What exactly is this place? You decide…read more We were across the street for dinner and decided we should check this out while we were in town. Holy Smokes! We are glad we did - this was like a carnival ride meets dive bar, meets disco... This place is a lot of adjectives and too many for one review. What I will say is it is crazy and cool! We again sat at the bar where all our senses were being accosted by all the inputs! But it was fun. No place to look that I was not sure what I was seeing! Too much? Nah! It's great. The bartenders (Brian or Ryan and Taz?) Were great and funny - the personalities matched the vibe. No BS just fun and factual! Fast service with well made cocktails. We saw other folks order food and a pretty delicious looking pizza was delivered - not a frozen reheated, but looked fresh and delicious. (Gonna have to try that later) Honestly just check out the pictures - it's too much fun! We will be back for drinks and pizza! Pro tip - Remember where the doors are when you are sober - the decoration make them hard to find! (Front/ Patio and bathrooms) Also - not joking!

This place gives off a happy vibe. There is a young and old crowd. There is usually several people here when I visit, I have only been here after 5:00. There is plenty of craft beer to choose from and a full bar. The food menu is limited and we had the pizza. It was really good, loaded! The table service is limited so expect to go the to bar for refills. This is a must visit if you are in the area. P.S. Good luck finding the bathroom with all the decorations.

Not too crowded so we won a free drink and a $$ prize. Pool table was also free that night, outside in the transformed garage where there was also a pickle bar court I think. It was raining so I couldn't tell. You can also smoke outside if you choose. The bartender was very nice and the drinks were good. It was our lucky night at Notm's. We will visit again.

It was getting to be dinner time, so asked my wife to meet me here for my last stop. Every time we've stopped here, we have been impressed with the quality of the food and tonight was no different. I had already enjoyed some Happy Hour specials at another venue, but my wife hadn't yet eaten dinner. She ordered the Gyro & Fries (see picture) and as you might guess, I did try a couple of bites. We both thought it was a very good gyro and were delighted to see that it is the daily special each day from 11-2, so we will definitely be coming back for lunch some day.

Don't tell him I went without him :) Anyway, I'm glad the wife and I gave it a try. We walked in at 5:30 on a Friday and it was busy. We didn't wait but for a few minutes and had a table. The greeter was very friendly and our server was super nice and pleasant to have as a waiter. His recommendations were spot on. The whole restaurant was hopping busy but operating very smoothly. Not a quiet place, a true sports bar ambiance. The wings were very very good. Maybe some of the better ones I've had here in town. The gyro was fantastic, and huge. Great value. The wife's flatbread was great too. Excellent food all the way around. Prices for very reasonable. Happy hour helps some of the prices for sure, but still a well priced establishment. We are fans of this place and will most certainly be back.

Destination Grille has a lot going for it, but the pricing is undeniably steep--especially for…read moreadult beverages. It's the kind of menu that makes you pause and wonder whether the experience will justify the cost. Another ongoing concern is the dinner rush: wait times can be long, and a call‑ahead or online waitlist option would make a huge difference. I highly recommend making a reservation if you plan to visit during peak hours. What consistently brings us back, though, is the service and the food. Our server, Brody--who we've actually had on every visit--has been exceptional each time. He's attentive, friendly, and always on top of everything. The dishes are consistently impeccable, and Brody's professionalism truly elevates the entire experience. Thank you to Destination Grille and the staff for making each visit enjoyable. We love the seasonal menu and the creative changes. This would easily be a five‑star review if the pricing, noise level, and wait times were more manageable.

I've eaten there twice and after my last experience I am not sure I will return. My lunch…read morecompanion ordered pasta and was pleased with the presentation and flavor. I ordered a club salad and after two bites an insect crawled out of the lettuce. The waiter apologized and ask if I wanted another salad which struck me as an odd question give the current experience. He said that the buy the lettuce from a supplier. I was concerned that lettuce from the same container would be used for a replacement salad and declined as who knows how much bug poop was on the lettuce. He did offer other choices but by that time I was unsure about any replacement. I was not charged for the salad and I did pay for my companion's lunch. I left a tip as it was not the waiter's fault. On my first visit I order a fish sandwich which was quite good. I did notice that the decor could use a good dusting. Again, not the wait staff's fault. The food is ok, a bit over priced, but given that a drive through hamburger, fries and a drink will shoot the best part of $15.00 it would not out of line for the menu and venue.

We went tonight so we could enjoy "Son of a Nutcracker", the community cocktail feature benefitting Des Moines Refugee Support. We were lucky to snag a booth as the bar was otherwise full on a Friday at 5 pm. Moe was an excellent and attentive server. He apologized that they were mixing up another batch of the special cocktail and that it would take about 15 minutes. We ordered some appetizers - jalapeño and peppadew peppers stuffed with cream and goat cheese and the sweet potato chips and house party dip. Both were good and the peppers had happy hour pricing, a bonus. The bar was festively decorated for the holidays and we enjoyed our time out!
