Flying Mango is a delightful Southern gem in Des Moines! 🌟

I recently indulged in their BBQ Chopped Brisket Sandwich with Cowboy Beans, and it was phenomenal - tender brisket with just the right amount of smoky BBQ sauce. The side salad with mixed greens and apples was a refreshing complement.

The cozy atmosphere, complete with friendly service from Justin, made our visit a pleasure. And don't skip the chocolate cake - it's a heavenly treat with a unique twist! 🍰 Make sure to call ahead for reservations. I can't wait to return and explore more of their enticing menu!
