Review by Carey Kuhn

HoQ Restaurant is a gem in downtown Des Moines! 🌟

I recently celebrated my anniversary here and was blown away by the service. Our server, Sarah, was attentive and knowledgeable, and the cozy ambiance set the perfect romantic tone. We indulged in a variety of small plates - the Bangladeshi Chicken on Stick and fabulous Perogies stood out. Don't miss the wine selection; it complemented our meal perfectly!

With a commitment to organic, farm-to-table dishes, every bite was delightful. It’s definitely our new date night spot. Can’t wait to return for more culinary adventures! 🍷✨
