and unprofessional. I didn't make the food. I reviewed it and if that means it's not the best review, so be it. It pains me not to give a business owner a good review because that's not what we as Elite members strive for. That said, lashing out is not the answer. At least I have the maturity and diplomacy to put these comments in without getting into a mud fight like you chose to do. Review..... My two girlfriends and I came here for afternoon tea. Since I'm the Yelp reviewer, I asked them for their input and so it was a consensus of the three of us. Here's what went right. It was nice to have a carafe of water at our table, there were beautiful flowers and dyed water to match in the vase, the teacups and saucers were very pretty, the owner was extremely nice. Here's what we thought needed a second look. The sign in the store advertised cheese and fruit for the afternoon tea but it didn't appear. When we asked we were told it didn't come with it but we could get some if we wanted. Please revise the sign as people do notice. Suggest you have a selection of three sandwiches rather than two of each. One was a small croissant filled with egg salad and if we hadn't been told that we thought it might be chicken. The other was a cucumber sandwich which although it's nice to have thin slices of cucumber, these were razor thin. Sort of disappointing that there was so little on a beautiful piece of bread. They scones were nothing special. Perhaps have something inside whether it be cranberry, currant etc. The sweets consisted of a Mexican wedding cake which was rather dry and was there a detection of almond extract? The orange macaron, as beautiful as it was, lacked flavor of orange. I was expecting a nice burst of something but it just wasn't there. The fondant on the petit four was much too thick, and sweet. Whatever fashion the raspberry is used, keep a bit of that tart flavor to offset the sweetness from the fondant. The effort was there, things just felt short.

    What a gift to have a place like this so close to my home! Easy going, friendly and knowledgeable…read morestaff. I grew up in Napa and it's so nice to able to talk wine again! The layout is spacious and comfy with enough seating and a comfortable atmosphere. Des Moines is a real community and MM is a great place to meet up for wine, snacks and I'm dying to try their brunch! I wanted to come here for my birthday but we ran out of time! We'll call it birthday month and I'll,for sure, be there soon!
