If you’re looking for an elegant date night this is the place to be.
Reservations in advance is a must.
Cozy quarters inside an old mansion.
Great atmosphere paired with great friendly service.
The food and drinks are top tier and bring the price tag along.
Menu changes monthly I believe and there was not 1 thing on the menu when we went.

Worth every cent! From the moment you walk in to this place, you feel special.
It has a romantic and warm feel with many intimate rooms.
For our anniversary, we were given a champagne toast on the house.
The beet salad had all the right flavors to start off our meal.
The polenta cakes were to die for!! They smelled so delicious when the showed up to the table that I could only muster a half eaten picture.
The gnocchi was worth all of the hype.
Perfect texture with amazing warm crab and flavors that are unlike anything else in Des Moines.
My husband had the house special of the night that included shrimp and andouille ravioli.
Amazing! Our server was very attentive and knowledgeable with great recommendations.
This place does not miss out on a single detailWe will definitely be back to enjoy our meal on the patio next time.

We had a fantastic time here! The gnocchi was absolutely amazing.
The only time I’ve had better gnocchi was in Rome, Italy! We loved the cavatelli too.
Also great wine selection.
We are huge foodies and were completely impressed by the service and quality.
Will definitely be returning.
Perfect date night spot.
Thank you!!
