Review by Adele Murazik

Harbinger is a hidden gem in Des Moines! 🌟 After a few attempts to visit, I finally dined in, and it was worth the wait. The salt crusted kohlrabi was intriguing, though the raspberry sauce was a bit overpowering for my taste.

However, the lamb loin was beautifully cooked, and the chickpea panisse stole the show - so soft and flavorful!

The cozy atmosphere and friendly staff added to the experience, making it a great spot for special occasions. If you're in the mood for creative New American dishes, don’t miss out on this delicious adventure! 🍽️✨
