Django is a delightful gem in downtown Des Moines, exuding that cozy, upscale Brasserie vibe! 🍷✨

I loved their seared tuna Niçoise salad - perfectly cooked tuna paired with fresh greens and olives, all drizzled with a zesty vinaigrette. My partner enjoyed the Caesar salad with salmon, but the highlight was definitely the Belgian chocolate custard with malden salt for dessert. Absolutely divine!

While the atmosphere is higher-end, it warmly welcomes everyone, making it perfect for solo diners or groups. A must-try if you're craving authentic French cuisine! Don't miss those crispy Brussels sprouts! 🥬❤️
